I love trying restaurants that I haven't been to, providing they have something that I will want to eat on their menu. I recently heard that a place called Bay Street Dawgs, located on Bay Street in Daytona Beach, had vegan dogs (they are not a vegan restaurant, but offer them). I was in! I wanted to go there to try them, and last night we did. 

Bay Street Dawgs is a small restaurant, located just off of Beach Street on Bay Street. The restaurant is cute, has a great little outdoor dining area out back, great customer service, and it was really clean. I have an issue with dirty restaurants (I hate it when restaurants are dirty), and this place stood out for how clean it was, which was great!

My husband and I both ordered one of their vegan dogs, and my husband ordered the portobello burger. We also ordered some onion petals and fries. We took a seat in the outdoor patio dining area. Even though it was hot outside, we were comfortable sitting there. The area is small, but nicely done, with fans and shades. Within minutes, our food was brought out and we dug in.

We both really liked the vegan dogs. They have a unique bun that was good. We also liked the portobello burger and fries. The onion petals were great, like little onion rings. I'm a veggie dog fan, so when I find a restaurant that likes them I give it a try. I feel like all hot dog restaurants should also offer veggie dogs (like why not offer them?!). 

The owner came out and said he has been there for three years. He's never done any advertising, instead relying only on word-of-mouth. But it took three years for the place to reach my ears! So I wanted to tell others about it. Bay Street Dawgs is a great little unique restaurant. The prices were not bad and the service and food was great. It was around $32 for the both of us to eat there (two vegan dogs, one portobello burger, onion petals, fries, and a coke). We will be back again!
