BYRON'S HOT DOG'S
1017 Irving Park Rd.
Chicago, IL
4 out of 5 stars
One of a handful of must eat hot dogs anywhere in the country. Byron's is nationally and locally known and respected. this place will not let you down. Really great Chicago style, neighborhood, throw down dog joint. The kind of place you swing by a couple times a week when you pass. The kind of place with quality and taste you know and respect.
We went with the DOGZILLA. This thing is a beast. Fat, juicy dog. All the traditional Chicago condiments.
Pros: The taste. Mega flavor. Everything pops. Everything feels right.
Cons: The dog is big but light. Sorta lacks substance if that makes sense, the opposite of hearty. Also, the bun gave out on us pretty quick. Got very messy.
The price was good. The shoestring fries, not so much. But regardless of any con, the taste more than makes up for it. Get you some.
