Love the Korean hot dog trend. Delicious gourmet corn dogs with delicious flavors. I always pick half cheese and half hot dog with ramen flakes deep fried. Yummy
Myungrang is a fun twist on the traditional corn dog. There are several different hot dog and corn dog opptiins. There are even dessert options. Outside breading is crunchy. Inside was a half beef and half cheese dog. Several sauce options. Mango habanero sauce has a kick to it. Food is ready quickly. Eat in or take the food to-go. Inside is sleek, with red, white, and black colors.
Stopped in to checkout the new Korean dog spot by home. They have plenty of options and sauces available. We went with a potato dog and a half cheese and half dog. We also got a side of the highly recommended garlic Parmesan fries. The place was clean and service was friendly. We tried a bit of each sauces and all of them were really good! The outside of the dogs were crispy as they should be with plenty of flavors. There is plenty of cheese inside for that cheese pull pic as well! ;) Overall, a good spot to cure that crunchy Korean dog craving!!
My sister and I decided to try out something new. When walking in we were greeted with a smile and she answered all of our questions. We got the mango blended drink which was amazing along with the flaming hot Cheeto mozzarella which was also good. The place is a little small so I'd recommend taking it to go if you don't live too far. We'll be back to try some other ones!
"Corn dogs gained popularity as a Korean street food in the 1980s, but the current corn dog trend--which sees more than just hot dogs coated in more than just cornmeal batter--is generally credited to Myungrang Hot Dog, a chain that started in a market near Busan in 2016. In just three years, Myungrang amassed 650 stores in Korea, taking corn dogs from a street-vendor staple to a franchise darling." ― bonappetit.com 1,100th review! Woo! Our crew came here after going to Seltzerland on Saturday, February 26th, and it was nice! It's a nice and spacious place. We got a multitude of items such as the Squid Ink and mozzarella hot dog and some popcorn chicken. I enjoyed every bite. This location is tucked away in a cozy location. It was a little messy inside but it's fine. I also enjoyed that they offer a lot of dipping sauces for whatever you decide to order.
I've been wanting to try this place for some time now and glad I finally did. The service was good and the place was clean. We shared the 3 dog combo and fries. Each dog had its own unique flavor, my favorite was the mozzarella and the fries were so crispy! I love that they have all the sauces out so you can pick what you want and get as much as you want. My four stars is because it's a little pricey. Almost $40 for the food and my sister got a boba.
It was a pretty quiet place. I was glad it was not right in the middle of westgate as I was not feeling like driving through there. Bestie and I went as we are trying to knock out new food places on our list. Drinks: Strawberry blended drink with rainbow jelly -normally I hate strawberry flavored beverages but I thought this one was tasty and the rainbow jelly tasted like really good fruit cocktail Peach Red Bull with lychee jelly Omg yum. Don't let the price of 6.99 +1.00 for jelly scare you off. I had a peach Red Bull at home and it's only half as good as they make it here. Probably the only way it could be better is to add vodka. It's one of my new fave drinks. Hotdogs: They asked if you wanted sugar, and my uneducated self just asked if that's how people normally got it. The cashier said yes. My thoughts? Do it. Yuuummm. It made the crunch on the hotdogs just barely sweet. The squid ink one looks kind of crazy bc the batter is dark but I do like squid ink foods. Don't skip it. The batter is fun, tasty and has a great texture. I like the mozzarella to hotdog change in the middle. So good. My mini had the original and really liked it. She was asking to go back again and loved her strawberry drink. The mozzarella one was like a giant cheese stick on a stick. I'm mildly lactose intolerant and it didn't stop me. Cheese sticks on a stick should be sold everywhere. The cheddar cheese hot dog was super good as well. I almost wished I ate more of this but I only had a bite. The crunch of these hotdogs is just delightful. The potato one was not for me so aside from getting a cute pic of it, the review was that texturally it was confusing but it was good, and he didn't know if he liked the hot dog more or the sauces. This brings me to the sauces. Sweet chili sauce-tasted like your standard but tasty sweet chili sauce. Cheese mustard-unexpected but tangy and bright. It's a great combination with the cheddar cheese hotdog Honey mustard-probably one of my faves with it. Anything deep fried usually tastes pretty good with a honey mustard. It's not overly sweet or mustardy. Yum. Boom Sauce-this was good but it tasted like a spicy Mayo sauce from your local sushi spot. It was not disappointing but familiar. Definitely come try this place and satisfy your cravings for hot crunchy food with awesome sauces.
