Doggos Gus was absolutely outstanding! From the initial booking process to the day of our event, everything was smooth, professional and stress-free. David was incredibly friendly, personable and a pleasure to have at our party. Our entire family and all of our guests loved him. The food was delicious! The hot dogs were fantastic, the elote was a huge hit and the horchata was refreshing and flavorful. The smell of the food cooking had everyone excited and gathering around the cart before it was even time to eat. David stayed engaged with our guests, kept everything running smoothly and made the experience feel special. We received so many compliments on the food and everyone left happy and full. I highly recommend Doggos Gus and David for any event, big or small. Great food, great service and an overall amazing experience. We would absolutely book him again! read more

Doggos Gus - Hot Dogs Near Me - San Diego, California

Love this place! We were in a hot dog mood and decided to stop by. This is more of a stand with a patio for you to eat at! We ordered four hot dogs, corn, and fries. It's very much self service here, you order either at a tablet or through your phone via QR code. We got a Mac and cheese dog, chili dog, SDfoodie dog, and the California. Along with the corn and cheese fries. I had the chili dog which is delicious and the California which I loved! The hot dogs are great quality and so good! I also love the cheese and fries, soooo tasty. The bun was a little big for me, but my fiancee loved it. It was a large brioche bun that was toasted nicely. The prices were around 9-11 for a dog which isn't horrible. If your in the mood for a fun and filling hot dog, this is a great choice! read more

I enjoyed Doggos Gus back when it was a pop-up business located inside a University Heights neighborhood bar. I even remember when it was a participating vendor at a now defunct local food festival. Their current location is a corner shack in the East Village section of downtown next to The Church by The Lost Abbey. Everything in this area involved curbside metered parking or a paid surface lot. The shack was part of a large courtyard with multiple picnic tables for seating. Cornhole boards and a flat screen TV were set up for entertainment. You order using a tablet next to the service window. The menu used to be strictly bacon-wrapped hot dogs (i.e. Sonoran style). It has now expanded to include burgers, sides, appetizers, and desserts. A fountain station had dispensers for sodas, lemonade, and agua frescas. The hot dogs were divided into two sections, Classic and Signature. I selected two of the classics for my takeout order. The first was a Baja (grilled onions, pico, chipotle, avocado crema) and the second was a TJ Style (grilled onions, tomatoes, mayo, mustard, ketchup). The sweet bun used to hold everything resembled that used for a lobster roll. The flavor combinations were hearty and not spicy which was what I preferred. The grilled onions added some char and texture to the jumbo beef hot dogs. What has changed significantly over time were the prices. Each of my choices cost $8.99. Some of the other varieties were as high as $12 which is insane for a loaded hot dog. I did appreciate the bacon wrapping to the franks, but I can't see myself coming to East Village that often for these products because there are plenty of diverse dining options that are more satisfying in this part of downtown. read more

They're apparently a hotdog place but I go here exclusively for the burgers. This is my little local's secret. Best burgers in town. I go back once or twice a week. I recommend the Holy Wagyu or the San Diego Jam. read more

Came here for our first time cause we live down the street and this place has great reviews. It's a cute little place to sit outside on a sunny day. You order by yourself on the little pad outside which is great. After we ordered our food was ready almost right away. We ordered the chilli cheese dog and Sonoran dog. I don't know what I was expecting but I thought the hot dog I was going to get would be better quality hot dogs. It literally tasted like the hot dogs you just go buy at the grocery store. Nothing special and they're actually small if you don't get the jumbo dog. There's a lot of ingredients on your hot dog so your bread gets soggy fast. I think if you're craving a hot dog it's a good place to come. Maybe we'll try something with less ingredients and jumbo hot dog for a better experience next time. read more

When is the last time you had a chili cheese dog? Hmmm.... High school? That's a long time ago!! Found ourselves in the neighborhood and decided to stop in for a "little snack" the hot dogs are large enough to be cut in half if you're looking for a snack. However, who are we kidding you should get the whole hot dog. The chili cheese dog was delicious, the chili cheese was very flavorful and made to perfection. Also, ordered the street corn, it was ok. I would definitely skip next time. The service is quick and efficient. You order online and they call your name for pickup at the window. The ambiance on a Sunday afternoon was surprisingly quiet a few tables were taken one with a larger group who was strictly there to eat and another group of four, drinking an soaking board games. As we were leaving a couple small families walked in with young kiddos. The brewery does a nice job of keeping some activities available to keep them entertained. Great experience. Great Hot Dogs! Bonus: located on Lost Abbye's brewery backyard. read more

Quick service, delicious eats and so nice it's all outdoor seating. The sd foodie dog hit the spot, it was the right amount of sweet and savory which I never knew was possible for a hot dog.

