    Terrible !!!!! My husband ordered two grilled polishes with grilled onions and mustard. Since when does polishes have tomatoes and relish and a trimming ? The owner Mary, she was very unprofessional. To busy defending the fact this HOT DOG was indeed a polish. And not taking accountability for her actions. No we will not be back . Go back to customer service training .

    Has a unique quaint charm and the standard burger I got was one of the best I've had anywhere. Service was fairly quick and staff was chill.

    This place is like walking into a real life nickelodeon show, with the bright colors and classic diner look. If you like Chicago style dogs (or creative hot dog toppings) this place is for you! Side note, the burgers are the bomb dot com. Everything fresh and tasty. You won't be disappointed! There is limited seating on the interior (guessing 6-8 ish people) and self service dining, like fast food. You can ask for free refills on soda which i liked. This place is more so geared for to go orders but can accommodate someone or a few people possibly eating in. You can also park outside where the drive up service used to be and eat there.

    I went here because I wanted a real hotdog. I was shocked by how big it was and how loaded it was with all the condiments. The Chili Cheese Fries were amazing! I will suggest being ready to have a full stomach.

    Get your Chicago fix right here in STL without having to drive 5 hours north! Chicago dogs, Italian beef and plenty of other original dog and burger concoctions in a cool former drive-in space!

    Great little spot to grab a bite…sitting under the patio made it even better. The kiddos gave the seasoned fries a 👍👍! The hot dogs were perfect and my Chicago dog tasted great! Go check it out!

    Classic hot dog place with beef dogs from Chicago! Hubby had the dog with chili cheese and a corn dog. It's hard to find a place with fresh corndogs and this was well made and tasty! I had the double cheeseburger. It was two quarter pound smashed patties, cooked well done but juicy. The chili cheese fries were great, but I think the jumbo size was too much even for two people, so next time we will get the regular. Staff were friendly too!

    Such a mom and pop type of shop that I absolutely love. This place has been around for as long as I can remember. They offer great links of all kinds and also offers some well seasoned fries. The order of fries pictured is a regular. For this order with a lemonade my order was only $4.90!

    Visited 5/9/23 AR 5:30 p.m. The employees were nice, the place was clean, and the food was made perfectly with the small exception that the salt was a bit too much, but that is IT. No other "complaints". There is a certain way that you have to put a Chicago dog together, and they nail it EVERY time. The old owners and the new owners seem(ed) to really care about the quality and it shows. I've been going here for 40 years and I've never had a bad experience. Not even once. We drive about an hour each way just to get their Woofie dogs. I have bought all the right stuff to make my own in the past, including making my own poppy seed bun, but it's just not the same. If you've never tried them, do so. I'm always so worried that it may close and St. Louis will have lost an iconic place. There's just no other place, except actually in Chicago, that you can get the authentic masterpiece. Yes, on the celery salt for me, please.

    Signature double burger- so yum! Philly hotdog was very tasty. And the chili cheese fries were perfect.

    I had the philly hotdog. I was good just small for a big guy like me. As you see in the picture they uses a smaller fry which I am not a fan of but they definitely put enough cheese on there which makes it a bit salty but still good. I'm going to go back and try their burger I seen someone with it and it looked very juicy.

  • 5/5 Casey S. 7 months ago on Google
    First time eating here and it's a perfect example of why not to judge a book by its cover. The employees are very nice, friendly and helpful. The food was phenomenal. My partner doesn't ever usually like pickles anywhere we've been but she really enjoyed the ones from here.😁 I got a giant hot dog and my partner got a double cheeseburger and we split an order of fries for almost under 20$ will definitely be back.

    Delicious

  • 5/5 Rebecca B. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good food. Fresh and great quality. I've heard people say they are pricey and it's not a cheap meal but, it's worth every penny. Delicious, fresh, fantastic customer service with smiles and the best seasoned fries ever. 🤤 Been coming here since I was a kid and they have a loyal customer for life!!!

  • 5/5 Stan D. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent Chicago dog, definitely legit! New York dog is pretty decent too and the fries were hot and crispy.

  • 5/5 Erin B. 1 year ago on Google
    Finally tried Woofie's Hot Dogs today and it did NOT disappoint!! I got the Italian beef wet with Swiss cheese and giardiniera.. My husband had the Woofies dog along with a regular order of chili cheese fries.. 🔥🔥… food came out quick & awesome customer service.. best Italian beef sandwich I’ve had that compares to Portillos! We will def be back!

