What People Are Saying About Wolfy's
Featured Review

The Scene – The dining area is smaller than you'd think, decorated by some amusing pieces of "art", including Mona Lisa eating a hot dog or a hot-dog-eating wolf in stained glass. But head up to the counter and put in your order--during the lunch rush, it can get confusing as the cooks and cashier are moving so quickly, it's seems chaotic. But listen for your number and you're in business. – – The Food – The regular dog is the simple Chicago classic-- a bun-length steamed dog topped with a pickle, raw onion, neon-green relish, mustard, tomato slices and sport peppers.…
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- Giant cookies, imported from Libertyville, make a decent dessert on the go--try with either the chocolate chip or M&Ms.

Love the soft serve!
by snakesonaplane at Citysearch
The hotdogs, burgers and fries are great, but I always stop in there to have a cup or cone of the soft serve. You've gotta try the soft serve. Love it!
- Pros: The soft serve!
- Cons: -
THE WORST HOT DOGS, AND AT ONE TIME WERE THE BEST
by wolfyssucks at Citysearch
SINCE THE NEW OWNERS TOOK OVER THE FOOD IS TERRIBLE, THE HOT DOGS WERE COLD, AS WAS THE BREAD, THE ONCE AND MIGHTY FRIED MINI- BURGERS WERE TERRIBLE. VERY CHEAP AND STUPIDO WNERS, THEY WASTED A GOOD ICON.
- Pros: TO MUCH FOR A BAD PRODUCT
- Cons: TO MUCH FOR A BAD HOT DOG
the fries are the best feature here
by tarquin232 at Citysearch
the hot dogs and hamburgers are ok but the fries are excellent , very crisp , highly salted (i like fries that way) and they have always been made fresh to order when i have been there service was decent and the orders i have made have been accurate every time
- Pros: the fries , the fries, the fries
- Cons: none
The Best
by cyclone1pa at Citysearch
I have been going to wolfy's since I was 4 years old, and for the last 35 years, I have found no other hot dog that taste as good as theirs. There hot dogs are real beef. When ever me and dad are close to Wolfy's since we live out in McHenry County we always swing by and and have a hotdog...
- Pros: Good Food, alot to look at
Rude
by bateli at Citysearch
Used to have to wait in line at Wolfy's because it was so crowded. That doesn't happen anymore and if thay don't learn how to say thank you there will never be long lines at WOlfy'd again. It's really a shame but the service is so poor that people in the neighborhood are getting into their cars and driving elsewhere.
- Cons: , Expensive
