Worst

Although the food at Hot Dog Heaven is good, I don't believe that paying $4 for a hot dog is worth it. Cons: Tiny dining area, Price too expensive

Everyone has covered the basics, except for this: HDH closes for vacation once a year (can't remember if it's always the same month, or if it varies), so CALL FIRST if you are traveling a distance. more

By the way, if you want a really good Chicago Style Italian Beef sandwich go to Taste of Chicago in Margate on SR 7, just north of Coconut Creek Parkway. I've eaten at every Chicago style restaurant and this is the best, so far. There beef is wonderful, lean and juicy and you can have it wet, dunked...however you want it. Their hot dogs are great too. Everything is nice and fresh. If you want a good Gyro Sandwich, you can get that too. They have Maxwell style Polish sausage sandwiches and several other items on the menu. Its very small, you are definitely not going there for the ambience but the food is worth it. The only criticism is that the owner is not a people person. I've been there 10-12 times and I think I only saw the owner smile twice. I think he could get even more business if he smiled and spoke to the customers more. It surprises me, usually people from Chicago are very friendly and talkative. I am from Chicago :) more

When I worked at Peaches (remember them?) ions ago, I ate at Hot Dog Heaven at least once a week, either the hot dog or Italian Beef sandwich. It was always packed. The people that worked there were great, lots of fun, the people seemed like they loved working there. The food was always good. The beef always great, lean and juicy. I went there a few weeks ago, for the first time in a really long time. I ordered the beef sandwich. When I saw them take the meat out of the fridge and zap it in the microwave, I knew I was in trouble. It was horrible. It didn't taste remotely like a Chicago Italian Beef sandwich. You are supposed to have au jus to dip the sandwich in (I like mine dunked). The meat was tough, dry and fatty. And the bread was dry. The staff didn't seem like they knew what they were doing, either. I gather the old owners sold the business to someone that has never eaten Chicago style food. Otherwise they could never serve that food. Yuck. more

You're missing out if you haven't gone yet, seriously! 8/9/2007

I'm not a Chicago native but I can appreciate their style food! This place is small so it doesn't take long at all for the line to form outside. I'm sure it would be greatly appreciated if they picked a bigger spot because it's a pain to eat in. I don't think their menu is huge but I can't recall complaining! Their Chicago dogs and the Maxwell polish are THE best and I travel over 10 miles just to have them. I wasn't impressed by their chicken sandwich but come on! Go for the dogs! Simple but effective! This is an obvious mom and pop shop, and as usual you don't get the 'commercial' service or portions. The service is personable and their fast! Pros: Food is simply damn good! Cons: You can't eat in, I have a big personal space, & people in line are right there behind you. more
