Redhot Ranch is a counter-service stand built around Chicago-style hot dogs, fries, and burgers, with a double cheeseburger that's developed a following of its own. The Lake View location is one of several — sister spots operate in Bucktown, on 35th Street, and in Skokie — but each runs the same straightforward, order-at-the-counter format.
Eater has named Redhot Ranch among its picks for the city. Among regulars, the draw is simple: cheap, fast food that keeps people coming back.
