I hate bacon.... I get that S@#t w/ onions.
I can't believe I eat this shit somtimes...
I think it is made out of a pigs ass or something. I try not to think 2 hard on that.
But you so hit the spot, at like 3:36 am.

I could have sworn I heard a choir of angels when I finally saw nirvana, aka the bacon dog cart. I had heard wonderful, beautiful things about this joyful experience previously unknown to me and lo, the truth was spoken.
It's a hot dog. Wrapped in bacon. With grilled onions (and jalapenos if you so choose). Holy shit. :) :) :)

I'm all about the bacon dog cart, I don't give a fuck. It just sucks that it always catches me in a weak moment, like when I'm coming down, or drunk and crying, and the only thing that can make me feel better is a bacon wrapped hot dog.
These hot dogs bring people together. One late night I was enjoying one at the stud, while a guy on tweak proceeded to tell me his life story and sexual history...

Holler to the vegetariyelpers:
Well this one time I was super hungry and actually sober coming out of a bar on Mission st. And there was the Bacon Dog Cart.
Seeing as I don't actually eat meat, I opted for the peppers and onions on a bun. Because really, the smell will seduce you.
The nice man charged me one dollar for my meal and it was still worth So Much More.

Seriously people try eating this when you are sober then write a review. I am fat so I don't mind putting fatty bacon and random crap in my body 24-7. But after clubbing at the piece of crap temple the bacon dog man was standing down wind to the noobs coming out of the club. So obviously all the drunk chicks and fattys like me are running to the dog man. But since I am an expensive date at the bar I was still sober. The hot dog is an oscar mayer weiner. Freakin gross. I'd rather eat a real dog than an oscar mayer. Dog has real flesh. The bun was cold and crappy. The onions were good and the bacon was so so. I don't get why this thing is so good. But it must be good when you are so jacked up you can't smell or taste anything. You probably need to be in the state of can't walk, throwing up next the the bacon dog cart, and wake up the next morning wondering why there is a bacon dog cart cook in your bed. If you can match these requirements 5 stars!

2:15 AM guilty yet shameless drunken pleasure used to equal giant quesadilla from Cancun.
giant quesadilla from Cancun now Trumped by bacon dog cart.
although i want to, i can't give it 5 stars because i only eat these when i'm intoxicated. my judgment is questionable.

8:45 PM *Heading out to the Mission* "I really am trying to be better about the stuff I put in my body."
1:00 AM and numerous beers and vodka concoctions later. "There's that Bacon Dog Syren calling me to the rocky shores of processed meats and condiments. Yes I want it loaded mayonnaise, onions, ketchup, and mustard. And no I don't care that the bun is sitting on raw bacon as well as the dog. Oh my dear sweet lord this is the best bacon dog I've had. Quit judging me, I can lick the oil and grease off my palms if I want to."
4:06 AM. Wife calling out from the bedroom, "You okay?" Me. "I have bacon dog vomit shooting out my nose. It still smells and tastes like bacon dog?? How is that possible????"
4:34 AM. Wife, "Are you still throwing up?" Me, "No. No, it's moved on to diarrhea."
9:10 AM. "Ugh, it feels like I was held down while a group of marines repeatedly hit me in the abdomen with socks holding bars of soap. Oh and hey more diarrhea."
Three times I've had Bacon Dogs and two times I've had gastrointestinal problems. Never ever again....

WOW crack on a bun! The aroma was calling for me, from inside Holy Cow.. right when I was leaving Holy Cow.... i smelled the bacon, it was calling my name! It was screaming BRIAN! BRIAN! EAT ME!... i was drunk and hungry.. and wow let me tell you.. IT HIT THE SPOT! RIGHT ON! BULLS EYE! CHA CHING!
The Bacon wrapped around the Sausage, gives it such great flavor, i believe the grilled onions are grilled with the bacon fat!.. i hope so, because that would be the best thing ever! Top the Dog with some mayo, ketchup and mustard.. you have yourself a Grade AA hot dog!
The Bacon Dog was so good that i stuffed it down to fast down my throat that i coughed it back up and into my friends face! SORRY ALAINA! hahaha... This hot dog will satisfy any ones drunken hunger!

