Buyer beware!!! Over the last several months we have noticed a dip in food quality. But what happened Saturday 4/5/25 isn't a "dip". We were in a pinch and needed a meal. We stopped in and were met by a very friendly bartender/order taker/host (Down grade) He places our orders and sat. Our food came pretty quickly. Bratwurst, Old Town and Burger. We had all taken several bites when my son eating the burger spat out a mouth full of burger laden staples. You read that right STAPLES! We got the attention of a worker she came and swept it away and said she would comp the burger. Hello, a very serious health issue had arrived! We asked to speak to a manager. Several minutes later we noticed a guy walking around speaking to all the patrons. Finally he approached us. He was an employee not a manager. He said he'd get a new burger but as you can imagine we were done. He dropped the managers cards and some discount cards and said he'd comp the meal. Which he did. This was a horrifying experience and the guy admitted that the burger patty was made in the kitchen and that the cook had been using a stapler. So egregious and dangerous. To say the least we will not be returning to this restaurant. read more

I love this place it was my first time to try and it was soo good. I love how they used Hawaiian rolls as their main bread coz it balances the flavor of acidity and saltiness from the hotdog itself. I would say the place was a bit dirty I didn't see anyone cleaning tables or wiping drink station area. No one checks on customers I guess it's not one of those places. But overall, its was good and yummy! read more

We came here last night and I am not impressed. The food was okay at best. It was very greasy, which is expected at a burger place, but it left me and my partner feeling sick, and well into the next day he's still not feeling good. Music was very loud and it was hard to make conversation with each other. Service was okay, feeling very rushed when I ordered but overall not bad. Would not come here again. read more

Dog Haus Pasadena is hands down one of my favorite spots for a next-level hot dog (and more). If you think hot dogs can't be fancy, think again. These are gourmet, over-the-top creations packed with flavor. I had the Sooo Cali, and wow--avocado, spicy basil aioli, crispy onions? YES. Every bite was indulgent but still balanced. The King's Hawaiian rolls they use for buns are a genius move--slightly sweet, super soft, and they tie the whole thing together. The vibe is fun and laid-back, perfect for a chill lunch or late-night bite. Tons of beer on tap too if you're looking to pair your meal with something cold. Service was quick and friendly, even during a busy hour. Prices are reasonable for what you're getting, and they've got great vegetarian options too. 10/10 would recommend if you're craving something bold, creative, and totally satisfying. read more

Great selection of beers! There's a huge list of them so there's definitely one you can try. The fries are so delicious! They're very crispy and pair really well with the aioli sauce. This place can get pretty busy but there's a fair amount of seating here. It's meant to be like a bar with some tables inside and outside and counter spaces. read more

Order when to the wrong location. They have two in Pasadena. Staff was unable or unwilling to transfer the order to the location we were at and would not or could not change the order from pickup to delivery, even for a fee. The distance between the two locations is close, but not reasonably walkable (an hour round trip) requiring taking an Uber (twice once there and once back). Turned out to be a very expensive lunch, all due to extremely poor customer service. read more

Fun place with great options for sausage, hot dogs and brews! We appreciate the fact that they are open later and were able to serve us food when other establishments were closed. read more

One of the prettiest Dog Haus's I've been to for sure. The surroundings are so nice and they have plentiful outdoor seating. It's located right in Old Town Pasadena, so it's perfect to walk around after eating and shop, thrift, or dine some more. Dog Haus is always a treat for me and my family; their hotdogs are super elaborate and VERY filling, but also very high quality as well. I ordered the So Cali and Free Bird without avocados and the tatertots. Dog Haus has a lot of options for their hotdogs, so sometimes I find it a bit overwhelming, especially since I'm pretty picky so it's hard to find one that suits exactly my taste. However, I still like to try their different options and experiment with different flavors, which are all assembled very nicely. The exterior and convenience of this Dog Haus, as well as the high quality meat and ingredients they use in their hotdogs is definitely a recommendation for anyone to visit if they can! read more

