Jerry's Wood Fired Dogs

Beat Hot Dogs in the whole wide world!Yay! yay yay yes!Will.always come back!Wouldn't want to miss this place!Hope.it never goes away!

I'm from Chicago. We KNOW Hotdogs.I'm not going to bitch about the high prices: De Rigueur for Airport food.And no, I didn't expect a dragged-through-the-garden Chicago style Dog. I realize Cali dogs are a different breed.What I AM going to bitch about is sitting there hungry waiting for the joint to open, (I had a relatively early flight) Walking almost to the other end of the terminal from where my gate was, then getting a Bratwurst that was decidedly run-of-the-mill.Not so shitty as to deserve one star, but it was a slim victory to get 2 out of me.Message to Jerry: You wouldn't last a week in the Windy City serving stuff like this...

I liked it. But then again, I was hankering for a hotdog.I ordered a bratwurst ($6?) with all the fixings - grilled peppers, grilled onions, tomatoes, and Lord knows what else because all the additional toppings were freeeeee so I went to town. Topped everything off with mayo and spicy mustard. I have to admit, it was a little difficult to eat because of all of the fixings, but the bratwurst itself was good. The sausage had a nice snap when you bit into it.I also ordered a side of chili cheese fries. The fries themselves were nicely seasoned and I also liked their chili + cheese + diced onions. This alone could stand as a meal. Everything came out to under $14 for my lunch. Service was a little slow, so make sure you have ample time before deciding on ordering anything here.

They serve dogs and burgers. I was in a rush and got the Texas Tommy dog with bacon and onions based on the waiter's recommendation. It was aiiight.

#118Airport food at its quickest. I am not a huge fan of many meat items, but it was early, we needed "fuel" for the trip and Jerry's was on the map, so to speak.We grabbed some hot dogs, or should I say 'they' grabbed some hot dogs and I grabbed a side to snack on.The service was friendly and quick, and that is really important when you are in an airport. For this, I give them four stars. Thank you Jerry's for helping us re-fuel and get to our flight on time.Stephani Smiles for Jerry's Wood Fired Dogs ;)

Ok they are open again as of January 2016 but now as an "express" location. In other words they are no longer the full version of Jerrys.All the different mustards, salts etc....are all now just mustard and ketchup. It's fine for an airport quick meal.For those of you who whine about it not being authentic Chicago dog...get of yourself. Do you have any idea how many bad hot dog places there are in Chicago? Many are crap so quit crying.

Had a Jerry's original dog and it was quite good. The dog itself was good and the fire-roasting left a nice flavor. Pricey, but we're in an airport after all.

So after my not so great experience at another food vendor in the airport... I decided to give this place a try. I'm glad I did, because the hotdog and bacon were cooked on a open flame. It was burnt just right. The fries where nice and crispy, with great seasoning. Topped with grilled onions peppers, just the right hit of mustard and mayo... gave the dog just the perfect American flavor!! Wash it all down with your favorite drink... and you've got something to Yelp about. Now I gave 4 stars, because there was only 1 person taking orders, cooking, and delivering food. Now she handled business and had it down.The next time you are in John Wayne airport, then stop by.

So that was gross. I ordered an original burger and bottle of water while I waited for my flight at the Orange County Airport. I watched the server take a precooked burger out of the fridge and popped it into the microwave to warm it up. The hamburger bun was old, hard, and cracked when I touched it (see pic). I took 2 bites and threw it away. The bottle of water cost over $4. It was not worth the money, time, or calories.

Complete airport food fail. Customer service was poor. There were 3 guys behind the counter, looking bored. I asked for two toppings on my simple dog and they still got it wrong. So they did a do-over.As for the dog, it all looked good on the outside, but it disintegrated when I first attempted to pick it up. Last time I checked, you're supposed to be able to pick up a hot dog. I ended up just eating the meat part with a knife and fork, leaving the soggy bun on the plate. Still a little hungry n the plane, I had to depend more on airplane peanuts than I had planned.Dear Jerry's: It's great that you have so many toppings, and that you apply them liberally. But you need to back it up with a sturdier bun or the whole concept falls apart. Literally.
