Now I take a sunshiny crying dog, but I'm guessing you'd like maybe a little bloody dog sweet? And shakes? Omgoodness, the real thing and thick like shakes should be! You can hear the mixer whirling!

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!

Great service. Really nice people in a cool bohemian setting off Hwy 99. Love the artwork all…read moreover. The host explained the menu to us and we got a couple of chili dawgs (Everyone's Fav), hold the sour cream, with an order of fries. Yes, they accept credit cards. They hand you a buzzer that tells you to collect your order and it worked for us from the nearby parking lot. I'm sure the sour cream would have made it even more over the top good but both of us are sadly lactose intolerant and not big believers in dairy subs. However, the seasoned fries were hot and tasty and perfect to dip in the excellent chili. I just lost my soul cat and these dawgs were a perfectly indulgent, guilty treat on a days like these where I need to wash the blues away.

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.

But I was in town with some time to kill, so naturally this was my lunch choice, and it did not disappoint. The ambiance of the place really sets the tone, and those coney dogs with meat sauce and onions just hit the spot perfectly. Nothing has changed in 40 years, save the price maybe. They still give you a card from a standard deck of cards to represent your order number when your food is ready. In my humble fat man's opinion, this very well could be the best coney dog west of the Mississippi. Prost!

My man has never been before so yesterday we rode our motorcycles over for the first time since it transitioned to Third Coast Hot Dogs... and let me just say: yikes. Let's get into it. The spot itself is popular with bikers and has a So Cal vibe to it. If you want to sit inside, the gangster rap is too loud for a conversation so snag a bench outside or prepare to stand if you want to talk. (Also, it's super awkward to sit with a bunch of wasps while N--- this N----that blares over the loud speaker while children run around and play.) We ordered two hot dogs. $10 each. We sat down at an open table that was dirty but after looking around, they all are. I guess clean tables aren't a priority here. It took 35 minutes for two lukewarm hot dogs on a day they weren't busy. My guess is because they don't actually have a kitchen and cook everything on hot dog rollers and hot plates at the bar. I've spent less time waiting for my $1.50 hot dog from Costco with 35 people in line and had it taste better than my $10 hot dog from third coast. They brought everyone else their food but called our number to come grab it from the counter which we could barely hear over the gangster rap. At that point, my man was pissed because now it's starting to feel like they just don't want our business. But still, even after all that time, he grabs our $20 hot dogs from the counter with high expectations, we take our first bite, and are immediately disappointed. My pickled onions were still frozen, the hot dog was lukewarm and bland... I took one bite, grabbed my things, and left our food on the table. If you're craving a really good hot dog with awesome service and a cool vibe... go somewhere else. I was really looking forward to this place too. Bummer.

Seattle Dog (4/5): A great hot dog with a satisfying snap to the sausage. The caramelized onions add a wonderful sweetness, and the layer of cream cheese adds a rich savoriness that brings everything together, though an extra smear of cream cheese would elevate it even further. While $8 initially feels slightly high for a single hot dog, it comes with a side of Fritos (regularly $3 on their own), making the combo a solid value overall. Logistics Tip: Visiting on an early weekend afternoon means beating the crowds entirely, with only a few other patrons around and plenty of easy neighborhood parking. Keep in mind that food is made to order directly by the bartender, so expect a reasonable wait of around 15 minutes for your order to come out.
