Tallahassee · Since 1984

Our Story

A living slice of Tallahassee's culinary history — and we’re just getting warmed up.

Four Decades of Putting on the Dog

Since our founding in 1984, we’ve been dedicated to delivering authentic American flavors with a touch of nostalgia. Our passion for serving up the finest hot dogs and classic comfort foods has stood the test of time, making us a cherished destination for locals and visitors alike.

Hot dogs are the heart of what we do — but the menu runs deep: hand-pattied burgers, loaded Philly cheesesteaks, hand-cut fries in real beef tallow, and warm apple pies to finish.

A Community Gathering Spot

Our restaurant isn’t just a place to eat; it’s a community gathering spot where stories are shared and memories are made. As you step through our doors, you’re not just a customer — you’re part of our extended family, welcomed by a warm ambiance that makes the food taste even better.

Good food plus positivity. That’s the whole recipe.

Bold, Local & Full of Character

From the checkered baskets to the big red sign, Dog Et Al has always had personality to spare. Our mascot says it best — bold flavor, big character, and serious pride in every plate.

Come see us at 3437 Bannerman Rd, or bring the whole crew together with catering.