This place is Awesome! The food is great, the service amazing, the vibe chill and exciting. I love watching games here on the weekend, and I'm renting out the patio for a business meeting. So glad it's finally here in Santa Clarita! read more

You can never really go wrong with Dog Haus! Come in hungry and leave overly stuffed :) I have gotten a couple of their hot dogs on the menu in the past and have never been disappointed. I also love that they make them all on Hawaiian rolls - the sweetness is perfect and balances out all the salty from the hot dog and fixin's on top. This location also has a nice spacious patio for when the weather is good. Inside they have a bar as well as a couple of board games which makes it a great spot to hangout with a group of friends. read more

I love going here because the food is delicious and the vibes are good. The restaurant itself is somewhat hidden from the street which makes for nice outdoor seating. The inside seating is also very pleasant. The place is almost never crowded. The staff is very easy going and nice. All of the burgers and hot dogs I've tried are very good. You really can't go wrong. The Hawaiian rolls as buns makes eating them very very easy. I always eat very fast here lol. read more

The All Beef MINI Corn Dog is pretty epic, Root Beer batter is a nice touch. The Impossible Slider is pretty darn good, with White Mayo, American Cheese and caramelized Onions, great flavor combos. The Bad Mutha Clucka crispy fried with Miso Ranch and Pickles, so good, I love crispy fried chicken and they do it very well here. Everytime I'm here it's always so amazing, great flavors and nice ambience. read more

Dog Haus is the place to be during Happy Hour. I am amazed by the prices. It's so affordable to have a good time - especially during these inflationary times. I got 2 fries, slider and sausage - coming up to be about $13. A big shout out to the fries. So crispy, so good. It sounds so lame to brag about fries since it's probably just frozen fries that are thrown into a fryer, but I have had my fair share of disappointing fries. They have a wide range of beers, but I couldn't tell you much since I do not drink. Dog Haus also host a running group on Tuesdays. I hope to attend one of these days to get a free shirt. read more

Who hasn't been to a Dog Haus before?!! It was my first time here and it's probably the biggest in the area with an actual beer garden. There's a great options of wings, slides, sausages, burgers and more. My fave is the chli dog because I love chili. The staff is great and I felt very welcomed while here. read more

Dog Haus Biergarten - Old Pasadena - HH. - New American Near Me - Pasadena, California

3.5 stars. Came here on a Saturday evening. Not crowded easy to find seating. Your order food and then they give you a number and bring it to your table. Typical bar type food with some creative twists. The hot dog was good, the chicken strips were fresh and pretty good size. The onion rings were also hot and fresh and I liked their breading. The burger bun on the Hawaiian bread wasn't to my liking and it felt real heavy like it needed some veggies in it. Overall the food was ok if you are in the mood for hotdogs/burger fried foods. The mixed drink I tried was pretty good. Service was ok they forgot to bring us extra ranch we had to ask twice for it. Prices are what you get for so not too bad. Overall it was good to try out but would probably only come back to share a plate not for full meal. read more

Cool spot located in an alley just a few feet away from Colorado Blvd aka Oldtown Pasadena. Staff was friendly; vibe was cavernlike, dark and chill. Full bar (nice), but the strawberry sour I had was meh. Pretty expansive menu for those not on a diet. The burrito called out to me, but I only got through half. The tots were too fried, and the oil tasted somewhat stale. My son got a burger and fries. Those were better. $50 for a cocktail, fountain beverage, double burger, burrito and fries. I don't think I'll do it again, but the spot was cute. Looks like they have game night/trivia on Monday nights and host a run club on Tuesdays. Metered parking along Green St or there's a lot nearby- $1 for 2 hours. read more

Fast service even with a huge line. Sausages are what they are. Huge selection. Moderate price.

