About This Spot

Stepping into Double Deez Chicago Style Restaurant feels like crossing the threshold into a genuine slice of the Midwest, nestled right on Gulf Drive. The pace is easygoing but lively, where familiar faces nod a quiet hello and the hum of conversation blends seamlessly with a steady stream of classic country tunes. It’s the kind of place that invites you to slow down, take a breath, and savor something real—not just in the food, but in the atmosphere itself.

Here, the spirit of Chicago is palpable—in the poppy seed buns carefully buttered for just the right crunch, in the warm, layered flavors of the Italian beef that beckon with every bite, and in the hot dogs dressed with all the traditional telltale toppings. The menu isn’t just about satisfying hunger; it’s a small celebration of Midwestern comfort, every detail handled with affection and a sense of home.

Double Deez isn’t just a stop for a meal—it’s a place where those who long for familiar tastes find a meaningful connection to a city miles away, and visitors can experience the straightforward joy of honest, well-made food. The heartfelt welcome from the couple who run the spot adds a human warmth that’s just as memorable as the dishes themselves. Here, the atmosphere is unpretentious but rich with community, where authentic flavor meets easy smiles and the kind of laid-back comfort that feels like a friendly embrace.

I have been in Florida for 20+ years and haven't found good Chicago style thin crust. Growing up just North of Chicago in Wisconsin Ive been searching for a Chicago style thin crust pizza. The pizza was excellent and I would put in same category as Wells Brothers from back home. The customer service was excellent as well. The only reason they got a 4 star for Atmosphere is all the Chicago Bear stuff. Lol Definitely will be back!

I am a native Chicagoian and I have lived in Sarasota/Bradenton for over 15 years. This is the first Chicago style pizza I've had here that is actually Chicago style. Crust is thin and crisp, sausage is real Italian sausage and they've even used dried Italian spices on top. So happy to have found a real Chicago style pizza place in Sarasota/Bradenton!

We stopped in here because my fiance is from IL and loves Chicago food. It did not disappoint! He loved every bit - great ingredients, done authentically, and great atmosphere with great people. We tried the Chicago dog, the Italian beef, and the tavern pizza which were all phenomenal. We will def be back!

A must-stop gem in Anna Maria! Double Deez Hot Dog is an absolute treasure. Run by the sweetest couple, this place serves up incredible hot dogs and burgers that are full of flavor and made with love. The vibe is unbeatable—great country music playing in the background and a laid-back, welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re just passing through or spending time in Anna Maria, you have to stop here. Highly recommended!

I grew up in Chicago. This place is 100% legit. Poppy seed buns, styrofoam cups with the weird patterns, the crinkle cut fries…All it’s missing is pizza puffs that give you instant diarrhea. Probably for the best. Can’t wait to come back the next time I’m in town!

I love this place! Dining is limited but take out is just as divine. I have yet to be disappointed. This is my new go to burger joint. I haven’t ventured out into the pizza yet. But the dogs and burgers are muy bien! Always hot, fresh and seasoned perfectly ! Very clean atmosphere! Family business and it shows! I will Be visiting often!

Been there three times since they opened. Will definitely go back. Haven’t had Italian beef or Chicago dogs this good outside of Chicago. Tried the Italian beef with and without cheese as pictured. Both tasty. Hubby said Italian sausage is good as well. Friendly family!

If you like an authentic Chicago dog this is your spot. Can’t beat the price (especially on the island). The the food is good and greasy the way you want it. The burger is similar to one from a bowling alley. The staff was wonderful. Highly recommend.
