Service - great! Food - super yummy! The wings (especially the habanero and secret seasoning) are amazing, the hot dogs are high quality with great toppings, and the garlic fries, fried Oreos and conchas are all delicious. We highly recommend Dirt Dog for anyone looking for flavorful food, fun vibes, and excellent service. This place never disappoints! If you'd like, I can also make a shorter Yelp/Google version or a more casual social media post. read more

Random Saturday stop with some friends. I think it was a bit early in the day as it was pretty empty. Food is limited offerings but pretty good. Of course the beer selection was solid. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very nice inside decoration and inviting atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outdoors is most of the seating area with some tents for shade.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I am sure as the day goes on, this place gets packed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Only note, was it was a bit hard to find if not familiar with the area. It is in an industrial area and set back with parking in the front. read more

Stopped by on Friday for lunch after running errands with the family. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place had just opened, so it was empty.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We wanted to catch the game that started at 10 am, but unfortunately they weren't able to put it on for us. The food menu is pretty limited. My husband and I ordered the birria tacos and he also got the esquite, while our son went with the Dirt Dog. What I did like was the large selection of tall cans... my husband got a draft beer and I had a White Claw. Based on the menu pictures, I had higher expectations. My son devoured his hot dog, which looked really good, but the birria tacos were a letdown. They were really small, and while the price reflected the portion size, I still wasn't impressed with the taste or quality. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This spot seems like a cool spot to hang out, grab drinks, and watch games, but the food left something to be desired.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

The menu is great if you want a cheat meal! I got the chili fries and the elote dog. I recommend getting the lobster roll bun instead of the hot dog one! It's super buttery and crispy, similar to cane's bread! read more

The Compound by Dirt Dog - SMALL Dirty Chili Fries, Elote Dog - Hot Dogs Near Me - Commerce, California

Stopped by The Compound and tried the LA Cheesesteak and the Chili Dog, and both absolutely delivered. The LA Cheesesteak topped bacon wrapped dog was loaded -- tender, juicy steak with perfectly grilled onions, melty cheese, and a soft toasted roll that held everything together without falling apart. Super flavorful, rich, and exactly what you want from a legit cheesesteak. The Chili Dog was just as impressive. The chili was hearty and well-seasoned, not greasy, with crispy bacon, fresh onions, and herbs on top that added great texture and balance. Messy in the best way possible. Portions were generous, food came out hot, and everything tasted fresh and made with care. This is definitely the kind of spot you come to when you're craving indulgent, satisfying street food without the hassle of hunting down a food truck or cart. Service is swift and on point. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]The Compound must be the Dirt Dog headquarters because it's massive and is set up like a distribution warehouse.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came here for a music event in the evening and although they typically close at 8:30pm on Saturday, they continued to serve food till 11:30pm for event attendees. I appreciated them for doing that! All the staff were really nice and service was decent. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Tucked away in an industrial area of Commerce, you'll pull up to a large lot with a spacious outdoor seating area with interactive games for kids and a dope mural of Kobe, Snoop, Ice Cube and Nipsey Hustle.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Upon entering, you can order at the bar and checkout the cool hip hop art work displayed throughout the dining area.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They must have some awesome events utilizing the empty warehouse next to the dining area. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The sound system was bumpin and the crowd was vibin the night I was there.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I had the Elote Dog ($12.50), which was a bacon wrapped hot dog topped with corn, lime mayo, cotija cheese, chili powder, cilantro and bacon bits. It tasted just like the street corn I buy from my neighborhood vendors and I'm glad I opted for the buttery lobster roll bread. If I was more hungry, I would've tried the loaded fries, churros and fried oreos with horchata whipped cream! Next time! read more

Tried this place for the first time. It was okay. I got the meal- house dog, esquite, and drink. The house dog has lots of toppings but towards the second half, it was spicy but there isn't anything spicy. Then the esquite was okay but it got salty... Personally, probably won't come again. If I do, I'll probably try the tacos. read more

The Compound by Dirt Dog - Ready for game 3 - Hot Dogs Near Me - Commerce, California

