The Tastiest Hot Dogs in Fort Worth

Nearly Famous Burgers & Hot Dogs

★★★★☆ 4.2 (59) • $$

"Always passed this place up on my way to Kroger from Woodside Drive. One day I had a routine doctor's visit and was really craving a burger afterwards. While my go to burger spot is at Parks Mall didn't feel like mobbing that way and searched in my area and found Nearly Famous. I'm a sucker for a catchy named establishment and the proximity to my house was unmatched. I walked in and it was busy, which is always a happy site to see, but there was only one worker who I think was the owner, but he was taking it all in stride with the multiple orders that he had. Inside is plentyful seating but a little tight. It's a simple establishment to eat your burger and go. After talking with some other polite, patient patrons, my loaded fries and double cheeseburger were ready in about 15 minutes. Establishment also has an amazing "pay it forward" policy that you should inquire about if you don't already know about it. If you like to be a bit philanthropic or looking for a good deed to do for the day, you can help someone in need by contributing. When I got home and started eating, everything was absolutely delicious. I added some avocado to my burger, and I am absolutely stoked that I have them within arms to reach of my house."

Time Rift Arcade

★★★★★ 4.8 (4)

"Time Rift Arcade is a sister location to Electric Starship off of 377. Its a great location, in a shopping center with two restaurants in the same strip, with a few other restaurants across Harwood & Central, and dessert options. Plus, Time Rift does have drinks and some snack options. They have a number of old school consoles to be able to play on, along with a lot of awesome arcade games & pinball machines. Staff was friendly, and when we had an issue with one of the games not working, they came over to get it fixed really quickly for us. They have a small party room that you can reserve if you're planning on having a birthday party or get together here. It very much that dash of nostalgia that folks can enjoy!"

Portillo's Mansfield

★★★★☆ 3.7 (28)

"The good: very clean location, lots of seating, easy to order, food came out fresh and hot.The bad: unless you're eating hotdogs or sausage, the menu is pretty awful. We had the fish sandwich and spicy chicken sandwich and felt like we wasted our money and calories. Probably the worst fish sandwich I have ever had and the chicken sandwich had the hubby feeling like we should've gone down Broad to another fast food chicken place. The fries were plain and unseasoned. No reason to come back, since we're not hot dog/pork people, but seems to be popular and well run, so hope they do well."

TrailBoss Burgers

★★★☆☆ 2.8 (168) • $$

"Our server Alex was great . Nice Texas ambiance. Children's meal is large and great deal at $5.99. Son had cheeseburger, fries and drink included. My chicken tenders were disappointing. Ok for quick bite."

Burger Box

★★★☆☆ 3.2 (42) • $

"Burger box customer service was really good! I had a double turkey burger (don't recommend) cause the patties are huge! I wish I had known beforehand. The ladies there are so nice and you can tell they really want the customers to be happy. Food was made fresh! I also got the footlong chili dog and a regular chili dog. They were pretty good but I must admit the chili wasn't my favorite, however I will go back and try other options as well. The place is more like a traditional diner set up nothing major to say about decor. It's really a place just to get some good "junk" food eat it and go."

Five Guys

★☆☆☆☆ 1.3 (4)

"We have been to most Five Guys in DFW. love it! BUT this new location is very skimpy on the size of the party, the amount of lettuce, the amount of fries. As soon as I found out this franchise was finally in the area I live, I was ecstatic, then the experience was underwhelming. This place is too expensive for yall to be so damn skimpy. I will give them one more chance soon and if I experience this again, I will keep going to locations farther away. Please change this. Stop being cheap!!!"

Brooklyn Dawgs

★★★★★ 4.8 (5)

"I'm a born and raised North Jersey boy. I know good pizza, bagels and dawgs. Brooklyn Dawgs (the proper way to pronounce dogs BTW) nails it. They serve Sabretts hot dogs and condiments, and in my humble opinion, they are the best. I understand they're going to start serving breakfast sandwiches and I can't wait to try them."

Nana's Cheesecake

★★★★★ 4.9 (9)

"Awesome food truck churning out delicious cheesecake. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful."

"This is a solid burger joint that has fresh meat with fresh, grilled vegetables.... Not to mention the sweet potato fries. Good service and a quiet place to enjoy your lunch."

