Stopped in over the weekend. Very clean and family friendly. Had the hot dog special (mustard, relish, onions, celery salt). Really good My workers had double hamburgers and the Italian Beef that looked fantastic. The owner made it a point to introduce himself and was a great guy. Service was excellent Letting everyone know about this place. read more

Haven't been here in a long time and it has slipped a bit. Now right up front I have to say the food was good ... as good as it always has been. So that part didn't slip. But the cleanliness in the little dining room has. The tabletops were sticky, and the floor was sticky ... every time you picked your foot up you'd hear it make a little sucking sound. The garbage can in the room was also very dirty ... push the opening to place your garbage in there and you see the crusties on the lip. Service was nice, but they have a rough place to work. The windows could have used a little Windex. And as an aside, the windows are so dark you never know if the store is open or closed when you drive by. So in sum ... they lose a star. Good food in need of a clean setting. read more

I can't even count how many times I have been here. But I do know how many times I have actually eaten there. The place is usually closed. They have odd hours and don't even follow those. Its under new ownership but without change or improvement. What fast food place closes at 4:00 PM on Saturday? Before the dinner hour? Anyhow. their hot dogs are OK. But up the street there is a better place with lower prices. So it a no here for dogs. I will try a few other menu items if I can ever catch them when they are actually open. read more

Don's Hot Dogs - the outside of a restaurant - Burgers Near Me - Orland Park, Illinois

I wanted a gyro sandwich but was told they had no gyro's when I went here, so I ended up just ordering a 10 piece chicken nugget with honey mustard, regular fry, and regular drink, the total price for this basic meal? $15.14! I feel that's very steep for a basic fast food meal. Then when I went to fill my drink no ice came out of the dispenser, the worker had to come and unclog the machine for it to work, then I went to get ketchup, the ketchup dispenser is messed up so I had to ask the cook to put ketchup in a cup for me, then I get told more bad news... No honey mustard for $15.14 this is a whole lot of stuff going wrong lol.. The floor were so sticky it was making a stuck noise every-time I'd lift my feet. The chicken nuggets were pretty hard, the chicken inside was very hard also, the breading tasted a little fishy maybe it was cooked in the same oil as the shrimp/fish? The french fries were the highlight of this whole experience, the 2 girls working were nice, but yeah I would never come here again. read more

Decent dogs I guess. It's that Jrs or Widens non-beef style. Different but I enjoy it. The owner? Was weird tho. I ordered fries. I didn't get fries. When I asked for them he muttered something then went and and basically threw them at the counter at me like I'm being an inconvenience or unreasonable. Wtf. Weird. Go to Joeys instead. read more

Last two visits I ordered cheese dogs. Honestly thought they forgot the cheese. I didn't see it nor taste it. Grilled chicken sandwich was ok. Jurrito crunch wasn't great. Chips tasted stale and had way to much onion. Last visit I ordered using their online system. 2 cheese dogs. Got home only had one. Called to let them know. I could come back to get it but food would then be cold. Spoke to a "manager" and he said he would give me a free one next visit. Well I already paid for one I didn't get. So I said that. Before I thought we had come to a resolution he hung up. read more

Brings back childhood memories of the old Jr.'s hot dogs, it's exactly the same and sooooo good. Literally the best cheese and chili.

So sad to be posting this review since I've been coming to Don's since I've been 9 years old, over 20 years ago. The past two times I've been in there, the guy at the register (John might be his name?) has been completely disgusting and inappropriate. First time he called me sexy multiple times before taking my order and then wouldn't stop making stupid jokes. The second time I came in he yelled "WHAT DO YOU WANT? I have a bunch of angry women in here", then after I ordered made an extremely unprofessional joke about being a p*rn star and then was shouting to other customers asking what their occupations were. He is beyond creepy and unfortunately that was my last time stepping in that building and giving them my business. Customers (especially women not wanting to be harassed), stay FAR AWAY. read more

The food is fantastic, love the burgers and beef sandwiches. But cannot give a 5 star because they will randomly be closed for no reason.

Excellent food, very clean, and you get what you ask for. Whenever I ask for extra pickles somewhere, i'll get two. But here, I get like 20 and it makes me so happy. read more

Don's Hot Dogs - When you ask you for extra pickles, you definitely get extra pickles ! - Burgers Near Me - Orland Park, Illinois

Hot dogs a bit pricey but were good. Ate inside and the place is filthy. If the dining area is dirty, I wonder about the kitchen. Girl working at the counter after we ordered was sitting on the counter and looking at her phone. Maybe she should be cleaning the dining area. Don't think I'll be going back. read more

Great food.. especially the dogs and beef.This was my first time at this place. Next time I'm in town, I will bring my workers. Forward for the next in town. read more