I had no idea what to expect today, but I was seriously surprised. This has to be one of the wildest places I've ever walked into for the first time. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Huge murals of hip-hop artists all over the walls, old-school 90s music blasting, the music I used to spin back in the day when I was DJing. Every song took me back[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. I had no clue a place like this even existed, especially hidden in the middle of some industrial complex. You'd never think thete would be a restaurant, but yeah, there is, and it's a cool one! [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a big bar in the middle, and next door they've got a full-on venue for concerts and wrestling. The whole setup is sick.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The menu? Totally insane. All the hot dogs looked wild, but I ended up going with the Elote Dog. This thing was loaded. Grilled corn, cotija cheese, mayo, chili powder, cilantro, bacon bits, and a fat slice of lime right on top. And this hot dog wasn't small either, you need a fork just to get into it. Every bite had flavor. The corn and lime together hit just right, the bacon gave it that crunch, and the cheese pulled it all together. Super good. This spot was a little off the route I usually take, but now I'm definitely checking out their other locations. This place was a great vibe and Jacqueline the bartender was super friendly and sweet too! read more

Worst experience ever for a party. I went to go see Dani flow on April 3, 2026 and the wait to get in was an hour and half all because the gate person was not doing a good job managing the crowd. He just kept yelling at people instead of little folks in one by one. He always locked the gate and that made people push it. I broke my arm because the crowd was getting out of control.... read more

Gourmet hot dog joint in the middle of an industrial park. The food was hot, exploding with flavor, and was the right portion size. The roads were choppy getting there but the food was worth it. Had the Philly cheesesteak dog and it was delicious. The Serrano peppers brought that spice and heat I needed on a Saturday afternoon. The garlic fries were perfectly cooked and wonderfully seasoned. The pineapple mango Fresca was also delicious. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Hip hop culture vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The cashier wasn't at the register (giving a tour) so the cook came out all smiles to help us. She didn't have access to the computer so she just started taking our order on paper to get us started. The cashier showed up and was also all smiles and took over. GREAT service!! It is overpriced like all food in SoCal but oh well! Too bad it's so far away... I'd be a regular. read more

Had the elite dog on lobster roll and thought I'd died and gone to heaven! This is a favorite lunch spot of my Hubby's since it's down the street from his office - had to try and did not disappoint! Dare I say the most flavorful hot dog I've had in ages! read more

Friends from Taiwan visiting and want to visit a local food place close to the shopping outlet. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Cool place with a few tables.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their hotdogs are what they famous for but the birria tacos man. Fire some beers there as well. Wifey left her sunglasses there and they kept it for her so nice of them. Very good service read more

First time here and I arrived around around 7pm to catch a Dodger game just to find out they close at 8:30pm on a Friday night. I still wanted to try their food so I had their Buffalo wings, fries, and their birria tacos (which I forgot to take a picture of). Overall it was a great experience, customer was outstanding, and the food was bomb!. They do have scheduled Dodegers watch parties so look for those dates on their IG @the_compound_la . read more

Sooooooooo good! so I was able to try three different Hot Dog! I will definitely be back! And the tacos!

Service was friendly. It was our first time and the lady at the bar was very patient and helpful. We ordered a Patty Melt dog. The Patty melt has dirty fries on top with a semi spicy mayo and bacon bits mixed in the cheese. It was perfect comfort food on a rainy day! The dog itself was so juicy and tasty, I wanted another. They are portioned perfectly, satisfied my appetite. [[HIGHLIGHT]]When we went it was empty, however I'm sure this is such a lively place to come and enjoy with friends.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a big outdoor area, and plenty of room and seats in door as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They have free parking just out front. read more

Honestly I will NEVER come here again!! We went to an amazing event last Sunday which was an all girls event held at this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There were too many people and the lines were extremely long for the indoor restrooms and small porta potties they had outside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] So being that it was an all girl event we decided to stand in line for the men's restroom so that we wouldn't pee on ourselves. The security closed the door in front of our face and told me in a bold face lie that it is ILLEGAL for a women to use a "man's" restroom at an all women's event. Which is a LIE and honestly deserves a lawsuit. I asked for the policy and never got one. Next time yall want to discriminate maybe not have an all women event. The service was horrible and the food is not even worth the time. I won't be back. Response to Owners Reply: I saw a max of 3 men at this event who could also use the porta potties, but i guess they aren't for them as well. I could understand if there were multiple stalls but there was 1 stall in the men's restroom and a urinal. There were minimum 20 people in line for each restroom and multiple people used that restroom before it was rudely closed in front of me and i was told it was illegal which again is a lie. I understand the safety of staff but i heard no one say they felt unsafe that multiple people were using that restroom before the door was closed. I was just told it was illegal. Not only was i a customer, i was also a vendor at this event behind the DJ booth so i didn't have regular available access to the porta potties. I appreciate the effort to make amends but your staff should be better trained on what is illegal and what is not. Maybe try making the restroom gender neutral since MOST restrooms in California are. Have a great day. read more

