Reviews of Dickie Dee's
One of the iconic food establishments in Newark. Do not let the looks of the place fool you. Some of the best pizza and hot dogs I've ever had. The pizza def has those NYC roots with its thin dough and chewy crust. The sausage slice is so good! Real sausage slices not that crumbed stuff. Oh and the hot dogs. You've never had a hot dog like the D's. Taters, onions and peppers, and whatever condiments u want. Worth every penny. Don't forget to tip the nice staff.
Came back to the old neighborhood just to indulge in a decadent delicious double hot dog!!! It’s worth tolerating the somewhat seedy neighborhood, double-parked cars and idiotic “drivers” with their booming blaring music. What won’t you do for this culinary experience??? We weren’t disappointed! You gotta have a double at least once in your life… this was my first in more than ten years! Loved it!!!!
Nice place to visit for an old school Jersey kinda experience. Hotdogs and Italian Sausage sandwiches served in pizza bread. I wished the ingredients were more mixed so the flavors were more combined together but it was still a yummy sandwich. The pizza was good, especially eating in the shop and having it hot out the oven. Walking a block away to Calandra's bakery for dessert was an added bonus!
Always a good choice, I grew up eating here back in 1974!
Now from time to time I stop in to get something when I'm in the area.
Heard about this place from a co-worker and decided to check it out. I ordered a double dog with everything on it with ketchup. It came with two hot dogs,potatoes and peppers stuffed inside of a piece of Italian bread. It was amazing The inside of the place has an old school Italian pizza place look. It made me remember growing up in New York. If you're in Newark near Bloomfield avenue check it out
Listen... if your hungry & you want THEE BEST meal, stop at Dickie Dees in Newark NJ!! I grew up on Dickie Dees, but 33 years later, I still can't get enough!! I order from them minimum two times a week. Single hotdog with potatoes (well done- so perfectly crispy on the outside, but still so delicious and soft on the inside) with ketchup- YUM! The pizza is the cheapest around yet still an amazing pie (my kids LOVE it)! My husband gets the Cheesesteak with the works- another beyond tastey dealbreaker (better than anything you'd get in Philly)! Go get yourself some Dickie Dees & thank me later!!
This is simply the BEST hot dog ever invented. Been eating here since before I could walk and while I now live several hours away I still make the trip just for a dog and their excellent pizza. Do yourself a favor and order a double hot dog, a slice of pizza and a grape soda.
Hands down home of the Italian hot dog. Always get a double with all the works. Grew up going here a lot of times. Either getting hot dogs or pizza. Always a must stop when visiting the area.
The absolute best hot dog place in jersey. They use the real mini potatoes and the pita type bun.. so filling.
Missed Dickie Dee's A LOT! Not often I'm in the neighborhood. Nothing like a double Italian to fill you up. SO GOOD!
I don't know how anyone in the right mind, could give this place anything shy of 5-star reviews! Their Italian hot dogs, pizza and cheesesteaks are 100% old-school NJ at its very finest, and 100% delicious (as in, out of this atmosphere). Everything is made to order. Clearly, they've been doing something right, as they've been here since the 1950s! Must be tasted to be believed! Enthusiastically recommended to all. A+++++
Went for the famous hot dog, it was good.
Probably the best damn hotdogs on the planet! Double everything.
World's best Italian food since I was little girl and still going strong 💪 😋
This place is CASH ONLY NO CREDIT CARDS AT ALL, it's hard to find parking around there. No wheelchair access.
Great food! Great prices! You definitely should give it a try.
Great Italian Hotdogs but the workers move like Zombies! Extremely slow service plus they overcharged me!
Whenever I am in NJ this is definitely a have to spot. The food is definitely filling and is reasonably priced. I miss this place so much that whenever I go I order 2 or 3 things off the menu. I have to get a couple slices of pizza, an italian cheeseburger, and an italian sausage. The bread is fresh the potatoes are amazing. There is no losing here.
