Dirty Frank's Hot Dog Palace is a quirky, fun hot dog spot in downtown Columbus that will grab you with its bright colorful façade and chairs before you even try the dogs that are taking Columbus by storm.
The artist Thom Lessner has done all the art, from the colorful logo to the paintings that cover the walls. This fabulous looking hot dog palace serves hot dogs you have never tasted before.
The classic and best-seller is their Chicago beef dog, but the lineup is difficult to resist: there is a chilli dog with slaw spiked with sriracha, Nikola with tzatziki sauce and green relish, Ohiana with jalapeño corn relish, Seoul Dog with kimchi, and a Bollywood Dog with spicy mango chutney. Add some fries, baked beans, mac and cheese, and cold root beer or a cream soda and you will be a fan for life.