The Compound by Dirt Dog - House Dog SMALL Dirty Chili Fries WINGS! - Hot Dogs Near Me - Commerce, California

This place is a hidden gem of Commerce for sure! Super under the radar being surrounded by commercial businesses. But the food is fire and filling. 10/10 would recommend. The dogs are doggin and the fries are fryin here! Shout out to the one lady holding it down during rush hour! She was hustling and made some nice recommendations for food. Has a bar, booth seating, table seating, outdoor event seating, and life sized games to play like chess, connect 4, and huge lego blocks. Got the Elote dog with the large dui fries. Everything was chefs kiss Nice break from seeing commercial buildings all day. if your in the neighborhood give this spot some love! you can even pose for the ig photo next to the mount rushmore of rap icons blastered on the front of building. read more

Wow. Found this gem whilst driving in bumper to bumper traffic on the 5 freeway. We're vegans so stumbling on a hotdog place that has options for us was a real treat. The Beyond Sausage hotdog with onions and peppers was excellent, the fries were excellent, the draft beer was excellent and cold. The decor is cool and service was great. It's worth venturing into the commercial industrial neighborhood to find this joint. I almost forgot to mention the deep fried Oreos with horchata whipped cream. I rest my case. read more

Food was great but the lady working the front counter on Feb 19 around 4pm was rude ! Got over 40$ in food we were picking up and when you walk in there's no greeting! She Just stares at you like YOUR lost then when I mentioned my order to get a estimated time would be done her reply was "you mean the order you just placed ?, yeah it isn't done yet" . My boyfriend went back in after me to get our food after the wait was up and she did the same thing smh. Tattoes, LONG nails, and looks like she spends more time getting ready in the AM than she does practicing good customer service. read more

After working all morning, I called Dirt Dog to order one hot dog and two fries. Was told it'd be ready in 8 minutes. Cool. My coworker and I split the bill I paid for one fry, he paid the rest. 26 minutes go by. They finally bring his food and tell me my part was voided because we split the check. Huh?! And it was never made. I had to refund the whole thing and head back to work on an empty stomach. Barely got a "sorry" just vibes and starvation. So yeah, shoutout to Dirt Dog for feeding my coworker and leaving me to suffer and starve for the rest of my shift. we wasted our whole lunch waiting on a partial order! read more

Was here last night as my sisters plus 1 for her company's Christmas gathering. Location looks hidden, parking is safe, entrance looks fun. The bar is nice and offers wide variety of drinks.

In town for business and my customer took me here. Located in an industrial area I wasn't sure where we were going but to my surprise there it was. Beautiful mural on the wall, music playing, there is a covered seating area outside. Inside has graffiti art on the walls it was a really nice surprise. I ordered a Patty Melt and my customer ordered a DUI both on lobster roll. We also added garlic fries and a check in surprise of fried Oreos. My customer's DUI had hotdog, carne asada, pastrami, cheddar, cilantro & chipotle aioli, he said it was good with a ton of meat and very filling. My patty Melt was nothing like a traditional patty melt. It was a hotdog, cheddar cheese sauce, fries and bacon bits topped with chipotle aioli. It was good but wish it was more like a traditional patty melt. The garlic fries were one of the best I have eaten. The fried Oreos were perfectly fried and came with a cinnamon whip cream that was fantastic. I will be back when I the area again. read more

Then you should've seen how busy it is" lmao unprofessional asf There wasn't alot of ppl it was pretty empty in dining (Who tells customer that?) There was an event So they were busy on that side That means the regular customers have to have an hour wait when it's literally empty on our side I got a refund and left I hope the manager sees this I hope you enjoy serving hotdogs Gremlin ahhh read more

Good old hot dog & American mural style restaurant. This location is new in Commerce. They have good seating spots both inside and outside. Parking lot too. Churros was exceptional!! I like the corn and elote hot dog too but the churros was far beyond everything else. Mine one was very crispy and not oily. It goes very well with the white cream given together. This is a newly opened location. My recommendation is to go before it gets busy. The outdoor seating is nice to enjoy in daytime. read more

