“Stopped in for a late lunch of Chicago style hotdogs and fries. Everything was made fresh to order and the folks running the place were just as sweet as could be!”

“Wonderful local spot for hotdogs and burgers. The food and service were both outstanding. This place is definitely worth the trek from downtown.”

“This place was recommended to us before we made our first trip out to Chicago and it did not disappoint! Food was delicious and there are hilarious drawings hung up along the walls that make the atmosphere super enjoyable. Will definitely be back for our next trip!”

“Look down otherwise you might miss it, this is a classic hotdog spot. The chicago dog is great, with fresh ingredients and served with crispy tater tots. With good music playing and funny customer drawn hotdogs covering the walls, it’s definitely worth the stop. Would’ve prefer to eat-in but did not have the time.”

“Excellent Chicago Style Dog and a very good pretzel burger as well. Grandma K 10/10”

“THIS WAS SO GOOD I FINISHED MY HOTDOG BEFORE I EVEN HAD A CHANCE TO TAKE A PHOTO OF IT INCREDIBLE!! SOME OF THE BEST FRIES EVER, THE CHICAGO DOG WAS I THINK ONE OF THE BEST I'VE HAD (I CAN'T THINK OF A BETTER ONE OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD), AND THE WOMAN WHO WORKED THE REGISTER WAS SO NICE AND LOVELY AND GOOD VIBES 10/10”

“1/6/26 - Still stand by this review after trying other places The best Chicago dogs because it doesn’t fall apart from the bun. The fries were excellent as well.”

“We ordered hot dogs from the bar at Murphy's. The dogs were delicious and the delivery was excellent!”

“Local gem hotdog/burger spot! Definitely worth the trek from downtown if your looking for something a little more unique and old school rather than the usual tourist traps but the real gem is the experience. This basement location serves a superb hot dog with amazing snap and generous toppings with fresh cut fries that were just so perfect on the outside with a melt your heart inside. I ordered the Jimmy chili cheese dog chili is homemade amazing flavors. They also have good vegetarian options. The framed drawings on the walls of various hot dogs added attraction. The owner is a gem she's just always pleasant and always has something nice to say to everyone. Don't pass this place up. 100% recommend!”
