This was our first time at Frankie's and trying it out for restaurant week made us want to add it to our regular lunch rotation. The restaurant isn't big, but has more seating than it looks like from the outside. When we walked in, we were greeted by Harman and he made some excellent recommendations for us. He told us what his favorites were on both the restaurant week menu and the regular menu. The boudin egg rolls were good and the sauce on top of it was the perfect pairing for it. The Mac and cheese and was so rich and it was a larger portion that I was expecting. The shrimp wrap was a nice balance to the heaviness of the Mac and cheese and it was a refreshing taste. Not pictured, but the sweet potato fries for dessert were delicious and the caramel sauce on them is something I would buy bottles of. Everything is made to order, and with the amount of fried food on the restaurant week menu, it did take a while for us to get our food and we had to get our dessert to go to get back to work. I can't wait to go back and try some of the rest of Harman's recommendations. read more

Frankie's is part of MajorMenus for our office, and I'm glad i ordered from them a few times. The OG Cheeseburger is enough for two meals and it's super tasty. It's cooked perfectly. I have ordered a couple of various dogs - I can't remember which ones but I love the variation and the different flavors and textures, and next up, I want to try the wraps. All in all, pretty good. I need to go to the brick and mortar, I just haven't made it over there yet. I'll definitely be happy when they come around on the schedule again. read more

I finally had a chance to try Frankie's Dawg House. Let me start by say that it looked like an authentic Chicago Hot Dog and the fries were hot and fresh and a good size portion. However, the Dawg didn't taste likenit looked. The bun was cold and fell apart. The hot dog itself was a little cold in the middle as well. The service was great and the shop was nice and clean. I wish the food had lived up to the hype. read more

I got a gator dawg with jalapeños, grilled onions & a fried egg. Flavor wise it was delicious. Presentation wise it was sloppy and I couldn't eat it without making a mess. Would I get it again? Absolutely! I'd like to try one of their new smash burgers next time. read more

Place is cute and clean. A great place I would think to bring dogs. And if you have a problem with dogs going to this establishment please dont come. They give free hot dogs as a treat for the dogs However there was a group of people that came and did not like dogs. The service was very good! The people working there were super nice and helpful! I got a boudin hot dog with pulled pork and bbq sauce and it was good! The fries were great too. read more

I must've got there at the wrong time at 11am ‍. The Hot Dog was old - ate a couple of bites and had to trash it. You could see it was soaked for a long time (probably leftover from the previous day) and the buns are cheap store brand. Nothing gourmet about this establishment. Sorry - not trying to sound rude. read more

Fun and funky with great food and staff. We are always out to find new and interesting lunch spots in BR. Frankie's was our most recent find. Imagine our surprise when we arrived and realized it was right next to Parrains, one of our favorites. If you exit the interstate coming from downtown, it is right past Parrains for reference. The building is small and resembles a cool outdoor space one would find in a friend's backyard. I liked it so much that I would love to have a friend with a place like this. If you have an outdoor area like this, holla at your boy. We should be friends. The food is simple and hot dog based. I got a Chuck Norris and bratwurst. Both were very good and much higher quality than a hot dog you would make at home. I finished the meal off with an order of chili cheese tots. This was a good choice. I would have liked a little more chili but the addition of onions and jalapenos was a good idea. Will I be back? Yep. Should you add this to your lunch rotation? Yep. read more

My sister loves Frankie's Dawg House and usually makes a point of stopping in at least once when she's in town. Her go to is the Chuck Norris which is topped with chili, cheese, bacon, onions and jalapeños - that a lot of toppings. I would just usually get a regular hotdog, chili cheese, nothing special for me. Their sitting area has a nice cozy feel, not what you would expect for my hotdog place. Great service as well. The last time we were there I ordered two corndogs for a change of pace, and the corndog wasn't cooked long enough and the center was a bit cold. They ended up making me two more, no questions asked. I've spoken with the owner a few times. Very nice gentleman. I even made a YouTube video here once and talked to one of the employees about the cat which is actually named Frankie. If I recall correctly, Frankie's is actually named after a cat! You also find more interesting choices on the menu. There's a deer hotdog and alligator and such. So there's definitely something for everyone. Even vegetarian choices. read more

Went for Sunday Night Bingo (what fun!) and had the BEST Veggie Burger ever!