The food was ok but the restaurant was filthy. 4 kids standing around doing nothing. When we asked the girl to wipe our sticky table she sat the food trays on it then got a cloth to wipe it. They were not busy. The washroom was gross. Again 4 employees just talking to each other. read more

One of the better Italian beef samich's around. Lean, thin sliced, and well seasoned beef, very good au-jus, red sauce, giardiniera, and great bread. So good. Also, I much prefer these hot dogs at Don's, which use a custom blend of hot dog meat, and not Vienna. read more

Just visited Don's 6/13/24 at 11:50 am. It must be a new owner because the quality is non-existent. The man running the register was very short and rude with the two customers in front of me. He was having difficulty running the register and would yell at them if they went too fast. When it was my turn, the register went down and had to be rebooted. We sat there for about 5 - 10 minutes when he decided to take my order the old-fashioned way, on a paper ticket. I ordered a beef with Mozzzerella and a small fry. He yelled at me to slow down, I was going too fast. I gave him nine singles. He never gave me a copy of the ticket. I stepped back and began to wait. As I was wondering around waiting for my food, my feet kept sticking to the tile floors. The carpeted matts were even worse, just covered in sicky soda that had been spilled. It had to be a long time since they had been washed. I was waiting with the two people in front of me and then about six people that came in after me. As the orders were filled, he would yell out the ticket number, but he did not hand out the tickets. He had to say what the orders were in order for the people to claim them. After about 20 - 25 minutes, most of the people in front of me and behind me received their food. I was starting to get annoyed when the people behind me were getting their food, and then a man who came in about ten minutes after me received a beef sandwich. That was the last straw. I told them to keep my beef sandwich and walked out. They can keep the nine dollars, they are going to need it. I used to love this place. I give them zero stars, I will never be returning. read more

All I can say is WOW! Warning if you are paying cash the owner will not give you the change back and he throws it in the tip car and goes thanks for the tip, I looked at him strangely and he says oh do you want it back, I laughed and said no it's fine, But him automatically doing this is not right. If I want to tip at a fast food restaurant I will but do not take my money automatically. Also I watched him while I was eating he did this to everyone that paid cash, He also was ringing up other peoples order and ringing up more expensive items and they were going back up to get their money back . He was also very rude to a couple with a special needs daughter who he snapped at. The customer yelled back at him. He should have walked out. I will not be returning the owner is unbelievable read more

First time here since moving to the area five years ago. No complaints about the food it was very good. A little expensive but tasted very good. But the restaurant area and restrooms were not clean, and that is putting it mildly. Not sure it won't be another five years before stopping here again. read more

Polish and beef hot dog. No fries, no drink- over $14 -I'm out. Insane. Not sustainable. Going to price yourself out of business

Prices up across the board but WOW are they up at Don's. I dont go as often as a result..and no more weinie weds. Sad. No longer in my rotation. Don brought me back to Joey's down the street. read more

Great Italian beefs. I live in Chicago but work in Orland Park. When I first started working in Orland Park, my cow5told me that Don's had great Italian Beefs. As an Italian Beef snob from Chicago, I was expecting to be disappointed but Don's surprised me. You can tell that they care and I would put their Italian Beef up against any beef place on Chicago. read more

Terrible place for hot dogs.. They almost boiled to death a white in color and the bun was hard .. The special 2-dogs and a fry was $8.00 The fry's were as big as a shoe lace and over cooked.. Rip off don't go there... read more

Nothing special. Boiled hot dog was cheap. The Chicago toppings were good. The onion should have been chopped smaller. The hamburger was kinda gross and raw on one side (not 100% beef?). They have room to improve and could be great someday. read more

food's good. but the floor is so greasy, almost slip and fall when you're walking. all of the tables and counters are sticky. I don't think they had air in the place and it was 90° outside. they had three people in the kitchen. It took a long line for someone to come out and help. The guy who is originally cashier station kept going into the bathroom. read more

Do not purchase gift certificates from them. I gave someone gift certificates, they did not use the full amount and had $2.00 left on the certificate. It is Don's "policy " not to give credit or change for gift certificates. I disagree with their business policy. Just don't give out the extra $5 when you purchase $25. It is called stealing, cheating and embarrassing your customers. read more

Always great food, nice staff It's not near my home so tried a different place closer to be home to see the Cubs NEVER again Your hot dogs,cheese fries, max polish,beef sandwiches all rock read more

We drove 25 minutes to get an Italian sausage sandwich and when we arrived back home ready to eat, the order was wrong. We called expecting an apology and to be compensated for their mistake, ex. A free Italian sausage for the next visit. Instead, the lady was rude and said all she would do is exchange it. So basically she expected us to drive another 25 Min back and 25 more home to replace a sandwich that they messed up? Even after explaining it, she didn't have any other response. So disappointed in the customer service. We won't be back and I will make sure everyone i know follows suit. Terrible business practice. read more

