Wry pleasant dinner! The gentleman at the counter was pleasant and helpful. Small dining room which was clean and in good condition. Large menu with lots of choices. My husband got the two hotdogs, fries, and drink special which was less than $10! I got the small Greek salad and grilled cheese on a pita. Lots of food! All of the items were hot and fresh - very flavorful. A steady stream of carry out customers came in and out - quick service. read more

(* Review is for Doggie Diner - and their prices - as a "vendor" at St. Charles Scarecrow Fest 2025). - Spent $15 ($16.20 total credit card charge) for a small 5" beef which appeared to be on one of those standard Turano rolls you can find at any grocery store. We felt raped.. Based on their regular menu prices, that same beef is about $8. So, for the fest, they gouged the price almost 100%. Uncalled for. We know they probably have to pay fees and "rent a tent" to be at festivals, so we would understand some increase, but a100% upcharge is just plain WRONG. As a family going back 3 generations, we have been giving Doggie Diner business all the way back to the late 80's - when they were originally in Carol Stream. Probably never again.... Shame on you. read more

Reasonable price and very fast,friendly service. Will come back again when in the area.

Never a dull item from this place. Cashiers are all quite great once they know you well. At this point the kitchen starts making my food when they see me walk in. Very inviting environment. I live an hour away from this location and I still go here over the other location because of the quality and care. 10/10 recommend always. Plus they got great specials read more

I was in the area and I was interested in supporting a local business. I'm glad I found this place, I've never heard of it but it's definitely more than your normal hot dog joint. This place has so much on their menu you can literally have something new every day for the next 3 months. I love that they have diner when you enter. It's a small place but the staff here is definitely friendly. It's a bit pricey but it's worth it. To keep to the Chicago name, I'm happy this place sells green river! They sell soda by the can and two liter. Definitely worth checking out. read more

I was looking for a good hotdog place. They have good hotdogs there kinda reminds me of a place in Chicago. Where are you still go to all the time good food. read more

Always good... love this place. Got a Hoagie (steak, cheese, and onions on a roll) with seasoned fries. read more

Pretty good spot for Chicago Style Hot Dogs and Burgers are even good. The fries are phenomenal. They put a little seasoning on them, I don't know what kind it is but there hot and tasty love them. Whatever you get, get fries with them!! You will not be disappointed. read more

If your looking for a cool place to stop in and have a good burger or a delicious hot dog, this is your stop, I had the burger and it was very good the hot was also good, it's a place that reminds you of that hot dog joint you used to hang out at in Chicago, great fries, a few booths, some counter spaces, I really liked it, I'm sure I'll go back and try several other items, actually I want to try the catfish dinner, I can't wait to go back, give them a try I think you will like the cozy little place read more

I'm not in here often, but when Iam service is always good and well, so is the food! Around lunch time, it's best to call your order in and pick it up. The few times, I've been I got the hot wings, but the last time I got them they were ok. Maybe I'll venture off and order something else next time...perhaps my taste buds didn't want them on that particular day. Dah well! The location is always clean and they serve Pepsi products!!!! One of my favs! read more

The only bad thing I can say is they sell Pepsi instead of Coke, which would be proper. Otherwise it was great. Very friendly staff. Excellent portions. Normal pricing. But the food was all very good. Loved the slaw. Shrimp was cooked perfectly. They have a pretty full looking menu. I'd love to try the gyros. I'm not from the area but it was good enough that I may get a taste for it and I might just end up making the 30 minute drive. Good stuff. read more

Today I give it 2 stars.... I ordered the burgers and just like the other reviews stated they were dry and hard, I'm even questioning if there 100% beef! To the owners you do have good food however you really need to do something with the burgers unfortunately it ruined my meal this evening. Disappointing read more

I do not realize how there is ANY positive reviews after eating the gyros they make. The chicken gyro meat is actually packaged slices of meat they throw on the grill and the honey mustard sauce is disgusting. looks like vasalline or mayo mixed with mustard and sugar. YUK YUK YUK. i threw out most of it. My dog would not even eat it. Also usually when you purchase a gyro dinner it comes with lots of pit and lots of meat. Not these. And the steak fries were like eating sponges filled with grease. I would have posted pics but was unable to. I advise to go down the street to Mickeys. Much better food. I used a local favor coupon for doggie diner. Now i know why they put out coupons . read more

This is not farm to table blah blah. It's righteous burger joint faire. Fresh, soft steamy bun. Vienna Beef dog. Proper food service chili. Fresh onions over the slice of American. It's a chili dog that stays in its lane and delivers exactly what you have in mind when you belly up to the counter wanting a good dog. Of course Chicago dogs too! read more

What a great place to get a good fast meal!! I eat here 1-2x a week and I like to try different things - one time, I'll get the 2 Hot Dog special; the next, a Gyros and fries. No matter what I order, the food is always hot (the fries are delicious!!) The employees behind the counter are very nice and make sure your order is the way you want it - the store itself is always very clean and while the seating is minimal, I always have a place to sit and eat my lunch. read more

