Those hot dogs were delicious especially the Icelandic hot dog since the hot dog links taste premium. The Maxwell Street Polish was also delicious. The fries were also delicious and had the right amount of salt and crispiness. There are kiosks to order food from and the store doesn't accept cash payments. Overall, I would go there again to try more stuff on the menu such as a cheeseburger, and it's a good option for people wanting to crave a quick meal.

This is one of those places where you have to try it for yourself to believe how good they are. Everything was really good. I created my own beef polish and to me it was perfect, but the surprise star of the show was the onion rings. Even the house made sauces are exceptional. It’s worth the price. I highly recommend coming here. Last and most importantly you can get 30% off your order for signing up for text alerts on their website.

The food is surprisingly good and surprisingly cheap. Much better than all the upscale restaurants in which I ate in the neighborhood. The vegan hot dog and fries seemed small but filled me up for the entire day, and were so delicious.

Looking for a Chicago style hotdog? I found a really good one. They are very delicious and good portion. Only thing is you need to grip them firmly because the bread gets soggy after a while. Ordered the small Fries and had fries leftover, very good value. Bas thing was they have no restroom. I don’t know if that’s not a city ordinaince. Good was good

We really wanted to get a Chicago dog while we were in town and decided on Devil Dogs. I had seen really many recommendations and was not disappointed. We ordered the Chicago dog, a bag of fries, and the chicken tenders. I loved the cheese dipping sauce for the fries. We ordered online and walked to pick up. Even though it was busy, there was plenty of room to wait inside. We all enjoyed our food, I would definitely make a stop at Devil Dogs the next time we are in town.

We got the chicken strips and fries they were so good. My son got the vegan hot dog and fries. He said it's one of the best vegan hot dogs he's ever had. I got the honey mustard, my daughter got the ranch and my son got the Asian sauce I forgot what it was called but all three of them were phenomenal because it tastes like all of them are homemade sauces.

Damn delicious. Their authentic chicago-style Italian beef sandwiches are to die for (11). We opted for them to add their own house hot giardiniera, which was great. Also ordered oreo and banana shakes (8) that were very good. Highly recommend visiting, again and again.
