    Chicago dog
    Laura K.

    A simple, delicious hot dog. Great friendly service and fun, nostalgic diner vibes. A staple when visiting Mackinac.

    The giant hot dog on the roof is fabulous! The hot dogs were ok. We tried a goof long and a Coney dog. They have an interesting grill or char but nothing made them stand out.

    As many times as my family has visited Mackinaw City, this was my first time at Wienerlicious. I had the Reuben dog and the 'kraut was generous, and the 1,000 Island dressing was a perfect topper. My daughter's bratwurst was huge. And the waffle fries were perfectly fried and delicious. Great stop!

    Mackinac dog and cheese fries

    Stopped into Wienerlicious while passing through Mackinaw City and was seriously impressed. I tried the Chicago Dog, Mackinac Dog, and the Coney Dog -- all were packed with flavor, made with care, and had that perfect snap. The waffle cheese fries on the side were crispy, cheesy perfection. What really stood out was the staff -- super friendly, fast service, and great energy all around. This place doesn't just have fun with its name -- it delivers. If you're in town and craving something quick, local, and delicious, this is the spot.

    Serious question. You're driving down the street and you see something like a 150 foot long massive hot dog affixed to the top of a building...how do you not stop there? I don't know. So I stopped. This place is a celebration of the hot dog. They've got all kinds. It's not haute cuisine, but it's priced accordingly. I had one with chili and cheese with an order of waffle fries and it was both delicious and filling. The vibe inside was slightly crowded and a little loud, but there's outdoor seating as well for those of you who need a bit of elbow room. Order at the counter, wait for your number to be called, chow down. For what this place is, (a hot dog joint in the shape of an old school diner), it's pretty good. Definitely worth the price and a solid option if you're in the area and in the market for quick and easy bite to eat.

    Our review is as follows: For being called Wienerlicious, the hot dogs were hugely lacking if at best. Good flavor, but lost in the buns (we had an all beef, Chicago, coney, and a Reuben). The milkshake was also to be desired not being made out of ice cream, but ice milk. The amount that was spent on these five items and the product quality was very poor. As for the fries, we really liked them and would enjoy ordering them again if we entertained coming again. The restaurant was clean and tidy, and courteous service was given.

    If you like hot dogs, then this is worth a stop. The only risk is that you might wreck your car staring at the gargantuan hot dog on the roof. Stepping inside, it does have a 50s diner vibe with stainless steel counters and bar stools. There are a variety of different dogs to try. I really wish I had tried one of the sausages, but I decided on the Reuben Dog because...well, I like a good Reuben. This was not a good Reuben. The dog was topped with a pile of good sauerkraut. It was billed as having Swiss cheese, like a Reuben is supposed to have, but there was none. There was a drizzle of 1000 island dressing on the top, but it wasn't noticeable in the taste. Most disappointing was the dog itself. It was the average blended type dog, the type you may have tried at a cafeteria. Even smothered with sauerkraut, there's no getting around the averageness of the dog. I got waffle fries as a side. They weren't bad, except that they weren't fresh. They were a bit soggy, but the seasoning was good. The order was served up quickly, and the cashier was friendly enough. But, I'm not sure if that's enough to make me want to order from them again. But, that massive hot dog on the roof? That will be a fixture in every trip up this way from now on.

    Vegetarian hot dog

    We stopped here because it was a short walk from our motel and had the veggie dog. We did only notice it from the giant hotdog on the roof. Prices are a lot higher than I saw online. One veggie dog was 4.99! I think we spent $45 for two people. You pay extra for chili and cheese and they put the smallest amount of cheese I've ever seen. Waffle fries were old. It was mediocre and not worth the price. Also don't tip, they still give you old food. This is an order and wait for your order number to be called establishment. Too Bad we wanted to like it.

We both had fish, my wife the walleye and me the whitefish. (I had it blackened and it was a couple extra bucks though. I've never seen additional fee for blackened.) BUT nonetheless it was EXTREMELY delicious. They also had a wide variety of craft beers. It was crowded but got in after only about a 5 minute wait. (too cold for the outside seating area). We were in the back by the pool table but wasn't too bad and not too loud so we could carry on a conversation.

It's the kind of spot you go to while waiting for the boat--but it's more than just a time-killer.

No frills, no fuss--just a relaxed atmosphere and a reliable place to grab a bite or a drink. It may not be flashy, and I don't have pictures to show off, but The Key Bar is the kind of spot that doesn't need them. If you're in town, do yourself a favor and stop in. It's the real Mackinaw City experience.

They are now out of Snicker's cheesecake or baked potatoes now. Ok. No appetizers on their menu. Huh. Ordered ahead an Oreo cheesecake and a 4 berry pie, since they seem to be runny out of stuff quickly. Ordered turkey Reuben melt with upgraded onion ring side, special crab stuffed whitefish, blackened. They are out of whitefish. Ended up ordering two turkey Reubens, since nothing else appealed to me. The other side is salad for my sandwich. Added one scoop of the stuffing to check it out, since it looks decent. No gravy. $58.77 They must have run out of the crab stuffed whitefish after we were seated, since it wasn't taken off of the special board while we were in line. Pay at the front. They refuse Amex cards. Not good. Good thing I had an extra card. The side salad is a mix of iceberg and mixed green. The Italian dressing is quite orange. Side salad is not special, but it gives a small balance to the heavy food to come. The rye bread is really good, can really taste the bread, nice crunch to it. The turkey meat is oven roasted dinner turkey slices, not the deli stuff. It's a good turkey Rueben. The hand dipped onion rings are good, nice and crispy. Some excess batter that neither of us wanted on our rings and picked off the excess fried batter from the rings. The stuffing is pretty good, a tad too salty, but still good. The kind I like for sure. The Oreo cheesecake wasn't too bad. The 4 berry pie was good, the berry filling was really good on its own. Decent food and really good service.

The waitress was great, a little 'flighty' but she was friendly and was a great help with menu options. Most of their burgers were 1/4 or 1/2 pound and that is a bit much for me and I opted for a kids burger with cheese (burger was overcooked) and no bun, fries and a cookie & the other burger was just their jalapeño burger with bacon (burger was good) and fries all for $50.80. A bit pricey with one of the meals being a kids meal. The ambiance was different as there were dollar bills all over the walls and writing all over the walls. Made a once nice looking wood lodge look trashy. Had live entertainment which was great! Will definitely look at other dining options at the next visit during the regular season.

The server came by and asked if we wanted to order, to which we said we already had ordered upstairs but were going to move down to dine with our friend in a larger table. We were told we couldn't do that and had to go back upstairs! I asked to talk to a manager. When the manager came out, without even asking what was going on, He told me we had to go back upstairs and could not join our group! When I questioned his remark, he looked at me and said " you can leave" So we did! We went to Audies a few blocks away..... MUCH better food, DEFINITELY better prices and in talking to a few locals, found out how BAD customer service is at DIXIE, and that NONE of the locals will eat there! Management doesn't care about customers, just get them in and get them out! 100% tourist trap, HIGH prices, TERRIBLE staff including the "MANAGER" This is definitely a place that will fail and rightfully so. When a business doesn't care about customer service and only the bottomed line $$$$$ word travels fast! Terrible experience and will NEVER go back!
