Northlake, IL 60164

Meet us where classic diner grub is fresh and made-to-order


A classic diner in Northlake that makes you feel like you’re family! The Winking Dog has been serving up hot dogs and hand-carved gyros since 1958 in an atmosphere designed to make you feel at home.

Everything here is made-to-order and cooked fresh. The homemade soups are made from scratch.

The Winking Dog says the hand-carved gyros are the best around and you’ll get no argument from us!

We also love the classic corned beef on rye with muscles and a pickle as well as the Barbeque Chicken and Ribs, a combo plate with a half chicken and half slab of ribs with fries, coleslaw, and garlic.
