When we call Uncle Franky's a "dog joint" we mean it in more ways than one. Clearly, they are hot dog aficionados, the 10ft. high menu offers Vienna all beef dogs, polish, Italian sausage, you name it. Have it like you like it, topped with chili, sauerkraut, day-glo relish, ketchup and mustard, raw onions, drippy cheese, or plain and naked. For under $10 you can dive into an all-you-can-eat personal dog-a-thon. As you walk in and see Cartoon Network playing on the giant corner TV, the other reason it's a dog joint will hit you: Uncle Franky's is a veritable shrine to Scooby Doo, complete with lime green and periwinkle decor accented with orange and Scoobies. Grab a thick malt and some heart stopping cheesy fries with your dogs and park the Mystery Machine out back.

How do you know if a hot dog joint is serious about its Chicago-style dogs? They'll take it off the menu if they run out of celery salt. (It's that important!) Uncle Franky's, in Nordeast, is the best chicago-style lunch joint in town, a nice complement to South Minneapolis's Joey D's and the Wedge's Bulldog. They also have shakes and malts! And the Scalia italian beef sandwich is really great too.