Mozzarella dog with flaming hot cheetos. There are about 7 different sauces. I tried sweet chili, mayo and the most popular boom sauce. Crunchy!! Not doughy at all. They staff and maybe the owner I spoke with is so welcoming and nice. The name Myungrang is the original name of the korean hot dog. This business maintains cleanliness and they also have boba different flavors and, what I will be coming back for is the funnel fries! Sounds and looks so good. Party or enjoying alone this is a good hold you over flavorful snack. Enjoy! Come get your fix. Oh ya, make sure you get the boom sauce
I am a fan! I read about this place and had to try it out. It's a chain from South Korea specializing in their own way of changing up corn dogs that has branched into the Phoenix area and their location here near Westgate in Glendale. It's located in a nondescript strip mall area that is pretty new and very inviting. As you walk in, it's a bit small in there but room for a few tables. The employees were very friendly as they helped me figure out what I wanted. I tried the squid ink dog which is basically a corn dog with a black batter and it was covered in sugar. I would say it was pretty good. Very different but pretty good and flavorful. The other one I got was mostly just mozzarella cheese covered in potatoes and then covered in cheese and jalapenos. That one was delicious! Jalapenos were spicy and potatoes were just a cool way to cover up a corn dog. This was definitely a lot of food for just me for lunch. Probably would share with someone next time I go. But definitely a win! I would definitely go back and try more of the flavors. They had all sorts of creative things lined up. Thanks!
I've definitely been wanting to try these. So happy I did. Multiple options sonic your a little shy at first you can go the original route. I love the crunchy ness of the breading. We bought the trio package which comes with original, potato and hot Cheetos. All can be made either half mozzarella half dog or full either way. We went the half route. I used the Boom sauce which was a sriracha Mayo imo definitely good on the potato dog. Make this a go to! I highly recommend and will definitely be back
This place was so over hyped only to get a cheese filled (corn dog) with no dog in it! Food has absolutely no flavor and it's so frustrating to even try and eat it. I won't come here anymore. Paper thin napkins don't help at all....Horrible waste of $40.....
Well after reading about and seeing the pictures of this NEW hot dog place, I could not wait to try it out. What a disappointment! When I entered, no customers at all, was not greeted by staff or ask if they could help. Not having been here before I had questions. They were answered very curtly giving me the impression that the server thought I was stupid. I wanted a dog with meat, which several menu items had no meat. I decided on half and half meat and cheese with potato. WELL the pictures tell the story. 2 1/2 inch of hot dog meat size of my finger, three inches of cheese wrapped in heavy bread, dipped in potatoes and fried. Not good at all. The dipping sauces that I tried were all good. $20.00 for two dogs and one French fry. No I will not be going back. When wanting a good hot dog will go to Costco, now they make a yummy dog.
Stopped by here for some lunch to go. Ordered a couple different ones because I couldn't decide on just one. They were very good, freshly made and I was Happy with the choices I tried.
Service was fine. They paid attention to me when I ordered. Location was easy to find and clean. Good was just eh. The hotdog on garlic butter bun barely tasted of garlic and butter. Costco hotdog is just as good and a better deal. I also got the half and half 3 dog set. They are basically fancy corn dogs/mozzarella sticks. The plain was good. Same with the potato one. Both def ned a sauce as they are too plain on their own. The hot Cheetos one was good and didn't really need any sauce with it. Overall, the food was a good sized. I might come back to try the dessert options but it wasn't worth the trip down here. read more
I hate to write a negative review but I ate here for the first time 2 years ago and loved it. But tonight? Not so much. My sister and I got 3 corn dogs to share all of which were huge and had way too much breading compared to what they use to be. Two of the corn dogs were completely inedible because of the raw dough. And the mozzarella dog was 80% batter. So that was really hard to eat. The employees were super sweet but not being able to eat everything we got was annoying read more

