The Dawg House
2380 Peachtree Industrial Blvd, Buford
Family-owned hot dog place, best described as American street food: all-beef hot dogs, Angus smash burgers, and a made-to-order counter menu that also runs cheesesteaks, wings, and tacos. A cheap night-out meal; hours vary by day and the restaurant publishes them on its own site, so confirm before you go.
