Food is really flavorful and filling. I liked it so much that I returned after work and got more to take home. You won't be sorry supporting this small business! The owner was actually there and told me that he buys the beef from a local farm called Elm Creek Beef - how cool is that? I got beef street tacos for the dinner I took home and damn, Elm Creek Beef also deserves a shout out! Can't wait to go back!!!

They have merch, frozen meats in the freezer that you can buy and several drinks options, they also have a few breakfast menu options. I ended up going with the Dog of the Day (don't think it is called that but it should be!!) The dog I got I believe was the Jalapeño Cheddar Kielbasa it was soooooo good. I will definitely be back to try more.

The tiny trailer…read morethat Morty has set up at 43rd and Stateline has barely enough room for a person, let alone a functioning kitchen, but it is pumping out some mighty tasty offerings. Morty not only welcomed me, but asked my name, what I did for a living, and how satisfied I was with my job within the first minute of meeting. A natural at conversation and customer service skills - my new best friend that I had never met. While he prepared my dogs, I asked him about the "ripper" sauce that is on the menu. Not only did I get a sample of his handmade recipe, but the origin story of how he discovered it while serving in the military in Germany. It was a sweet / tangy mustard and onion concoction that I will definitely order on my next trip if it's available on his rotating menu at that time. My Chicago Dog and Chili Cheese Dogs were perfection. The Chicago Dog had all the proper fresh ingredients with a Vienna Beef dog and a soft poppy seed bun. With one bite I was transported back to my frequent Chicago Dog lunches when living in Chicago almost 30 years ago. The Chili cheese dog was just as magical with a creamy warm cheese sauce between the soft bun and dog and then covered in a no-bean saucy meat chili...just as God intended. Morty's is only open 7 hours a week - 11:00am - 1:20pm W, TH & FR, so plan accordingly and go meet my new best friend and get a couple of life's simple all-American pleasures.

The menu is very simple - hot dogs, Italian sausage, Italian beef sandwiches, and French fries, with Italian ice available for dessert. The Italian beef is just like I remember from my trips to Chicago. The giardiniera was a little spicier than I've had previously which means I liked it more that others I've had. And the sausage - oh man, you need to try it. They make their own sausage from the owner's father Benedetto Mammina's recipe and it is good and tasty. My only slight knock is they don't currently offer iced tea, but hopefully that's something they can easily add in the future. I'll definitely be returning to check it out again.

To start out I don't think the food I ordered in particular was worth the price. For 2 Chicago…read moredogs, fries and a drink it was about $18. Maybe if the quality of the ingredients were outstanding it would be worth the price but nothing to me particularly stood out to be anything more than run of the mill. Particularly the hot dog itself. The fries were soggy at best. The customer service is mid, I wasn't offended but they did give the food I ordered to someone else first. Probably won't be coming back here. Also bro kept saying "Jy-ro" and a quick google search on the product you literally sell will show you that's not it. probably won't be coming back here It wasn't exactly the experience of a lifetime

Service was phenomenal, immediately was welcomed in and provided suggestions no hestitation. The food was also brought out fairly quickly. It's a nice little hole in the wall spot. Music was just the right volume so you could still hear it but you could still hold a conversation with your table. Will definitely be coming back to try out the chicago hot dog next time but definitely will be ordering the rice and the chicago burger again really soon! If you haven't tried this place I recommend it over anything else that's around here! Phenomenal job Taste of Chicago.

I don't know if I had an off day or what, but the food was not good whatsoever. I order the standard crumble burger and fried mac and cheese bites as the side. The burger ended up tasting completely bland and had no seasoning at all. It seemed like they cooked the meat in a pot and didn't season it after draining the grease. Half the bun was supper soggy, which made it seem like they just scooped the meat on from a pan without draining it. The mac and cheese bites had no flavor outside of the grease taste coming from the exterior. While the food came out fast, the burger was cold from the first bite, which was a letdown. It was eaten directly in the car from walking out, so I know it came out cold. The kitchen could have at least thrown the meat on the grill for a minute to make it seem fresh and hot. The ice cream looked good as it seemed to mirror the old drive in locations that use the soft serve to make shakes and sundays out of. I ended up regretting not just getting a shake for a meal and calling it good.

My only suggestion to make in the hopes…read morethat the owner sees this: maybe work on driving the prices down or making the portion sizes bigger! $12 for a "normal" (6"~) chili dog is a little out of proportion IMO.

A Chicago dog place here in KC! Well Independence!…read more This place is fantastic! I was a big fan of the vibe and the decor! And the guys back there flippin dogs were very smooth and helpful! Couldn't ask for a better crew. The dog I got was delicious and was enough to make me want another... but I was just snacking! The only downside was the fact that they were out of quite a few things. Sadly, if something is one of your menu staples, running out is a bad look. Running out of multiple things indicates needing to have a conversation with whoever orders and needing to have a solid understanding of vendors.
