The various corn dogs are a novelty from SK. No idea of the trend will die eventually but it sure as hell won’t be staying if the workers forget you food in the frier and act like everything was fine.
Disappointing but mistakes happen. The other food they serve is good but expensive for glorified convenience food.

Noticed this place recently opened at the mall food court. Despite the reviews, I was pleased with quality of the food. I ordered the hot Cheetos corn dog with a mozzarella cheese stick, and it was filled with cheese. The cheeto coating was sadly minimal, but there was plenty in the bottom of my tray to dip the dog into. I've yet to try the beef dog, but my brother seemed to like it. It was a nice introduction to Korean-style corn dogs, as a big corn dog fan, I'll likely see what other places like it are out there!

Comes out to $1.10 per rice cake. Wildly salty, it was practically inedible. Very dissapointing.

I thoroughly enjoyed my Kong dogs. I definitely had to try the cheese Kong dog but it was pretty middle tier, I could’ve done without it. The beef sausage Kong dog is SUPREME. I got the sweet chili Doritos dog and it was just too good. I will be back for another

It’s delicious but I think, they are stingy in the portion, I paid 15$ I don’t think it’s worth it.Thats all in this bowl.
I got the Potato Kong Dog with Beef Sausage and it was very good. The French fries were awesome as well. Prices were what you'd expect from a mall food court, perhaps a little high for a corn dog but the end product justified the price. Expect to wait around 10 minutes or so since they seem to make everything to order which is worth the wait.

Staff is clueless. The crispy chicken sandwich is not placed as an option on the computer. And instead it shows another chicken sandwich which seems to be pulled chicken. And I don’t want that one. I want the crispy chicken sandwich shown on the top screen above them and they didn’t seem to understand the issue so I had to go to another restaurant

I ordered six Kong dogs. When I opened the box at home I noticed they forgot the ketchup I asked for on the side. But it only gets worse from there. The mozzarella filling is sparse and the mozzarella corn dogs are mostly hollow as a result. All the corn dogs had a weird after taste that's just kind of gross. They botched the sweet chili dog. I don't know if they made it poorly or maybe they threw it into the box roughly but all the flavoring on top had fallen off. The most egregious part is that they gave me a completely burnt sweet potato corn dog. I couldn't believe they would serve a completely burned item and took a bite to confirm this. It's one thing to make terrible tasting food but it's a whole new low to think it's acceptable to give a customer obviously burnt food.
I was really looking forward to trying Kong dog and I came out sorely disappointed. I highly recommend everyone to steer clear of this place. It's overpriced and tastes nothing like the ones you can get in the city. To top it off, they'll give you burnt food too.

This place hits the spot every time. People should be nicer to the staff. These are the people who make our food and they deserve a little more respect. I come from about 35 mins away, and they never disappoint !

The workers was professional and are hard workers. They are friendly and help all the customers with great mannerism and very respectful to others.People who go to Kong Dog need to have patiences for their food to be cooked.The Manager and staff are very nice.

Waited 30 mins for an incorrect order and Martin was pissed off that we noticed. Took the incorrect item and put it back in the back to sell after my daughter touched it. Never again ! lol

My food was okay. I am not sure what I was expecting as this was a new place for me to eat at but it was okay. I am not sure it’s good enough for me to return to though. The service was odd. I ordered a kong dog and the cashier totaled my order before I was finished ordering. I then waited a good amount of time for the order and typically I am okay with that because to me it means it’s being freshly made. I would have appreciated knowing this in advance. Most places will tell you the order will be ready in 10 minutes. They did not.

Kong Dog is a chain that actually I have to say is pretty darn good.
I'm giving 3 stars but in reality I would give this place more of a 3.5 to 3.9 ish rating honestly. So I hate to give it three, it is really tasty, super sugary, I only had the original will be back though to try more. The menu can be a bit overwhelming with having chicken, french fries, I say the two corn dogs with a drink is a good combo for roughly 16 dollars I think. For a Corn dog and a drink it was 11 not bad, honestly I would not waste time trying the bubble tea, it looks good but I think the lemonade is better. It is just your typical lemonade I really liked the mango lemonade, it was just typical sugary mango juice with a slightly sour hit but nothing crazy. Went very well with the corndog.
All I had was the original with no sauce and sugar on it. It was good! Very big, a bit of the rice crispy treats on my, I can't complain guessing they make them near each other but that kind off irks me since I hate cheetos so if I had some cheetos on my I would not be to happy.
Now the real complaint is, honestly this place is slow. I get it, the corn dogs are made to order so I respect that, but on a weekend when this place is crowded I cannot even imagine it, in fact I would totally avoid it if I was here for that. They were slow for a weekday honestly it took I would say legit 10 to 15 minutes which looking at other reviews and talking with friends seems to be lucky... again I get it they make it to order so I don't want to be that person I wouldn't complain, I think for self ordering they should have some warning or text system that tells you when your order is ready, I honestly think that is way wiser for a mall to have where a lot of people want to use their time wisely in a mall. Shock for a Korean company that haven't set anything up like that... anyway maybe the physical sit down or bigger locations are better.
I do not like cheese so I only got just a beef one but it was darn good I thought! Huge and really tasty when hot, will hurt the GERD so have some water or a drink ready haha!
My verdict is, I say if you wanna try this place go on a weekday if you can or later in the day on a weekday, it closes at 8pm on weekdays but weekends stays open later. The price is OK but the combos are fair, I haven't tried anything else other than corn dogs on the menu and I do think it the menu pictures makes the other things look tasty but it makes me think they are just trying very hard to cover everything, but the corn dogs I can defend, also like to warn these corn dogs are filling and high in calories, one of them is like near 900 I think it is 800 wow, be aware!
So I say try it, but be aware of the things I face during my time here!

Worst place to try and get a corn dog. Service horrible. I waited over half hour to get different excuses from every employee. The employees didn't start working until the manager came out
NEVER GOING AGAIN!!!
