    Big beef hot dog
    Barbi B.

    DELICIOUS hot dog and super friendly goofy guy! I had no idea it was right next to the road which cracked me up, and as we approached he greeted me and my friend with a "yippeeee!" He answered my questions and put the toppings on my hot dog exactly how I wanted! Gonna recommend this spot to everyone I know!

    I'm the lucky one today Troy! This guy is the best. I see big brick and mortar Doghouse in his future. Wonderful service no matter the day or weather with this dog cart vender. He is a hot dog legend with added items like sausages and meatball Sandy's on Thursday and Fridays. Come give Troy a try. And you won't be sorry you did.

    Jumbo chili dog with sauerkraut and brown mustard

    Not all hot dog stands are created equal. Apparently this one has been around for over 20 years and I can see why. Super friendly guy runs this one man show and apparently he makes his own chili. It was my first time visiting even though I have passed them on numerous occasions. To quote the famous Arnold Schwarzenegger "I will be back"

    Great sausage sandwich, awesome customer service & credit cards accepted for 0.25 cent fee. Can't beat the prices! Also, owner informed me that he closes the 2nd week of July every year.

    Large hot dog

    One Lucky Dog is a roadside gem. Skip the drive through and hit One Lucky Dog instead. I ordered a full meatball sub and a large hot dog. The meatball sub was "ok", but the large hot dog was great. It was one of the few instances when the food truck hot-dog comes out better than making it yourself on the grill! There's a bunch of free toppings to throw on (I chose ketchup, mustard, and sauerkraut). Price--I only paid about $8 for everything. There's a 25c charge for using a credit card, but everything is so reasonably priced that it isn't even an afterthought. The owner genuinely seems to be glad to see new and returning customers. He is truly a man with a gift for making conversation and putting people at ease. He put my food in a bag with a fork/knife, or plenty of napkins, and two mints. I'll be back for another lucky dog soon.

We both enjoyed our first few bites, but then they got to be overwhelming and felt heavy and hearty. My husband loves salt, but he said the chili was salty even for him. For him to say that says a lot. They sell merchandise such as tshirts, caps, coffee cups, magnets, and bumper stickers. There is a bench out front and patio seating in the back. My husband said he wouldn't make a special trip back, but if he were in the area he would come again.

It seems like it has quite the following as every time I go there are more and more people. The hotdogs are pretty standard, but the toppings are creative and make it an experience. It really is just a down dirty standard dog, done gangster style. This is perfect because it is not an overly fancy hotdog for my kids, but I can make it fun and flavorful for myself. They also use quality buns! Not only the dogs, but the Mac and cheese doesn't look anything special, but believe me... it is! Is like gooey noodle gold. On the hot dog, as a side, doesn't matter. It's just good. Only downfall is seating. There just isn't any. They have one bench outside the shop, but it might even belong to Rita's. There is seating for Rita's out back, but most people are pretty much tailgating in their cars or sitting on the curb. I took mine to go so my kids could sit somewhere with a table.

There are over a dozen interesting hotdog combinations, all named for notable gangster figures. My dining companion ordered the G- Man, which included Chorizo (cowboy) dip, cheddar cheese, diced jalapenos, and Fritos. Even a week later, my dining companion would like another one!!! I wanted to try the chili on a dog but can you believe it even at 11:45 they were already sold out of chili! I kept it plain and ordered the OG with red onion and ordered a side of macaroni and cheese. Normally, I don't like macaroni and cheese with liquid cheese sauce, but this was the first time I've had a cheese sauce that was thick enough that it didn't fall off the individual macaroni pieces. It was totally delicious and I will absolutely or the macaroni and cheese again! There are a few small tables outside Dirty Gangster Dogs. But the owner invited us to sit at one of the dining tables in the Main Street Bistro adjacent to Dirty Gangster Dogs. They recently opened a second location in Historic Ellicott City. We will visit Dirty Gangster Dogs again!

Veggie and turkey dogs are available. We got the kingpin. The flavors were fantastic. Husband and I both rated it a 4 star because we want the hotdog grilled or something a little extra. However, we pushed it to a 5 star because our 2 year old took no prisoners with the kids dog. He still can't stop saying hot dog with ketchup 3 hours later.