So good it's worth the over a hour ride for an Italian hotdog 🌭
Can never go wrong here. Try the double combo burger with sausage
I've been eating at Dickie Dee's since 1976 in Irvington NJ and years later I'm still eating from them but in Newark NJ. So that in itself says a lot. Highly recommend. Great is the Double combo. Your going to love it.
Surprised how expensive the single Italian hot dog was but I guess everything has gone up
I've been going there since I was a kid (40 plus years) and it's always as delicious as I remember!
One of the best Italian hot dog joints in Jersey. Just perfection.
This place is a gem in Newark. Their service is very simple and straight forward. The food hits the spot everytime and would put a smile on anyone's face. I love coming from time to time and always look forward to either having their dogs or their cheese steaks.
If you like Jimmy Buffs you'll love this place. Enjoy! You're welcome in advanced.
Still great Italian hotdogs been going there since the 1960s.
One of my favorite Italian hot dog places around
My Dad’s fav place to eat and now my fav place to eat if you happen to get the chicken parm sandwich put it in your air fryer .It taste delicious as is but, bomb 💣 🔥after you air fry it 😋 the Italian hot dogs are great especially if you have a hangover . …
Dickie Dee's is a staple on Bloomfield Avenue; brings back so many good memories. I'm so happy they're still around. Eating their hot dog on a pita with roasted peppers, onions and potatoes just hits the spot every time. This place is part of my childhood memories growing up in Newark and never disappoints. Always cross the street and visit Calandra's bakery afterwards to pick up some French bread, the best.
I just came in, with my little man, got 2 single hotdogs and little man got a hot dog with potato’s. Let me express to you that this place and there personally is by far one of, if not THE BEST local spots I’ve been to yet. With there time and patient that expressed with my 6yo “little man” I couldn’t express how thankful I was. And let me tell you there food there was by far one of the best hot dogs I’ve ever had. Thank you guys i HIGHLY RECOMMEND & WILL 100% back. Little man says “I wants to go every Friday.”
We grew up down the street so went here often. Haven't been able to get back for many years until now. Happy to say they are still the same!! Still the best Italian hot dog ever! And those potatoes. And the bread. Hopefully it will be sooner rather than later till we get back there again. Can't wait. My parents in Florida and brother on the west coast were so jealous when they heard I was able to get there.
Dickie Dees! If you so happen to be in Newark, New Jersey... This may be thee best spot to eat out here. Definitely not the healthiest but you can't deny that the food taste good! Not really a suit down and easy restaurant. Obviously there hasn't been an remodel of the place ever. If you judged it from thee outside, you may not even try the place. You could drive past it by mistake. But that's when the negatives stop. This place gets customers all day long! Heads up, it's cash only. Hot fries and chicken parm to go please! Will be back over and over again until I can find better.
Went to Dickie's Dee's today (08-07) and got the double hotdogs sandwich. OMG it was so delicious. Was in town from Columbia SC and visiting family and also was to be attending a wedding. Thank you so much Dickie's Dee's for your Fantastic and Wonderful Customer Service . Also the food was just great. Haven't been there in over 20 years. Another five stars rating for you guys. ❤❤
I grew up eating at this pizzeria. Their pizza is the best. Their sandwiches are the best. The ambiance is amazing. Staff is great, they are clean with their establishment as well as their cooking strategy. As a kid, They were one of the only providers of original R/C Cola since forever. My girlfriend is a huge fan of their meatball sub. I personally love the cheese steak and the double Italian hot dog. Don't even get me started on their potato sandwich and potato plate. You hungry??? Come home to Dickies. And when eating in is back to normal, remember.... "Keep your Feet on Dee Floor."
I have been going there for years! Best Italian hot dogs, hands down! Unfortunately, I now live 50 mins away. We make sure to pick up Dickie Dee's hot dogs and cheese steak sandwiches when we visit family near by!
