I just wanted to say thank you to the owner/operator of the shady dog cart that posts up near shadyside hospital. Sir if you see this I was the guy in the Grey ram wishing I could of come bought your delicious food. You saw me drooling and brought me 2 sausage sandwiches on the house as I was at the red light. I've had 10 plus surgeries and foot amputations. I can't walk very well and this man walked right up to my truck and gifted me that food. I was very hungry and am so grateful for his kind act. You my new friend are a gentleman and a solid human. My name is Keith DiMaio I live in Vandergrift pa which is an hr north of the city and I have every intention of repaying your kindness if you allow me. I'm gonna bring you some lunch this week that I smoked myself. It's wet brining now and I'll look for you Friday I hope to see you then. I'm your new ad campaign manager after that kindness you showed me.

This was the first time I stopped at the Shady Dog.I have driven past it hundreds of times but never stopped.I was served by the owner of the cart John who was super friendly and very professional.I got a dog with sauerkraut and mustard.The hotdog was great and the customer service was even better.This is definitely a place to stop if you want a hotdog.I will defiantly be back again when in the area.

Friendly guys, very good dogs at a very fair price. Beautiful setting in the parklet with benches to eat on. The Shady Dog is definitely a huge plus to the neighborhood!

Best dog in the city! I always get it John's way with jalapeños (you gotta try the BBQ sauce). Get 2.... 1 will just be a tease. Totally worth the line if you get there a little late as it does get busy towards the lunch hour. Also when he is out of dogs for the day that's it I've shown up late and boom he is packing up and hitting the road.

We really enjoyed eating the slim dogs. My husband wanted the hot sausage but they were sold out. They must be good. John the owner, is one of a kind. We will be back……