Sweet sweet smell of animal on animal... Always pops up when I need it, walking out of some place late at night.
The aroma is unmistakeable. If you haven't tried it, get 3 just for yourself and save a trip.

I used to think that these would be disgustiiiiing, but one day my boyfriend made me try a bite. DELICIOUS!
It's 3:40AM and I can't sleep because I have wicked insomnia and I have a meeting in less than 5 hours so I thought I would write a review of the Bacon Dog Cart in SoMA instead of take another Tylenol PM.
One time my BFF Jesse and I were at some crappy club and the Bacon Dog Cart was outside. Jesse is a smoker so we went out to smoke and I bought her a bacon wrapped hot dog. Then some asshole tried to hit on her by saying really inappropriate things so she took the bacon wrapped hot dog and threw it in his face.
Just a note: the dude did not like the fact that Jesse declined his advances (politely, mind you), and started to talk major shit. It is safe to assume that bitches from the bay area don't roll that way, so if you talk shit to us we will pour beer on you or throw a bacon wrapped hot dog in your face. Chivalry is dead.
One star deducted because oh my God don't waste bacon wrapped hot dogs they are delicious!

I finally met you last night.
It was enchanting.
A moment that will remain in my fuzzy memory forever.
1 bacon-wrapped Hot Dog, please?
Thank You.
Nom Nom Nom Nom...
(20 minutes later)
2 more bacon-wrapped Hot Dogs, on the double! Please?
Thank You.
(10 feet away from BDC)
Nom Nom Nom Nom Belch! Nom Nom Nom Nom...
I probably could have eaten 2 more, except I was out of $$$.
I hope we meet again, sooner rather than later.

Shotay and I leave Holy Cow and we are so happy to leave cuz that place sucks cow nuts. We cross the street and I am lookin around to figure out if we are goin the right direction towards our car. While we are in the middle of the intersection I spy w/ my big eyes the infamous BACON DOG CART....tun tun tun.... This is the lil cart that has been evading me since I heard about it a while ago and it is finally in my sights. We quickly turn a 180 and head straight to the hombres tending the pig wrapped dogs. We are in utter delight. We order just one as we don't wanna become like crack fiends lookin for another fix. We look in awe w/ drool dripping...we take turns consuming the protein and carb crack...and in an instant its gone. We leave wanting more. But we know we should leave it be....

San Francisco may not have a fleet of bacon-dog vendors roaming the streets as does Hollywood, but we do have a lone soldier. Adam Gonzales-Hernandez, better known as the Bacon-Dog Cart by his fans at yelp-- where he's listed as the fifth-best restaurant in SF -- pops up in the right place at the right time (usually around Mission and 16th from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m.). He can also be found later in the evening under the freeway by The Endup.
you gave me food when I was drunk and that makes you special bc unlike some of other joints I've had been to when I've been in that state of hunger due to alcohol destroying my healthy fitness, you've never given me a stomach ache. or diarherria.

Bacon Dog Cart, patron saint of drunk people in SF. How many hangovers or DUIs have you prevented? I'll never know.
My first encounter with the BDC was stumbling out of 1984 at Cat Club. After 3 vodka sodas, I was pretty peckish. The air was filled with something wonderful. My bloodhound nose followed the scent, which led me to this holy mirage.
Disgusting, yet delicious. Like the sleazy dude you don't want to admit you have a crush on.

I love you bacon dog cart.
I was on my way to the crepe place with all the couches next to Butter. I never made it. Bacon dog cart stopped me dead in my tracks. It was like finding a twenty dollar bill on the sidewalk. Pure, unadulterated, unexpected joy.
I don't remember very much about the dog a companion bought for me. I blame that on the wonderful staff around the corner at WISH.
There was mayo on it.
And other condiments.
Maybe some veggies.
I do remember the crispy bacon wrapped around the hot dog.
I remember how I didn't spill on myself. The dog was not overflowing with crap.
Each bite was full of bacony goodness. The bacon did not unravel and all end up in one bite.
I might not have been able to see straight, but this dog really hit the spot...that much was clear.

