Hungry need a place to eat with a 5 year old ? Good Dog is not the place ! All kids like hotdogs and most adults but this place my 5 year old wouldn't even eat the hotdog. We ordered 3 hotdogs with chili and cheese, 1 plain hotdog for the 5 year old, 2 french fries to split, 2 cupcakes , 3 fountain drinks all this was $41.00 and change. The hotdogs were over cooked burned and tough not juicy nothing special,the chili tasted thick and bitter, the fries I think we're maybe made there and was served cold, the best part of the meal was the fountain drinks and the cupcakes ! The service was horrible and we were the only customers there, music was to loud when we left they staff was as quite as they were when we went in. Want a hot dog ? Don't eat at the good dog ! I can't take stars away so I have to give it a one of five but it needs to be minus 3. read more

As far as I'm concerned Good Dog is the ONLY place to get hot dogs in Chattanooga!!! The service is immaculate. From being greeted from the friendly staff, to the amazing deals. Not to mention the beautiful scenery surrounding the restaurant! From being a hop skip from the river front to the incredible shops of North Shore. I would suggest getting fries with every meal because of one thing! THE WASABI KETCHUP!!!! Such an amazing combination of flavors. I've always gotten the same dogs but I do suggest trying the whole menu!! I always get the Chicago and Ruben dogs! I think what sold me was the fact that everything is made fresh to order and all meats, breads, and ingredients are found local fresh right here in Chattanooga!!! Truly a treat for any hot dog fans ever!! read more

Prior to coming we called to find out more about the place and Susan was the most helpful person ever! Even before getting there we were excited about this place and we were not disappointed! Susan welcomed us like she was welcoming us into her own home. She talked us through the menu and offered samples of the beer selection from the local brewery. Even when they were super busy Susan came to our table and checked in with us. Now for the actual food: it was delicious! Our large group got a variety of the menu and none of us were upset or disappointed by it! They also brought the food out so quickly! Everyone working made us feel so welcome and like they enjoyed our company. It was the best decision we made the whole trip! read more

My first review on yelp. Set up an account specifically to write this .Painfully slow . An hour for two hotdogs ..... Waste of my time and money . Mediocre food at best . AVOID read more

Are food was amazing I think they took to long to get 2 plan hotdogs and 2 other one my family owns a restaurant and we are pretty Quick

We are vegan and came here because they advertise as vegan friendly. However, they don't let you just substitute their vegan-dog when getting their various entrees, rather they make you pay for the vegan dog, then for each ingredient separately, so they can be up being insanely expensive. And there are no vegan buns, so they give you lettuce. Lots of potential-- the vegan dog itself is great -- but unfortunately disappointing overall at this point. read more

Very disappointed with this restaurant. I ordered a veggie dog and was given a real hot dog. I have been a vegetarian for 21 years and biting into a real hot dog was not only a surprise it was very upsetting. So I don't know where the fault lies but a restaurant which offers vegetarian options should put a little more care and concern into providing that to a paying customer. So I will say BAD Dog and never eat at this place again. If I could leave a 'zero star' review I i most certainly would. read more

We ate here for lunch today, and it was pretty good! Their fries were hand cut and oh so tasty. I got The Fred dog, and my husband got the Chicago dog. Both were delicious. Definitely a great choice, especially with Clumpie's just a few doors down. read more

I would have taken photos of my meal here but I didn't want to share how magnificent it was. Photos of my Chicken and Gravy hash plate would have been classified as "food pornography", it was absolutely sinfully delicious. I don't know who has the golden plated palate that came up with these flavor profiles but they deserve high praise and a spot on Master Chef (just so the world can be impressed that a "hot dog" chef is on Master Chef). Good Dog is far more than a "hot dog" place, this is culinary bliss that comes disguised as tubular meat. They case their own sausages and they blend a variety of wonderful condiments to add to their already wonderful meat magic. The curry ketchup is perfect with just about everything. I had the "Chicken and Gravy" hash plate. The chicken sausage was absolutely divine and the flavors just jumped off the plate. Oh and don't discard that "garnish" because it is actually a wonderful arugula with a fantastic light dressing on it. Toss it in with the rest of your hash plate and then add a little of that curry ketchup and you will be in the foodie pleasure dome. The location is great, the place is wonderfully setup and the staff can't be beat. I have never seen young man so excited to tell me about everything on the menu before. The "frites" (fries for the less high brow) are wonderful and they have these neat holes cut in the table that the "frite cones" fit in. Forget that fact that is sounds like a "hot dog" place and just get your behind down to Good Dog to see what a talented chef can do with meat in a tube. You taste buds will thank you! read more