Came back here for my 2nd time (after the 1st many years ago) for a K9 Rouge Rescue event and was impressed with everything! The staff was so helpful for us setting up space for the pups, the food was delicious, and the setting is just precious (as it was the first time I went). My favorite find was probably the fruit-infused lemonades! I couldn't get enough!! I hope next time I come they offer alligator corndogs again as I was really hoping to try that out. All good though as they have so many options, and no doubt they're all delicious! read more

This was my first time ordering from this restaurant. I ordered the corndogs. They were horrible! They were blacker than me, past burnt. I ordered through my work on Major Menus and will never order again. The audacity of you guys to send burnt corn dogs when you can clearly look at them and see they are black is disappointing and tells me you don't care about your customers at all! read more

Great casual spot! On our way to florida we stopped here, and it was only 2 minutes off of the highway. It was a fun vibe and it had an air conditioned little sports bar outdoor patio that was really cute and fun! The place is bigger than it looks on the outside for sure! I got the Chicago dog, and it was good! My husband also enjoyed the breading on his corn dog. The tater tots had a great creole seasoning as well. The best part was- they give you a free hot dog for your dog if you bring them in! Our dog bear loved it, and they even remembered his name. Great customer service! read more

I had walked in at 8 o'clock, an hour before they closed. Was told that i could not sit down in there because they were about to close which didn't make sense. Anyway weird vibe in the place. Hot dogs are ok. Wanted no jalepenos on the deer dawg but I was told I couldn't do that for some reason which doesn't make sense either since they are just on top. Probably wouldn't go back. read more

While visiting Baton Rouge I noticed this place mom and pop cafe tucked behind Magpie Cafe. I haven't had a #hotdog in awhile and it's been even longer since I've had one that I didn't make at home myself. I wasn't impressed. The minimum requirement I have for restaurants is that the food is temperature hot but you won't find that here. The hot dog, chili or cheese was barely above room temp. I was looking forward to the Nathan's dog but I won't be back especially at these food prices. I liked the free WiFi and $5 Bud Light aluminum bottle. Outdoor patio seating was cool with TVs but I need good food with atmosphere. Pro tip: Don't expect to use the $1 off Yelp Check-In offer. Ownership states that they haven't allowed this coupon in 10 years but it's right on their page. read more

Why do they call a hot dog a hot dog? Because it's coming in hot, and dawg, it's Good! I got a chance to try this hidden gem, (near zippy tacos) and it was worth going! I ordered 3 hot dogs: 1. Chicago Dawg: Topped with pickles, tomatoes, onions, celery salt, sport peppers, and relish. 2. Chuck Norris: Topped with chilli, cheese, bacon, grilled onions, and jalapeños . 3. Lobster Dawg: Small lobster tails, spinach, grilled onions, with a creamy lobster sauce. You're missing out on these Deluxe hot dogs! Come get you some! (The owner Mike and his cat Frankie's was nice to me too!) read more

The Chicago Dawg. While it had all the usual toppings of a Chicago Hot Dog, it lacked the most important part, a Vienna beef hot dog. The only thing that saved it was the toppings. The service was great and love the character of this place, but I'd rather eat a ballpark with Chicago fixings than whatever brand they are selling. read more

Absolutely loved this gem! Hotdogs are my favorite and it's my heaven to find vegan dogs. Aside from the deliciousness, the ambiance was on point. The service was super friendly. If I lived in Baton Rouge, I'd be here twice/ week. For now, it will be my go-to every time I'm in the area. Totally obsessed. Love the decor and dog- friendly atmosphere. read more

Eek. Maybe this place is wonderful, but some of us will never know. The aggressive guy who answers the phone and cancels delivery orders is dawg blocking us! This review is for the vegans. I ordered two veggie dawgs. I made a note/reminder on my dawgs that said "VEGAN." Because three other dawgs in the order were not the veggie dawgs. The order got canceled, but it was initially accepted. That means it could have been the driver, so I placed it again. It was canceled with a notice stating the notes could not be filled. I'd asked for their peach mango sauce, which isn't an option online. And one of the nonveggie dawgs said it came topped with fried or tots but had no option to select tots so a note for tots was left. I wasn't sure what note was the issue. I wanted some dawgs so I called to ask. It was a bewildering phone call. The issue was because I left a note reminding them the veggie dawgs are vegan! (Right? Who wants accidental bovine- cheese on their veggie dawg? Also, maybe they'll be awesome and label them so we don't have to guess what's what). The guy was heated. He said I CANNOT MAKE THAT ORDER WITH THOSE NOTES. I asked if the veggie Dawg is vegan. I calmly said, online, it says it's 100% vegan. I thought oops, maybe I made a mistake. He said it doesn't say that online. And he did a lot of circling around, but I did gather he has a tofu dog, and yes, it's considered vegan, but I didn't order his veggie dawg. I said I did, but I labeled it vegan. He said he refused to fulfill the order with the note on there. That is, he refuses to make me his vegan dawg since I called it vegan. Haha. The call ended. I quickly went to the internet to figure out how / where / why I thought this guy had a vegan dawg. I found them on Vegan Friendly Foods initially. But turns out the vegan description is on Uber. I called back to let him know it's labeled vegan on Uber and he can let them know and they will fix that. I said ohKay I just want you know, on Uber you have it listed as 100% vegan. The call ended with him saying i am wrong, he has NO dawg listed as vegan. Screen shot attached! read more

Best Dawgs in the BR area. Good service and they use the best condiment to make the perfect dawg.

