What People Are Saying About Wild About Harry's
Featured Review

In Short – A giant cartoon-like hot dog greats patrons at the door of the fun-oriented shop. This kid-friendly restaurant can be enjoyed by any age. Based on a secret recipe culled in Oklahoma in the 1920s, Harry's frozen custard has less fat than premium ice cream and manages to be creamier. Harry's also features garlicky, all-beef, heavy hot dogs. The regular, Texas, New York and Chicago will change minds about the sophistication of America's favorite dog.
Editor's Tips
- What to Drink:
- Try washing that dog down with a luscious peanut butter milk shake.
- Look Good:
- Keep the kids busy on their sugar highs by sending them to the corner chalkboard to draw.

Not Wild About Harry's
by smumustang at Citysearch
After a couple of years of buying the Mort's Favorite sundae, I thought a mistake had been made when opening my "to go" order of two of these at home and discovering they were half the size they should of been....I called the Knox street store and the guy who answered informed me he didn't know what I was talking about, the size had not changed and then offered no further suggestions, like bring it back, etc...I asked to speak to the manager and she rudely informs me they discovered they were putting too much custard in 16 oz cups and now were using 12 oz cups (in reality probably 8 oz cups) and in order to not to raise prices were now giving a smaller size. When I said that by not informing the customer they were now getting less or giving the option of paying more for different size and that this is not a good way to do business, she hung up on me. I will never go back to Wild About Harry's because this is not only lousy customer service but is a dishonest way to do business. The current staff is definitely not the same friendly staff from years past. Especially the rude manager.

Great Diamond in the Rough!

Definitely a great hole in the wall. The hot dogs, the italian beef and the shakes are top notch. Rivals anything I've had in Chicago. Service was fast and friendly. Seating can be a little tight when busy...but any wait...is worth the wait. Highly recommended!
- Pros: Dogs, Italian Beef & Shakes
- Cons: Seating

Great cheap food!!!!!
by asanders005 at Citysearch
Accidentally stumbled upon this place while shopping and couldn't resist a meal at a place with a giant hot dog out front!!! Best hot dog and fries I have ever eaten I believe....or at least pretty close. Friendly family atmosphere......would definately recommend for a quick cheap meal!
