Okay so, I had high hopes. The pretzel hotdog bun wasn't fresh. It wasn't toasted either. Maybe add an option for a toasted bun. The hotdogs seemed unthawed then obviously grilled. It was mediocre at best, unfortunately 😕. I loved the coleslaw though- yummy on all levels! The pickles are tasty and crispy. Maybe this order was a miss but I was not satisfied. Good portions, LOTS of food; it will fill you up. I ordered the plain dawg. My fries weren't great either- I got the ends and they were super oily .

Hot dogs are massive. Great portions. I was expecting it to be soggy since i ordered it on uber eats but it was honestly looking and tasting perfect when it came. It got me stuffed. Very satisfied

If you’re looking to satisfy the craving for street meat hot dogs, you’ll still be searching after ordering here. While these hot “dawgs” are packed and marketed well, and I give credit for the aesthetic, they lack one key component: taste. The bun was hard, poorly constructed yet also somehow soggy. Could not manage to eat without everything falling out of the bun and sliding off of the hot dog. I expected more from a $20 hot dog. An experience with these will surely leave you with a feeling of gratitude for the modest, underrated hot dog vendors downtown.

Ordered via delivery app, a few items in the box got tumbled but nothing concerning. The food looks the way it is presented on their menu photo which was cool. The hot dog itself is great on first bite, it's juicy with a tasty salty sausage taste. However I found it way too salty and unable to finish it on its own (the ends of sausages that stuck out from the bun). The pretzel bun was good. The crust on the pretzel bun makes it hard to get a nice bite into the hot dog because it is quite tough. Looking at the cross section of the dawg, it's quite a bit of bread. It looks like it's enough to counteract the saltiness of the sausage but the saltiness still overpowers. We tried the Bodega Dawg aka The NYC & Dawg gone aka The Ballpark Chilli and Cheese. Both had good flavour combo of toppings. I would give this place 3 stars for the sausage being so salty and the bun being hard to eat BUT the real highlight from this meal box was the coleslaw. 👏👏👏 the coleslaw is slightly sweet and a pleasant mild taste that really help mellow the saltiness of the dawgs. It was delicious and it took the dawg to a different level of flavour. And for this, I give them 4 stars. We also got onion rings and sweet potato fries for the side. Onion rings were pretty good. Nicely crunchy despite it coming from delivery, and we were able to get a good bite into the onion ring each time without the onion slipping/pulling out from the fried coating. The sweet potato fries were as good as they get. They were soft, lost its crispness but that is usually expected from sweet potato fries. This one came with a side dipping sauce and this was delicious. Not sure what it is, it's similar to the typical sauce you get for sweet potato fries at most restaurants but it had more of a kick to it. It was a great dipping sauce for onion rings too. Update: tried the leftover dawgs after heating it with a microwave and it softened the pretzel bun making the dawg easier to eat. Still chewy but that's normal for a pretzel.

What an awesome food idea! We haven’t had a great tasting hotdog chain in ages with the only one in Canada I could remember being Nathan’s you guys have not only chosen the best sausage but also added the greatest bun a pretzel bun and bomb ingredients! The pickles and coleslaw were scrumptious and fries were delicious and the hotdog was well worth the price considering everything you get in the box and how big and tasty it is! I will certainly be back!

First time trying Durty Dawgs. I received a buy one get one free promo and ordered two of the chilli cheese hot dog combos with fries and coleslaw. The meal portion was definitely big. The condiments (ketchup, mustard, pickles) were a nice finishing touch. Definitely interested in trying another hot dog.

The best Skip the dishes order I've ever eaten. It came in a box perfect, nothing was out of place not one topping not one fry. It's the first time a restaurant has displayed their food on their site and actually delivers it to you looking just like it does on the site. It tastes even better. Worth every penny. I'd try all the hot dogs they have!

For years my boyfriend has told me that his childhood revolved around Nathan's hotdogs and how good they were. I thought he was full of it until I tried one here. They taste different in a very good way and I understand why they are so much more expensive than a standard dog. Really happy with the quality of their food. Big shout out to their delicious pretzel buns too 👏🏾

My daughter chose the Mac and Cheese from their location at the National Open and let me tell you it was so gross. It was cold and unedible. Just terrible. Kraft dinner is way better.

I tried the 2 for 1 deal on Uber Eats because i was hesitant spending so much on a Dawg. I would gladly go back and pay regular price just to try all the different ones they offer. To Kijiji User who it sounds like you ordered on Skip the Dishes and your order taking 1 hr 30 mins to arrive. You cant blame the restaurant for that delay. Obviously the store had it ready and had to wait for a driver to pick it up. Reasons for this delay i think i can figure out. Delivery Drivers for Skip and Door Dash we see how much the trip pays us including customer Tip. We know when the customer doesnt tip. Youre bidding for a drivers time. Drivers dont have to accept low paying orders. NO TIP = NO TRIP. I can almost guarantee you didnt tip and drivers just declined it.

The food is actually not bad, we enjoyed it and would buy again. But ordering from skip the dishes was a nightmare. Its nobodys fault really but Im saying this as a warning to anyone who plans to order for delivery. Our order was placed at 6pm and didnt arrive until nearly 8pm. This is mostly just Yorkdale to blame for how crazy that place is in terms of the amount of people there and the worthless parking lot. My skip driver told me the majority of his time was spent trying to find a place to park and then getting out of Yorkdale traffic. Just keep this in mind.

DURTY DAWGS is the bombbbbb Ordered via UberEats for a late night snack and was NOT disappointed. Not only was the food tasty as hell, but the packaging was super dope and creative. Dogs were filling and delicious, fries were crispy and yummy, and coleslaw was a nice palette change. Can t wait to try more durty dawgs in the near future!

A lot bigger than expected but maybe still a little on the pricey side at $15-$20 a dog. It really is a foot long though. The hot dog itself was a little salty but all in all good stuff.

This place is amazing! I think its absolutely worth the price. Ive ordered Durty Dogs from Skip The Dishes twice and both times I was not disappointed. Far from it, I was impressed. Ive tried three different dogs, and all of the sides and I plan on getting more in the future. Ps. I took pictures after I dug in because I was so excited.

The food I did get was delicious, but they forgot to add multiple items in my skip the dishes order!!! Terrible experience! And because it was on skip the dishes it is impossible to hold them accountable for this mistakes!
