An absolute gem of a spot. Stopped by on the way back to Illinois, having decided to skip the more upscale choices in Michigan City. A decision that both myself and my traveling companion regard as an excellent choice. The dude serving up the dogs was ultra cool and the food was fantastic. I got the Carolina and Chicago style, she got the Italian sausage. All 3 items were top tier. I'm the first to piss and moan (but never to a restaurant) when someone advertises a Chicago style and there is even one component either missing or incorrect (especially the neon green Vienna Beef relish), but this place has it 100% correct. They even grill up your peppers and onions on the spot, on the little gas range in the trailer.
If you happen to passing by this joint, or if you're in the area in general, stop here. Do it.

This is the best restaurant in Michigan City. I went here three times in one day, and everything we got (Chicago dog, Italian brat, ice cream sandwich, blue berry pie, vanilla ice cream) was extremely tasty & extremely affordable. Cannot recommend enough!

Been here a few times on my way to the beach but will not be returning. When the food is mediocre the service should at least be good! I encountered a very rude older female who became angry when I asked her for a cold soda & some ice! She became irritable & began to complain about her working conditions etc...

Love these old school, mom and pop hot dog stands. They could use a coat of paint, but I'm telling you the Polish. And Chicago style are freaking amazing. They are a must try if you're in Michigan City, checking out lighthouse mall or going to the beach you gotta stop by. It's about 2 blocks East of the giant smokestack. They also have amazing pies, locally made and handmade ice cream killer. Leave a good tip, tell him Jay sent. Yall, keep my man pops thriving.!!

This place is a gem. A quick brat was pretty nice. The key lime pie was so incredible. I have not eaten this pie that many times so this was 100% the best I’ve ever eaten. So damn delicious. You will want to visit just for pie. Make sure to check out this trailer. It is just a trailer in a parking lot, but was on the spot. Go.
