a person holding a hot dog in front of a truck
Joanna C.

My husband and I just wanted a quick bite while we were walking over to bourbon street so decided to stop for a lucky dog. We paid 6.50 for the jumbo dog and I must say it was very tasty. Total for lunch came out to 15.00 which included two hot dogs and a coke. The gentleman that served us was so polite and offered us all the fixings for our dogs. The ambiance was great we were about o catch a few jazz singers in the square while we ate our dogs. If you're looking for just a quick bite stop over and grab yourself a lucky dog!

Bourbon St .. lucky dog

Drunk people food for sure .. this local favorite definitely hit the spot after a night of drinking and bead throwing.. Found this place on the corner of Bourbon & Bienville.. I spotted it from a distance and kept watching people enjoying this street food.. finally after lots of alcohol we stopped by for a lucky dog before our walk back to the hotel .. hotdog, chili, mustard, ketchup, onion on a soft bun.. $6 Fast & friendly service .. check this street food cart out .. you won't be disappointed

Rex " Santa " saving lives with hot dogs!

Rex "Santa " saved us twice with the chilli dogs. The first night he didn't put as much chilli as I wanted but the second night I told him how I liked it and he delivered with a smile and a twinkle in his eye. I had already called him Santa then Larry reminded me hey don't call him Santa ( I had been drinking) it could slip out. When I asked him his name he said it's Rex but they call me Santa! WTF!!! I knew it! Only he could fix delicious coney dogs on the corner on Bourbon Street . He had moved locations. Ok the hot dog was the 1/4 hot dog with chilli, onions and mustard... look it was dang delicious and it reminded me of home ( Detroit). It's a hot dog cart and I been drinking and I visited 2 days in a row! Yes, he used plastic gloves to prepare the precious dogs! I will visit again especially when I need to soak up those hand grenades!

"Lucky Dog" saved us twice. It's a perfect and inexpensive way to soak up all of the liquor that was consumed. Our first night on Bourbon St we hit hard and fast and came across this stand that had wonderful beef hot dogs with chili, onions and mustard... what we call in Detroit a "coney dog". It wasn't a little punk hot dog either it was a light weight meal. On Sunday after waling tours and more drinking we wanted another one and with great luck we found the same vendor as we did the first night. Now there were many vendors but we preferred "Santa" because he was cool, informative and the dogs were tasty.

How do you give 5-stars to a hot dog cart vendor? Well the dog is just that dang good. I can also say that based on two different Lucky Dog experiences in NOLA and neither occurred post late night NOLA drinking as I gather pairs nicely with a Lucky Dog. One location was on Bourbon Street and just had to grab a Lucky Dog at the airport before leaving. Silly as it may seem my experiences were really good.

A perfect dog.

Someone wrote this was low quality food. No way. It's not haute cuisine, but just good ol' all American hot dogs. A sprinkling of diced onion, a squirt of ketchup and mustard (with chili, if you want) on a soft, warm, steamed bun. The perfect American comfort food. Nothing fancy, nothing spectacular- just good, simple hot dogs. (And big, too.) As to safety- I had to wait today while the cart man got finished setting up, because he was aware the health inspectors keep a close eye on them. He had a thermometer in the hot dogs, making sure they were kept at the proper temperature. Nothing to worry about here.

dat dog!! for vegetarians? pescatarians?…read more definitely!! my three girls wanted dat dogs during match week. so, we met at dat dog. a favorite of theirs since undergrad. coming back seemed like a full circle. my daughters went with a combination of their vegan bratwursts and smoked apple sage dogs. i went with the fried cod. the build your own offers endless options. add sides of tots, fries and onion rings. ask for a side of the blackberry sauce for your tots. you will thank me later. parking can be a challenge. try to order before happy hour ends. we missed that by 3 minutes. build your own options for vegetarians and pescatarians beer-battered fried cod vegan bratwurst vegan smoked apple sage some of the endless toppings cheddar cheese blackberry sauce chicago sweet relish dill pickle spear jalapenos fresh onions grilled bell peppers dat sauce dill relish cole slaw grilled onions tomatoes pico de gallo satan sauce mayo creole mustard bbq sauce buffalo sauce

Terrible experience. Went out with friends for a quick bite. Our friends got their food pretty…read morequickly. Ours never came. We waited 30 minutes. When we approached the counter to let them know what happened, they said someone else must have taken our order. Then they refunded only our food. The guy even said "well there was nothing wrong with your soda." Whe you refund a mistake that badly, you refund the whole experience. Won't be back.

It's a 24/7 two story Krystal on Bourbon Street...how much more can I say?! And talk about knowing…read moreyour audience! In all my stories about my NOLA trips over the years, a constant is always this Krystal location! As a southerner that grew up loving Krystal, seeing the bright lights on Bourbon after a night in the French Quarter seemed like square-pattied and chili-fried destiny. While the menu and offerings of this location are mostly the same as all other locations...this Krystal also has a daiquiri bar! That's right, get you a Krystal and a daiquiri! They actually call it a "sak and a dak", and I am here for it! I usually get my go-to, which is always a number 1 with cheese and chili cheese fry. Always comes in clutch and always hits the spot! Service at this location is next level. They are friendly and fun from start to finish. Cleanliness and condition are tough here, I am sure due to the crowds from Bourbon. It's honestly noticeable from entry to exit, whether eating in or getting to go. The space could use some TLC. Overall, this Krystal is the mecca of Krystal locations. If you find me on Bourbon, there is a 100% chance you will find me at this Krystal at some point during the same visit.