What's going on everyone? I just wanted to say that I been here a few times with Meetup Friends and always a good time. Even though it's been a while. But I remembered the first time and second time that I visited this location and I ordered the impossible burger with regular fries and drink. I really enjoyed it. After haveing the impossible burger, fries and drinks twice in a row. I decided to switch up to Chicken Tenders with regular fries and drink. I have to say that I enjoyed that a lot more. I have to say the people that work here are super nice and friendly. One of my favorite places to visit at Old Town Pasadena. Till next time. Take care, stay safe and healthy. Best, David read more

Used to come to this place all the time before COVID. And I am so glad this business didn't shut down. Love sitting outdoors and the food here is great.

Dog Haus caters towards a large audience with their crazy hot dog creations, vegetarian alternatives and 24 beer options. I just wished their cocktails and cleanliness fared better. Street parking was limited and keep an eye on a small neon "Dog Haus" sign. We walked through the outdoor tables into the main dining room where they were only taking order at the bar. The man out front was incredibly friendly and he was manning orders and drinks all by himself. However, he had a difficult time making the drink and had to flip through pages of recipes slowly so the quality was questionable. Food came out in under 10 minutes. =YUM= Hawaiian rolls were fluffy and slightly toasted. Loved the sweetness that contrasted with the hot dog's saltiness. *Onion Rings: decent portion and came out crispy. Batter wasn't too heavy or oily and each bite didn't separate the onion from the exterior. Slightly sweet. *Sooo Cali: although I wasn't blown away by any of their other sauces, the spicy basil aioli was top tier. Added a bright herby quality that all the hot dogs needed. A lighter option with fresh tomatoes, avocado and arugula. *Chili the Kid: favorite dog combination. Despite not being smothered in chili, the flavors were concentrated. Fragrant spices mixed the salty dog and crispy onions. The chipotle aioli added creaminess but most of the flavor came from the chili. =MEH= *Cowboy: classic dog flavors with sweet and cold barbecue sauce. The bacon, cheese sauce and onions had the same soft mouthfeel. Not bad if you want something average. *Gin N Juice: predominantly soda water. Mild raspberry presence but the grapefruit and hibiscus was non existent. *Miso Ranch: very thin and salty. Couldn't taste the miso and it was too runny. Cleanliness was a huge issue. During our whole dining experience, none of the tables were wiped down once. Since there wasn't any contact with staff members after getting our food, I doubt our table got cleaned after we left either. The hotdogs were above average but the dine in experience was subpar so I suggest doing take out instead. read more

The fries were a winner! We celebrated Fathers day at Dog Haus on a saturday and brought the kiddo with us. We parked at the structure across the street west of Doghaus (before Raymund) - only $1 for 2 hours. The entrance was by an alley on Green st. The inside was typical looking of a gastropub, and seems you order at the counter like actual fastfood. I had the Holy Aoili burger which i scarfed down quick and my husband got the Downtown hotdog. I got a sliders meal for the little guy with a ton of fries and drink. I also got the Doghaus beer for myself. All for under $50. The food came out fast, it was practically like you were eating at a fastfood joint - with an almost gourmet twist. I loved my Aoili burger, it had a ton of mayonnaise and grilled onions. Their burger bun is basically 6 pcs of Kings Hawaiian so the overall flavor is on the sweet side, but i loved it. Their Doghaus own brew is a blonde, very similar to a Stella Artois. Very light and safe-tasting. All in all a great meal, cheap, and quick. A great place for hanging out with the gang (plus you can each order at the bar and splitting wont be an issue) . By the way, we had to order another serving of fries. It was that good! If you have a large appetite, you might want to add some to your hotdog or burger order! read more