This place is the bomb!💣
They have the best pizza 🍕, Italian hotdogs, Philly cheese steak 🥩. The guys are awesome. Been eating here from a teenager. Now I'm in my mid- 50's and eat here whenever I'm in town.
This is my first time in the Bloomfield area My sister is having a procedure done I've been waiting 4hrs for her to come out I was browsing Google maps looking for a decent place to grab a bite to eat what a gem I found The best way I can describe this pizza is very cheesy soft crust that will melt in your mouth. I will definitely return to taste the rest of the food The potatoes and other items the guy behind the counter was cooking looked wonderful I will definitely return.
Have been coming here for 20+ years. Best pizza ever! The staff is always so nice & there isnt another spot like this in town that I rate 5 stars. Dine in, take out, deliver; either way your getting great quality pizza. My parents love the hot dog/potatoe sandwiches as well.
Great Hot Dogs the best
Also pizza uuuuumm
OMG! So good! Everything just blended together. I have to travel 50 minutes just to get a good Italian cheeseburger and I was not disappointed. You have to check them out!
I was in Newark N.J. had to stop at my favorite food spot Dickie Dees and pick up a single hot dog in a double sausage and it was good believe me i can't wait to visit Newark again yummy.👍💯💯💯 …
Saw this place on Food Network from my home in NC! It was delicious. I enjoyed my Italian cheeseburger so much I forgot to take pics. Lol
Good customer service and good food! I had the Italian hotdog (double) and a regular slice. The food was hot and fresh. The pizza was thin and had the right amount of crispness. The is parking on the street and there's a small parking lot for the joint. It's right on the corner.
I like Dickie Dee's for their Italian Hot Dogs. They serve them with the traditional Italian bread and potatoes. I usually get a single with everything. The prices are reasonable and if you are not counting calories, you should give this place a try. They serve pizza, hamburgers, cheese steaks, fries etc...I have driven by this place for many years, but I read a review about them in the Star Ledger and decided to give them a visit back in 2015.
The Best Italian Hot Dogs, Burgers, fish Etc..... Love it💞❤💕😍😍💕💞 …
It's one of my wife's favorite places for cold sub sandwiches!
You can also purchase Italian hot dogs and sausage sandwiches and pizza too... Dickie Dee's!
I would absolutely recommend...
I've been going to this place for over 20 years and its, hands down, one of the best pizzerias in Newark. I would give it 5 stars but there is a pizza maker that doesn't take pride in his work; regardless, it's always delicious. Stop by and give it a try, you'll thank me later.
Delicious Combo Italian Hot Dog And Sweet Sausage. Frankie Valli's Favorite Place.
Best italian dogs around area
Saw this on Guy Fieri's triple D but never thought I would go there. While visiting family they took me there. The hot dog sandwich that my relatives and Guy had said was so good was, while good, not really all that. It was a new experience and I'm glad I had the opportunity but it's not a place I would have ever tried on my own.
I try to stop here for their italian hot dogs every time I go to Jersey. Always made to order. Love it!
Friends and family have always raved about eating an Italian hot dog, I now know why! It begins with soft and light bread, mustard on the bottom, hotdogs, onions, peppers (sauteed) then hot sliced potatoes out of the fryer and placed on top with catsup. A mouthwatering style meal that is seasoned and flavorful. The staff was very friendly and treated us like we were family. If you've never tried an Italian hot dog. I highly recommend Dickie Dee's, it was not like anything I've eaten and was better than expected.
This is one of those places that are simply historic and rooted deeply into the culture of Newark. while the Location is Small , Old and more def needs some remodeling love the food and staff make up for it. Get you an italian hot dog that will blown your socks off. the pizza is amazing too.
I grew up grew upGetting Italian hot dogs from this placeNow I live in FloridaAnd I wish I was there to get a real Italian hot dogThis place is the best
At its best as always. I've been a costumer since 1984
Great pizza and by far the best Italian Hot Dogs in New Jersey
My favorite place to eat my pizza!!! I moved 2 Pennsylvania, and when I go 2 brick city my 1st stop is u guess? Dickie Dee's 2 take back 2 PA, My parmesan meatballs sandwich, Large ex chzz pepperoni pizza , definitely delicious!!!
