I think just about any food loving person visiting Vancouver knows to try Japadog. The difference between this location and the street stands is the shaked fries . I recommend the butter shoyu fries ! ♥

Kim Lawlor

I am a big fan of regular boring hotdogs , so when I tried Japadog for the first time, it blew my mind!!!! I would come over from Vancouver Island just for Japadog. I would recommend the terimayo.

CNN

Japadog’s signature item is the Terimayo: an all-beef hot dog topped with teriyaki sauce , Japanese mayo , fried onions and shredded seaweed . Read more

Simran Dass

I really liked the variety here & the cool and innovative options for a simple staple such as a hotdog . I got the Croquette one and it was fantastic, especially the sauce

Connor Turner

The spicy cheese Terimayo with shichimi and garlic fries is a pretty safe bet if you are overwhelmed by the options and variety. I was reluctant to try it for over year, but it's worth the hype.

Elizabeth Burstein

Avo hot dog and fries . Super incredible!

Wendy Bonzo

This is a favorite stop when I'm in Vancouver. The seasoned fries are yummy and every hotdog I've tried was great.

Ryan Campbell

Vancouver has the best Japanese food outside of Japan. They also have this. #4 is awesome but there isn't anything on the menu that doesn't look delicious.

Bernardo Pérez Dounce

Great hot dogs with a Japanese twist. Don’t forget to order a side of fries

Roy N

Not sure why there is so much hype. It's a hot dog with some interesting things on it but doesn't taste amazing. It's fine if you want to try a different kind of hot dog but don't go out of your way.

Rafael Ruiz

It is something typical from Vancouver. It is not what I was expecting but I am not disappointed. You should come and try it!

Ryan Brenizer

Try the Teri Mayo J - I wanted only-in-Vancouver food, and I got it. If these guys ever expand to brooklyn and the LES I want in on the ground floor.

Jeehae Lee

Terimayo surely is a safe bet for a quick snack . Black sesame ice cream hotdog is an excellent dessert choice.

Christian

Loved both the Terimayo Dog as well as the Butter & Shoyu fries . Ice cream next.

M.G. Siegler

Excellent go early before the best ones sell out.

You can find Japadog stands a number of places; worth a try. My favorite is the Oroshi dog by far.

Amy Luo

Love the kurobuta terimayo and okonomi dogs . The age ice cream is AMAZING.

Craig R

If you want something different than your standard terimayo, try the oroshi dog - grated japanese radish (daikon ), green onion and a little soy sauce .

William Ng

Oroshi - daikon and soy sauce goes well with the pork bratwurst !

Melissa

The terimayo is a classic. And I usually prefer crispy fries , but the soft floppy ones here are amazing!

Will H.

Go with the kurobata, Dave your money on the fries . The former is delicious, the latter is almost non-existent (portions of fries are TINY!)

Martin Weigert

Simply an awesome place if you like both hotdog and typical flavors of Japanese food .

Peter Uren

I really like the Tonkatsu . But if the idea of Ice cream served in a deep fried hot dog bun sounds too good to be true, then you have to try the Age Ice.

J

If you're here, you have to try the fries ! The butter shots flavour is my fave

Walter Siu

New to this world famous hot dog place? Try the Terimayo. You can't go wrong. My personal favorite? Tonkatsu . Interesting take on the classic pork cutlet .

Cody Hatt

Fries were a little under cooked but otherwise awesome! Sea weed on a hotdog is awesome!

Kamil Rafuson

I go back here every other week. Best "hotdog " out there :)

高手놀리밑™

Try the poutine with Japanese curry

Andrew C

I recommend the most popular #1 and the more delicious #2.

@JaumePrimero

Virgins, the Kurobuta Terimayo is a must. It all started here!

Fernanda Inomata

Everything is good!!!

Silvia Umezaki

I love the okonomi hotodog! It’s really nice ✌????

Dexter Freshman

$10 buys you a hotdog , drink and shake fries . Good deal .

Byron K

Only Japadog where you can sit and dine-in

Michael Discenza

Great hot dogs but in my list of places with the worst possible seating layout

Classic terimayo with wasabi mayo is a must try.

Nabil Bazzari

Very simple place. Best hot dogs ever

Kristine JD

Matthew Huie

The kurobuta terimayo is delicious!

Ambybutt

This place is so good that even Japanese girls flock to it to take selfies with piece signs.

Michelle Cui

Can't go wrong with meal #1 and butter Shoyu fries !!!

Nicola Peragine

For anyone looking for a kick of spice, definitely try the spicy cheese terimayo!

Susie Lai

The pork terimayo and ice cream is good here

Alice Ferris

Try the Okonomi Dog - Hot dog with Japanese mayo , bonito flakes , fried cabbage

Jim Anderson

Try the Butter and Shoyu French Fries - Tastes like hot buttered popcorn from a theater . $2.39

Ryan

Had the terimayo, wasn't that impressed. Mayo is super sweet

Joshefo Jacques

A little bit odd the mixture of ingredients but real good taste !

Alice Ferris

Try the Croquette Dog - Hot dog with sweet sauce and fried mashed potatoes

Andrew Marshall