Happy Memorial Day!! The place is pretty hidden behind a bunch of warehouses/ corporate buildings - the first thing that caught my eye was the beautiful mural outside of the famous influential celebrities as the heir version of Mount Rushmore. They have outdoor benches + vibrant booths inside. The service was super great, the cashier was super friendly and sweet. We ordered Asada fries, carne asada tacos, patty melt dog, chili dog, fried Oreos, and a soft drink. Carne asada fries were soo crispy & delicious, it's surprisingly my favorite dish out of the other menu items I ordered. I love thick-cut fries that are soft & crispy & it goes with the guac & sauce to mellow out the umami flavor. Tacos are pretty good, it's similar to other tacos I get at taco trucks. The patty melt had pieces of bacon so it adds crunchiness and ooey goodness of the cheese + the fries are soo tasty. The chili dog was so bomb, chili was meaty and saucey, overall the hot dogs were super heavy and I could only eat half of it. The star of these meals was the fried Oreos with the horchata dip !! Something about hot, soft crisp chocolate-y Oreos dipped with creamy and sweet horchata was a mouthwatering combo! We had to go back and order 3 more after all this we had a major food comatose since they were super fulfilling ! read more

I love dirt dog and all their locations. I've never had a bad experience. Everything is always fresh and service is what other restaurants should aspire to be. As many have said, this location is hard to find. It's in an industrial area with nothing around it. The vibe here is really cool. Spacious both in and outside. Plenty of tables and cool art all over! Dope music playing all day. Prices are fair for what you get. On this visit I tried the D.U.I. Dog. Pastrami, asada, cheese on a lobster roll. Sooo good. My only two complaints (I'm still giving 4 stars though) is 1: I don't like restaurants that cater to dogs. If I'm having lunch, what if a dog takes a poop while I'm eating? Gross. There's indoor seating so whatever. And two: my lobster roll ALWAYS, ALWAYS tears in half at the bottom. Not just mine, but when I go with other friends and family, theirs too. Oh and one more: their asada is much like other places. Too tough and I end up spitting most of it out. Carne asada is expensive so I don't expect quality anywhere. So I just won't order the dui for that reason anymore. Still a huge fan and I'm still going to keep coming back though. Keep up the good work! See you soon. read more

After a long day of shopping at the Citadel, I wanted lunch that wasn't at the food court. It is located in a commercial/business area, the restaurant was tucked away. When we arrived, we saw the banners and a huge mural on the wall, which made the restaurant easy to spot. Inside, it was spacious and had a really cool vibe with hip hop and rap art on the walls, and old school music playing in the background. We opted to sit outside in the shaded seating area, which was really nice. We ordered the elote dog (100% Premium All Beef Nathan's Dog, Wrapped in Center-Cut Bacon, Corn, Lime Mayo, Cotija, Chili Powder, Cilantro, Bacon Bits.), snoop dog (100% Premium All Beef Nathan's Dog, Wrapped in Center-Cut Bacon, Curtido, Henny-Q BBQ, Billionaire Bacon, Gin & Juice Ketchup.), DUI fries (Pastrami, Carne Asada, Cheddar, Chipotle Aioli, Cilantro, Bacon Bits), dirty esquite (Lime Mayo, Cotija Cheese, Chili Powder, Cilantro, Bacon Bits), and fried Oreos. One of the things I loved about Dirt Dog was that they had two options for the bun - the regular hot dog bun and the lobster roll bun. We went with the latter and it was so soft and crunchy. The fries were loaded with toppings and they definitely do not skimp on the portions. And, the fried Oreos with the horchata whip cream was pretty good. Overall, I had a great experience at Dirt Dog. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was fun, and the service was friendly. read more

Came here for a small convention and it was decent I guess. Everything is super expensive and portions are small it's just that kind of restaurant. We weren't too hungry but decided on getting casada fries to share and I felt like for nearly $11 it wasn't worth it you're better off going to some Mexican place like Alberto's instead you get 2x the amount for almost the same price. They also didn't give much meat or toppings at all. The thing I liked most was as being able to get your own drinks even then the cups were the standard small cups. read more

Went here for lunch on a Friday before stopping by the Citadel outlets. The neighborhood was very industrial, but don't be put off by that. The restaurant was very clean, staff friendly, and the food was great. Great music inside and out. There wasn't many people here at this time, but it looked like they were ready for crowds on the weekends/evening with plenty of seating inside and out. They even had a little area for kids to play chess, cornhole, or giant yard lego. We got the LA Cheesesteak which is a limited time item. I couldn't tell there was a hot dog inside based on the picture, but there was one. The dog had a great flavor, the cheesesteak was cooked perfectly, and the sauce really made this "sandwich" next level. We also got the chili cheese fries which were amazing. The chili had an excellent flavor and was very meaty. The fries were crispy and never got soggy even until the last bite. Beer selection seemed like they had something for everyone. Would definitely go back if in the area and try something new. read more