Dickie Dee's is a Newark favorite, with over 50 years of history and a whole lot of character. With so many pizza places in the city alone, Dickie Dee's easily holds it's own. Mostly known for their pizzas and dogs, the rest of their menu may go unnoticed to many. Their steak sandwiches are very understated. The service may be intimidating to some, but it's part of what makes the place unique. Eating indoors may not be for everyone, especially for people who prefer modern interiors and easily accessible seating. Definitely worth a visit though.
Anyone who has been here knows to Keep Dee Feet On Dee Floor. Overall awesome pizzeria, great food and very reasonable prices. Been going here for years can't get a better Newark Style Hot Dog anywhere else.
I had a slice while I waited. Best pizza around.
Tried Italian style hot dog/sausage here first! Wow 5 stars! Then tried the same at Tommy's in Elizabeth: 4 stars...Dickie Dee's wins!
Famous Jersey Italian Hot Dogs! Still the same dogs I grew up on. I like my "double" with the works: potatoes, peppers, onions, ketchup, and mustard. You can get a single, sausage sandwich, and the pizza is good too. C&C cola or a Yoohoo to wash it down. Great place for the kids.
Been going there since my teen years and im 40+, always amazing pizza and.. the double hotdogs with the potatoes and peppers is a must try, breads always soft and the staff are great.
Love this place! Manny is the best! He’s always attentive and gets the order done to perfection. Shoutout the the goat Manny getting it done!
Been coming here since the 60s! Father started bringing me here as a small child when we lived here in Newark. The old guys that ran the place and seemed to ALWAYS be here have not been around for a few years now but thank GOD the food still tastes as good as it always did! While famous for Italian hotdogs their Pizza is some of the best Jersey has to offer and the price (currently like..$7) is quite the deal!
Enjoy this piece of Nostalgic Newarks history. Unless you are the type that goes for fancy dining atmosphere ...
.You wont be disappointed.
I love everything about Dickie Dee's I've been coming here sense I was kid. Over 20 years and the food hasn't changed amazing. Hot dog w/ potatoes in a pita like wrap too die for lol. A must trying if your in the Newark area on Bloomfield.
Everyone was posting about this place on Facebook. Yes. Had not had a good Italian hot dog in a long time. Walking distance from my house. Worth the walk. There was a line. It moves quickly.
Been eatin here for 50 years plus. Best hot dog in the world. Owner is a bit quirky and you get Newark attitude but it just can't be beaten. The best
So very glad I had a chance to visit this place. Went with a small group from work, one of my co-workers is native to the area. Very glad he chose a neighborhood old school restaurant like this instead of some generic place for us out of towners to eat at. Now I had never had an Italian Hotdog, never before this knew there was such a thing. But if I'm checking out a place like this I'm having what they are known for. So I ordered the double Italian Dog. The vat of oil you see the stuff cooking in was different for me, but what the heck wanted to give it a whirl.
Ok get my dog and fries sit down in the vintage seats and have a few fries first they were fine. Now the dog, it was OK I think its the ketchup that I would omit for something else. Very bready considering there are potato's in there too. Seamed to me it needed more meat, peppers and onions. All and all an interesting creation and glad to say I have tried one. Cool place happy to have gone and would recommend anyone take a visit and try it out.
Have been consuming the Italian Hot dogs since 72. Enlisted in the US Army in 75, I'd come home on leave from Colorado and go back with a few doubles. Now retired from the Army I savor the big difference between their food and Army chow. Glad they're still around. Hoo-ah!
Descent Pizza. Great Italian Hot Dogs. Not a good place to eat it due to the lack of modernization but if you're into feeling like it's still the 70s, go for it. Good customer service. Their cheesesteaks are not as good as they used to be but not bad.