Unique take on the corn dog You no longer have to wait for the fair to come to town to enjoy a good corndog, Myungrang has you covered. Myungrang has taken corndogs to the next level with their unique take on the corndog. On this visit, we ordered the potato dog (covered in potatoes), the original, and fries. The corndogs were tender and juicy, and the cornmeal batter was crispy to the last bite. There are a bunch of different options to select from, including half sausage/half cheese. You can make your meal a combo for a few dollars more. The best Korean corndog in the Phoenix area. The service is great and the prices are wallet friendly, stop by you won't be disappointed. read more

The corn dogs themselves were tasty and filling. The potato dog had a nice crunch, while the mozzarella cheese inside was hot and gooey. I enjoyed the garlic parmesan fries as well. But when I first arrived I was not greeted, which was awkward in an empty restaurant. When I approached the counter the male employee ask "what can I get you?" with a stale face, while leaning on the mini fridge aside him. Personally it irritates me when employees make no effort to say hello upon entering, so that was a big turnoff for my first time in. Also, the Chris brown playlist that was playing in the restaurant was super explicit. It wasn't even the radio version. I'm no square about music but it was just weird for a kid friendly restaurant. read more

Hi Jazmine,…
Came here for dinner one night to check them out! I'm always down for a good corn dog! The location was easy to find and get to, it's right by Starbucks and across from Westgate. The place was clean, and well kept. Seats are limited and the location was small. The service was fast and friendly and helpful. I ordered a number 4 and made it into a meal. By making it into a meal it came with fries and a drink. You only get one corn dog even though the picture shows two. The price is kinda high for just one corn dog but fortunately to me they were plumped. They were yuge!! I wasn't able to finish one because it was so big. I'm not sure how my friend ate three. The overall corn dog itself was okay, not the best, but far from worst. The wiener inside the corn dog was of decent quality. Not bad at all, you'd never guess it was beef. Very tasty and good. The batter of the corn dog could do better. But I enjoyed it. The fries that came with my meal was very good, it was crispy, hot, and salty. Very good fries. It's no McDonald's but still very very good fried. The Coke from the soda machine was not too great. Not sure what's wrong with their coke. It wasn't flat, nor was it low in syrup. But it won't kill you. The honey mustard was very good and tasty. I like that one a lot. I'm sorry I did not use the restroom, so I can not report on it. I totally forgot to use the restroom and do my afternoon two. I was in a little hurry. I'll have to report back next time. But judging the cleanliness of the location, I'm confident it would had been clean and well kept. Judging by the age of the location, it would be in good maintenance too. I'm sure the paper towels and soap and the quality of the toilet paper is good as well. The throne at such a location I calculate it would be stronger than the average house toilet. Just my prediction. Overall a good experience, I'll definitely be back. I'm wanting to try a few more of their corn dogs. And I'm definitely itching to use their loo. read more
Omg...I'm so happy that they have a Korean Hot dog place closer to me but most importantly close to my S.O's place. I had talked to him about taking him to the other spot when he'd let me know that there was one by him. I got super excited and off we went. Browsing through their menu was great. Easy to understand, nothing super complicated and the staff...SUPER friendly and helpful. Their food is fantastic. I've been here a few times and I'm always satisfied after every visit. The batter they use is perfectly balanced between crunchy and chewy. The ingredients used are super fresh and their food os cooked perfectly. I'm all the times we've been, I've never had or heard a complaint. Their sauces are awesome and they even have suggestions on sauce combinations to help if you e never been here before or even if you have and may be looking for your next epic sauce to use. Please try their garlic Parmesan fries. They get their fries to the peak crispiness and with the boom sauce, I was on cloud 9. Their popcorn chicken is absolutely delicious. It was seasoned wonderfully. Please give them a try, you won't be disappointed. read more

Walked in excited to order, just to be rudely stared down and with no one to greet me. I felt super uncomfortable when the lady with glasses looked at me with disgust then as I walked out she closed the door of the establishment. In 2024, a person of colored should not be dealing with this! read more

RAW DOUGH!! Went to get two jumbo dogs for the first time. At first bite it seemed okay because the crunchy outside layer but inside was a chewy uncooked mess. Wouldn't recommend! read more

So if you've ever been to Two Hands (I like to think they are the OG in Korean dogs here in America) this place does not compare in the slightest. Staff was friendly and location is nice but man oh man was I extremely disappointed with not only the presentation but taste of the corn dogs. They were 2 of the saddest looking corn dogs I've ever seen, but maybe I'm spoiled thanks to Two Hands. I've included a photo of what I received here, and what I received at two hands. These were both just standard straight off the menu selections, no add ons or instructions given. Also myungrang was nearly double the price of Two Hands per dog so another reason I will not be back. read more

As far as Korean street food goes, this place rocks! Think... extreme corn dog or mozzarella cheese sticks! And then add cubed potatoes and or hot Cheetos! You can also get boba here and a desert styled on a stick read more

The food was absolutely amazing and every bite was delicious! The service was amazing, the workers were so kind and helpful, giving suggestions and giving us extra spread! The ambiance is nice, busy which is good for business. Wish they had a few more seating options, but other than that a great experience! read more

The corn dogs were phenomenal. The cheese pull was definitely there, but the service was absolutely terrible. The lady who took our order was extremely rude but overall if you're going for flavour and good quality korean corn dogs this is the place. If you're going to be treated nicely would not recommend. Also recommended the regular with sugar sprinkles. read more

The only thing keeping me from giving this place 5 stars is the overall lack of cleanliness in the establishment. I was really disgusted with how the walls, windows, door handles, bathroom, and tables had a layer of filth. That makes me question the cleanliness behind the counter where they are preparing my food. The food was all so good though! I just suggest getting it to go. Just one of the sticks is enough for one person and reasonably priced! read more

This was our first visit and it was a great one. The front counter lady was super patient and kind. We asked her what she thought about the Strawberry Blended Drink and she said it was good - which she wasn't wrong. The hot dogs were very crunchy and fulfilling. You can't go wrong with the food here and the chill, cool vibes. 10/10 recommend. read more

Great Friendly service! Happy they have finally opened. They have lots of hotdogs to choose from. I ordered their Squid Ink Battered HotDog and it had a nice crunch with a soft black batter and melted cheese inside with a sausage frank. Sauces are self serve and my favorite was their semi spicy Boom Sauce! Don't forget to check the bottom of your stick so you know what kind of hotdog it is! Washed all of this down with one of their fruity slush drinks. Can't wait to come back for more! read more

GO TRY THEM read more
