We were in the area and wanted some Chicago Hot Dogs and this spot was bookmarked. Small spot with…read morepatio seating only and very limited parking. We parked on the street around the corner. They had a long line a little after 1 on a Friday afternoon. Took about 45 minutes to get to the order counter so would definitely call ahead although maybe the wait is part of the experience. I was talking to a group in front of me that recommended the Char Pup so ordered a Char Jumbo Dog and a double Pup. Also ordered a 1/3 pound Char Merkt cheddar Burger. For toppings, we got everything and grilled onions on the Red Hots and both were excellent! Some of the best we've had. The surprise was the Burger (which we saw was highly rated). It had that flame grilled tasty beef and we got it with everything and grilled onions also-simple. delicious Burger and just the right size. They also have Italian Beef as well Italian and Polish sausage. Service at the counter was friendly and quick-food was ready about 15 minutes after ordering. A Triple D favorite that lives up to the hype!

Delicious burgers, but outside seating only, so you might want to take it to go if it's a bit cold…read more I went here around 3:00 p.m. and there was still a very long line. This place is listed in some lists as the best burger joint in Illinois. It's really solid. And the shakes are very good, too. They do crinkly fries, in case that's your jam. I enjoyed the flavor of the burger, although I do wish there were more pickles. :-) We had to wait for a table outside, and it was a little bit chilly, but overall I felt it was worth it.

This is the best depression dog you can find! Sure, Jimmy's, Nana's, and the venerable Gene and…read moreJude's are both outstanding as well, and they are basically interchangeable for a great dog, so go to the one that you like/are closest to. Here are the things that take RRH to the top of my list: 1. Convenient drive through service. You don't need to exit your vehicle to eat there. 2. They will char your dog on the flat top grill they use for the it grilled onions for the Maxwell St. polish. 3. 4 mini supreme tamales instead of one large tamale. Same amount by weight, a lot easier to eat while on the road! 4. And the thing that really sells it for me-the hand cut fries are cooked in BEEF TALLOW! The next two are either positives or negatives, depending on your POV. I've never used these options, but: 5. They accept credit cards, albeit for a 3% surcharge 6. Ketchup is available BY REQUEST ONLY! I have a feeling you will get shamed if you have the palate of an eight year old and ask for it on you dog, and there are squirt bottles available if you eat on sit and wish to dip your fries, although they are so good plain, "red mustard" as one social media presenter calls ketchup, is not needed.

A chocolate cone as a treat, and sometimes a shake. They are always super nice and fast! The food is fresh and made to order. There's lots of seating inside and outside. And, it's always sparkling clean! CharDog-This hotdog is absolutely perfect! I savor every last bite of it. It's a Vienna Beef hotdog. So, it's the real deal. It's not the traditional Chicago dog. So, don't expect that. This hotdog is juicy, smokey, and charred with a bold beef flavor. Loaded with mustard, sports peppers, relish, and onions. On a nice plush bun. I personally get it without onions. And, it's heavenly! Chocolate Cone-If you're in the mood for a creamy, dreamy, and delicious cone. Then, make sure to get this! The chocolate is nutty and bold. I love this tasty treat. It brings me so much joy! I every now and then will treat myself to this family sized cone. And, I happily finish every last lick of this. So, next time you see Rand Red Hots. Make sure to stop here! You won't regret it!

The food is always made quickly, even with large orders, and every meal comes with crispy, well-seasoned fries. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, a drive-thru, and ample parking.

We live just a mile away from Superdawg and just went here with our 4-year-old son, who calls it "hot dogs on the roof." Whenever I'm hungry for a Chicago dog and delicious fries, I immediately head to Superdawg to satisfy my craving. There is no other place like it, and it's a true Chicago establishment. I like that there are options for where you can eat. You can eat in your car and have the car hop bring you food. You can eat outside at the picnic tables. Or you can order inside and eat in their dining area. I also just found out that they provide catering! Superdawg will always hold a special place in my heart, and I hope that it remains open for generations to come.

Flew into Chicago late, wanted a taste of Chicago but didn't want to head back into the city so…read moredecided to try Superdawg (on our list for a while). It was almost 11pm (they're open until 2am on Fridays.) and there were at least a dozen other vehicles in their drive-in stalls. Ordered their specialties, a Superdawg and Whoopskidawg with Superfries, Chocolate Super Malt and Black Kows. Service was fast and friendly at 11pm on a Friday. We were eating in our rental car in apx 10 min. It was cool to eat outside on a warm July night in a classic, 1950s style drive-in. The food was excellent, flavorful and fresh. I normally avoid krinkle cut fries because they are usually frozen and mushy or mealy. Not Superfries. These fresh cut fries were practically fried mashed potatoes. We loved them! The drinks were perfect. The Black Kows is basically a root beer float and served with an extra root beer "sidecar." Our only complaints were about errors with the garnishes. We specifically said we wanted all the garnishes on both dawgs and they only gave us the standard grilled onions on the Whoopskidawg and forgot the sport peppers on the Superdawg. Otherwise we loved everything. We might go back next week (before we fly home) because I really want to try their Whoopercheesie Burger and maybe a Supersundae.
