Mean Weiner 4/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Food: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 Service: 🌟🌟🌟 Cleanliness: 🌟🌟🌟 Atmosphere: 🌟🌟🌟 Price: 🌟🌟🌟🌟 MEAN WEINER has a lot of good things going for it, and some things that it could improve on. THE GOOD: Good portion of food. Very filling. Prices are reasonable ($10-15) per meal. Hot Dogs were delicious and large. Cashier was helpful and attentive. Inside and outdoor seating. THE IMPROVEMENTS: Tables were sticky, but clean. Took 15 minutes to get the food out for an order of four (wasn't too busy). Jumbo sized dogs were almost too big (bun and toppi

This place used to be fantastic. 10 years ago I would come in at least twice a month and their food always rocked. Their quality of food (outside of their awesome fresh cut fries) slowly dipped and I stopped going. I went back today and placed an order online. I added a side order of "fresh cut fries" online and received frozen fries instead. I called to ask about that and they said they're doing new fries now. I asked why on their large menu inside and online it still says they're serving fresh cut fries. They said they were getting to it. I asked for a refund on the fries and they said no.

The foot long, regular, torta and finger sticks on the spot. Delicious and different

Jason Lockard★★★★★

Absolutely delicious! The Mean Wiener is hands down one of the best spots for a quick and flavorful meal. While their hot dogs are fantastic, their tacos are seriously underrated—they’re fresh, packed with flavor, and always hit the spot! The staff is super friendly, the service is quick, and the atmosphere is fun and welcoming. Whether you’re craving a classic Chicago dog or some amazing tacos, this place never disappoints. Highly recommend!
