★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Tricellceo · Jan 2026

Yeah, no. They don’t have the full L.A menu, this being a City Walk location. The prices are sky high (what you’d expect from Universal Studios) for food that was below avg at best. Hot dogs were basic, fries were shoestring (which I hate) and nothing stood out. It was basically like cashing in on a name for money. $80+ for 4 hot dogs, 4 fries and 2 drinks is just insane for the mediocre quality of food they serve. Will not return. Unfortunately.

😀We spent the day at Universal Studios and chose to have dinner at City Walk, after the park closed. City Walk is right next door to Universal Studios Hollywood and is full of little shops and restaurants, ✨The night view with all the neon signs is really beautiful. There are 2 levels at City Walk. Most of the businesses upstairs are fast food restaurants. It is set-up like a food court. Many of the restaurants have a couple of tables inside where you order. There are many more tables set-up just outside each restaurant for bigger parties or if you and your friends and family each want something different to eat and then all meet back at a table to eat together and people-watch the crowds below. 🌭Pink's Hot Dog is one of your dining choices. They are open for lunch and dinner. It will prob

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Christy E · Feb 2026

Nothing beats the original spot. This one tastes more like a fast-food chain, and the dogs were… underwhelming. Cute place, though.

A friend was surprised I’ve never had Pink’s so we ate here after seeing a movie. I had the chili cheese dog and he had the chili cheese fries. Other than the bun being ever so slightly stale (friend said they use better buns at the og location?) I thought it was great.

Atmosphere- 3 stars- This is located on the upper level of City Walk. Very small inside with few tables. More tables outside that are shared with the other fast food options. Service- not the friendliest or welcoming employees on the day we went but they did serve us in a timely manner. Food- We got a Mulholland Drive dog (bacon, chili, mushrooms and onions) and a chili cheese dog. Both were good but really messy. Need lots of napkins. Fries were good as well. I’m sure there are better Pinks locations in the area.
