Walked in and ordered the Squid Ink, which has half mozzarella, half hotdog, and squid ink in the batter. Not bad for a novelty item, but I think next time I’ll order something with potato. I’ve had better hotdogs, but it wasn’t bad, and the cute crispy “tentacles” at the end were perfect! Can’t comment on the cornbread itself because of the squid ink. *Great* amount of mozzarella. They have an impressive variety of sauces (probably one of the best things and this place) and the service was friendly: nice girl at the cashier, and a cool dude chopping the potatoes behind her. The windowsill low “bench” serves as the seating area. I do wish they had some kind of floormat near the entrance since it’s… Winter. Everyone is coming in with their shoes wet with snow, you know? Aside from that, no complaints about the place. I *will* be coming back.

Worth the wait! They’re made to order and always fresh. The corn dogs were good and the experience was worth it.
The dough wasn’t flavorful as it felt like it’s missing cornbread flavor.. felt bland.
Overall it’s not a bad place if your in the area!

We were in this area as tourists and it seemed like a very popular place. Lots of college students hanging around. So we went in and ordered several different options. There were five of us, two adults and three teenagers and we absolutely loved everything we ordered. There’s so much variety and things to choose from. I can’t imagine somebody not finding something they would be interested in on the menu. It was such a cool twist on a traditional dish. Definitely recommend and would try again!

Right off the bat, the smells are what drew me in. Yummy fried carbs and cheese galore! Only downsides are the store was pretty small and bare bones decor, although I don’t think the purpose of this spot is to deliver a boutique atmosphere. But anyways, they delivered the food quickly, and the staff was friendly. I would shorten the length of the stick just a tad so it doesn’t poke you in your first bite. It’s nice and crunchy, it came nice and hot. I don’t love the breading—it was good, it just didn’t taste like much. The sauces are meh. They should give sauce to dip rather than topping the dog with the sauce. I think I’ll go back. Maybe not all the time, but sometimes.

If you’re wondering if you should try this place, the answer is yes! I ordered a “corn”dog with rice cake and then potatoes (as an add-on) outside and the squid ink corn dog. Despite being lactose-intolerant, I fully enjoyed both. They were delicious with sweet chili and honey mustard sauces.
I also appreciated how even though they were pretty busy at ~8pm they got my order done in like 5-10 minutes.
Would recommend!

Historically I don’t review chain stores, but this store is so rare in Minnesota that I find it necessary to do so. To have it in Minneapolis is definitely a blessing! Overall I think the Korean hot dogs are well made, and depending on the type one chooses to get, the amount of cheese or hot dog included will vary. Some kinds tend to have a lot more flour than what is inside. As a result, sometimes it may be hard to be full with just one hot dog. In terms of sauce and topping, one will need to carefully choose. It tastes good regardless, but some ingredients don’t necessarily go together as much as others. I think the classic ketchup and mustard will work just fine, even if this is not American hot dog!

Quinton was the nicest corndog person I have ever met. The service was superb and top quality. 10/10 on Quinton! Keep up the great work! He recommended the deep fried chocolate and I lost my marbles over how yummy and delish it was!

I was a bit hesitant to try this place because I’ve never been a huge fan of corn dogs so I was a bit skeptical. Let me start off my saying I was dead wrong! We ordered a few different hot dogs and let me tell you, they were well worth the wait! If you plan on visiting soon just be prepared to wait about an hour for your order but it’s 100% worth it!
The food is very visually pleasing and the taste is phenomenal! I would 10/10 recommend giving this place a try and you won’t regret it! They need a state fair stand next!!!
The shop is a bit small when placing your order so you’ll most likely have to wait outside until your order is ready, they have lots of hot dog options and sauce options as well!

This is so yummy Korean cron dog. And my kids they’re loving it. THEY ARE SO KIND AND SWEET. they are so happy to help us. I was feeling so pleased ☺️ . Just FYI they’re having the smallest of Corner of a shop if you want to get waiting on the line for the corn dog so I think that it is pretty good if you don’t have on in mind to pick you should pick the mozzarella on it is super good
