The Dawg Shack

The Dawg Shack offers various types of hot dogs and sausages, sandwiches, and side items.We came here for an earlier lunch, and we ordered:+the Norfolk Hot Dog - topped with mustard, relish, onions, and chili+a Beef Hot Dog - topped with chili, cheese and onionsBoth dogs were fine; just wished the buns were steamed or more fresh; ours was dried out.Staff were efficient, and there's some seating inside.Plenty of parking available in the strip plaza lot.+dried buns+plenty of parking

The experience is the same every time. Great service, yummy dogs and the meal will not cost you an arm and a leg.

College kids always have the best places to eat and the Dawg Shack by ODU is on that list. The hot dogs were tasty and had that snap that I remembered from living in Germany. The grill cheese was cooked just right and who could resist tater tots. My only let down was the onion rings/fries half and half, I only received three rings. The service was simple yet very effective and the staff always available to serve. The restaurant has a Happy Days vibe, but with up to date music playing. Even on a holiday they were busy so it definitely has its regulars. Great simple comfort food.

Shouldnt cost $20 for lunch. We know what blank dogs costs. Youre all buying your chili same place. I guess it's just easy to throw a $20. Not for me

Great old school lunch counter with cooked to order dogs, burgers and sandwiches. A true neighborhood joint. Fast and friendly service. Same price as fast food but so much better. Clean facility, no alcohol. Definately recommended for a great classic American lunch.

I headed here craving hot dogs and while that's not what I had for lunch today, I really enjoyed it. This is a quick order grill with a short menu. There's no salad here. They don't have a diet plate. I chose the cheeseburger with a side of onion rings. Far from healthy but it was cooked to order by friendly people and it arrived fresh and hot. The burger patty went on the grill and the onion rings went into the fryer when I ordered it. A few minutes later... deliciousness.This is a "joint." It's old school and it's not fancy. If they take credit cards, I don't know. I paid cash as it had a cash vibe. Delicious.[Review 18117 overall - 1387 in Virginia - 1639 of 2022.]

Working around the house all day, tan an errand for some hardware things, realized I hadn't eaten all day so stopped in for a snack. Notice the health rating 100 out of 100...so, ya know what to do, smash 1 of those buttons at the bottom;) lol TYIA...ok, fact - the building is old, but the owner and staff do a great job of keeping this place clean. Clean bathrooms, always appreciated. Clean floors and tables. My last stop in was near closing time, and the mop water was a strong chemical smell and not an ideal aroma when eating but I'd prefer cleanliness...so we continue.The service each time I've been here as been great. Very friendly, smiles, open to any questions about the menu or daily special. All I've tried has been their hotdogs, and good dawgs! They hit the spot. I'm a fan.

Yummy in my tummy.DAWGS are what they are known for, and they do them right!Everyone likes them different from another person and they accommodate that! Me Mustard Onion and sauerkraut! The make each one to order!They have much more on the menu..but after all the years I have never expanded beyond my comfort zone.Everyone's alway friendly. The reason for 4 starts instead of five.While there for a while people came and went and there was no effort to sanitize between customers

I quietly stumbled upon this place.. and I was completely sold from the moment I walked in.. very laidback atmosphere and the food was amazing I had the beef dog and fries, cooked perfectly.. highly recommended

Awesome place to eat with home town feel .Cindy the owner welcomes everyone with a smile
