What People Are Saying About Underdogg Restaurant

Featured Review

In Short – The hot dogs at this Six Corners stand have an extraordinary burst of flavor--especially when customers are intoxicated. The underground venue and flacid, hand-cut fries draw an energetic crowd that is fun and eager to eat whatever nourishment the staff throws in the fryer or grill. By day, the clientele is much quieter, consuming their neon-green relish-topped dogs and fries dressed with a substance that looks like cheese.

Editor's Tips

What to Eat:
Veggie-dogs are available for non-carnivorous types.

  1. Needless to say you can probably find enough change between the cushions of your couch to feast upon a perfectly cooked burger and some tasty freshcut fries.

It's not that hard...

I'm an expert on Chicago hot dogs. The best dogs are perfect in their simplicity and it doesn't take a lot of effort to make a really good one. The guys at Underdogg simply have no clue.

I ordered 2 hot dogs last night with everything on them. The menu says that every hot dog comes with french fries. When I got home, I was very disappointed. They only put tomatoes, onion and a pickle on the hot dogs. NO MUSTARD! NO SPORT PEPPERS! Plus there was only one order of fries. These guys don't know what makes a good chicago hot dog and the service was terrible. I miss Wicker Dog...

  • Pros: Convenient location.
  • Cons: Poor Service. Did not deliver what they promised.