Came here on a Sunday around 5 PM, and there was no parking! We parked at the 15 minutes meter to order then my husband had to go repark the car which took awhile. They also have happy hour. This Burger ($3.99 HH): This burger came with cheese, mayo, & caramelized onions but it was really good. The buns were toasted nicely but the patty was the real star of the show. It was juicy and flavorful which was complimented by the onions & buns. Tater Tots ($1.49 HH): The tots were very crunchy and remained so no longer how long you leave them. Downtown Hot Dog ($8.99): This was really good but a big small. The buns were soft, the hot dog was tasty but the bacon was a bit burnt, & the toppings elevated the flavors of the hot dog. Tequila Thyme ($12): This wasn't bad but definitely not bar standards. They probably used bottom shelf tequila too since we got a tiny headache later on. First Kiss ($10): This was served in a pitcher like bottle and was watered down. You can taste the white wine which was bad & gave us a stomachache. Let's just say we were in the restroom a lot and burping it out so avoid the drinks here at all cost! read more

I've always had a very boring relationship w hotdogs, if they were at a barbecue I'd eat them but I would never seek them out... that changed when I was introduced to dog haus in highschool! I always bring all my friends/family here and always forget to write a review. They have the yummiest hotdogs (veggie option is equally as YUM) and they all come on a Hawaiian bread bun. It's fun, messy, and SO delicious w such great textures. My favorite to get is the SOOO VEGGIE :-) perfect comfort food. They also are pet friendly and have huge screens to watch any games going on. Also if you're a fan of beer they've got a lot. TLDR: AMAZING hotdogs on toasty Hawaiian bread buns!! Veggie options are yum (my fav is SOOO veggie)! Beer and sports games on tvs available!! Pet friendly read more

I am very happy to report that the Dog Haus has greatly improved since my last visit here. They not only expanded their menu to include lots more vegan options for my husband, but they've aptly reintroduced a properly sized burger utilizing 4 Hawaiian rolls versus one roll during my first visit. I added pastrami to my burger and it was divine. The bartender took our order, while tending to customers sitting at the bar, and gave us a number to take to our table. Food came out fairly quick and everything was tasty including the sour beer they had on tap. There is not a lot of dining space inside so I suggest you get there early before it gets too crowded. read more

Big hot dog fan here. Been to a few Dog Haus locations and have always enjoyed the meal. This Dog Haus is located in a cool, older section of Pasadena and has the special 'Biergarten' feature - this offers patrons a great variety of cold beers in a festive environment. Got a Dog Haus Blonde and a Goldie Lager, crisp, smooth and refreshing. The chili dog, onion rings and cole slaw tasted great, all freshly house-made and delicious. Super-friendly manager and servers made sure we were happy. Great crowd mix of college kids and mature folks. read more

I've tried a couple of different Dog Haus restaurant's and all have had the same menu and been very consistent.

The hot dog does not get enough Love here in Los Angeles but hopefully if more people come here, that will change. If you want a classic dog or something unusual, they have it all. Both items we ordered were super delicious, and the tater tots were hot and crunchy. There's several other items on the menu that I tried and it back and try. Excellent friendly staff and a full bar!! I'm not someone that drinks beer so it's nice to have other options when you go to a place. read more

Dog Haus Biergarten - Old Pasadena - 2 brauts and a chorizo dog with a side of tots - New American Near Me - Pasadena, California

The food is delicious and the environment is like what you'd see in a normal Bar & Grill. You can even bring your pets inside too!

I went in for a bite to eat a little after lunch time there was hardly anyone there on a Saturday when old town is very busy. Employee seemed like he was just there, didn't upsell. Got the hot dog with chili and a side of tots. Hot dog seemed a little odd and now hours after eating it I have a strange aftertaste in my mouth. I was just visiting from out of town but if this is your favorite spot you know why and if you're not sure you may want to think twice. read more

I only came here for a drink so I can't speak to the food, but I really enjoyed the chill vibes at this biergarten. There's plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors. My friend and I were looking for a spot to grab a drink and leisurely chat around 4 pm on a Sunday, and all the shaded outdoor seating here caught our eye as we walked by. I went with a glass of the frozen margarita ($8) which was delicious and exactly what I needed to cool down on a hot summer day. I definitely want to come back and try the food here sometime! It's a lot of hot dogs and sausages (as you'd expect), with some burgers as well. read more

