The space is cosy and the ambient music is perfect. The hot dogs have plenty of choosing on tastes and flavours, and so have the fries/chips. They have free Wi-Fi which enabled me to make this review ;)

If I'm craving hotdogs, Dirt dog is my first choice when I'm at work here in downtown LA. Tip: upgrade to lobster bread. A soft kinda sweet bread. My favorite is the green. Red is kinda hot for me.

Tried a few different dogs and 2 types of fries during our visit. The Good: Beer on tap, friendly patrons, clean, fast service, delicious fries, loved the Elote dog, loved real coca cola in the glass bootle and music was the perfect compliment. The Bad: Line was out the door, location is small, parking sucks, getting a table can be problematic. Would I go back? Absolutely. The Elote dog was hands down our favorite along with the dirty fries. The churro was steaming hot and I left glad I'd stood in line.

I search Trip Adviser to find this restaurant. My wife and I where in Las Vegas and wanted to try restaurants that we don't have back home. So many choices and will be back to try more options. We order a couple of dogs to share and their Mexican corn (loved it). This is definitely worth trying.

🌠#dirtychilidog #flithyfries #housedog #greendog DOG——They are amazing!!! Especially the dirty chili dog. 👉KatesfunZone

The food is amazing! The only reason I don’t give it 5 stars is because the wait time is always over 35 mins just to put your order in. There is typically only one person taking the orders. Also when they are super busy they do not take phone orders :( However that just shows how delicious this food is! The hotdogs are amazing I always get it on the lobster roll and I have to have the Elote fries and the Dirty Esquite! If I’m feeling really good the churro with horchata whipped cream is amazing! I didn’t get a picture because it was gone that fast Great atmosphere you really feel the LA culture it makes me feel at home being from LA! Highly recommend but don’t think it’s a quick place to pick up food but TOTALLY worth the wait

Busy, but they know how to keep it organized! Liked the dog, didn't love the chili, but the dirty corn was AMAZING!!! I will go back and try more of the menu! It all looked good!

I have never heard of this place until my friend sent me a link to read their reviews and as soon as I saw the corn on a cob, I immediately said "LET'S GO!" Upon arrival, the wait wasn't long, but as soon as we sat down, the line was out the door. I was a little shocked, but man, after getting all the food we had ordered, I would definitely wait any line there! The food was DELICIOUS! I recommend going with a group of friends so that each one orders something different to get a taste of everything because my oh my, everything is to drool for! We loved it! You MUST try the corn on a cob!!

Wonderfully innovative hot dogs. A group of us went for lunch. We tried the House Dog (special house sauce, green chili spread)), the Mutt Dog (a combo of green and red chili), the Elote Dog (corn, lime, chili, cilantro, bacon bits), and the Pastrami Dog (pastrami, pickles, mustard, bacon bits, sweet pepper aioli). All were delicious, as were the fries. With so many people talking and blogging about designer hamburgers, it's great to see a restaurant dedicated to the dog.

If there's a line you know a place is really good. They make you wait to sit at a table till you order, so everyone has a chance to sit down to eat. The staff was really great, restraunt minus them cleaning the tagging off the restroom/restraunt walls. The hot dogs are a meaty dog, not mushy cheap type processed one. Only thing I didn't like is my elote fries soaked through the paper & it made some holes in it. Since you get a wire tray not a plastic one. Your food will get in contact with the table, unsanitary for sure.

Great vibes in this small place and even greater food. Choose the melt in your mouth lobster roll as your dog bun and you can’t go wrong. Don’t leave without having some carne asada fries! Definitely will always be my go to place when visiting LA.

Took 45 + mins. to get 3 hot dogs and 2 fries...cost around $35.00. The wait was way too long, it's just hot dogs. The hot dog was just ok, the salt and pepper fries were good. (Also had dirt fries, wanted filthy fries but orderer screwed up...they were just ok too.) I would not go back to Dirt Dog.

Stopped here for lunch one day and had a great experience. Located in a small strip mall and if you blinked you would miss it. Parking is a challenge but not that big of a deal. Interior is nice and clean. Staff is super friendly and very helpful. Each dog is bacon wrapped and then you can build from there. My buddy and I each had the dirty Chili dog and we split an order of fries. The dogs were fantastic on a toasted Portuguese bun, like a sweet Hawaiian bread roll, and the fries were perfect. Can't wait to go back and try some of the other choices. Very well worth the stop.

Ok, we love hot dogs but this place took it to another level for us! Our hot dos were not only delicious but they have that snap of a great dog. You know it's a good dog when you feel the snap. Their fries were good too. Oh let me not forget about the esquite= Mexican Street corn in a cup...that is a must eat!!!! We didn't have room for dessert but will be going back for that. Parking is a bit tight but once you get a spot you are in!