This was a less than stellar experience. Our order took at least 20 minutes to come out, which for hot dogs and fries seemed extreme. People who came in much later than us got their food before us. The explanation for the delay was that the gluten free bun I ordered "took a while to warm up." When we finally got our order, my bun was cold, not the slightest bit warm. The bun was incredibly dry also. I ended up not even eating it. The staff was very enthusiastic but a bit much for my taste. We were given a long tutorial before ordering. To me, the menu was pretty self explanatory. The staff was regularly checking in and wanting to discuss sauces, etc. It took so long to get our food and yet eating was further delayed by more questions from the staff. I know some folks enjoy high touch service but I just wanted to eat my long awaited dog in peace. My boyfriend enjoyed his dog and especially the frite sauce. read more

Worst breakfast! Not only did they forget to bring. My breakfast with the rest of our party's food, but they brought undercooked French fries. Then when my food did arrive the breakfast potatoes were undercooked. When I mentioned this to the server, I was brought yet another batch of undercooked potatoes. Who knew it was so easy to mess up a potato? Now leaving....hungry.... Going somewhere else to eat! read more

Today was my first time eating at the Good Dog and I really was impressed. I had a DOGGFATHER and a REUBEN. I will be back again. I would recommend this place to my friends that want great food and friendly staff. Dog Gone Good Dog read more

Best dogs around! Will be sure to eat here next trip up. Rate this place AAAA++++ Staff was great place is very clean. read more

Definitely a fun spot! I would recommend, especially if you're in the area. Their fries are . I had the veggie Reuben-pretty good for a veggie dog! My only complaint was they forgot the sauerkraut... read more

Despite having a vegan dog, they don't have a vegan bun???? Unfortunately, the staff person didn't tell me this the first time I visited. I found out the 2nd time from a staff person. So if you're vegan, they only offer lettuce for a bun. read more

Came here and loved it when I used to live in Chattanooga. Every time I come back I have to come here and nothing has changed. Great food, staff and atmosphere. I'll keep coming back. read more

Grate food at good prices stop by and have grate hotdog or awesome cupcake Or a grate cup or bowl is soup they make everything fresh the brought wurst or hand cased and vary filling for the money and the cupcakes or made fresh they or open 7 days a week This review by Stephen Brock read more

Absolutely the best dog I've ever had. Our family was having a day out in Coolidge Park, so we walked right over for lunch. The atmosphere/decor is very eclectic, the staff is very friendly and helpful, and there is so much variety to choose from, you'll stare at the menu for a long time just trying to decide. I got the 'Frito-Jalapeño', which is a chili cheese dog topped with Fritos, cream sauce, and cilantro. I've had some good chili dogs, but this one made forget about all of them. read more

My fav is the Veggie Chicago Hot Dog! With a large fry. I love this place. They also have a 10% Military discount! Only down size is parking. But I guess thats just part of being downtown. Super friendly staff and fast service. read more

Best veggie dog in town! I sent it back the first time I ordered it because I was worried they had confused the order. It's just that good! Fries are amazing- try the frites sauce! The 2 bean chili is also tasty. And the staff are the friendliest in Chattanooga! read more

COOK DID NOT WASH HIS HANDS...the employee comes walking in from the street, clocks in at the front, puts on his apron and starts handling food...what????...then he cracks an egg, doesn't even wipe his hand and continues to handle other people's food...we walked out. read more

At $31 for 2 adults and 2 kids it's a little steep for lunch. It was also kinda slow at about 20 minutes for hot dogs. The bright spot was the hand cut fries and the girl up front. It will be a while before we come back. read more

Vegie dogs are amazing. Small place and always stay busy. They have few local beers. Can have a good walk on the bridge after you get your belly full...lol read more

Go in just for the fries! They also have vegetarian & gluten free options, so it's a great place when you have a group with varied food requirements! The service has always been great! read more

Very fun place with a bunch of different hot dog options. Haven't found anything I don't like! The workers are very nice as well.

