Dirty Frank's Hot Dog Palace

Vegan dogs! we had a great time- its busy, cluttered, helpful, delicious, great for families and hey, vegan dog options, bun included! we were just delighted. had two- totally full to the rim with food. if we ever pass through this town again, its one of the best things going in Columbus.

I get to come down to Ohio once a year or so for work and I always make time to stop here. I absolutely adore the veggie polish dogs split and cooked in a Chicago dog style. This is year # 3 that I came down and my wife always gets a shirt. If you're not stopping by you're missing out on a quality affordable meal with an absolutely electric atmosphere. The music is always great and
I love the restaurant artwork.

The food was really good. The wait time was not long at all. The places is small so it looked packed so I just ordered out. I ordered a drink that was supposed to come with a special cup and it didn’t. I don’t know if it made a difference because I ordered out and didn’t die in but their drinks was really good and customer service Amazing amazing

Great experience! We were in Columbus for a volleyball tournament and decided to stop in and give it a try. Was not disappointed. My husband and I got 4 different hot dogs and shared them and they were all delicious! The Cleveland Rocks was by far our favorite!

You know what? Just a hot dog place with a super lived-in vibe. First time here, but was the restaurant equivalent of putting on a comfy pair of shoes. Food was great, service was fine, but the biggest points were earned for the atmosphere.

Happened upon this place after a long day of travel. It's a very niche, tidy spot for a great hot dog.

Admittedly, I don't eat hot dogs very often, but when I do, I want them to be special, and Dirty Frank's offers just that.

I liked all the options for sides as well.

Service was very attentive and helpful.

Would definitely go back.

Just… wow. Absolutely fantastic food. Each hot dog was served with a delicious bun, which definitely elevates it. Cooked well, the bacon wraps were crispy, the brisket in the doginator was delicious even on its own. Combine that with a sense of humor, friendly staff, and an amazing vibe and you have a top notch dinner. Definitely worth stopping in.

I really enjoyed trying Dirty Frank’s restaurant after having them at Crew games. The restaurant has a great, little atmosphere and the food is terrific! They put a good amount of toppings on their dogs, but not so much that it’s falling everywhere and you can’t actually enjoy the dog. The workers were friendly and, although I’m not into that kind of stuff, they had a lot of vegan/vegetarian options so everyone can enjoy it. We got some of their loaded nachos, mac and cheese bites, the West Virginia Slaw dog, and their limited time special: the Philly dog.

Quick and scrumptious bite. 👌🏼 Brother introduced me to this place, really enjoyed it. Gourmet style hotdogs with a very energetic, bright atmosphere. Can be a little chaotic. Ordered premium Brisket and Slaw Dog and Hot Tot-cho Dog. The Hot Tot-cho was very delicious. Surprisingly better than the premium one. Will have to return to try out more style dogs 🌭

Come here every month or so. I always order their CBJ dog in my wiener basket. The vegan dog is all right, I just love that they have vegan cheese and bacon bits! Their fries and tots are also always hot and fresh.

Nice little place and friendly service. I just sat at the bar and ordered one veggie dog at a time. Longest I waited for each dog to come out from the kitchen was 2 or 3 minutes. Every dog is different and wildly unique. Prices are extremely reasonable in this day and age which lets you sample a bunch of the menu items affordably. Went back 3 times in 3 days ! Highly recommended.

This is the cutest Place! Stopped here after landing at the Columbus airport and was able to get a table right away. The restaurant was chock full of wiener puns as any self respecting hotdog restaurant should be. The tots were cooked perfectly and their adult beverages were cheap and strong.

Came here one night for a Yelp event to try their new Hot Mama dog and fries. I had never been before and was suprised by the quality of the food and the amazing service. The ingredients are fresh and the fries are flavorful and crispy. The Hot Mama dog is spicy for real so be prepared to sweat! Would love to come back and try the other hot dogs!

My new favorite place!!!! This restaurant is amazing. They have a large menu of unique items and tons of hot dog options and toppings I've never seen before. VERY vegan and vegetarian friendly. Any hot dog can be swapped for a veggie dog, and many of the meat based toppings such as bacon bits and chili they have a vegetarian version of. As a vegetarian this made me so happy I could try almost anything on the menu. The basket combo is great bc you can pick 2 hot dogs and get a side of fries and tots for 12 bucks and trust me this is more than enough food. I cannot wait to come back, they have something for everyone here.

Loved how many options their menu has!! It has vegetarian and vegan options as well. The restaurant is located in downtown Columbus and the parking is not free, but the service is fast so it shouldn’t take more than 1 hour. We went there for lunch and I ordered “The Old Faithful” with a veggie dog and a side of tots. You could just tell that they changed their frying oil often because the tots tasted amazing. The hot dog was the perfect size for a lunch bite and it tasted absolutely delicious!

First time ever stopping by here! The food was fresh, the staff was kind, and there was a good variety of different items on the menu to choose from. I got the 2 hot dogs with tater tots meal, I believe, for $12.99. A nice amount of food! Even to be shared if you only wanted one hot dog. Would recommend the visit!

After YEARS of learning that Dirty Frank's existed in Columbus, the stars aligned and I finally had the chance to go!

For sides, I ordered the vegan mac n cheese and cajun french fries. The fries were immaculate and in my french fry rulebook, couldn't be better. I loved the texture of the mac but would suggest adding some toppings in there for a few more pops of flavor!

The menu is clearly labeled for all dietary restrictions and there are SO MANY OPTIONS! Here's what I got:

🌭 The CBJ dog
Cheese sauce, bacon bits, jalapenos

🌭 Archies big boston
Boston baked beans, onion, cheddar

Too hard to pick a favorite... Neither lasted long! :) I can't wait to go back! Service was so quick (we went on a Sunday afternoon) and there's plenty of street parking and paid lots nearby.

This is a must stop when we come to Columbus from Northeast Ohio. The hot dogs are great, I love the variety. The staff was even better, friendly, attentive, and accommodating. My little one fell asleep before we made it inside and slept through the whole meal. The staff made sure we had her order ready to go on case she woke up.

Fantastic place for a hotdog, offering outstanding service and even catering to gluten-free options with their buns. The Chicago dog was especially delightful.

Jay is an amazing server. Highly recommend coming Monday nights. The dogs were filling and the toppings were tasty treats. They ran out of watermelon juice but that's okay. Jay replaced it with grenadine. Never stop eating here.