Visited Dirt Dog earlier in the day, and there was no wait. Ordered: Mutt Dog - Pretty tasty, since you get to taste two hot dogs: the Red Dog and Green Dog. Had a tiny bit of heat and the hot dog itself was okay. Dirty Fries - Decent, average french fries. The ranch dipping sauce was a great complement. Dirty Corn - I visited Dirt Dog primarily for their elote, which I had heard a lot about. It was just okay, and not overwhelmed with the toppings. The taste was just average, but the corn itself was actually charred. In all, Dirt Dog was just okay. It was pretty inexpensive, and the taste slightly exceeded the cost.

Hadn't had a dog in a while.... from out of town and wanted one. I personally think their bun to dog ratio is bad. The staff was excellent, interior was nice... Parking not so much....

That was good! Took a walk in the neighborhood and stopped by for a hot dog. Best!!! Dirty dog on a lobster roll bun and Dirty Chips. The chips come with a secret sauce. Friendly service, clean, fun!!! I will be back! (I'm afraid I'm addicted to the chips!)

Dirt Dog is relatively new, but apparently very popular. They give you several varieties at the age old Chili Dog. The choices were interesting, and my dog and fries both good; but I must admit, I'm pretty old fashion when it comes to my hot dogs. Great Service and I would recommend that you give it a try.

This place was great. Had the Elote dog with the lobster roll and Mutt dog with pretzel bun with the side of an Elote. I would recommend the lobster roll for your bread option. Can’t wait to go back. The parking is horrible! Good luck trying to find one and I read there is parking behind but there are signs all over for towing. I will provide a picture of the parking madness.

We were at the Long Beach location, though there is not a page for them. Our second time there. The food was awesome, the service was fast. Great deal for the price.

DH and I stepped in this spot on a Wednesday afternoon for lunch and the line was AT the door (I hear it is usually out the door). We loved it. We enjoyed the Red Dog, the House Dog, an order of garlic fries, and Dirty corn. The wait was not long, maybe about 20 minutes from door to eating. The space is not large, but I think the rule about not sitting at a table unless you have placed an order allows seating for everyone ready to eat. The decor is hip as well as the music (hip-hop). The bathroom...it's key entry and needs cleaning and major work. As far as the food, EXCELLENT. Well worth the Lyft. Would we return? YES!

My friends treated me on this and I love here's hot dog flvor and corn. It was not too salted,toast also grill perfect.

My son spotted this place on YouTube and had it on his list for a visit on our first trip to LA. Staff were incredibly friendly and helped us choose from the menu. What can I say, the best bit dogs we've ever had. Followed by some deep fried oreos what could be better. We even put our little flag on the wall, all the way from the UK. If you like hot dogs give it a go!

Dirt Dog doesn't look anything special from the outside but once you step inside it's a hip little place. I went for the mutt dog which is half red, half green and the buns, the sausage and the fillings/sauces are all really tasty. We were a group of 4 and all of us loved it. The churros and the horchata ice cream are also quite good. We were also happy with the service, the girl at the counter was helpful and kind. If I ever get back to LA I'll be sure to visit Dirt Dog again!

Nice atmosphere! Staff was very friendly. Even better the food was hot and delicious. I've been craving it ever since I've left!

Best dog I've had.Had the patty melt dog,wife had the dirty chili dog,both loved them.The fries were great also.Fresh hot churros for desert,couldn't ask for a better experience when wanting a dog.Parking is a little challenging,but it is worth it.

A year ago our family was in town and found this place on yelp. We tried it and it was SO GOOD so when we were in town again this year we thought we’d see if it was as good as remembered and it was!!! The only reason not five stars is the parking IT IS HORRIBLE. Our recent visit took an hour to find a place to park and wait in line just to order, so when you go plan for the extra time it will most likely take!

So I eat street dogs/border burgers all the time. My sister cringes when I eat them. She yells about how there is no place for the vendor to wash their hands. Well me, I don't care that they are made on a makeshift grill top. They are so good. I figure the heat will kill off the germs. ha ha So I eagerly come here with my sissy and niece expecting a knockoff of a street dog, and somehow I am knocked off my feet with yumminess! I never thought having an actual real kitchen could enhance the goodness of the street/border dog. We decided to try 3 hot dogs, and split them so we could have a taste of each. This was the best idea. We were able to check out more than one hot dog. We paired the dogs with some yummy fries and washed it all down with a fried twinkie! I'm probably one of the last people to have a fried twinkie, but I am very happy I finally had one. Of course I want another one! So yes, I can now have street dog flavor with restaurant clean!

I've been wanting eat here for awhile now and I finally stopped by to try it out. I ordered the Elote Dog which which is wrapped In Center Cut Bacon, Corn, Lime Mayo, Cotija, Chili Powder, Cilantro, Bacon Bits. The flavors worked well with each other and I give this one two thumbs up. The only negative thing is the price of these hot dogs which I feel are bit pricey.
I wish there was one on the East Coast.
I live in Providence and I wish we had something this good!! I have been wanting to try this place for a long time and wow was it worth it. So much flavor. I have the dirty chili dog and my girlfriend had the house dog #1. Both super super good and I already want to go back. I highly highly recommend it! The corn was great too!