Seen this place on Yelp, decided to try it with my friend. Ordered the chili cheese dog and my friend got a burger and we got the cheese fries. The food was absolutely delicious! I loved that it was outside and lots of area to move around and so forth. The reason I'm giving it 4 stars is because there are signs that say no smoking or vaping yet another group of people had a person vaping and the employees seen and did nothing. Even with the smoke blowing in their face after the wind hit it. But the food was delicious. I will be back read more

Perfect spot for sitting outside enjoying our perfect weather. Grab a beer from the brewery then head outside and order up. The Baja dog is my favorite, but have tried and enjoyed quite a few others. Don't forget the churros. Not only are the dogs the best in town, the churros are as well. read more

We happened to come here looking for a snack. We thought we ended up at the wrong place since we didn't see Doggos right away, but what appeared to be a small church which ended up being the Lost Abbey! Doggos is located to the side and back of the outdoor seating area. It was early when we stopped by and no one was around. Simple menu, we ordered the Jumbo California doggo and Doggos fries to share which was more than enough for a snack! The California doggo was delicious! The Doggos fries were fully loaded with cheese, crema, bacon and hot dog bits! I really wanted a milkshake, but it was off the menu for now since they didn't have extra staff to cook and make milkshakes which was a bummer. Staff was friendly. The outdoor seating seemed chill, with picnic style seating. It was a little cold so we took our order Togo. Overall it was better than I was expecting! Thanks for a delicious Doggo! read more

Nice outdoor seating in downtown San Diego with a fancy hotdog in one hand and a cold beer in the other, can't get better than that! (+) Service was great and owner was very friendly. Positive vibes all around. Fast casual style: order via QR code or counter at the front. (+) Both the Lost Abbey and Carnitas dog were surprisingly tasty (coming from someone who never gets hotdogs on their own). The smashburger was crisp and had the perfect amount of sauce. Both buns were SUPER soft. Dog friendly area and great vibes. Would definitely come back for a quick bite. read more

Doggos Gus is an outdoor patio area in East Village that serves specialty Mexican flavored Bacon Wrapped hot dogs along with some other side items. There is picnic table seating available outside and you can also eat inside at the neighboring bar. To order you go up to a device rather than order from a live person. While I can appreciate that it cuts down on overhead expenses to make people order on devices rather than a live person, to me it was a little bit off putting and made the experience less personal. After placing the order they will text you when it is ready and you go to the pickup window. The dogs themselves were really tasty even if they were somewhat expensive given that its a hot dog, specialty or not. We ordered an Ayyyy Weyyy and a California. The California comes with fries on the hot dog itself. Hot dogs are served in a basket with a side of ketchup. It took about seven minutes to receive the text that they were ready. There is no parking lot here given it's in East Village so you either have to look for street parking (limited). I would recommend taking a ride share, trolley or walking here if you'd like to go. I took a star off due to the impersonal service. read more

Alright so I've had a couple of their dogs before at their old place, and I "thought" I had reviewed them but.... Lol So, I've been wanting to try their smash burger... YUM!! It definitely didn't disappoint!! Cooked perfectly with just the right amount of "char" yet steamy and tasty! Their surf & turf Doggo is right up there in taste, along with their Nacho fries and Churros dessert that rivals stand alone churro vendors! The service was great, food came out QUICKLY and they're in the same awesome outdoor seating lot as The Lost Abbey Church Brewery.... Which makes this and that a Heavenly experience!!!! read more

