LOVE the Weinery, been coming for years and my family has been going even longer than me. Love love love. The tofu dog is perfection. So are the picnic fries.

Paid 9 dollars for a double order of Chili Cheese Fries to receive regular fries with no chili or cheese. Average sizes dogs with minimal toppings for the Manhatten style. I might go in person so I can get the stuff I ordered correctly, but not worth the doordash markup.

Disappointing. I've been eating here occasionally for 30 years. The veggies on the Maxwell Street were basically raw. And the Chicago Dog was missing sport peppers, celery salt, and mustard. Not sure what's going, I remember the old days if I'd ask for ketchup on my Chicago Dog the owner would give me a nasty look. Now they don't even know how to make one.

Best soggy food in town. In case you were ever wondering "How is it possible to screw up a plain hot dog?" you should order here. No container for the fries so the grease was soaking through the bottom of the bag. Italian beef was absolutely SOAKED, so the fries & dog were soggy beyond edibility. Coleslaw was more soup than slaw. We considered ourselves lucky that the can of soda was cold.
