50 Best Hot Dogs near Cicero

“It's a great ,greasy, hotdog joint. It was as expected. Nice clean and quick. I love the people who left a bad review because there were no tomatoes on the hot dog . Get over it that's how THEY make them there it's a hot dog it is what it is. I never had a bad hot dog ?.“

“This place has been here for years. The Italian beef and sausage combo is the best I have had. The burgers are freshly cooked and have great condiments on it. Their meal deals are priced just right and have different choices to pick from. Come here instead of others the food here is better!!!“

“I visit twice in 2 weeks. I have been coming here for many years. Scatchell's your beef sandwich never disappoint me. What really puts them over the top is your homemade hot peppers. But I would like to suggest that your food handlers use plastic gloves. I observed one of your workers rub his nose and then made a sandwich (it wasn't mine) 😓“

“The Ontario Ave in Chicago was fabulous. My husband and I both enjoyed our Chicago dogs“

“Red Hot Ranch is amazing. I appreciate the staffs and managers kindness to me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. Owner Brad is very nice. The restaurant is in good condition. Chicago style hot dog is wonderful. Must come back. 10/10.“

“Solid great prices always people in and out all day and night.“

“They offer a hot dog and a double hot dog. I thought who needs a double hot dog? Well when we got the single hotdogs, it looked like a tooth pick nestled inside a bun. So YOU need a double hot dog when you order a hot dog. They have fresh cut fries, but they were a little overcooked for my taste. I had a double burger l. It was necessary to double it a single would've passed me off like that hotdog. But the food was good. The service as well. And it's very affordable, with the single hot dog w/fries going for less than $5 and the double burger w/fries going for $7.“

“Best Hot Dogs in Chicago! I drive from Indiana just for a Mighty Dog!“

“Budacki's is a classic neighborhood stop for fast eats. It boasts a broad menu of comfort food, from Polish dogs Chicago-style to gyros and Korean fare. It's not a large or contemporary space, but around rush hour, you'll find it full of regulars from blue and white collar workers to young families and school kids. If you're visiting, there are other spots that do something similar. But if you're new to the neighborhood, be sure to make the trip, and you'll easily find yourself a regular too.“

“Got The Dogzilla and The Lord Byron burger, both Byron's style. Staff was very nice and quick and the food was great. If you're ever in the area, make a stop here. It's worth it. Awesome place and good food.“

“Being from out of town I had to try a Chicago style hot dog! So glad I did! Atmosphere was friendly, the gentlemen working were great. Seating is outdoor but it was comfortable. I really enjoyed it! Will definitely have to go again.“

“I was only here for a few days but had to get a Chicago Dog! It was the best Chicago dog I’ve had in my years visiting. That poppyseed bun! I can’t wait to come back and try the unique dogs and sausages they offer. Cool art everywhere and just a good vibe. The pickles and the sport peppers are incredible. Highly recommend for anyone who wants an authentic Chicago dog or something even more unique! Also service was kind and quick!“

“Been going here years. Always up for a Hot soy special or a Big Baby“

“They have THE BEST Chicago style hotdogs .“

“Nicky’s Hot Dog is a must-visit spot if you’re in the Hotel Central area for a business trip. I arrived around 11:00 am, and while foot traffic was light, parking was still scarce, possibly due to sharing with a neighboring business. The place is tiny and old, with no updates to the exterior or interior, but that’s not why you’re there. I skipped the namesake hot dog and went straight for the Italian beef sandwich.

They used to be cash-only, but now they accept major cards, which was a relief since I don’t carry cash. The workers are packed into the minuscule kitchen like sardines, but ordering is straightforward. Just tell the guy at the counter what you want, and he writes it down on paper. A couple of minutes later, your order is ready.

