If I'm craving hotdogs again, I know where I'll be going! Yummy and great fusion flavors and sausage options. Also have vegetarian options available. Also located in a building full of great, eclectic hole-in-a-wall eateries.

チリホットドック
We tried the 3 vegan/plant-based options with 2 of them "Chicago" style and one plain (ketchup/mustard). The veggie dogs (original and Italian Garlic and Fennel) were quite tasty. Firm enough and flavorful. I would recommend these. The "Nawt Dawg" is a carrot that I imagine is marinated. I found it quite soft/mushy and really just tasted like boiled carrot.... wouldn't do that one again, but the veggie ones I would! Hot dogs come with a bag of (Lay's) chips, vegan options available

Veggie Dog
The elevated hot dog, for sure! I really enjoyed the variety of hot dogs they offer. I had the Aloha Dog and the Spicy Delight. Both were delicious, flavorful and worth it. Definitely the place to get a hot dog fix! Stop by if you can.

Spicy Mayo
Saucy dogs throws it down. So many options from vegan dogs ability to customize. Gluten free buns are no longer available, but they make it delicious without the bun. Plus quick and friendly service!

Saucy Dogs serves up some tasty South Island dawgs. Soft bun, choice of weiner, and either pre-made fixins or choose your own.
It was the first time trying a red Hawaiian dog which is a mix of pork and beef, and is actually red, but mm it was good.
Had the Chicago Dog with ketchup (sorry Chicago) and the Spicy Dog with jalapeños, pepper jack, and Chipotle mayo.
All dogs with chips on the side.
Two dogs, two side chips and a drink all for under $20.
And super duper friendly service.

If you're looking for local food, this is the place to go. You can get a very delicious hot dog for a reasonable price. The bread is especially soft and the ham is chewy. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is just like a local restaurant. I'm thinking of visiting Hilo just to eat a hot dog.

Love their hot dog creations. Super friendly fun and real staff. Aloha spirit is unmatched here. Store is super clean. Each variety is different and goes amazingly well with your choice of frank and the Hawaiian hot dog sweet bread. Quality is amazing. Out of all the hot dog places in Hilo saucy dogs has the best location. Next to stores shops and the ocean so you can take your wiener to go. Overall amazing classic old school beach style hot dog joint with its own distinctive taste. Great people and full of flavor. I’m a fan and will definitely be back.
Fun, unique, family friendly build your own hot dog experience. Short lunchtime hours so always check to make sure if it is open if you plan to stop by. A few tables and benches outside. Really reasonable prices for the build your own option. Veggie dog available for the vegetarian visitors. Friendly staff that greet you with Aloha and even write Mahalo on the to go box (50 cents for t go boxes). Next time I'll bring the family and let the kids build a Saucy dog.