  • 5/5 Misael L. 11 months ago on Google
    Some of the best dogs I’ve had. Polish is fire. Fries are seasoned well and just as good as McDonald’s fries. Portions are great for the prices. I’d spend my last $6 here.

  • 4/5 R B. 1 year ago on Google
    Top-tier local establishment. Great Chicago-style dog joint with all the classic trimmings and a ton of more adventurous options too. A local institution, and I hope it lasts forever. Small dining area, and you'll probably have a wait if you don't call ahead, but it's always worth it and you'll always get great, hot food without fail. I only wish they were open a little later. Even an extra hour or two would make it viable as a dinner option.

    Finally tried Woofies hot dog and hamburger after all these years! Both were fantastic! Highly recommend it! True Vienna hot dogs from Chicago, so they're authentic! Hamburger pattie so big it hung out half an inch past the bun all the way around. And delicious!

  • 5/5 Rich G. 9 months ago on Google
    Hole in the wall hot dog place that has been around for a long long time. The dogs are great. Little known is that their burgers are the best around. Oh and the fries are awesome too. Updated review to 5 stars the atmosphere is not great but the food outways it.

  • 5/5 Nat A. 10 months ago on Google
    One of the few places in town where every order is fresh, delicious, and consistent. I have not been let down once since I started going here for lunch. In the drive thru they come out to your car to take your order and return with your drink while you wait for the food to be cooked. The fries are delicious with the seasoning salt and the large soda is massive. The staff are always the same so they must be getting treated and compensated fairly and it definitely shows. Page Avenue is a hellscape of nasty fast food but Woofies is a shining light of great service and wonderful food

  • 1/5 Nicole R. 9 months ago on Google
    I have lived in Overland all my life minus my military time. This place use to be good keyword used to be. The owner is combative and telling people who gave an honest review that essentially they aren't worthy to eat here jfc. This place has gone down hill since the new owner took over I get the old one either died or retired but they could have found a better nicer successor

  • 5/5 Talia R. 3 years ago on Google
    A fantastic hotdog place. Worth every penny. Only shame I have is that I'll be moving soon so I can't have it too much more. Also outdoor dining area so it's available for a good sit down and date even in these troubling times.

  • 5/5 Edward C. 3 years ago on Google
    The food was Delicious

  • 5/5 David B. 3 years ago on Google
    This is my favorite spot for a quick hotdog. It is a cool hot dog type stand place with all the toppings on your hot dogs. I love the fries too with all the seasonings. I used to go here all the time as a young guy and still go when I come back to town. I grew up on this food. Great hot dogs for sure.

  • 4/5 Andrew L. 3 years ago on Google
    Very good hotdogs. Fries were pretty average but the hotdogs were fantastic.

  • 5/5 Bev H. 3 years ago on Google
    The Hot Dog with Dignity! It really is one of the best polish sausage sandwiches out there! Get everything on it! Even the hot peppers! Well worth the money!

  • 5/5 Rich C. 3 years ago on Google
    I'm originally from Chicago and Woofies is solid for a Chicago style dog. I've been here probably a dozen times over the years. Had the footlong this time and it was great.

  • 2/5 Mary A. 3 years ago on Google
    I'm not a fan of hot dogs but the fries are really good and crispy. I go there just for fries.

  • 1/5 Marsha C. 3 years ago on Google
    Stopped by to purchase dogs, but quickly lost my appetite when I reached the window to puck up food and noticed no one inside were wearing masks. This is unacceptable for food service !!!!!!

    A St. Louis Classic

  • 1/5 Syrita C. 3 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 Bambi R. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing only place in the county that I can get a decent Chicago dog

  • 5/5 missladys c. 3 years ago on Google
    We have to support local businesses and this place I've been to since I was a little girl. The guy that was taking orders was very kind and helpful and even was walking out in the cold to take orders while people were waiting in their cars. Definitely will be back again

  • 4/5 Jackie S. 3 years ago on Google
    I had not had lunch there in years, the fries were great but the hot dog special I ordered was just so so. Lukewarm food. Staff makes you feel welcome

  • 5/5 Willie C. 3 years ago on Google
    Food Is Great!

  • 5/5 Jimmy C. 3 years ago on Google
    Some of the best food in town. Delicious and affordable. Come take this trip down memory lane and this nostalgic food spot.

  • 5/5 Doris B. 3 years ago on Google
    Don't live near Woofies so every time I go to that part of town, I have to stop in and get a dog. They are so good and messy. Not easy to eat in the car ( dinning room closed - panadermic) but well worth it. You can sit at their outdoor tables.
