Visiting from Atlanta, I stopped in at this little spot on Woodson Road and it did not disappoint. The building itself is colorful and hard to miss, with the Vienna Beef sign proudly up front—so you already know the hot dogs are going to be legit. I ordered a Chicago-style dog and it came out exactly how it should: poppy seed bun, loaded with onions, sport peppers, tomato, and a big crunchy pickle spear. Fresh, flavorful, and perfectly balanced. No ketchup in sight (as it should be).
Also tried the burger and fries—burger was juicy with that classic griddled flavor, and the fries were hot and crispy, served in a generous portion. They even hit that sweet spot where the fries stay crisp under ketchup. Overall, this place gives you everything you want from a true hot dog and burger stand: quick service, affordable prices, and quality food that tastes homemade but with that old-school Chicago stand character. If you’re craving a real Chicago dog or just a solid burger and fries, this spot is worth the stop.

Best hot dog place in the st Louis area, better than any franchise that churns out hot dogs like a factory. Great selection of dogs, I'd highly recommend the Chicago dog. There fries are incredibly good too, a little salty but I like em that way.

The service is awesome but the food is off the charts good. Our favorite is the Chicago Italian Beef Sandwich with Au Ju. Everything is good there.
I drove through and brought it home. My favorites are the Rueben Dog, fries, and cherry coke.

Got in the drive thru by accident. No regrets. Cheaper hot dogs with good quality.

Great classy drive in for delicious hotdogs and burgers! Service is fast, everything is a good price, and portion sizes are generous. Indoor and outdoor seating are both limited, and customer service has been great each time I have visited. I am excited for my next visit. Woofie dog and double burger is a solid order!
