Always a pleasure visiting Paulie and having some of his delicious food. The Italian Beef is my go to and I highly recommend it. Super flavorful and delicious. Everything is fresh and made to order so you will have to wait. I always enjoy talking to Paulie, he is very nice and accommodating! It is about a 45 minute drive for me but always worth it.
Best Italian beef and Chicago dogs around. Gets hot sitting out there during the summer. Paulie is a great guy and his food is homemade and fresh.
This is the best place to get a Chicago style dog outside of Chicago!!! F-ing delicious!! Spicy polish sausage is also really good!!
This is a great place for Chicago styled Hot Dogs. The owner is amazing and so is his help. I stop there even when I'm not hungry. Always a pleasure!!!
A friend once told me you can get the best food outside a gas station, and this time he was right! After 4 years we finally managed to visit Paulie's while he was open.
Don't let the appearance fool you. Tucked into the corner of a gas station parking lot. Chicago Paulie's is a Tampa staple. Only open for lunch Mon-Sat from 11-3.
The menu is hot dogs, hamburgers and fries. It's simple, uncomplicated and super tasty.
After placing our orders, our food showed up in under 10 minutes. Already dripping in relish, mustard and ketchup (no onions for me) I took a sample bite of the puppy seed bun. Those buns, tho. Fluffy, fresh and tastes so yummy!! The dog was just as fresh and so well cooked. It was juicy and tasty, perfectly cooked. The fries were hot and delicately seasoned.
We ordered a fresh lemonade and like everything else, it was super fresh.
Looking for a super yummy lunch? Head over and grab a stool or under the umbrella and just enjoy your lunch.
One of the best Italian beef sandwiches and authentic Chicago dogs! Come early or things will sell out quickly!
Legit Chicago style hot dog and Italian beef. The owner and woman cashing out, super friendly. It's just a window, similar to a food truck. There's only two bar stools outside, which I'm totally fine with because I'm there for the food. High traffic area so it's a little hard to find parking but totally worth it if you can wait for somebody pull out of one of the parking spots.
Best dogs and Italian beefs in Tampa. Might even beat most places in Chicago. Chicago Pauline’s uses only premium ingredients and the service is phenomenal. Never had a bad experience. Been a loyal customer for 10 years. Thank you for keeping it delicious.
Amazing food and a super-friendly staff. Wednesday's special is Free Fries with purchase, so highly recommend going on that day of the week. Really good size and flavor to Hot Dog as well.

This little roadside kitchen packs in some serious flavor. Don't come here thinking your going to get some imitation Chicago eats, this is the REAL DEAL. The owner is a very nice, down the earth guy, who is very passionate about his hometown recipes. We had the Chicago Dog, the Italian sausage, and the Italian Beef Sandwich with the dip before heading to the baseball game. All were top notch and would recommend to anyone. The only item that was par were the french fries, so ditch the sides and order extra hot dogs at this awesome local place!
