Don't sleep on their breakfast burritos. They have a number of creative, different and delicious options and they are a darn good deal at $9. The loaded tots are also great especially with a pint from Benbears beers.
I've have to apologize to Angie at the dog house as I've been eating at this amazing food cart for over a year and have not posted. If your are in SE Portland & 50th and want an off the charts hot dog, burger or a home made burrito - you must stop and eat !!! Their home made burgers and their sauces are scrumptious - the hot dogs are also yummy and of course their breakfast burritos are really really superb!! Lastly you in Portland - don't forget to order their Tatar Tots Bon Appetite Ronn just Ronn The hole in the wall food guy
I stopped in since, honestly, most of the other carts in this pod were closed. I'm definitely NOT a hot dog person, so something must have really been extraordinarily temping about the "Bacon Cheddar Dog" for me to order one here. Much unlike another brick-and-mortar "gourmet hot dog" place I reviewed, The Doghouse really knows how to do dress up an otherwise "normal" hot dog. The hot dogs here are served on a very large (what I suspect is a Costco hot dog) bun, which is absolutely filled to the brim with whatever style of hot dog topping you ordered. In my case, it was a comically large amount of perfectly cooked, crisp, and lean bacon over an overly generous amount of cheddar cheese. Somewhere underneath all of that is the actual hot dog. It was absolutely, amazingly, great! Despite the thoughtful proprietor's asking me if I wanted cutlery and happily supplying it, it didn't help me to eat it. These must be tackled head-on, with your hands getting rather messy in the process. It was absolutely worth it! The French fries were excellent as well...hot, crispy, flavorful, and fresh! They also offer burgers, including the Impossible Burger. I'll probably opt for one of those the next time. I'm happy that most of the other carts were closed, and that I had the opportunity to check The Doghouse. I'm looking forward to my next visit!
I've found that the better breakfast burritos are at Mexican food places, but there are standout exceptions like at the Doghouse. Too bad I don't like mushrooms because they're part of most of the creations at this cart. The Icognito - without mushrooms - was so good. The shredded potatoes are crisy, rather than cubed and boiled. The grilled onions and aioli complement it well. Likewise, the Love Actually was a winner. Unfortunately, I didn't care for the Siren's Call. It's the first option for breakfast burritos so maybe it's a crowd favorite. Size wise, the burritos are big and provide decent value compared to others in town. The soon-to-be new owner is cool. Parking can be tough.
I had the tater tot bowl and it was soooooo good!! Perfectly cooked tots with bacon and cheese and an egg!! It was ready quickly and the guy was super nice. I'm so glad I got this!!