Visiting this spot is like stepping back in time. The only place I know that serves authentic Italian style hotdogs. If you've never had an Italian hot dog, treat yourself to a double at Dickee Dee's.
Grew up eating them and will never stop. Absolutely the best Italian hot dog anywhere. Plus, you get the "Nicky Newarker" attitude too! I take mine with potatoes and ketchup only, but in my opinion, you have to request ketchup on the top and bottom. DELICIOUS!
To me a life long HOT DOGS junkie; Dicky Dee's is still the best. It's not a Burger joint or a fancy hot dog joint. I stopped by for the first time in 3 years since I moved out of state. It has not changed in many many years. From the old photos on the wall to The Dogs itself. Owner ship is still the same and the taste of the Double Dog all The Way is remarkably the same as I remembered. Yes there have been others but for me only Dicky Dee's Italian Hot Dogs. Like they say Gotta Go!
I have actually been going to Dickie Dees for over 33 years. I grew up right across the street. I have always loved their food. When I was little my favorite was their tuna sandwiches and of course the pizza.
As I got older I grew to appreciate them being one of the originals in Newark to have the Italian hot dogs and sausages on pita bread with real potatoes (to die for).
It is a family business and everyone I know have always been treated with respect. Those of you who have a less experience must have truly caught them on a "bad" day because it's unheard of.
Best, Italian hot dogs...and vegetarian options. D&D's is an institution and must have for a true Italian old world experience.
This restaurant (that delivered to our hotel) was the only one we called who would actually help us determine what food on the menu was Gluten Free. They had several options, and were willing to accommodate us with requests, like grilled eggplant instead of breaded. Not all of our items needed to be GF. Pizza was amazing
I've been eating at Dickie Dee's for 20 years or more for a reason. This is a well known spot in Brick City, Newark, NJ. I live in PA and every time I visit Newark, NJ I can't leave without going to Dickie Dee's to get a double sausage sandwich. If you ever find yourself in the neighborhood I HIGHLY suggest you drop by. This place is a real historical landmark in Newark.
Classic spot that I grew up on n after every baseball game (that we WON) as a kid playing in the Branchbook diamonds. Today I got a double that is blessed and stuffed with 2 hotdogs, onions, peppers and potatoes. Same great taste and FEELING as I got back in da 90s as a kid.
We come twice a year from NC visit family friends and Dickie Dee's enjoy the Italian hot dogs with everything on it yummy
The chefs here are so nice and excellent in what they do. The food is superb! Low prices and LARGE quantities. The hot dog and sausage combo is amazing and highly recommended. 👌 …
This place is amazing! They are a Pizzeria, but are best known for their Italian hot dogs! A triple comes with 3 deep fried sabrets with onions and peppers on top, topped off with deep fried potatoes all nestled lovingly on a huge half kaiser roll. They also do sausage sandwiches, cheesesteakes, you can put anything on anything. I usually get a triple onto of a cheesesteake. Delicious! You have to get an Italian slice! 1 dog, onions, peppers, taters, on a cheese slice! Awesome!
Delicious cheesesteaks
When I hear native East Coast friends rave about sandwiches with the word “Italian” in it I know it’s worth a try. I had no business being in Newark, but was actually surprised by the # of Spanish restaurants that kept popping up in my searches. I was in town on a layover detour strictly for Dickie Dee’s. A sandwich on an American style fry bread/pita with fried potatoes and fried hot dogs.
Cash money is the name of the game and it’s not unheard of to wait a good minute in line. The location is small, very old, not dingy, but certainly not modern. Great exposure to natural light. Service is pretty good, albeit sloppy. They are not east coast rude for the sake of being east coast rude. They are certainly in the name of keeping it OG being it’s 3rd generation owned. Price point is still very good and those potatoes really fill you up.
