Meh. I really wanted to like Buldogis but it just didn't live up to the Yelp hype.
I don't expect a hot dog restaurant to be extremely fancy but with the word "gourmet" in the name they could work on the decor a little bit. One of the things that really bothered me was the excessive use of demanding signage everywhere within the restaurant. There was one that specified that there is a 2 napkin limit allowed per customer which is ridiculous when you realize how messy these hotdogs really are. Apparently there's a camera watching you above the napkin dispenser - So I took 5, what can I say I'm a little rebel.
I ordered the Angry Dog which was spicy pork, asian slaw, spicy mayo, and jalapeƱos (fresh raw jalapeƱos) on top of a hot dog. These things are massive and I would recommend sharing with a friend if you want to order fries as well. I felt like the toppings were just too much at one time. I don't think I appreciate meat on meat on meat but that could be just me. It was salty and overwhelming rather than complementary. I think that their execution could be done with more finesse and it looked as though everything was just thrown on.
I also had the "Carne Asada" fries which were pretty average as well. Upon further thought I realized I should've ordered the Angry Kimchi sweet potato fries which seems to be more popular and could have balanced out the saltiness of the hot dogs.
I mean the meats are good but not extraordinary, same goes for the toppings. Combined with the average service (they completely forgot my best friend's order) and average decor I really don't have the urge to return anytime soon. Plus I'm still thirsty from the hot dog I ate 5 hours ago.
