Serious EatsMay 24, 2013The Frips: There are no fries on the menu, instead the side of choice is freshly frips, which are extra thin, crispy, and fantastic.
Free wifi, expertly presented dogs, always great music. Personnally I like the fries more, but DO NOT pass up the frips. Must stop in Lincoln Park.- Great specialty dog spot all around. Check out the gourmet sausages, particularly the Buffalo and Elk without any modifications
- Chili cheese frips alone are worth a stop in but make sure to get a gourmet sausage like elk or venison & the t-dog to make it super special.
Anton ShusterJune 30, 2015Their "Chompers Gourmet Alligator Sausage" is smoked alligator sausage, caramelized onions and sweet chili sauce.
Miranda GodwinMarch 21, 2015All the food here is delicious, though they go heavy on the celery salt and seasoning salt
- The Snoop Dog and loaded frips are delicious. I also like the corn dog.
Mariana De LuccaApril 14, 2013If you like veggie dogs, get the Chicago Style. Music selection is also awesome.
Mel KernoJune 14, 2015Expensive! They kept taking orders to the wrong table then the worker proceeded to argue with me. They tried to make good of it by offering a free soda but the attitude already ruined the meal

Ross W. Berman IVOctober 29, 2011A plucky little place. Diamond in the rough...maybe, I don't know, it may have caught on, I wasn't really paying attention
Daniel Di TomasoNovember 16, 2014Takes for ever for your order to be ready. The hot Doug is just whatever. Would not repeat.