The bread is not standard pizza bread, it’s not standard pita, it’s almost like a fry bread, but slightly more loaf ish. It’s cut and the middle cut open for filling. This is crucial to avoid the typical “blowing your back out” which is common in armature burger eating and “blowing your bottom out” when overloading typical hotdog buns. It’s moist, sturdy, yeasty. It stands up to all that oil from the fried inners.
The hot dog is fried to a level just before ripper. 2 are put on the bottom with mustard, fried onions, peppers, then fried potatoes equivalent to half a large russet then ketchup. It’s very filling, even the single. It holds up to the what feels like 1 pound mobile feast.
I honestly thought the potatoes would have some seasoning on them. They are kind of bland. You have to get the peppers and I would have liked some sautee’d onions and not fried for more crunch.
I didn’t get to try the pizza’s but can say the cold subs were blah and the only hot sub that caught my eye was the sausage parm which instantly reminded me of a traditional ragu and I liked it more than most chicken parms.
Apparently their version of “cali” is lettuce, tomato, raw onions, mayo and ketchup. The tomato and ketchup combo is really more popular in Utah, but your probably not going to sell any Utah Steak’s or Utah Burgers. Weird how they did diced sautéed onions in my burger, but not my Italian double or single dog.
It’s pretty hard to specialize in this Italian dog, cheese steaks, burgers, pizza’s, cold and hot subs. Stick to a few and you’ll be around another 60 years, otherwise no one will order the cold subs which was apparent in talking with locals. They only get a handful of items, ever.
If I’m ever in Newark again I’m coming back. IF. IF you are ever in Newark you too should stop by.
Great food, takes a while i would suggest to call ahead . Also be detailed when asking for specifics, but overall nice place great veggie option with the potato sandwich
Don’t miss this place. Double sausage with cheese mustard and ketchup is always on point. It’s huge. Super Cheesesteaks are the shhhhh!
The "fries" are literally potatoes. They just call them "fries." The "fries" are unseasoned.
They write your phone number and address and sometimes name on the pizza boxes - you'll have to take a pen to each box to protect your information. They don't.
One of the delivery guys, a young looking guy, is super nice [smiles a lot] and is prompt. Another delivery guy, an older man, is impolite and delivered a cold pizza to me.
The food is absolutely exceptional and leaves a unique taste in your mouth. Definitely one of the best pizza places in New Jersey.
Not the most friendliest people but the food is really good. I think their Italian hero has to be one of the best I had. I dunno maybe he just had a bad day!
A shout out to the guy behind the counter who went that "extra mile" to help me with my Brother while enjoying our Hot Dog
sandwiches. Thank you! 🥰 …
Best Italian pizza left in Newark and also the best Italian hot dog in jersey please conduct yourself like a gentleman no foolishness aloud
Italian hot dogs. Excellent pizza as well. Rest of the country is missing out on the best fast food in the country. Can't wait to get back to jersey.
Ordered here for the first time last night. The cheese pie and bacon cheeseburger were awesome. We are already planning to order again later this week 😂 …
What's not to love about an Italian hitdog
Only drawback is police go back and forth like a tennis match on Bloomfield Avenue. If u make it..I promise it'll be worth it! Italian hot dod Cheese burger combo, onions, peppers, and potatoes!!! Gangsta.
I have been patronizing Dickie Dee's Pizza since I was in fifth grade at Abington Ave School on North 6th Street, Newark. I turned 50 yrs old in June 2018 and I continue to eat there. I. Currently live in Pennsylvania and visit Newark 2 times per week and I make it my business to stop at Dickie Dee's and eat lunch. Dickie Dee's is a AWESOME Resteraunt!!!!
I went to Newark to buy something, we stopped in for a couple of the best Italian hotdogs ive had anywhere outside of Italy! Highly recommended and great service. JILL STARR AND JEREMY PAXMAN
Best Italian hot dog in NJ. I've been going there all my life!!
GREAT Place TO eat, I SHOULD KNOW, I HAVE WORKED THERE SINCE I WAS 12 YEARS OLD.
RICKY DEE HAS KEPT THE TRADITION GOING.