Took over an hour for 2 hot dogs. Place was packed with only about 3 workers. #trashdog

Awesome hot dog place! There isn't one I've tried that I don't love. French fries are not that great though if I'm being honest. But hot dogs are delicious. read more

Visited from Dallas, TX. I consider myself a hot dog "snob", meaning that I've tried the best and the worst of them. My daughter wanted to take me here to see what I thought. It was greatness. I don't remember what all our table ordered, but it was a little bit of everything. I do remember that I had a reuben that was highly unusual and very good! So were the hand cut frites. Great service to boot. Hey guys, lets get some investors and open up some stores from Dallas to Fayetteville, AR! Love it! read more

The service is fine, and the people are nice and welcoming. I have been here twice, when it comes to the food; Good Dog falls short of good. The hotdogs and sausages were in no way memorable. Lack of flavor and generally dry over cooked hotdogs are paired with equally stale buns increasing the level of disappointment. The French fries are mediocre, they attempt to augment their lack of flavor with their in house seasoning, but it proves to be lacking and more of the same. The in house ketchup is rushed. I love hotdogs, and I have had some great ones in other cities. I see the direction Good Dog wants to go, and it could happen for them. Good Dog probably has the capability of making a descent hot dog, they are doing the right things ie casing in house, house made ketchup etc. but definitely needs to rethink a few things. Also disappointed to see no recycling. read more

Stopped for an urge Chicago Dog. Very friendly joint, and a great dog. Really hit the spot.

What an awesome little dive! We had 1 full day in Chattanooga and we spent it at the zoo and at Good Dog. They know how to do sausages and hot dogs! So many toppings and combinations, it was hard to choose. Then the Jamaican sausage caught my eye. I was informed that the sausages were ground in house and that the jamaican was goooooood. I added garlic cream cheese, onions and peppers, and a poached egg on top. YUM! My dad got it with their recommendations, and he was very happy with it as well. I had to knock off a star for the bun. I expected a nice chewy roll, but got a very very dense bready roll. It almost tasted stale it was so thick. The kids had dogs, and for 2 bucks a pop they were happy. You MUST get the fries if for one reason - to dip them into the homemade curry ketchup and wasabi ketchup. Both were AMAHHHHHHHZING! Oh, and I love how they promote the local beer that is made across the street. Very cool. Lastly, my FAUXmosa. It was a hard apple cider beer with orange juice. Dude, it was BETTER than a mimosa!!!!! read more

Normal sized hot dogs that tasted ok. No different than store bought. Dont complain about anything because manager has a bad attitude when dealing with complaints. read more

i am obsessed with this place. i have thought about it ever since leaving chattanooga! i'm vegetarian and the veggie dogs were amazing!!!! this place is definitely a must try while in chattanooga. read more

Really good hot dogs plus terrible service - maybe it's better if you don't go at meal time. I was here at 1:00 pm on a Friday and didn't expect a 40 minute wait for a hot dog. I would probably come her again if I wanted to eat lunch at 3:30 but NEVER again at the time that most people actually eat lunch. Sorry but good food alone doesn't make a great restaurant. read more

This place made us wait 45 mins for our entire order because they didn't have chili heated up. Chili is on three of their hot dogs. Wtf. They never bussed a single table and when I went to throw my tray away the garbage was over flowing. Speaking from experience the management team in this place needs to get some things tightened up. Too bad to because the food was pretty good. read more

Price is high. Service is slow. Food not great. Had Italian dog and broughtworhist and fries. Not great for the cost. Only okay.

This was my first time visiting the area and came across "Good Dog". Who can turn down a good dog! What a great atmosphere and friendly staff. During my travels I'm always in search of a good dog and am very selective. This was by far the best I've come across in awhile!!! New York dog ~ my favorite (of course growing up in the NJ/NY area). the slaw dog was also great! read more

See all

So yummy! Have been here twice and will for sure come again. Both times I was here I got the pimento cheese hotdog and fries. The hot dog was amazing!! It was a sausage dog with pimento cheese and bacon on top. I could've eaten 10. The fries were good. Not the best fries I've ever had but not bad either. The specialty ketchups made the fries better. They also offer gluten free hot dogs which is great. The atmosphere is cute and quirky! It's not too loud. Decent amount of seating. It can tend to get more crowded during busy hours. The service is fantastic! They are willing to answer any questions and recommend their favorites. Food came quick. read more

Stopped in and had an all beef dog with some of my favorite toppings (brown mustard, kraut & pickle). If you want eclectic toppings for your hot dog this is the place. Good fries but they could have been crispier (need a second dunk in the fryer). Their sriracha aioli that includes malt vinegar is dynamite, but make sure to ask for it. The bun on dog was fresh but could use a little steam or time on the flat top. I asked where the frankfurter was made and they said NJ. Will have to try their homemade sausages next time. My hot dog, small fry and a drink came to $10.65 read more

I had a disappointing experience here. I ordered three dogs for the family. Every one of them was burned to crispy on 2 sides. The cook had stopped to chit chat with a client/friend and I guess she just forgot that I had paid to have a meal. I was absolutely disappointed. I don't think that the employees are trained well which is the fault of management. It will be a long while until I return, if I do. read more