Was told by my wife that Doggie Diner, there are two, in Bolingbrook and Plainfield, has a bbq rib sandwich. I had been lamenting the limited time of another rib sandwich, but no more. Doggie Diner has a rib sandwich available year round. It is bigger, meatier, with the same pickles and onions, but the Sweet Baby Rays sauce puts it over the top. Did I say huge? Big enough for two. Tremendous value! Great BBQ! Wow! read more

First visit today, I had the gyro platter. The gyro meat was delicious but it seemed like it was chopped into bits. (could have been a bit more generous with the meat...it was good.) Fries were kind of hard. Dining area is cold and uncomfortable. It does have a small tv with no sound. (Radio on instead with good music) Overall, I might have given 3 stars, but the service is friendly. (Steady traffic flow during lunch hour.) Thank you, Doggie Diner for a fantastic 2nd visit! The gyro meet was cut into nice strips, the fries were nice and warm and so was the dining area! 5 stars from me today! read more

Doggie Diner Too - Cozy atmosphere at Doggie Diner! - Diners Near Me - Bolingbrook, Illinois

I LOVE this place been going there for years it's always hot fresh & made correctly the owners are awesome & staff too

I love Doggie Diner! I grew up and lived in Bolingbrook for 20 years. I always remember Doggie Diner being a fast food staple. They have Italian beef sandwiches that rival Portillo's and I love their fries that come in a brown paper bag. My finance loves their Philly cheesesteak. They have good pizza puffs too. And they deliver! read more

I love this little place. I've picked up gyros several times in the past. The gyros plate comes with extra meat and fries. I add an extra pita and sauce and get two meals out of it. Their tzatziki sauce is perfect; there are a couple places in the area who have nasty tzatziki sauce and that kills the whole gyros. On Saturday they have a hot dog special so I tried their hot dogs last night. They are delicious and have that casing SNAP that you want in a Chicago hot dog. The hot dog was way more satisfying than Portillo's hot dogs. Their menu is humongous! Now that I've branched our from the gyros, I want to try other menu items. Italian beef will probably be next and if it's as good as the other items I've tried, their will be no reason to go to Portillo's ever again. The people behind the counter, and who answer the phone for pick up orders, are friendly and helpful. read more

Looking for simple non epicurean sustenance at fair prices, quick service and no ambiance? This is your place!!! They have daily specials and a "diner" menu that would satisfy anyone not into healthy eating. Your order is "up" quickly and correctly. The portions are substantial ( the gyros and fries can easily serve 2 normal appetites as will the 2 hot dogs and fries daily special). It is no frills and no pretense. Just good diner food at fair prices. They also deliver. read more

It was not doggone delicious. Eating area was dirty with ceiling tile missing and an inch of dust hanging off the sprinklers. Disinterested employees could care less. Save your money. Go somewhere else. read more

Great place for your food fix! Great gyros and other sandwiches! The Texas Burger is darn good too! The fries are really tasty as well. Never had a bad item from here. read more

Come over to the side. The side of this strip mall that often gets bypassed since the Food for Less shut its doors. Come to the Lily Cache side and be sure to hit up the Doggie Diner. The menu is unbelievably massive for such a tiny carryout joint. It includes, but is not limited to: Italian Beef, sausage(brats, Italian, and Polish), hot dogs, hamburgers, gyros, chicken sandwiches, subs, pizza puffs, ribs, tamale boats, chili dogs, and a ton more. I love the gyro, and one day a week , they have a 2/$8 special that comes with two gyros, fries, and drinks. Their fries are super stick thin and crispy. Pizza puffs are the frozen variety, but taste really good coming out of the deep fryer. Service is counter-style, and the guys behind the counter are funny and engaging. With so many things to try, this place definitely has a return customer with me! read more

BIG would be the feature here. Gyro platter - a decent and VERY BIG GYRO with a BIG serving of BIG fries. Not the tastiest I've had, but definitely the BIGGEST. Don't let anyone tell you giants are dead and gone... they come back as food babies from Doggie Diner Too. Too as in, plenty for Two. I will keep this review very small so as not to take away from the BIG BIGNESS at Doggie Dineroo. read more

I think I can say that I have sampled damn near everything on their menu from the time I was a sophomore in high school (2002) until now. Between my orders, sharing side orders with friends, family functions, and late night dinners - their food has NEVER been bad. My favorite thing (an unfulfilled craving I had during my pregnancy while living in Arizona) is their seasoned fries. They give you a massive portion and perfectly season them. Yum. They have Green River soda, too. Throwback. read more

I have gone to this location for many years on and off. This time the fries were cold and dry had no seasoning on them. The dogs were rubbery and soggy. read more