THE STAFF IS VERY GOOD AND THE NIGHT MANAGER RUNS THE STORE AS IF IT WAS RICKY BEING THERE.
GARY.PANNULLO

The service is Great I actually went there today for a super cheese steak potato in sausage sandwich with extra onions in sauce... The senior man that was at the The council was so nice he showed his all the pictures he said town Terrence Howard had just been at the restaurant 2 weeks prior and point to a pitcher the younger cook happens it be his nephew and he cooks with the family's cook.. They both even laugh and joke with us the didn't know that I was undercover food service Blogger but they let me record them making my sandwich not such a big spot kind of reminds you of the pizza parlor in the nineties to top it all off I said to the woman then I was with The happen to be Italian Have you ever seen, Do the right thing by Spike Lee Appointed to are the pictures on the wall going all around of all a talion Irish And white men,and At the end of the world was a picture of Muhammad Ali Autographed by the man himself Next to that was a picture of Michael Jordan, Don't let it fly over your head but altogether I will be giving this spot a 7 for food 2 Service in store front originality and a 1 for The fact that they have a open view grew facing towards customers with thick plastic plexi glass So that customers case seafood while being prepared 🌭🍔🍣🥪🧀🍞🥖🥓

I been going there for years since I was a kid,, the food is great,, but some of the workers have attitude promblems!!💪 …
Went to Dickie Dees today, Saturday. I usaually go on a weekday. I Bought an Italian hot dog ,sat down &started eating and the hot dog just didn't taste the same. I take two bites and it was sort of cold and the oil soaked right through the bread was so soggy the hot dog fell right trough the bread.
What's going on, , I said to myself so I just could not eat it. I get up and show it to the Guy and he just looks at me like " oh well".
It is a shame that he couldn't even make it right &offer to make another.
Shame on you Dikkie Dees.
I never thought their weekend service & hot dogs would b so Rotten !
I grew up in that neighborhood back in the 70s and 80s....and going to DDs was a must... I loved to go to Dickie Dees after school or when mom let me have their AMAZING hot dogs for weekend dinner... As I grew up in New Jersey I moved around from town to town ... but I would always find myself back there in Newark on Bloomfield ave corner of 6th having one of their GREAT MOUTH WATERING ITALIAN HOT DOGS !!!!!.............. I've since moved out of Jersey, joined the army, had two boys, moved to Pa, then Col, and Flo, and I CAN SAY from experience DICKIE DEE'S Italian Hot Dogs ARE THE VERY BEST.. the Potatoes the Onions, Peppers mustard / ketchup AND THAT BREAD !!!!!!! OMG they need to be on the FOOD NETWORK !!!!!... for sure !!! ....Thank you Dickie Dee's for great memories and still great food !!! a fan for life
I had the double sausage. It's quite a meal and was excellent. For a sandwich like that the bread is so important and their bread is excellent. I'll be back
It was great we loved it
Had the veggie, was tasty.