Burger Box No 27

★★★★☆ 4.3 (32) • $

"Burger box #1 Burger and bun were hot and fresh. Lettuce, pickles and tomato were cold and fresh. Definitely a good burger. Fries were hot and fresh with just the right amount of salt. Unsweet iced tea was fresh and tasted good. I'll be back and will bring the family."

Myrtle's Burgers

★★★★☆ 4.4 (98) • $

"My husband, baby boy, and I went today for the first time and it was delicious! My husband has the double bacon cheeseburger. I got the jalapeño bacon ranch burger and shared a large basket of fries. We dug in before taking a picture. Compliments to the chefs.The two ladies in the front were nice when ordering and when calling our order. The outside picnic tables were clean. No trash in sight. It was very well kept. 10/10 recommend!"

Vice Burger

★★★★★ 4.7 (20)

"A quick stop in Fort Worth but vice made it worth it! The burger was delicious and the spiral fries and shake made it even better. Quick and kind service!"

Boom Daddys Burgers

★★★★☆ 4 (3)

"We went to lunch and it was delicious! Two in our party ordered the Burger Basket. Great burgers with lots of fries. Made fresh to order. The meal included burger, side, and drink for a good price. I ordered the catfish special. So yummy! The catfish wasn't fishy tasting at all. It included fries or tots and macaroni salad. The restaurant was decorated in a fun, funky way and had old school arcade games. The staff was friendly and efficient. We will be back!"

Portillo's Denton

★★★★☆ 3.7 (61) • $$

"This is my second visit this week. I was invited on Monday to try it out with some friends and today my parents and brother were wanting to try it out. I love the decor and the ambience is so warm, nostalgic, and homey. There's a little display with different good quality souvenirs you can purchase. The first visit I ordered a chicken sandwich and fries with cheese dip. Oh my goodness, the fries are crinkle cut and fresh, hot, and crispy (not too salty but salty enough). The cheese sauce pairs perfectly with the fries. The spicy chicken sandwich was full of good flavor and not too spicy and freshly made. As for my visit today I ordered the rodeo burger. The patties is charbroiled with onion rings, bacon, cheese, and bbq sauce. It's a hearty burger with lots of flavor. I was impressed. As for the staff they are all super friendly and helpful and keep that place super clean. I am excited for my next visit."

MOOYAH Burgers, Fries & Shakes

★★★★☆ 3.6 (5)

"Do not go here I unless you are fully ready to blow your calories. But also know that it's one of the few calorie busting meals that's actually worth every single juicy, meaty, flavorful bite!"

Portillo's Arlington

★★★★☆ 3.8 (158) • $$

"Love the turning doors to go in! It's a walk up order or use the digital screen to place order. I ordered the chili dog without onion and side of onion rings. Also ordered a cheese burger with a side drink. The burger was delicious way better than Whataburger! Onion rings were kinda over crispy and you can taste the oil. Next time I'll stick to the fries. Chili dog was good, kinda small but overall good food. They do serve beer! Which makes it a place to hangout for a bit. Nice setting area plus they have a patio area"

Big Dawgs Hot Dog Co

★★★★★ 4.9 (8)

"Great! Did I say great? First time. Burgers and dogs were amazing. Customer service was top notch too."

Wily Wieners

★★★★★ 5 (4)

"Nothing but good things to say! I got the Hawaiian dog and my boyfriend got the Texan. From the bun, to the dog, to the toppings, everything was phenomenal. The bun will make or break a hot dog and they do it right here. Fries were fresh and crispy and the house made curry ketchup was amazing to dip them in. I've been trying to find a hotdog spot since i moved to Fort Worth and I will definitely be checking their website schedule to come back for more!"

Cowtown Dogs

★★★★★ 4.8 (12)

"I love the Selina dog! It's a hotdog made out of the best possible ingredients!! If you have a chance to eat one, buy two!"