The owners of Doggie Diner are a wonderful family who have served Bolingbrook and the surrounding communities for decades. They care! The food is great. All the classic American style fast food... Don't you dare go there without trying the French fries! My personal favorite is the grilled chicken on pita with mozzarella cheese, lettuce, tomato and their infamous honey mustard! My husband LOVES the gyros and the beef! Also, their catering is amazing. We order Doggie Diner pastas, salads, meats for our office events and they send a TON of food for a great price, and most importantly it is delicious! read more

I am very disappointed with this restaurant and am sad to say that I will not recommend or order from this restaurant anymore. I ordered a Philly cheese steak with extra cheese. Unfortunately I received a regular Philly cheese steak but paid extra for the extra cheese. I frequent this place quite a bit so I called. The lady who answered the phone did not sound like the usual person I speak to. She asked the cook how many slices he put on the sandwich and he said 5. I told her 5 is not on this sandwich. She told me to wrap it up and they would come get it and make another order. I would have to wait and I am on my lunch hour. She never once apologized for the issue and seemed to be annoyed. Pic included. Does this look like 5 pieces of Cheese? Why would I lie? I paid $17 for the sandwich and. 20fl Oz pop.. Pictures were added to FB post read more

I ordered the Cheeseburger and a friend ordered a hotdog. The cheeseburger did not have a typical taste. Typically a cheeseburger will attempt to fill me up. This one tasted more like a veggie burger, very light, little flavor, and not filling at all. The hotdog also did not taste typical. It was undercooked, and left you wondering what was in it - pork, beef, or what? I've had doggie diner at other locations before and I don't recall it being this bad. I would spend my money elsewhere in the area, there are many other better options. The only reason I am inclined to go back is because I have a groupon. read more

This place is awesome. I never really cared for the one on Janes Avenue in Woodridge but I have lived in Bolingbrook for about 6 months now and just tried it the other night. Not sure of the gentlemen at the front taking orders but he was so friendly and funny. Great guy... as I waited for my take out food he offered for me to try there homemade meatballs. They were sooo good! Filled with flavor and rosemary. Mmm so tasty. The food was delicious and the guy working in the front was awesome. Very funny, super nice and the food was a very tasty! I will definitely be back and hope every experience is like the first one! Two people : One beef, One Cheeseburger, One Large Fry (IT was HUGE!!!! So many fries haha and one onion ring... only $13.00 read more

Pretty decent greasy spoon. Clientele is a little sketchy but its par for the area. Good luck getting a seat during lunch time. I usually go for the gryo, fries, and a green river. Good stuff. Edit 2/25/16 - No more green river? That should make it lose a star, but I will restrain myself. Bogus though. Bogus. Edit 10/13/17 - GREEN RIVER IS BACK BABY! read more

As I sit here burping up the aftermath of your Tzatziki AKA cucumber sauce AKA Gyro sauce is flat out disgusting! Is that why you call it Homemade sauce? Maybe because you can't figure it out? Then don't serve Gyros! That's a slap in traditions face especially when you create like 5 different types of gyros sandwiches to make. Theres only 1. Good god just stick to hot dogs and hamburgers. read more

This is the second Doggie Diner. The first one is in Woodridge, and I've been a fan since I was a kid. This is my go-to place. Don't get me wrong, they're not going to win any awards for fine cuisine any time soon, but if you're looking for a meal that can fit in a brown paper bag with a little bit of grease, then this is the place. The menu is huge. You can get hot dogs, hamburger, subs, gyros, meatball subs, philly cheese steaks and many other sandwiches here. They have a bunch of different fried potato options like french fries, steak fries, greek fries, etc. Even their salads are pretty good. The best thing is that they are usually pretty fast even when busy, and they have very reasonable daily specials. read more

So far... I hold the Doggie Diner Too's gyro up as the example I rate all others against. I have yet to find a better gyro in this area. We get the gyro platter... it is so large, that I usually get an extra pita or two and extra cucumber sauce and make 2 gyros out of the platter. I love this place. The staff is friendly and courteous. LOL.. they had a hand written sign that said something like this: "If your pants are hanging down to your knees, you will not be served". This place is what I might call a "hole in the wall" type of place.. there are a few tables inside... I have always been able to get a table when I have went Highly recommend. read more

Huge portions! Fries are delicious don't let the shoe string size of the fries fool you they're quite tasty. I've only had the three meat sub and fries from here so I can only speak and rate on that read more

NOT WEARING MASK! & Bad customer service. I ordered my grandma a small fried mushroom & it wasn't even mushrooms on the inside! Only breading! My Italian beef tasted like a beef out of the tub! ONLY THING GOOD WAS THE PEACH CRUSH! I should've made this myself!!! read more

This establishment is a wanna be chick-fil-a #closedonsundays.The food is inconsistent the cooks on the weekend are terrible. The food is over priced the fries are cold overly salted and so is the gyros. They are not following the state guidelines, by not wearing a masks. The outdoor environment is not the best but they really can't change that. They don't they don't have the ideal service for our current situation like curbside services read more