Dog Haus - a great place for a refreshing beer and a delicious hot dog or slider or burger and of course a side of fries. We enjoy coming here as a couple, or we bring our friends to relax and chat. There are also screens set up if you want to watch the game. COVID adjustments and environment: (June 2021) Currently outdoor dining is available, and the set up is great. Tables are separated under a covered "deck" area, and also set up in the walkway if you want some more sun or air. There are string lights set up too, so it looks very inviting with the benches and tables available. Walk in, then around right up to the bar area to order your food and drinks; you get a number that you can bring to your table if you are dining on the premises. Food and drink: Always satisfying and indulgent. This is where you go when you want to satisfy a craving! The hot dogs and burgers are all served on King's Hawaiian buns, which are soft and fluffy and lightly sweet. The tater tots (loaded if you're very hungry!) are always crispy and great to share. For hot dogs, we love the bacon-wrapped choices: my usual is the OLD TOWN as I love pickled jalapenos. If you've got more a taste for sweet bbq sauce like my partner, COWBOY has that for you, otherwise DOWNTOWN is your classic bet. For burgers, we've got four of those King's Hawaiian buns, split and sandwiching your choice of filling. I love the HOLY AIOLI (bacon and caramelized onions finished with garlic aioli), as I think it's the perfect savory foil to the sweet and light buns. If you like huge crispy onion rings slathered in BBQ sauce, THE RINGER is your bet. For drinks, there is a literal wall filled with the beers on tap that day next to the cashier for you to peruse! The style, ABV, name, are all summarized there for you. We like a strong IPA lately but there are many hazy IPAs, pilsners, ales, sours, ciders, and more for you to choose from. Getting there / Parking: A wonderful spot in Pasadena where it's not too crowded, so you've got a good chance finding parking on the street or, in a nearby garage; the Schoolhouse Garage at 33 E Green St has the first 90 minutes free and is only a block and a half away. Final thoughts: A great Pasadena establishment, easy to unwind and relax with friends or without, awesome selection of drinks to go with your dog or burger, and of course the friendly staff. We come back a lot and bring our friends too when we want to hang out in a casual, hip setting. read more

Came here for a running event so it was super crowded and busy! Casual vibes, where you order at the counter and find your own seat (only one cash register, so it can be very slow on a busy day). You have the choice of sitting inside or outside. Can be noisy and crowded but it fits the ambiance. Food was good and had lots of flavor; portion size is decent for a reasonable price. They have a huge cocktail menu with lots of fun drinks that I want to come back for. They also have an extensive breakfast menu that I want to try out too! read more

Bait and switch? Well not happy campers as we were going to make it a "covid date night m" and "celebrate" with the comp dog promo and add on more items to make it a complete dinner. But when we opened the app, the reward disappeared today 10/20 when it should be valid for through 10/20 -- I would think I dreamt it all except I did take a screenshot. Also called the restaurant but all the guy could say is "come in and he can try and scan the app but likely won't work if the reward disappeared from the app." Oh well. Not cool getting tricked like this. App deleted. Move on. Next! read more

Love coming to this place as it's a great spot to start your night in Old Town. My go-to is the Das Brat but the seasonal ones also work really well. They have an impressive tap list for a place known primarily for their dogs. They have a ton of TVs all around if you're trying to watch the game as well. As for the spot itself it rolls out into a little alley so you're off the street. The outdoor seating has tons of shade and this place is super pet friendly. Frankly it's pretty friendly to everyone as they put on a lot of local events and work with groups in the area. I know they had (maybe still do) an astronomy night on the first Monday of the Month with Caltech. They also partner with adult league teams, some pet groups and some running clubs. The only knock I'd say is for how big the place is they probably need more bathrooms. read more