Loaf'n Dog

★★★★☆ 4.2 (50) • $

"Local is almost always good. This one was really good. I went more out of curiosity, wondering if it was just another coney place. I assure it wasn't. The place is neat, country eclectic with a lot of hot dog and city related items, that was the deco. Small sitting area, not meant for huge groups. The dogs weren't part of a q quick serve recipe. They obviously had to prep parts of the fare. I had the Aimee dog and the Texas dog. Both were amazing. Aimee dog was bratwurst, looked steamed or boiled. Was gray and moist, not dry and charred from a grill or a pan. Skin still snapped when bite. Sauerkraut, bacon, grilled onions, and spicy mustard on top. Great taste!! Texas dog was a spicy dog, shredded cheese, grilled onions and jalapeños, topped with bbq sauce. This was a really good combo. My first thought was the bbq sauce may throw it off, but it's a light amount and doesn't distract, adds to the overall flavoring. Really good. Haven't had anything else yet, they all look good. I like a place with variety and goes off the list of normal fare. Definitely recommended."

Chill Zone - Coming Soon

★★★★★ 5 (4)

"Wanted to try this as the owner does a lot of charity work in this area. Small place, cool inside and has busy drive thru. Server came out within one minute. Smiling and pleasant. She made us happy and relaxed while she took our drink order. Looked at the menu and around the dining area where the daily specials are posted. I chose the at Louis ribs, a full rack for $25. Also order the max and cheese they are famous for. My Wife ordered the bacon wrapped shrimp and the Texas Twinkies. Ribs were cooked well, a little smoky since I use a pellet smoker at home but the flavors was solid and through the meat, not just on the surface. The Mac & cheese was excellent. Creamy, cheese, and lots of flavor. I really liked the bacon wrapped shrimp and Texas Twinkies. Jalapeño student with brisket, cheese and deep fried wow, what a flavor bomb. Overall, an excellent lunch hut I have to come back for one of their mouth watering cheeseburgers and brisket."

Portillo's Fort Worth

★★★☆☆ 3.3 (142)

"Several years ago, I watched my favorite comedian talk about this chocolate cake shake at Portillo's while he was in town doing a show in Chicago. The story was funny of course and left me wanting to try this shake the next time I visit Chicago. Btw, can anyone guess the comedian? Anyway, although I was excited when the first TX location opened up in Frisco, I resisted. Whenever I would pass by on my way to Dallas, I would peep over and see the crazy long line. So when one opened up near my house, there was no more resisting. They've been open for a few months now, but I waited for the crowd to die down and then a short phase of a vegan diet. Anyway, I pulled up to the drive thru and surprisingly there was no line to order. I did some research before and decided to try the beef sandwich that I've heard good things about from friends. It did not disappoint. I got it the standard way with sweet peppers. The Maxwell Street Polish sausage looked delicious. It certainly tasted delicious with a snappy sausage and topped with tangy mustard and tons of sweet grilled onions. I finally tried a Chicago style hot dog! It was just ok, not for me lol. Too much going on. Now, for the shake. It was everything I hoped for and more. This is the only way I want a chocolate shake from now on...with bits of chocolate cake in it! A small size was still plenty and my mind went to a place where calories did not exist. The drive thru staff was really nice and efficient. There was a little line at the window but it moved fairly quickly. I had such a great experience that I came to dine in during lunch. Plenty of tables inside and there's even a patio outside. The staff was cranking out orders during lunch in a timely manner. We didn't have to wait too long. Y'all have to come try it out. Don't forget the chocolate cake shake!"

Crave Hot Dogs & BBQ

★★★★☆ 4.1 (57)

"Excellent service, and tasty hot dogs and tots. The hot dogs had that nice pop when you bite into it and reminded us of Nathan's brand but fatter. We left with full bellies despite having left some fries and tots on our plates. I look forward to returning to give the ax throwing and the serve yourself drink tap a try."

Portillo's Grapevine

★★★★☆ 3.5 (30)

"First visit to the actual restaurant, went to the food truck before they open their first location here in DFW. Was not impressed from the food truck, however, was quite happy with the experience here at the Grapevine restaurant!We went at 12:45 on a cold Monday... surprisingly, they were very busy! The line moved quickly and our order came quickly, too!We were both pleased with our "dogs" and the onion rings were also good!Large. Well lit inside. They have just one soda fountain, which kind of gets crowded when people are trying to get a soft drink.Felt like it was a good value, well run! Definitely be coming back!"

Simply Burgers

"Great burger spot. Fresh patty and buttered bread. Price is reasonable. You order your food at the counter but they'll pick up your place when your done. Not a bad spot to come for lunch"
