Positives: Great Quality Dogs and Charming Ambiance Areas For Growth: Other Ingredient Quality, Meal Price, and Brand Awareness This place has the makings of a hole in the wall spot I would be proud to show to visitors. Unlike others, I think Dog On It is actually easy enough to find; there is a cheerful, striped awning and a couple of tables with stools. There is no inside beyond the kitchen. A two for one meal deal on Groupon ($11 instead of $23) brought us here for a mid-week lunch. We ordered ahead and were told it would be ready in 20 minutes. We arrived to pick up at the 18 minute mark and our meals were ready for us. The only drinks available were a bottle of water, Coke, and Diet Coke. A meal is a drink, fries, and the hotdog. Oddly, I think the hot dogs are worth their price, but the combos are really not a deal. I would buy my drink elsewhere. I ordered the Mac Dog and my partner ordered the Philly Dog. The Macaroni and Cheese on the Mac Dog was tasty and they allowed me to substitute the Bacon (I'm just not a fan) for Grilled Onions. We both loved the hotdogs and thought they were incredible quality for what is essentially street food. Our biggest issue was the buns. They were smaller than the actual fixings really required and their spongy consistency did not really hold up to the eating process. They were too soft and weak. These are the same hot dog buns you would buy on a trip to Walmart. The fries had great seasonings/salt, but something about them makes that seasoning just fall off. They have the potential to be great if that is fixed. Overall would return and love the character it brings to The Grove neighborhood. read more

Delicious! Tried the Harvest dog here as part of a Yelp event and fell in love! I live close to the Grove and had no idea this place even existed. So happy I got to try it. I had the Harvest Dog with some red hot riplets. The hotdog was the perfect amount of salty and sweet! It was fresh, warm and flavorful. There is a lot on the menu that I still need to try. As for location, it was not the easiest to find, but it is located right across the street from grace and meat! It has a cute take out window and the guy behind the window was friendly and inviting! Will def check this place out again? read more

For a yelp outing, I signed up for this lunch... I thought I was signing up for a volunteer event... Like dog walk or entertaining kids at a nursery. But after reading the description better I realized this was offering me a dressed hot dog. I am not a fan of hot dogs, but already signed up I thought might as well. The Harvest Hot Dog was very tasty almost like a sausage. The bacon was cooked, but I prefer crisp bacon. The apple slices were cooked with sugar. Overall, this dish gave me savory and sweet mix that made me rethink the drink I purchased. Shocked at the little "hole in the wall"... literally order from a side door facing Tower Grove South of Manchester... this place can give this flavor. Definitely worth the trip, but they need some no sugar options for drinks. read more

Fantastic Dogs! They are definitely bringing flavor to the grove! You walk up and order at the window and are met by a friendly smile. I had the harvest dog, tried the hula, and my boyfriend had the riplet dog. I liked the harvest dog...loveeeed the chicken sausage and the bacon on top. I also adored the pineapple s and peppers on the hula! all the ingredients were so fresh! Since you do order at a window, make sure to wear a coat if it's cold! I sat back in my car and came out in about 20 minutes and my order was being bagged up. It would be best if they could text when the order is ready and maybe that is a feature they could add later. All in all, I really like this new restaurant and am glad to have something new so close by! i'll be back to try the philly! read more

If you've driven down Tower Grove Ave before Manchester, you may have noticed a window in the wall of a building that says DOG ON IT and had no idea what you were looking at. Same. I quickly looked them up and found out that they were a brand new hot dog place in the center of the Grove neighborhood- right across from Grace Meat + Three. They have a walkup window where you can check out the menu board, order, and wait for your meal to be made to order. They have 1 table on the sidewalk if you aren't taking your order to go. We ordered the Windy City Dog with mustard, relish, onions, tomatoes, sport peppers, pickle spear, and celery salt. If that doesn't scream Chicago style, then I don't know what does. We also got the Mac Dog with the creamiest mac n cheese topped with bacon. They can sure do mac n cheese right. The owner James and his brother-in-law Desmond are devoted to fresh, fast, service with quality product. As we were eating, we kept commenting on the size and quality of the all-beef hot dog. They also have chicken or vegan dogs if you prefer something different. read more

In an unassuming window in the middle of the block in the grove, you'll find one of the best hidden gems in the city - DOG ON IT. The hot dog is a good size with a good bun and a unique mix of toppings. MY FAV: The "Ripplet" topped with riplet chips, nacho cheese, onions, and BBQ sauce! Also, check out their loaded fries! read more

The red hot riplet dog is amazingly good. I'll be back for it I crave it again and again. I give this place four stars. Your wait time is about 5 minutes. The grape soda is good to but it's in a can its not a fountain drink. read more

As a former Detroiter the lack of restaurants that specialize in hot dogs in St Louis has always puzzled me. We found Dog On It after we ate across the street at Grace and it took us awhile to finally try it. Definitely worth a visit. Dog on It offers a wide variety of specialty hot dogs and some side dishes. We tried the Riplet Dog, the Windy City Dog and the West Coaster. 1/4 beef dogs are grilled just right. The fries are really good and salted just right. The Mac and Cheese is really cheesy with a silky texture. The noodles were a little over cooked though. Prices are very reasonable and the staff are very friendly and helpful. read more