Owner is an evil creep. I don't wanna hear you must have caught them on a bad day if they're mean. The owners and high end people there are disrespectful, disgusting, rude evil people. I called in for a SIMPLE pick up, just like I've done over a dozen of times. The owner himself picks up. My mother knows him personally and he spoke to her THIS WAY. I ask him for a half a sub with potatoes. In a condescending tone he says "oh, well we never put potatoes on our subs. I got so annoyed, but i kept my cool and was still nice to him. Then he asks me if I wanted cheese on it. I asked for ketchup on it instead. Then he surprises me yet AGAIN and gets even nastier. He says "Who the F**K puts ketchup on potatoes" so I asked him, "are you new here because there should always be potatoes on subs" He says "EXCUSE ME" So i asked who is this? In a criminal way he says? "You wanna know who this is, I'M THE OWNER HERE, that's who" At one point he even said, "I don't give a F**K" We're talking about a sub from DICKIE DEES, The SO CALLED 5 star food restaurant. That serves SO CALLED 1st class food. ANYONE who has had Dickie Dees for 33, 43, or 53 YEARS should know better than that. He hung up on me with a stick up his but. My mother has been going there for 20 years. WE KNOW the owner. ANYONE who has had Dickie Dees will know TWO THINGS. They make the best food, and they should NEVER treat customers that way. On a good day or a bad day, you don't treat people that way. No excuses. Dude is lucky I'm a Christian. I spoke to him like a SAINT on the phone. I was kind to him, despite his evilness. He spoke to me like he comes from the street. I was born and raised in Newark and I STILL live in Newark, and I'm proud of it. I've NEVER been spoken to like that in Dickie Dees. Forget Dickie Dees. I will never go there again. The owner talks to people like if he is a king or something. Like he has that right to treat people like dirt. Nobody has that right. It's a BUSINESS, not a prison. I don't care how much you like their food, nobody should make excuses for them. Wrong is wrong. Don't waste your loyalty on men like that just because they make good food. The food may be good, but for THAT attitude and behavior, forget the food. They can keep it.
I have been coming here for years! There is only ONE please that can make true authentic Italian hotdogs!
You can NEVER Go wrong when you eat at Dickie Dee's!! Nostalgic Legendary Phenomenal!!!
I hadn't been to Dickie Dee's in years. When I went this time, the owners were different but the food was just as great! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!
Yummy sandwiches and hot dogs
Been coming here for 50 years. Still great.
Has not changed a bit. !!!!
Best Italian hot dog I've had
I have been going to Dickie Dee's since I was a kid in the early 80's, moved to Pa over 25 yrs ago and every time I drive through Jersey I have to stop in and get my double with evrything, simply the best!
Literally saw the reviews and decided to stop in for a slice. It was fantastic...service was quick and fairly busy. Very cleanly place, will be returning!!!
It was great they are very fast with your order even when they get a little busy
This place is always good, ever since I was a kid. Not much has changed, but when you have been opened for about 40yrs plus. Why would you need to change. This place is a landmark of Newark Nj.
Average. Not bad pizza or Italian Hot dogs, but not GREAT either.
OMG my parents told me about this place they used to come here as kids. It was unbelievably delicious, portions were huge-come with cash, no cards. Highly recommended!
Food quality is great and delicious. Italian hot dogs and pizza are equally good. Good for take out, and prices are right.
Best hotdogs in the state. It's a historic place and I can't recommend it enough. Awesome pizza while they're at it.
Love this place. Been coming here since I was a kid. Pizza is great. Hotdogs are phenomenal!
I've known Dickie Dee's since the late 60s! Love their mannerism & tasty foods! Edna sends a Big Hug to the eldest & to the youngest!
Best pizza around in the Italian hot dogs and the Italian sausage or could die for best or wat
Best everything!!! They treat you like family minute u walk through the door
I had the double dog, it was Great, the staff is Great as well. If you are near by, you must stop in. You will not regret, Great place to eat for the money.
Love the Italian hotdog
I love this place been eating there for years them Italian hotdogs and sausage great
I've been coming here for a while. My kids love their pizza. Friendly staff!
Nothing else satisfies the crave for Italian hotdogs better than this place. Not the best place to dine in through, consider it a take out spot.
Best Italian hot dogs! We’ve been coming for over 15 years and make a special trip about 4 times a year.
Great food. Great service. Very old-school place to get a Great Italian Dog or Burger. Pizza too.

Food is great. Tastes just like I remembered from when I was a kid. Glad I am able to share it with my family.
Elderly employee was rude when I change my order to takeout . The cook said "dont pay him any attention".
Don't know if I will go back.
This is the place to go for genuine Italian hot dogs or sausage. Been in business since the 50's
One of a kind. Double dog with potatoes and peppers. Follow up with a visit to Calandra's. Worry about your cholesterol another day.
Food is pretty good minus the cheese steaks maybe get a real philly chef for lessons
