**TL;DR:** Dog Haus has debuted 25 new menu items, its biggest menu evolution in 15 years, spanning various categories including Smashburgers, Dogs & Sausages, and Grilled Chicken sandwiches.

## Story

The new lineup spans every category, from Smashburgers and signature Dogs & Sausages served on grilled King’s Hawaiian rolls and buns to Crispy and Grilled Chicken sandwiches, crave-worthy Shareables, and Bad-Ass Breakfast Burritos — all part of Dog Haus’ menu. One of the additions is a dedicated Grilled Chicken category led by the Cali Chick, a grilled chicken sandwich. Made with an all-natural, humanely raised grilled chicken breast and topped with white American cheese, avocado, tomato, wild arugula and spicy basil aioli on a grilled Big Marty's sesame seed bun.

The Santa Fe joins the Nashville Hot, Western and Sweet Chick to round out the selection, with distinct flavor profiles from Nashville heat and Southwest spice to smoky barbecue and sweet-and-spicy.

“Chicken has become so popular with our guests that adding grilled chicken options was an easy decision,” said Garen Khodaverdian, COO. “We’re continuing to build on the foundation our founders established by expanding the menu with more choices, more flavors and the quality ingredients our guests have come to expect from Dog Haus.”

The menu adds Hogfather to the Dogs & Sausage category and Bacon Onion Jam to the Smashburgers category, along with new shareables such as Pretzel Bites, Garlic Cotija Fries and Tot-Chos.

In addition to the existing selection of craft draft beer and wine, plus cocktails where available, the beverage program also includes new soft drink options from Dr Pepper, 7Up, Sunkist® Orange and Hawaiian Punch®, along with craft beverages from Tractor Beverage Co. and regional soda favorites available in bottles and fountains in select markets — plus exclusive restaurant distribution of Dr Pepper Cherry.

The menu builds on Dog Haus’ longstanding commitment to ingredients and culinary craftsmanship. Every beef burger and proprietary all-beef hot dog is made with 100% Black Angus beef from Creekstone Farms, while the brand’s sausage and chicken feature all-natural, humanely raised proteins with no added hormones or antibiotics, complemented by signature breads, house-made sauces, and chef-inspired toppings.
