Byron's Hot Dogs: A Neighborhood Gem for Comfort Food in Chicago

Bryon's hot dogs has been in that location over the 90's great food and always had been like a welcome home family feel to it.I've been going since a toddler, and the food has always been fantastic. It's a real comfort food kind of place. The atmosphere is so welcoming, it feels like family. I'm always happy to go back. It's a true neighborhood gem.

I was really surprised by how excellent the food and service were at this unassuming place with a long-standing good neighborhood reputation. The people behind the grill were so friendly, and joked around with my kids while we ordered. We all really enjoyed our food, with good portion sizes and fresh ingredients. We loved the throwback decor, and the place was kept really clean. Lots of locals were coming and going, and I feel disappointed that I haven't stopped in sooner. We'll be back again!

Food was good enough. Said I wanted onion rings 4 different times to the line workers because they were asking what my girlfriend & I wanted. For some reason, they were ignoring the onion ring part. Got to the register & had to restate my order which gives a bit of an unorganized vibe. Said twice to gentleman in the register that I would like onion rings. Got food and what do you know- no onion rings. Turkey burger my girlfriend ordered was awesome. Hot dog was okay. They didn't put sport peppers on it for some reason. Maybe the Byrons Chicago dog doesn't come with sport peppers? I'd say Portillo's has a better hot dog which isn't what I was expecting since Byrons is an old school mom & pop place. Fries were super hot & fresh. Place was a bit dirty. I'd come back but not in a hurry. Way better spots around the city. Workers were very nice. Just seemed a bit all over the place. The place wasn't busy either.

Super cool spot for some delicious food! I had a bacon cheeseburger and it had everything on it. Ketchup mustard relish lettuce onion sport peppers cucumber green peppers and celery salt. I also got a hot dog with all the fixing Chicago style. Great food, medium prices but TOTALLY worth it.

We’ve been coming here off and on for like 30 years of living in the neighborhood. Usually go to Budacki’s but it was closed. Got a hot dog and fries, and kid got a chicken breast sandwich combo. Price? $28. $28!!! That’s just crazy! Chicken sandwich was $15 and I guess hot dog and fries was almost $10. For sure, hot dog was good, and chix sandwich was good too, but damn. That’s expensive! People there are always nice, and food comes out quick. But damn. Pricey!

Old school Chicago style hot dog restaurant. I got the classic Chicago hot dog. I was not disappointed.

Mmmmm! Delicious burgers in this place that’s been around for - long time. The neighborhood has literally changed, but this place remains. The burgers are excellent. Fresh and hot. Fries are good. Service is great. They do have plenty of parking in their own lot.