Let me just get this out there right off the bat. I am not a hot dog person. Have had a deep aversion to them since I was a kid and still do my very best to completely avoid any type of linked meat. Yes there's a story. No we don't have to unpack it on the Dog On It Yelp page. But the reason I bring that point up is because today I had a hot dog from Dog On It for lunch, and... well... I might just be turning over a new leaf thanks to this amazing local business' dedication to redefining what a hot dog is! The menu offered by this window service shop is MASSIVE. And the cool part about it is the fact that the hot dogs on the Dog On It menu are just so creative. Today I dropped by and snagged the Harvest Dog, which is the December monthly special. The main reason I gave this bad boy from Dog On It a chance was because it featured an apple chicken link. In my mind I imagined it wouldn't taste like a traditional frank you get at Busch Stadium or take off a roller in QT. And Dog On It's Harvest Dog CERTAINLY was not anything like it. This gourmet creation was so thick. I was surprised to see a knife and fork in my to-go bag, but definitely needed them to slice through the wiener (can i use that word on Yelp without getting flagged?? Guess we'll see.) Anyway, I woofed down this tasty fall-themed treat from Dog On It in the blink of an eye. So excited to drop by Dog On It again soon to try another of their gourmet hot dogs. Really looking forward to seeing the incredible owners of Dog On It enjoy SO much success. You can taste their passion in each bite. read more

Gourmet hot dogs served in the grove. The ordering window isn't actually on Manchester, it's just off the corner at Manchester and Tower Grove Ave. You order at the window. There is no building to walk into so only outdoor seating. Perfect if you are looking for something easy, quick or on the go. Everyone was super friendly and the dogs were cooked perfectly! read more

I'm not a hotdog person but wanting to support local small business, I took my Mom when she visited . She wanted the frito dog but it was near closing so out of chili . She ended up with the red hot riblet dog , fries and onion rings . She said everything was well done and had a hog quality dog which is key . I was pleased to see they do have vegan abd chicken dogs so I may be back to give them a try Made to order so it takes about 15 min which is worth it for fresh food read more

Came over to try the new dog of the month and it was so good! It consisted of mixed peppers, onions, jalapeños then added beans, bacon, guac and topped with mustard! Definitely one people should come by for! This dog doesn't quite got s name for it yet read more

Hot dogs were really good here. I liked the one with Fritos and chili and top that was great. Also the dog with jalapeños on it was very tasty. Located off the main strip in the grove. read more

Ooh! So the window is actually 4300b - it's just around the corner from the clothing boutique. We got the Hula Dog, the Philly Dog, the Mac Dog, and the Frito Dog, and they were all delicious. There were four of us and one dog (and some fries) were enough for each of us to feel really full and satisfied. I had the Hula Dog, which is 100% beef hot dog with pineapple and mango on - the pineapple was perfectly grilled, and the mango was still a little firm, and absolutely perfect in my opinion. Really glad we got the chance to eat here, will definitely be back next time I'm in town! read more

Desmond serves up dog with efficient service and a smile. The harvest dog was one of a kind - a juicy sausage covered with cinnamon roasted apples with a slice of bacon tucked in the bun. This small business (a window around the corner off Manchester) is a great addition to The Grove and all of St Louis. read more

An almost literal hole in the wall, Dog On It could use some better signage! I LOVE hot dogs but was left a little wanting here. There was only one guy working in the place. He said the other worker that was supposed to be there flaked out on him... I ordered the Frito Dog combo. The worker said it would only take five minutes. The Fritos and chili were not very plentiful but the dog itself was jumbo size and very juicy! The fries, on the other hand, were limp and soggy. I put them in the compost when I got home. The drink included in my combo was an off-brand lemon-lime soda. I guess if I try again, I'll bring my own drink and skip a side... if... read more

Yep yep yep this was top notch. Chicago dog- authentic and perfectly cooked! The Hawaii dog- super fun! Apple bacon brat- my husband was drooling. So affordable! Great menu! Definitely a place to pick up lunch for the office. Just need to acknowledge that the order took a very, very long time (but that's probably due to the attention to detail!). read more

Fantastic dog! I had the Harvest Dog which was delicious-- never thought of putting cinnamon spiced apples on a hot dog, but it worked! And the dog was huge, not some wimpy hotdog from a grocery store pack, more like a big brat! Place is a bit hard to find (it's actually on Tower Grove--the cross street), but worth it! read more

Had a great hot dog from here today, both the bun and the sausage were excellent. And my sides of baked beans and potato salad were great. Add in the friendly service and this is definitely a great addition to the neighborhood read more

My kids and I tried it today, and I was surprised at how good it was. I wasn't expecting much, but both the Dog of Italy and Mac dog were good. The onion rings and fries were also great. We'll definitely go back. read more

I bought a Groupon and I go try to get the hot dog, after driving around for 30 40 minutes to find parking because it's pride weekend, understandable! Then we wait in line, then we are told that they do not accept the Groupon at night time.. it does say on Groupen when available, but right after take out or dine in, that meant to me you can only order through the window not only daytime! very unclear! Rather deceptive! and it says it a second time take out and dine in when available nothing about time!! read more

Great Dogs, great owner, exceptional service. If you're out and about in The Grove and looking for a cheap, yet yummy lunch option, look no further. Steve's Dogs is also great, but I feel like Dog On It has juicier dogs and better buns (less chewy) for consumption. I love supporting great places like this and I hope you do too! read more
