    Steve's Hot Dogs

    Steve's Hot Dogs and Burgers started as a hot dog cart in 2008. Steve Ewing, frontman for the band The Urge, was inspired to create a place that served creative, fun food that could be enjoyed before and after live music shows in St. Louis. Soon, St. Louis began to realize that Steve's culinary creativity was something worth coming out for all on its own, and the accolades soon followed. Stop by our shop in Tower Grove for a gourmet hot dog, burger or our famous mac and cheese bowls - and grab a beer next door at Tick Tock Tavern while you're here. Check our event calendar for neighborhood events and live music. Ask us about our event catering. We cater parties. corporate events, fundraisers and more. Ask about individually wrapped lunches, hot dog bars, burger bars, nacho bars and more.