There’s nothing fancy about Nicky’s, so if that’s what you’re after, head to a major chain. I ordered a beef sandwich with fries and an RC Cola for around $14. The sandwich came wrapped in foil and paper, with the bottom half soaked in beef juice. The beef was perfect, the bread was soft, and the hot peppers were just right. The sandwich was delicious and paired perfectly with the golden fries and cola. I’m so glad these places still exist, and I have much respect for the workers who move at warp speed to handle the orders, especially as it got jam-packed as soon as I left.“

“I stopped by J's Corner for lunch break, ordered a polish with everything, comes with free fries. THE best polish I've had in a long time. Been trying other restaurants, but nothing compares to this. 5/5 in my book, classic menu selection with good prices, will try the bulgogi that everyone raves about next time“

“Chicago for life great food 24 hrs 7 days“

“Fantastic chilli cheese dog.“

“Had plant- based and beef sausage corn dogs. Excellent. Really tasty. Highly recommend.“

“Food is absolutely delicious5, everything I've tried. I'm ready to have it again. I just wish they would trim the one inches high entryway outside a bright yellow. I've even red around the yellow to draw attention to the "trip", at other establishments. It's just an accident waiting to happen. Thank you.“

“I am a very huge fan of smaller scale restaurants that can be found hiding in the city. Family-owned businesses are typically the ones that have the best food because they do not necessarily look into mainstreaming menus and recipes. with smaller restaurants, you can typically find amazing price opportunities as well as some unique food that has not been released to the broad market. It almost makes locations like this become a treasure if you come across them. Huge shout-out for Lola's. Amazing dogs, burgers, shakes! give them a try when you get the chance. For me, it was worth every penny!“

“Iconic!! Came here in 2009. Great food at a great price! If you come to Chicago, you have to try Jim’s!!“

“A basic, unassuming hotdog stand right next to the Field Museum. They have the regular Chicago dog (onions, mustard, tomato, sport pepper, celery salt, pickle spear). They also have vegetarian and turkey dogs as well as polish dogs. You can have the basic toppings mentioned above as well as chili, cheese, and sauerkraut. You can also purchase water or canned soda and chips. All combos (dog, chips, drink) appear to around 10-11 dollars (prices reflect a 3% cash discount). You can enjoy one after leaving one of the museums while checking out water views!“

“The quarter lb. chubby Vienna dog done on the grill is great, the fries are great and the service is great. My second experience and they are above par. So worth the vist. A quaint place with charm and good food.“

“Horrid! As a native Chicagoan I never expected to be disappointed by a neighbourhood hot dog stand. Yesterday, for the first time I went to Jr’s Red Hots. For starters they messed up the order of two hotdogs with fries. Instead we received two overcooked polish sausage with greasy fries. I couldn’t consume more than two bites of either. It was obvious the grill and oil from deep fryer aren’t routinely cleaned. Failed on a grand scale!!!! Never going back to Jr’s.“

“Lulu’s Hot Dogs is a hidden gem in University Village. I swung by for lunch and grabbed the 2 Hot Dog Special with fries and a drink. The dogs were loaded with all the classic Chicago toppings—mustard, relish, onions, pickles, tomatoes, sport peppers, and a sprinkle of celery salt. The fries were crispy and perfectly seasoned. The staff was friendly and quick, making the whole experience even better. If you're in the area, this spot is a must-visit for authentic Chicago-style dogs.“

“The worker Zhyldyz was so kind and patient:). I believe she was alone but she was still kind even though being alone. She worked at a good pace and got our stuff out with good timing:). I could tell everything was made with care xD. I hope she had a wonderful rest of her day! ♡“

“Donald's has had consistently delicious food for as long as I can remember. Their soups and chili are made fresh every day. The food is so well prepared and always hot and fresh. The service is phenomenal. You get in and out with their very friendly staff.“

“Don't let the overall look of this place fool you It might seem like an out of place small almost empty restaurant right next to the sidewalk, But the food is delicious, Very friendly staff of 2 at the moment.

Service was very fast in and out within about a minute well worth a stop, I am looking forward to trying out some of their other menu items 🤤 my one and only complaint if I had one is that there is no porking available for them at the moment 😭“

“Just arrived to Chicago !! Breakfast places were kind of packed. However, we had this place at the bucket list and decided to try it. We order the Chicago hot dog and the New York style. Please order it with the polish sausage it’s worth it. Excellent for a fast bite and great portion.“

Family still operating the restaurant and it’s a true blessing to us a long time customers“
