Honestly, I still prefer Nathan's. The hot dogs are decent, and there's a good selection of…read moretoppings, but a truly good hot dog shouldn't need much added to it. They were out of fries when we visited, so we had chips instead. I don't fault them for running out of fries, but chips felt like a weak substitute. I ordered the Chicago dog, and while it was good, it wasn't anything memorable or something I'd go out of my way for. The inside is small, with an 80s vibe. There is no indoor seating and the outdoor seating is limited. That said, the service was solid. The employees were friendly and clearly hardworking. It was a very busy day with a long line, and it was handled efficiently. I'm not writing this place off entirely. It's not bad, just not especially impressive for what it is.

I enjoyed eating here. Ordering from the kiosk for smaller orders is practical. It is busy! And a…read morenew York beach crowd for sure. The kiosk has a smaller menu, so next time when I have time to wait in line, I will have to try their bigger bites, like a burger!!

It's the Best! This location I mean. Even when I go to other locations for some reason, their hot…read moredogs always taste better here. Aaand no other Location has frog legs! Sooooo we make this trek all the time mainly for the frog legs but always get hot dogs also. Also they have a sweet older gentleman that is like a maitre D & personal waiter. I'm so mad I did not get his name. He was awesome. When we walked in, he asked us if we wanted a table he walked us to the table, pulled the chairs out. He came back and checked on us. Even noticed that I got a shake & immediately came back with a spoon for me. BTW that Butterscotch Praline Shake was top notch! Get it! And his awesome service wasn't just for us. He did this for everyone. I am sure there is no way you can get this kind of service in the summertime because you can barely move in there. So I don't wanna let the secret out. But I hate when people gatekeep, So if you wanna try this location of Nathan's come in the wintertime. Parking right out front! For my family coming from Suffolk County to Brooklyn it's worth the trip! It's only 44 miles away but NY traffic it took us 1 hr 45 minutes to get back home. Ridiculous, but worth it!

I could not quite place the taste; but it was cold out of the fridge & very nice to complete my 1st experience at this classic Clifton cuisine stop. Service was quick & pleasant. Did I mention the bill was $25. We left $35 because we felt like it. Staff was appreciative. The hot dog itself - unique fried dog - as for flavor... it was different or "plain" if that makes sense; but not bad. Good for sure. It was a different dog than I used to get at Callahan's or Hiram's in Fort Lee years ago ... and I still think one of the best hot dogs is Dover Grille or (if you can believe it) Hoover's bar on Rt. 53 in Morris Plains. Rutt's get 4 stars for classic feel, service with a smile & overall experience.

While food took awhile, we were no in a rush and the employees were friendly. The crif burger and New Yorker were too basic for me, but I enjoyed the elote topping for the elote dog. The tots were a nice side to pair with your meal. There's nothing like some hot dogs and burgers before/after drinking, so it's a smart pairing being next to all the bars. Would I come here solely for the hot dogs and burgers? Probably not. But it works great together with PDT.

The crif is pork and beef, New Yorker (all beef) and veggie option. I did a New Yorker (all beef) $4.75 with sauerkraut ($0.75) and the Spicy Redneck which featured a bacon wrapped crif dog with chili, coleslaw and picked jalapeños. Both satisfied the hot dog craving I had. There are also tater tots and burgers available. The bread was a bit stale, hence the 3 stars and the bun split on my New Yorker making it messy to eat. The woman behind the counter was friendly and suggested I try the dog featured this month- featuring a fried pickle or the Tsunami which has teriyaki sauce and pineapples.

Long ago, when I was a fresh-faced ad agency intern, I spent a summer in a dorm room at NYU. With…read moreno interest in cooking, I remember becoming a semi-regular at the Gray's Papaya located at 6th Ave and 8th St and always ordering the Recession Special: two dogs loaded with onions and a papaya drink. It wasn't the best quality frankfurter, but somehow it worked with my indiscriminate palette. Flash forward a century or so, and this is the only Gray's Papaya left in the city. Since I'm a survivor, I thought it only appropriate to take Jamie to the original flagship location and order what else but the Recession Special. Sure enough, they still offer it for $7.50. It was $1.95 when I was a child, but it's still a good deal consisting of 2 Hot Dogs (Photo 10) and a Medium Papaya Drink (Photo 9). The franks were the same as I recall, nothing special but if you add onions and pay an extra 75 cents for the chili, it just works. The papaya drink is not a fruit juice but a puree mixed with sugar and milk. It actually complements the dog in a guilty pleasure kind of way. There was a line but it moved fast. Plenty of room at the red mini-counter, so I was able to relive my youthful dining dalliance with little effort.

OhK-Dog on Orchard Street is a fun & flavorful twist on the classic corn dog. These Korean rice…read moredogs are made with rice flour instead of cornmeal, giving them a super crispy texture & a unique flavor that sets them apart. I went for one filled with gooey mozzarella--so satisfying--and loved how it still kept the nostalgic corn dog look. There are over a dozen creative configurations, including versions with potato cubes or rice cakes, each with its own quirky appeal. Once you choose your dog, there are 2 more steps: pick a dry topping (I chose cinnamon sugar, which added a sweet-savory contrast) & finish it off with sauces from a lineup that includes ketchup, mustard, gochu hot sauce, and sweet chili. My only wish is that there was actual seating (it's more of a grab-and-go spot) & the wall being wide open made it feel a bit drafty. Still, the food is worth it. Definitely a fun East Village stop if you're craving something indulgent & out of the ordinary.
