A Tasty Stop at The Doghouse!…read more The Doghouse in Portland offers a fun twist on classic favorites. I ordered two Chicago dogs along with their cheesy kicking fries. The plating and overall presentation were outstanding, and you can tell they take pride in the way their food looks when it hits the table. The Chicago dogs were good, but I felt the build could have been a bit closer to a traditional Chicago style. They were not bad by any means, just not quite at the "great" mark yet for that authentic Windy City bite. The cheesy kicking fries, on the other hand, were full of flavor and definitely hit the spot. I look forward to trying more on the menu next time!

I love the idea of this small take-out joint. Entrepreneur quits her regular job to create a small…read morerestaurant. Her daughter also quits to help her out. Lots of fresh made menu items, some with a twist from time honored recipes. I really want to support them, but one problem . . . I've gone two times in the last four days around 11:15am, and they were closed. As far as I know, they should be open at 11am. On Saturday, I saw a young lady come of of the door, so I walked over, and she said the owner wasn't there yet, and invited be to come back in 30 minutes. i finished my other arrands and came back 40 minutes later, and they were still not open. I parked in the lot behind the tiny restaurant and waited another 10 minutes before finally leaving. Three days later, I came by at about 11:15am again, and they still hadn't opened. I understand the challenges of a small business, but someone needs to understand the importance of opening on time! I'm not on a clock for work, but if I had been and clocked out to go for lunch, and they weren't open 20-25 minutes after they should be, I'm not sure I would ever go back. I will give them another chance, because I want to support them. I will stop by after 11:30, and hope they are open. UPDATE: I decided to give them another chance and I went by for the third time in six days. This time i waited until 11:40 because the last two times it was closer to the opening time of 11am. SHOCKER!! They were still not open, or even looking like they would be any time soon. The front door was locked, the chairs outside were still stacked and there was no sign that anyone was around. For me, that's strike three. You would think a small business would do all they could to be open on time. And if you have a valid reason for not being open, leave a small not at the door. I'm sure the food is good, but I won't waste my time driving the 4 miles to try again. Sorry ladies!

Zach's Shack is the total da bomb in a good way of course, in SE Portland. It's got that laid-back,…read moreworn-in charm with kind of a late '70s punk dive vibe, but in the best way possible. Dim lighting, no frills, not pretentious at all. Just good vibes, good people, and amazing hot dogs. I was doing a hot dog crawl and Zach's Shack easily took the top spot. The menu's limited, but what they do, they nail. Indoor Outdoor seating, cornhole, ping-pong, and affordable drinks make it a great hangout spot, especially when the weather's nice. It's the kind of place where you can actually talk to people, easygoing, local, and full of character. The bartender was amazing so If you're into unique, unpolished, authentically cool bars with killer hot dogs, this one's a must.

We also got a junior burger to try I thought it was good to the extent that it was also soggy because of the watery sauce. Otherwise the burger was good I'd order without the sauce. The French fries were good reminded me of five guys. They also aren't stingy with their soda syrup so 10/10 for that. The service was great no complaints they were all polite and helpful. Was greeted upon entering and leaving. The decor is giving retro, I thought it was fun and I loved reading the story of the owner getting a loan for a friend they named a burger after "Rich Boy" 2 short Coney Island 1 junior burger 1 platter of fries 1 large Diet Coke Paid just under $21

Third Coast Hot Dogs is a side hustle for a motorcycle repair shop and a cyclist hangout…read more It joins Portland multi-businesses which serve drinks along with their main business. A favorite a while back was a thrift clothing shop with a bar in NoPo. They have their signature dog toppings, beer, and mixed drinks which can be made without alcohol. Hot dogs, the humble tube steak, rest on the horns of the dilemma. They are not that healthy but they use the whole animal. Sonoran hot dogs came across my radar a few years back, so sometimes I seek out new dogs. Third Coast is a hard-working one person machine. Sage takes the orders, pours the drinks, puts cross-hatch marks with a mold, grills them on an electric grill, toasts the buns, and assembles with toppings. Order at the bar, bring cash, listen for order up, self buss. We had the San Anto and the Amarillos. I think the Amarillos was more successful with the sweetness of the BBQ sauce. There is plenty of seating, and plenty of street parking. They can do vegan and gluten free.

Confused why all toppings and buns need to be vegan when real meat hot dogs are offered? I love…read morebacon - vegan bacon is a disgusting, highly-overprocessed mess...I prefer mine to be naturally growed from real swine. Is it THAT difficult to offer real bacon and cheese in addition to the vegan selections? Especially for a hot dog hovering around $10!! Just bizarre and frankly (no pun intended), annoying as a customer who was not aware of this before driving over to try it out. Additionally, it's so confusing. Is it a motorcycle repair garage? Saloon? Hot dog stand? Are they ever open? The first time I tried to go, I drove away because it looked as if my directions had mistakenly led me to a dingy, run down garage. Overall, not recommended, none in our party care to return. If they're so vegan conscious, maybe just focus on that so us legit carnivores don't waste our time with a sad dog in a vegan bun with unappealing toppings. Super meh, solidly MID, as the youths say.
