    Hot Cheetos Volcano Hotdog
    Miranda M.

    My coworker and I came here for lunch one day and were excited to find there was no line for this food stall. My first Korean hot dog! We placed our orders using the kiosks outside, which were very intuitive and easy to use. We were given numbers on our receipts and waited a few minutes before our items are ready. I expected my hotdog to be much spicier as I tentatively added some spicy sauce on top which was self-serve, on the counter. I'm a little disappointed that the hot dog not only did not feel that hot temperature wise, but was not spicy at all, despite being both coated in flaming hot Cheetos and being their volcano dog. They didn't seem to be much flavor at all in the meat and I think this would've been much better with either cheese inside, or if I had added more sauce. My coworker and I split the potato rings on the skewer, which were quite tasty. She opted for some sugar to be sprinkled on top, but I wasn't a huge fan of that. I do think that the slices of potatoes were great and salty either way. I tried a bite of my coworker's hot dog (mainly the outside) and actually enjoyed the unique texture and chew the potatoes in the coating gave it. If you really like hotdogs, you'll probably like this place. I'm pickier with mine and really need them to have flavor itself to b me worthwhile. A cool idea, easy ordering and they are instagram worthy.

    Contactless ordering with kiosk outside. Wait time it about 10 mins depending how busy it is. There is no seat but they have standing tables by the wall. This is a great place to grab a quick snack to go. I like Korean hotdog and this place does not disappoint. Some of the favorites are potato and ramen hotdog with ketchup and honey mustard. The condiments are self served so you can dress your hotdog to your liking.

    Great quick snack... Just wish they had some seats inside. Ordering on the kiosk outside was easy.

    The line to order was super long and one of the machines broke, so it became even longer. There was only one guy working though so understandable. The hotdog itself was pretty big and filling and very delicious! We ordered the potato covered one which was pretty solid. Perfect for a pre dinner snack!

    Located in the heart of Korea town and it was a treasure. They have many options of hot dogs and I decided to go for the potato hotdog because of the pieces of potato attach to the hot dog that looked so good! Once I got it, I made sure to put the sauces that Jongro had. They had sriracha mayo, cheddar cheese, honey mustard, and ketchup. The sriracha mayo and cheddar cheese were my favorite and made the dog really delicious! The potato pieces were very crispy and hot! I had to wait a while for the potato pieces to cool down because it burned my tongue! The wait for pickup was kind of long because of the amount of orders that come through. They are very busy! You can order through the kiosk or in person. Sure going to pop in Jongro to try more of their varieties and flavors!

    We were tempted by the viral spiral potato and decided to give this place a try. There are a few kiosks where you can order from and then go to the back to pick up your food. The wait time was a lot, especially since it was a busy evening with a long list of orders ahead of us and only two chefs working in the kitchen. The spiral potatoes were too good. They have a wide array of sauces to put on the potatoes and we tried the boom boom sauce and the honey sauce ( I forgot the actual name). The boom boom sauce tasted out of this world. There is no seating and the ambience is pretty basic.

    You can't go wrong with the crispy Korean Hot Dog! This place does a great job and I always stop by whenever I am up in NYC. Service is fast and good. The line gets busy at night so try to get it during the day. Make sure to add sugar and ketchup. That's how you eat our hot dog! It's conveniently located in the heart of Korean town on 32nd street.

    Food (4/5): Got the volcano dog with cheddar for $7.49. Overall decent and a unique corn dog. The flavors and crispiness were good. My main issue is that the corn dog was falling apart because the meat was too small relative to the breading Service (4/5): Mostly automated where you order from a tablet. The food took a bit long to come out. There is some outdoor area to eat. Ambiance (4/5): A long hallway with a variety of food stalls including this place. Other nearby places include a mochi and boba spot.

    Located in a booth next to mochi donut and bubble tea booths, Jongro Rice Hot Dog has a convenient kiosk ordering system near the entrance. The 3 booths are in a narrow hallway, and there are 3 seats belonging to the bubble tea shop at the entrance. There are around 10 options, and my friends got the Sweet Potato Corn Dog and Sweet Potato Mozzarella Corn Dogs. We came on a Sunday at noon, and it got busier around 1pm. The food was fried on the spot and ready in around 5-10 minutes. There are sauces you can add yourself after, such as Ketchup, Spicy Mayo, and Mustard. Positive: fast and casual for to-go or a quick bite Downside: no seating

    My friend wanted to try a Korean corn dog and we saw this shop and stopped in! We've had them before where it was hot dog, cheese, hot dog, and cheese (in quarters) but this one was the first half cheese and second half hot dog. It was delicious !

    Corn Dog (half cheese half sausage)

    First the food: I got a simple, half cheese/half sausage corn dog and enjoyed it. It's a simple meal, so don't expect anything outstanding. It was still genuinely good and satisfying. Second, the ordering process: there are three different stand within the store and they all have separate ordering kiosks (you cannot order with the staff). Just be aware and read the signs because it can be very unclear. With the corn dogs, the ordering kiosk was outside and then you have to go in the store to the respective counter. There is no inside seating, but there is some outside. There are also gloves available in case things get messy (they have a lot of sauce options which is nice). All in all. Food is good. Ordering process could be a little easier.

    Korean style hot dog has been my favorite when I was growing up. I am so glad that I can find it in NY these days. I tried this hot dog in Queens and Manhattan midtown ( this particular location) but I find this location is the best. I just had one hotdog since I ate already but I used to order few and bring it home for later. This place has been very consistent with the quality and it has been my favorite Korean style hot dog spot. It does sound weird to cover it with sugar( one of the option on the kiosk) but try it at least once and you will know the difference. Korean Hotdog

    Came here yesterday after work for a quick snack. There was a short line at the kiosk outside but a long wait inside the shop. I was waiting patiently even though I was hungry (secretly wishing it would be my turn soon). This is my second time here. All items are freshly made (deep fried) to order. Like they say, good food take time to cook. Even though it was freshly made to order (probably let cool for abit?) Because when I got my order and after drizzling 3 sauces (Boom boom, sriracha mayo and ketchup), I took a bite to realize it wasn't very hot. Tasted like it was there for a while. Not as crisp. The inside is still hot enough for that amazing long cheese pull. Ordered mozzarella potato hotdog. Picture on kiosk show meat inside so I was expecting the mozzarella to be wrap around the meat battered and deep fried. Instead, it is mozzarella, battered with potatoes and deep fried. Still tasted great. Suggestion: they should update the photos and descriptions on the kiosk.

    Are the hotdogs beef or pork?

    What vegetarian/vegan options do you have? Also is it fried in separate oil?

    all options are either a hotdog, a mozzarella stick, or half of each, so nothing vegan. it's a very small kitchen so i doubt they fry in separate oil but not sure.

    Does the machine take cash? And how does that work? Ex: if I were to place in a 100 dollar bill how would the change work

    I believe it's cards only . No cash

    What are the operation hours?

    daily 11am-10pm. for delivery, they're open on ubereats11:30am to 8pm and on chowbus they open at 12:30pm.

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. FOOD / DRINK - 4 stars...forgive me for I have sinned AMBIANCE - 3 stars...looks the same as it did in the last century SERVICE - 4 stars...they're quick and not rude...decide what you want before you order TOTAL - 4 stars...hope it survives RELATED - Hungry in NYC?