Twice in the last month we have tried to go around 7:20-7:30pm, and the doors were already locked with all the lights off and people in the back of the kitchen. If the hours say 8pm on the door, you'd expect the place to be open over a half hour before close. The food is always good, but service has not been great. We even tried calling before we got to the restaurant 10-15 minutes prior to that and no one answered the phone after 3 separate calls. read more

Ordered 2 Italian sausage sandwiches last Tuesday. The worst Italian sausage sandwich I ever had the sausage was split in half and reheated on the grill dry and salty. The lady at the counter was very nice and pleasant though! read more

It really should illegal to put cucumber on a hot dog. Orland style dogs have me shook, did y'all use Vienna sausages for the dogs ? Those 99 cent 6 pack of hot dogs taste better. Thanks tho the service was fast and it smelt good ! read more

Incredible food! I love going to Don's, but the only concern I have is the posted hours. I pulled up at 7:31 one evening with a huge craving for a cheese dog and fries only to find the doors locked with the staff cleaning up inside. My expectation is when the hours on the door say 8pm they mean 8:00pm, not 7:31 or 7:40. This has happen to me at least 4 times due to my late work hours. That same night at least 3 more cars pulled up only to find what I already experienced. Please re-post the correct hour of operation, very frustrating. I wonder if the owner is aware this is happening. So of course I found myself going to Joey's down the street and I'm beginning to find dishes there that I enjoy. read more

The kitchen workers/ cooks are basically not wearing masks. Young kids who think it's ok to just cover their mouths. I was so nervous the whole time I was eating there. A manager or owner needs to handle this or you should be shut down. read more

I'm in the area for work training and decided to give this place a try. I ordered the maxwell polish $3.39 and the hamburger special $3.99 on Tuesdays only. Price was great, good was good. Service was just alright. Greeted by a late teenage girl leaning over the counter and a tall awkward boy staring at you like a deer in headlights. I didn't feel very comfortable. A lot of awkward staring was going on. Maybe because I was the only African American there. My guess is that they may not have too many ethic customers. Because of this I probably won't return. I don't like or appreciate being stared at by customers and workers alike while trying to eat lunch. I also noticed that a lot of people got "thank you" and "Happy New Year" but I didn't...kinda made me think a little. Oh well. Hopefully the next hole in the wall is more diverse. read more

Don's Hot Dogs - Maxwell Polish, fries, cheese burger - Burgers Near Me - Orland Park, Illinois

Excellent grilled chicken sandwich, not sure what makes it so great but I just love it. Nothing fancy pants about it, just really good! They make great onion rings and hot dogs too. The fries need a little work, just ok. read more

Been coming here on and off for a very long time and this place is fantastic! I always get their all beef dogs Chicago style, but can't go wrong getting the chili cheese dog either! The beef sandwiches are delicious too very tender and flavorful. I drive about 20 mins to eat here, and it has been worth the trip every single time. The staff is very impressive as well, seems to be high school kids, but are always very polite and professional. Don's is the best, I recommend everyone in the Chicago land area to check it out! read more

Cute place, I had the polish sausage and he had the regular hot dog. I liked the toppings on the dogs especially the peppers. Fries were pretty good too and if you want to indulge, get the cheese fries. read more

Their chili is something special. I never order chili anywhere (seriously), but if we go to Don's (as we have for almost 25 years), I always get a large chili with cheese, onions, and cucumbers and 2 large fries to be dunked in said chili. Their hot dogs are great, too. But the chili, fries, and cheddar cheese Italian beef sandwich will fill you up and haunt your dreams like a long lost lover. read more

This is the best place to get a chicago style hot dog. The jumbo dogs are the best... they also offer daily deals like free weenie Wednesday and free gyros Tuesdays ect... the chilitos, jalapeño poppers, and onion rings are also some of the hidden wonders of this place. read more

They have the best hotdogs. I only get 2 a year; one from Sox Park and the other from Dons on Wolf. The condiments: relish, cucumber are perfect. The store is clean, comfortable and air conditioned. Perfect lunch! read more

Aces on the double cheese burger. The bun was nice and soft and the lettuce was crispy with big tomato and onion slices hanging out. The fries were cooked to a golden perfection. The almost 10 dollar tab was a bit steep though. read more

Average at best. Hot dog is not all beef and in Chicago that is a mortal sin. Burger is ok and gyro if u r desperate is passable but they put chopped onions instead of sliced. For being a hot dog place, they r terrible dogs, get a true Vienna all beef or some other all beef dog. Anyone who likes theses dogs r not true Chicagoans. They used to have a large dog that was all beef but that is not anymore. Sad read more