Doggos has a creative menu where hot dogs are at the center. And let me tell you they make some really tasty dogs. I ordered the surf and turf dog and it was delicious. It had three decent size shrimp that were season and cooked wonderfully. You can order your dog regular or jumbo and it makes a size difference when it comes to the weenie. I especially love the bun they use to hold everything together. Overall it was an amazing hot dog. The service is fast and friendly. This is an outside seating only restaurant so keep that in mind. Overall amazing food and great service. The only negative thing was if you use the self service kiosk to order. It automatically adds a %15 gratuity fee to your order and it's somewhat tricky to remove it. read more

Another 5 star place that has just recently closed their storefront. Saddened to hear this. They have some of the best hot dogs ever created. Well-known for years and present at several Yelp events, they are strictly catering now. They were even catered to my work once, and people raved about them for a week! They could possibly be opening another storefront later. They have always been super friendly, and the product is top notch. They are operating at a few farmer's markets around town, namely the Ocean Beach on Wednesdays from 4-8p. I suggest you give them a try, they offer veggie dogs too. The website has detailed info on the farmer's market locations, as well as the menu to check out. One thing I never got to try was the micheladas they had at the storefront, now I can't! Apparently the building was bought to erect some high rise condos. Greedy property owners/ developers at work again. It was such a convenient, cool spot next to Luigi's Pizzeria in this southernmost beach town. Keep your head up Doggos Gus, I see a bright future for you. read more

After grabbing some beers at the Abbey, we grabbed some dogs and dug in. The food comes up pretty quickly and it is customizable to just how you want it.

Shout out to Doggus Gus! I Had them come out for a Baby Q. They showed up on time in the pouring rain. Set up and started cooking. Everyone loved there smash burgers and hot dogs they also had lots of condiments and toppings. My guest are still talking about the food. They were very friendly and did a amazing job. I didn't have to do anything. I was very happy with the price that fed 70 people. if I need BBQ food for a event in the future I will be calling them. Thank you again. Kim read more

These guys are out of this world! They share a space with the Lost Abbey Brewery, next door, and the combination of the amazing beer and what may be the best burger I've ever eaten is sublime. Owner, Gustavo, is often there and as welcoming as one can be. Sergio is a master of the grill. Aside from the excellent food, the always friendly staff (in both spots) makes this a place worth visiting. The food is affordable, the outdoor space adorable. We love the Surf & Turf dog, the Carnitas Dog and, when we're feeling like a real treat, the aforementioned Wagyu Burger is not to be believed. The Doggo nachos (which I don't see on their online menu, but are always available) are a great plate to share. If you're craving a dog for the ballgame, skip the stadium and head to Doggos. If you're lucky enough to be local, make this place a regular haunt! You won't be disappointed! read more

Parking was really rough in east village at 8pm, not sure if there was a padre's game that evening or what but we didn't want to park in the sketchy side of east village so it took about 30min to find parking a block away. Food ordering was very easy and simple through their little iPad, and came out rather quickly for how much we ordered. Price was a bit on the high side, but the place had a cute ambiance and strong lights that made it feel cozy. Food-wise, we felt it could be better. The dogs were stuffed with toppings but the bottom of our buns were all soggy and made it rather disappointing/a mess. Overall a cute place, but probably not one I'd return to unless I lived in the area due to the challenge just to get the food read more

Ok let me preface with: I will be back...however....I ordered the Baja Dog and it barely had anything on it. In fact, the cup of elote weighed more than my dog and that was even 1/2 way full because it fell over in the car. Negative 1 star for no cover for the elote...it fell over and 1/2 spilled out on the floor. I was hella sad cuz it looked delicious. The Baja Dog was pretty good but lacked any crispy cheese or condiments. My order was "to go" so maybe the lack of toppings was the reason. I've seen posts of crispy cheese and more toppings on dogs and mi e had neither. I was disappointed but it did taste good. I will be back but will eat there. read more

I ordered only vegan food here, we got the impossible smash burger and hot dog. The burger tasted soo good! It was crispy and juicy, I really liked the sauce. The vegan hot dog was a bit dry and the toppings were a bit lackluster. We also got the loaded fries without the pork on it. The fries were really good, we enjoyed the cheese alot! The highlight was dessert, which we got the churros. They were freshly made and had a light cream on the inside, they were to die for! Our only regret was not getting then with the ice cream. The seating is all outdoors, which was nice since we were there on a warm summer day! The service was pretty fast with getting the food out too. Lost abbey is right there too, which has a bunch of great beers! read more
