    If you are downtown Columbus & you need a quick bite or ice cream Tasty Dawg is a good place to try. Staff is very helpful & quick service. It is close to the theater district & government offices. There are many options including Chicago style dawgs with new menu options every month. I enjoyed a Dawg New York style & my daughter ordered the chili cheese dawg. Make sure to grab extra napkins. Large portions. Next time I will try some of the sides as well. Theater patrons receive a discount as well. Check it out!

    Sweet Teddys Coney

    I went there for the hot dog but left impressed with the selection of Mac bowls which all looked really good. But for the hot dog, the Sweet Teddy's Coney was incredible. Throwing on some relish was a nice call, getting it on a sturdy pretzel bun was a good call, and getting this dog in general was the best call. So much selection and great tasting ingredients are hard to beat.

    Spicy Dawg

    This was a solid choice for a quick bite. I had the Spicy Dawg and it was really good. Promotional free ice cream with a $5 purchase was nice, but it wasn't the best. Ambiance was okay, service was great, but the dawg was the star, as it should be.

    Great selection of hotdogs & great location right by Ohio Statehouse in Columbus. We will be definitely back soon. Love the chilly dog and I'm ready to try the Chicago one soon.

    We stopped in about 15 min. before closing time, but the employee graciously offered to make me something even though the kitchen was closed. I opted for a plain hot dog with ketchup so nothing fancy. Loved the fun decor and the great location. The dog was a typical beef version, so nothing fancy. Next time I'll try something fancier.

    Pimento Cheese Dawg

    Fun atmosphere and decent selection! We stopped in after a show at the Ohio Theater. My daughter had a scoop of peppermint stick ice cream and a plain hot dog. She really liked it! I had the pimento cheese hot dog. The guy working was very nice. I wasn't a huge fan of the pretzel roll and it could have been hotter (temperature). Overall, good experience and would recommend!

    The service is incredible. I was just walking by and I saw a guy opening up the place and he was smiling and said good morning to me and that gesture made me stop in. The place looked energetic and he kept smiling like Santa Claus. Has the Hot dog ambiance. I walked around and then ordered 3 orders of food. I just wanted to support a business that welcomes you in because it's rare to find that anymore. Well, he also has ice cream from perry. He has a flavor called cannoli. It should be called holy cannoli because it was delicious. I ordered the Italian beef and it was tasty. Did I say they have ice cream. Ooo my. I really enjoyed the concept and they had a dawg bar. The only reason I didn't give 5 star is because of parking. It's a downtown biz so it is what it is. It's a must try.

    CHICAGO DAWG
    Kembral C.

    Highly recommend checking places out. I was downtown for work and needed lunch. Used Yelp to determine a place to try that was walking distance. Ordered a Chicago Dog with a fountain drink. The dog was fully loaded and hit the spot! It was fully eaten less than 5 mins because I just couldn't put it down. Very savory with lots of good flavors and spice. Beyond dogs, I realized they also sold sandwiches and mac & cheese bowls. I look forward to trying this next time. Lastly, when you stop by, be sure to get a punch card. They're running a promotion- the most punches, the more likely to get something free! The service was top tier. They were EXTREMELY nice and engaging with everyone that came into the restaurant, whether they were ordering food or not. I really appreciated how engaging the team was. Check this place out!

    This place is so nice! Reasonable prices in downtown Columbus and delicious hot dogs! The staff is SUPER friendly and attentive. I really recommend a visit!

    We stopped by to pick up lunch and was not disappointed. We tried the Philly Dawg and South of the Border which were both so delicious and filling. I placed an order for pickup and it was ready in about 10 minutes. The staff was friendly and greeted me right when I walked in. There are also plenty of tables in the store for dine in.

    Island BBQ Dawg
    Nick P.

    Overall 4.5. The owner was very kind and helpful. Yes prices are a little high per hot dog. It is also extremely difficult to find a place to eat lunch in downtown Columbus. The city desperately needs to open up more restaurants or at least extend the hours. Too many places closed. Tasty Dawg was open and has more than enough seating available. The island bbq and Philly were very palatable. The hot dog itself is not tiny, good size. The pretzel bun goes well with the hot dog on both kinds. Ingredients were all fresh.

    Friendly and local. Dawgs were good! Kid and adult approved! Something different than the normal chain restaurant. Definitely give it a try!
