Big Dogs Hot Dogs — Local services in Hawaii

It can take a while to get here since it is right at the intersection of Hwy 11 and South Point Road, but it is very much worth it!! My husband and I are not big hot dog fans, and I would consider these gourmet island style. We did not try the jumbo all beef but the portuguese sausage, hotlink and pineapple pork were all excellent. He also has lots of condiments to compliment the sausage flavors. Seating is outdoors and next to a cut your own flowers garden. There can be a wait and the food is made when ordered. Again, very definitely worrh the wait. We split a dog the first time, and the 2nd time we went, we moved up to a dog each. They were so delicious we could not help ourselves. Pro tip - ask him what he thinks goes best with that particular dog and go crazy with the condiments. Believe me! It is all good! Next time we will eat there and bring some back...

A hidden gem with amazing hot dogs and a beautiful garden!

Stopped by Big Dog’s Hot Dogs and were blown away! We tried the all-beef jumbo dog and the Portuguese Big Lorenzo local style—both were absolutely delicious. You can really taste the quality. The cook prepped everything fresh, slicing all the toppings right in front of us. Huge portions and packed with flavor.

While waiting for the dogs, we got to stroll through his wife’s gorgeous flower garden, which was such a pleasant surprise. You can even buy flowers right from the garden, making the stop even more special.

Incredible food, warm hospitality, and a unique local experience you won’t get anywhere else. Definitely...

Planned ahead to come to Big Dogs after our hike in Volcanoes today, and we were not disappointed! Chatting about “butt-kicker” movies, and enjoying some of the best hot dogs ever really made our day. Big shout out to Jermbo the chicken, and I really hope you had a great pizza and movie night with the family!

This place is a must stop if you’re on the big island. The Portuguese sausage w the griddled cheese, loaded with bacon and onion, topped with fry sauce and sriracha was perfect. And you can go wrong with the pork and pineapple sliced up and charred to perfection either. Thank you for a meal we won’t...