This place has a solid hot dog! Shout out to Tyreek, he was so nice and service was top tier. I recommend the lobster dog and cheese fries because they're BOMB! Pairs really well with a daiquiri from New Orleans Daiquiris. read more

Who doesn't love hot dogs? Not me! I have been here several times and each time has been deli-sh. The place is small but they have a nice selection of dawgs to choose from. Alligator, crawfish, deer, polish and the ole standby Nathans hot dogs! The dawgs come with a variety of pres preselected combinations, of you can build your own dog! Not in the mood for a hot dogs, that is ok. Frankies has burgers and melts too. Sides are limits (fries, tots, slaw, mac n cheese), but they have beer, hard seltzer and if your lucky, Margaritas! I've have 3 dawgs so far : Chicago, Brat and the Chuck Norris. All have been served fast, hot and chocked full of toppings. The later makes them a bit hard to eat and messy, but sooo good. Looking forward to the next trip! read more

I thought this would be a fun place to stop off, as we were traveling through Baton Rouge. I really enjoyed the Chicago Dawg and wish I had ordered two. I also ordered a lobster and was very disappointed, as there was a hot dog in it and I did not care for the sauce, at all. Now I took a picture of the menu that does not say a hot dog topped with a few pieces of lobster. I don't think lobster and hot dog go together, so if I had seen it on the menu like that ... I definitely would not have ordered. The place itself is cute, but not necessarily cleaned well. We had to have them wipe our table down again and the chairs that we used were not comphy. There is an assortment of seating. We sat at an older black iron table with what seemed to be a worn out spring in the cushion or seat. Would I come back? Definitely for the Chicago and maybe to try something else. read more

Notes: 1) been here multiple times 2) never met a dog here but met a cat before Pros: 1) good food 2) great service 3) loved the aesthetic 4) great seating area Cons: 1) kinda pricey (opinion) 2) not much parking space I love going to Frankie's Dawg house. It has a nice home-y feel to the seating area, and I love the wood and decor of the place. There is even space for you fluffy friends and food bowls for them, too! I have been here multiple times and would definitely continue to come here in the future for great food and service. One big downside to this place is the area. There just isn't a lot of parking space that could fill up pretty quickly depending on the time. Luckily, I have never had this issue as there was usually only me and my friends at this restaurant when I went. The front is where you order. There is a whole list of menu items to choose from which are all drastically different from one another. In this area, there is a few drink dispensers and usually a cooler with drinks such as water and soda. There is also a cooler with some ice cream here as well. Every time that I come here, I am always greeted with amazing service. The people in the front are nice, friendly, and helpful in taking your order and also in talking to you and guiding you around the restaurant. The people that take your order also serves you as well and have always come in with our orders correct and with a smile to boot. I have never had a bad experience here. The food here is truly amazing. I have had a lot of the different sausages here and have liked all of them. I have a hard time choosing between the different types, because it's all so good. The unique flavors that are put into each dog is just amazing to taste. I have never had a more quality gourmet hot dog before. The sides are also really good. I can't get enough of the Mac and cheese or the tater tots. On the issue of pricing, it all really depends on you. Some of the dogs are 6-9 dollars and with a side and a drink could be up to 12 dollars. It's not the worst deal as the dogs are pretty sizable and would be a full meal for some. However, I have been told that the prices seem a bit steep for some. Personally, I think that the prices are reasonable as the quality is just really good. Additionally, you can opt into their app and get rewards towards your purchases. Eventually, you can make enough to get a free meal. If you are a regular, you should get the app to accumulate those points. It really helps! I would definitely recommend all of you sausage/ hot dog lovers to come here and try it. You can also bring that fluffy companion with you as well! read more

Excellent food. Great service; Friendly staff. They specialize in gourmet hotdogs, hamburgers, and specialty sandwiches. If you bring your dog, they will give them a free hotdog. They have indoor (AC) or outdoor seating on the back patio and near the entrance. Prices are reasonable and the beer is cold. I had probably the best pulled pork sandwich I have had anywhere. The red dog (boudin with pulled pork is also popular. My daughter had the chili cheese dog and said it was great. I will definitely be back. This is one of those hidden gems. read more

Wonderful place for you and your dogs to cool off and have a good meal.Feels like home.

If you think it's un-American to eat a hot dog with a fork and knife, you should maybe go to Sonic. But if want a big, tasty dog, overflowing with wonderful toppings - so much that you can't get it all in your mouth and you need a fork and knife to get it all - this is your place. Tater tots were hot and perfectly crispy - not soggy, not greasy. Just perfect. And the slaw is crunchy, rough cut, with a creamy dressing - a perfect cold, creamy, crunchy complement to the hot, crispy tots. The hot dogs are big, thick, and good The Chuck Norris dog is really good. Not too much chili, with sautéed onions and bacon. Another perfect combination. And the Chicago dog is an excellent version of the classic. Neon relish, sport peppers, and all. Maybe could use a bit more tomato and celery salt, but it is a great hot dog. And definitely worthy of a fork and knife unless you want it all on your shirt. Counter service was good, food was delivered to our table quickly. It's a small, cramped place, but the enclosed patio is a great spot to enjoy these excellent hot dogs. Five stars: I'd drive 10 miles out of my way to eat this food again. read more
