    Nathan's has always been my childhood favorite! I've been going to them since I was little, but their prices are really getting out of control! The quality of the food is very good, it's fresh, delicious and I love it! But it's the type of place you can only visit once in a while because of how expensive it is. But if you have the money and want some good tasting food, then I recommend them!

    The counter and menu and kitchen is very clean very nice

    Service was great food was great . I will come back. Must get the corn dogs. And the restaurant looks fabulous.

    Chicken tenders
    Ife M.

    Ok so I'm here way too early. But I was influenced by YT'er SJohnsonVoiceovers. He did a whole vid on Arthur Treacher's. So ofcourse it made me nostalgic cuz this was my childhood fave! I googled. And Nathan's supposedly serves same beer battered grub. A WHOLE LIE. The only thing that saved me is my Nathan's fries. The chicken tenders were gross. The batter was thick n soft. Raw on the inside. The chicken itself was tender enough. But the batter was soooo bad. I blame myself. No more wee hours of the morning food reviews.

    Cornbread nuggets and Cheese Fries

    Haven't been to Nathan's in a long time and was excited to stop here for lunch. The food was underwhelming and super greasy. I could see the oil from my overcooked cornbread nuggets all over my fingers. The only good thing about this place is that they keep it clean.

    Nathan's in Oceanside. Stopped in on the first Sunday of September an a beautiful day to boot. The restaurant had few people in it. A young lady celebrating a birthday and sharing some cake with us and a few others. The manager came over to sing along for the song. The young lady Ashley was my server and took the order. She was sweet and I'd hire her. The place was clean and the bathrooms ok but the soap did not work in the Ladies room, I made sure no one was in the Mens room and quickly got some soap from there! The tables were not even or level and lots of napkins fixed that, along with a few extra for the tasty but messy food. Franks, Burgers and fries were good and the Nathan's standard. A bit surprised to see it so empty, but then again not really on a great weather Labor Day weekend people were probably grilling up some of their own.

    My husband has been looking for an authentic Nathan's and we finally found it in Oceanside. We happened to be in the area to get an appliance fixed and happily saw the Nathan's sign. Every other Nathan's we've seen, whether a storefront or at a ballpark, did not have the REAL Nathan's hot dogs. Giving this place 5 stars because it was exactly what my husband was looking for. He ordered 2 hot dogs with a large combo. I got the hot dog with chili, cheese and bacon. I was in that kind of a mood. The hot dog had that nice Nathan's snap! If you're looking for the real deal Nathan's hot dogs, they are here. Not sure why Nathan's allows their name to be associated with the fake Nathan hot dogs...

    Southern Chicken Sandwiches with Fries & Cheese Fries

    I visited this restaurant last weekend and I tried the chicken sandwich. It was delicious and prepared well. The cashier was very nice and told us about new items that were available on the menu. We stayed to eat our food and food was brought to us at our table. Everything tasted good and the restaurant wasn't crowded. I always loved Nathan's and I know that I will return here soon. I will also tell everyone I know about this location.

    Have never been to this location even though I always pass it. My kids and I were hungry after shopping and stopped here for a quick bite. I remembered the chicken tenders at the Coney Island location being so crunchy and delicious so they were on my mind. I shoulda stuck to what I know like my kids did. They both had the hot dog combo. My chicken tenders were not great. The breading was falling off of them once I cut into them and they were not crispy more like w soft breading and soft on the inside. Not one to eat something I do not like I politely asked if I could exchange it for a burger. The staff was very courteous and did not hesitate to accommodate me. I ended up getting a burger which was also very mediocre. Moral of the story I'll stick to hot dogs when I go to Nathan's.

    "Premium" Shake
    Joe P.

    Nathan's is one of my (way too many) truly guilty pleasures! I give them 5 stars because they give get exactly what you want if you are coming here. You don't come here for gourmet pretentious over hyped food. You come here for snappy salty goodness in a bun! You come here for simple crispy but pillowy/potatoey fries! And now you can wash it all down with a decent shake. I got strawberry but they also have Ghirardelli chocolate and some other "premium" (yes, that is what they call them) shake. Not the best you will get but actually pretty good. I did not get it but they also have one of those Coca Cola all flavors dispensers that let you make your own soda concoctions. This is the last real Nathan's on Long Island so I would be very sad to see it go as Coney Island is such a pain to get to! There is a Nathan's licensee in Commack but their dogs do not have snap or flavor of the originals. Make the trip!

    Fish and chips
    Sunny C.

    Found this location after realizing that their other location closer to Party City had closed down. Guess a lot has changed since going away for college, huh? I was in search of some hush puppies and found this location on google thinking it was the old location. This place is pretty big! And it is located right on the corner, hard to miss. I went in around 7:30pm and there was no line, just people waiting on their food and a very empty kitchen with 2 people working inside. Most of the store was empty. The whole place is very colorful and had a lot of Nathan's lights and signs for free wifi. Definitely a good place to hangout if you're just looking for somewhere to chill. Just around 5 people were dining in, but somehow parking was busy outside. The cashier was friendly. I ordered the fish and chips dish which came with 2 pieces of fried fish, a ton of fries, cole slaw, and hush puppies. You have to ask for sauces. The fried fish and cole slaw were really good. I was originally craving hush puppies, but after smelling them in the car as soon as I opened the lid, it smelled like it was fried with old oil. The fries were very dark but not very crunchy. They didn't taste very fresh. I don't expect to get my food super fast since it was fried fish, but at least make it fresh. Maybe it is because it was a slow night so they didn't want to fry a fresh batch for each customer? Disappointed.

    They should be ashamed of themselves! $40 for two sandwiches and cheese fries. I asked no mayo on my chicken and they gave me mayo on the chicken and two sides of mayo. I asked for the cheese on the side of the fries and the picture below is what they sent me! DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY AT THIS JOKE OF A RESTAURANT!

    Upside down Buns instead of sourdough on my patty melt??!! How gross
