Chicago Joe's - Lynden

We both got the Chicago Dog special and were blown away with how delicious everything was, even down to fry sauce. Service was super friendly too! We only wish there was more!

Have you ever had a sudden craving for a chili cheese dog? You picture it in your mind: a plump hot dog smothered in delicious chili, melted cheddar cheese and diced onions...YUM. If you DO crave one, do not go to Chicago Joe's. You will be quite disappointed. You get a strangely skinny hot dog, a spoonful of chili that barely has any flavor and a sprinkle of cheese and onions. Incredibly bland. You can eat it without making even the tiniest mess, so there's that. BUT, if you really want a good chili cheese dog, choose El Capitan's on Cornwall in Bellingham. They get it right. Honestly not sure how Chicago Joe's consider themselves a hot dog place. Two stars because at least the fries didn't suck.

Coming from the Greater Chicagoland area, I am ecstatic to have this place in Whatcom county. The Italian beef is delicious (dipped of course, but ask for it dry with a side of Au Jus if you don’t want it soggy). I am mild girardinara person, but they also have hot. The Chicago style hotdog is spot on.My husband had the burger and said it was the best burger he has had in 5 years. And you can get a beef combo so that is amazing. Also got the wings I always prefer wings dry and then the sauce on the side which is how they come.Decor is pretty spot on for an Italian beef place you would find in Chicago as well.

Expensive for what you get and my sandwich was soggy. The sausage was gross. The theme is cheezy, just a bunch of Chicago pictures slapped up on the walls. Not impressed.

Amazing food! If you're tired of the same ol' same ol', Chicago Joe's is just the ticket. Italian beef sandwiches (ask for it wet), Chicago style hotdogs and more! Step into the restaurant and be transported to The Windy City- from the food to the decor- Joe really knows how to take you to Chicago! They also have an Underground Burger grill- so no matter what you're craving, there's something for the whole family.