Whatever you do, DO NOT TRY TO EAT TWO. I had a massive tummy ache after consuming 1 and a half.
But the dog tasted FANTASTIC at the time.... the second one was definitely a struggle, and didn't taste quite as good, and this was probably 30 minutes after eating the first.
Wish the link was bigger, but where it lacked in girth and plumpness, it over-compensated in BACON, a warm greasy bun, and jalapenos.
I would rather not know the caloric content of my conveniently located midnight snack last night. I think Mickey D's may have actually been a more modest and healthy choice.

We didn't have dinner and decided to hit up the Bacon Dog Cart for supper! It was sooooooooooooo good. I guess they have franchaise or branches now since there are at least two in the Folsom area and another on Valencia/Mission and 16th area.
The sausage with ketchup and onions were mmm mmm mmm....

It seems wrong to lump all the bacon-dog carts into one single review.
Oh well, the concept as a whole gets four stars. They're a great alternative to late-night Al Pastor.
Actually, I think it would be interesting if one of these rolled up in front of Delfina Pizzeria. All those people waiting an hour to get in would probably just cave and buy a dog. Come to think of it, since Delfina Pizzeria actually serves you wine or beer while you wait outside, you could be kickin' it on the sidewalk with a dog and a Peroni. Not bad.
Jalapenos, grilled onions, mustard. Boom.
One for me, and one for that homeless dude...

Stumbling out of the Cat Club, my inhibitions fuzzy from a few strong libations, glistening with sweat after hours of dancing pressed against a mass of writhing bodies, I began to feel a hunger deep in my loins for a thick, hot piece of meat against my moistened lips. I needed it badly, I needed it RIGHT NOW.
Oh, Bacon Dog Cart, you know how to do me right. A freshly grilled bacon dog with grilled onions and jalapenos really made my night.

These carts have been sprouting everywhere recently. My first experience of this was in Hollywood in LA and then in SF: Mission, Folsom and Howard.
I've had it sober and drunk but it is always satisfying when you are hungry and could just follow your nose to a good heart attack in a bun.

You and your tempting smell lingers everytime I leave the Cat Club. Greasy street food at its best. Its a dangerous thing to have when you attempt to get home and your stomach starts rumbling and you drive a little faster thinking whether that tasty hot dog/bacon goodness will be worth your next 10 minutes driving home and 5 minutes on the can.

These things are fantastic...but heed the advice of the previous reviewer...do NOT try to eat two. I got a big belly...I can eat plenty of food. I finished one and I guess it hadn't reached the bottom of my belly yet, so my friend kindly left her house to get me another one (I'm lucky) BAM. Nausea ensues. I don't blame the cart people, though. Nope, no one but gluttenous me to blame here.

If this is the same guy around corner from 1015 Folsom you are a saint. The first bite I took I felt like I was in heaven (with a clogged artery but who cares.. we only live once). It was so so freaking good. I was not drunk just wanted some food in my tummy. I hope I won't be going back to 1015 anytime soon but I definitely will get another hot dog the next time I come back.
OMG!! OMG!! It finally happened! To ME!
...no, sorry, I didn't get laid...
I GOT A BACON WRAPPED HOTDOG. Which is virtually the same thing as getting laid. I had a cigarrette afterwards, fo sho'.
**Be sure to have exact $3, cuz these guys can't exactly run to the bank at 12am to break a $50, ya know?**

Screw mission bacon dog cart. The original and still the best is on FOLSOM STREET down the street from KAT CLUB AND ICON LOUNGE
They are regularly in front of 1125 folsom from 10pm ish to 3 or 4 am.
3 bucks for a yummy bacon dog with grilled onions and jalapenos!
"do you have a name? nombre?"
"Si. Hot Dog"
"Folsom Street Hot Dog?"
"Si"
UPDATE:
me: you need a tip jar!
bacon dog guy: [blank stare]
me: you will see when you get a tip jar how happy you will be!

i'm only giving it 4 stars because of how unhealthy it is. that, and you could eat it in a couple of bites!
Hell yes!! Nothing like a juicy, fattening hot dog after hours of dancing in high heels. They could be a little bigger, though.
I could happily devour the bacon dog cart right now.
Really delicious hot dog with Bacon. Bacon + Hot Dog. Need I say more? The women vendor told me that she just raised the price to $4/Hot Dog as of Thursday. Don't know if that's true, still great Hot Dogs with BACON! and all the fix-ins.
