Superdawg Drive-In
A drive-in restaurant opened in 1948, featuring two iconic giant hot dog figures on the roof and preserving traditional carhop service.
Superdawg was founded in 1948 by husband-and-wife duo Maurie and Flaurie Berman. Located at the intersection of Milwaukee and Devon avenues in the northwest side, its signature landmark is the pair of 12-foot-tall hot dog figures on the roof. The owners claim it is Chicago's only remaining drive-in that still offers traditional carhop service to your vehicle. The signature Superdawg is an all-beef hot dog served on a poppy seed bun with mustard, relish, pickled green tomato, onion, and hot peppers, accompanied by fries. It is located far from downtown, making it ideal for those driving; open late.
