I have never actually been to the restaurant, so I can't speak to service, but we order take out for lunch frequently. They arrive fast and the order is usually correct. I can't even explain how ridiculously good these Korean corn-dog things are. I can't get enough. They are definitely a heart attack on a stick but worth every bite. The batter is not like a regular corn dog but rather a tempura type light and flakey- it's so amazing. I've had the mozz and sausage, the spicy sausage, the regular mozz stick- I love them all. I haven't tried everything yet but the potato one is next on my list. I am not a ketchup person but I love their honey mustard, siracha mayo and sweet chili sauces. DO IT. Follow the hype! You'll be back again and again.

Ssongs hotdogs is quite new to the Towson Town Shopping Center. Placed in between security, the Brass Tap Bar, a high end shoe store, and Claire's. The hotdog itself is scrumptious... the spices are healing to the sinuses and body. I have only had two variety's of the hotdog... and yet fiend for the whole menu. The loaded fries are next on my bucket list. I can't tell if the hotdogs are American Asian...?Korean...? I ... literally, need to know where this hotdog was created. Ssongs hotdog is to intellectual for my tastebuds. I will be there every week until I get a free hotdog. Oh I almost forgot about the pear drink -Xamnesia

The cashier was kind & very helpful in helping me pick out my order. The Korean corn dog I got tasted good but there was a slight issue I noticed. When i ordered my food I could smell something like old oil or just smelly oil. When I got my food it also had that smell didnt effect the taste of the food but did bother me every time I took a bite I smelled it.

Food is great! But service is sadly lacking. Pretty long wait because there was one employee doing most of the work. Shoutout to the female employee working hard to keep the place going. She deserves a promotion. The employee in front was not helping her at all. Smh and then he forgot my topping and seemed surprised when I asked for it. But yes, the dogs are so good! I believe my favorite is the spicy dog with mozzarella. A lot of people order the potato topping, but I like the regular with mustard. Goes great with a boba tea :)

Fried cheese was flavorless & the environment is unsanitary. Employee wasn’t wearing gloves & when I asked if they used gloves after I saw her bare hands touch the hotdog batter, she said no. Will not be returning.

The food portions are inconsistent, sometimes it smaller than others. The kids behind the registers are always on their phones and do not use gloves when preparing the food. Basically the send to be some health violations.

I prefer the one in Columbia because the oil used to fry the hotdogs tastes fresher.Vegetarian options: A cheese only dog.Parking: The restaurant is located in the Mall's food court, so there is plenty of parkingWheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair access is not an issue and there are ramps and elevators locked inside the food court.

I guess you can say I finally followed the hype lol. My little cousins have been telling me about the "Korean Hot Dogs" that have taken TikTok by storm, so after passing the store in the mall several Times, I finally caved and gave them a try. They have so many options that I didn't know which one to try, so I kept asking for recommendations. However, I finally settled on the "Mozz Sausage Hotdog" (I think all the meat options are "Beef"). Big shout out to the ladies running the stand! She gave me a fresh one. But I think their standard is to fry them per order, so it's always fresh (it's a 5 min wait). So they have several sauces to go with the hotdogs, you can choose between the popular ketchup or spicy mayo, honey mustard and a sweet chili sauce. Now you know I had to get each one, just to give It a try and decide which one will be my fav in the future. Now back to the hotdog, It was actually really good. I'll give It an 8/10. It was super super cheesy but didn't have enough meat inside. (Hence my -2 points). I tried It will all the sauces and I would say ketchup would have to be the best to go with It, but the sweet chili was also good. I ended up dipping It in both to give me a little flare. In addition, I think their packaging is super cute and effective. I will say though, if kids are eating this please be careful, as the stick inside is slightly broken, so don't take a big bite at first. You may get a piece of wood. I will definitely be back to try other flavors... Which one should I try next though?

Not the best Korean hotdog I’ve had to be honest. Took a long time to get and came out pretty bland. Hot dog is also pretty small when you look into it. Feels like there could be a better process to help you pick the best dog, sauces etc.

The family and I have had Korean Corn Dogs from a variety of different places on the west coast and east coast. We have been to SSongs a few times and their corn dogs are some of the best that we have tried. We tried the potato coated version and the regular coating and both have had a nice crunchy crispness (the potato one is extra crunchy). We have tried #4 (Potato Mozz), #5 (Mozz Sausage) , and #8 (Potato Mozz Sausage). All were really good. They have a variety of dipping sauces. My girls dont like the sauces but I like the Sriracha Mayo. Now one thing also worth trying are the drinks. We had the Mango Aloe and Asian Pear drinks and they were both really good. The staff there are really friendly. The only downside is that you might have to wait 15-20 minutes for your order. But when you do get it, it's fresh and hot. We have come back a few times so we would definitely recommend it but just be prepared to wait.

Oof, this place fell off HARD.We had an excellent sweet and excellent savory corndog the first time we came a couple years ago, but this time the batter was soft and chewy and the mozzarella tasted plastic and artificial.Lemonade was also nasty--do NOT recommend.Finally, the employee messed up our order and gave us a full mozzarella dog instead of the half mozzarella-half sausage we ordered...which we didn't know until we had eaten half of the thing because the sausage is supposed to be on the other half!Avoid. If you really want Korean corn dogs (which are dang good!) make the trek down to more venerable joints in NoVA.

Looks can be deceiving. Less than half of the $6 Cheddar Cheese Dog actually had any hot dog sausage. Hidden as two measly bite size pieces. Everything else was okay. Overall, a disappointing overpriced fried cheese stick. If I was the owner, I'd take a better look at how their chef/prep staff were trained.

The corn dogs are almost always delicious! The people behind the counter are very kind! However, if you order ahead or delivery they almost always get it wrong (at least got me). I’ve ordered DoorDash and pick up and each time they give me sausage when i asked for a mozz stick, they give me a mozz stick when i want sausage. I ask for spicy mayo-they give me sweet chili. I ask for sugar-no sugar. But, as long as you order there it’s fine!But, sometimes they skimp on the cheese or meat inside so half of it is just fried crust. If the service was better I’d say 5 stars!
