Josh Harris, co-founder of Trick Dog, has opened Quik Dog in January 2026 at 1023 3rd Street in Mission Bay — a 4,100-square-foot sports bar and hot dog concept built to serve event crowds near Oracle Park and Chase Center.
Quik Dog opened in January 2026 at 1023 3rd Street in San Francisco's Mission Bay — the first standalone restaurant from Josh Harris, co-founder of the Mission cocktail bar Trick Dog. The 4,100-square-foot space, per The SF Standard, occupies a street-level suite in Mission Rock's "the Canyon" building, with Oracle Park across the street and Chase Center a short walk away.
The SF Standard described the concept as "a sports bar that has that dog in it" — the spinoff of what it called "the most award-winning bar in the Mission." What began as a pandemic-era hot dog window Harris ran out of Trick Dog in 2020 has scaled into a full room: indoor booths, a sequestered back bar, and an outdoor terrace. The Standard noted: "It's a sports bar that welcomes kids" — designed to absorb surges from game-day crowds and third-grade field trips alike.
Main dishes — all seven served on seeded hot dog buns, including the cheeseburgers — are priced at $12 (Mission Dog) and $14 (Smashburger). The cocktail list runs $14 a drink, roughly $4 cheaper than Trick Dog's $18 menu, and leans toward efficiency: batched and carbonated cocktails, an espresso martini on draft via a nitro system. Harris told the Standard the butterflied dogs — sliced lengthwise for more surface area — owe something to how his father grilled them. "That adds more structure and makes them more enjoyable to eat," he said.
California Secretary of State records show Quik Dog LLC was incorporated in February 2023, giving Harris more than two years of runway before the room opened. San Francisco business registration data lists the DBA as active at 1023 3rd Street, Suite E, with a City registration date of April 23, 2025. What Now San Francisco and the SF Chronicle have reported that a Type 48 (on-sale general) liquor license application has been filed; California ABC public records do not currently reflect an active license at the address.
Mission Rock — co-developed by the San Francisco Giants and Tishman Speyer — is built around foot traffic generated by two of the city's largest event venues. Quik Dog's corridor neighbors include the Che Fico offshoot Via Aurelia and Fieldwork Brewing's beer garden, all betting on the same arena-adjacent logic. The back bar is sequestered from the main dining room so that a thin crowd on a game-off night doesn't hollow out the feel of the room — a design choice that signals Harris is planning for the Tuesdays in February, not just the playoff runs.
