Nathan's Famous Hot-dogs: A Childhood Memory Arrives In My Neighborhood At Wal-marts No Less

by ifif1938 ifif1938 is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Restaurants & Gourmet, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, May 01 '05
Pros: The Hot Dogs are still great
Cons: No Fried clams served
When I was growing up in Brooklyn it was always a treat to go to Coney Island which was just a few miles from where we lived…Of course any visit to that very special amusement park and beach wouldn’t have been complete without stopping for lunch ...

Nathan's FAMOUS They've gone through changes, but the Hot Dogs Haven't

by popsrocks popsrocks is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Restaurants & Gourmet, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 50, Dec 17 '03
Pros: Consistently good hot dogs and the best fries anywhere.
Cons: Consistently, inconsistent prices.
You can still go down to Coney Island and get one of Nathan's FAMOUS hot dogs. Just expect to pay considerably more than the original 5 cents they charged when they opened in 1916. As a teen I can say I have had those dogs served at, what ...

Nathan's Famous Hot Dogs: Simply the Best

by quasar quasar is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Restaurants & Gourmet, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 100, Jan 04 '03
Pros: the best non-kosher hot dogs on the planet, good soups when they have them
Cons: somewhat expensive, different locations have vastly different menus, breakfast portions small
My family doesn't keep kosher, but much of the time we eat kosher meat. It's generally much higher quality meat and better cuts than the non-kosher alternatives. There are certain types of meats that I wouldn't touch with a ten feet pole unless they're...

Nathan's Hotdogs and More

by toiletoctopus toiletoctopus is a Top Reviewer on Epinions in Restaurants & Gourmet, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Nov 10 '08
Pros: Delicious Hot Dogs, Great Fries, Price, Friendly Service
Cons: Not close to my house, Chicken tenders are okay
I used to grimace and shake my head, when my wife wanted me to take her to the Leesburg Outlet Mall. Shopping at a mall is like going to the dentist, because while it is something that you have to do sometimes, I really don't like going there. ...

by glomarrone Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Jun 26 '01
Pros: Juicy Hot Dogs, great Value Meals, freshly-squeezed Lemonade, crinkle-cut French Fries, inexpensive prices/coupons
Cons: Noisy, lack of any décor, food lines, fatty foods, crowded at meal times
Recently I noticed smaller Nathan's Famous Restaurants springing up everywhere. I have seen new units opening at numerous airport locations, hotels, colleges, sports stadiums, convention centers and department stores. They carry the core product line....

Everything but the oink

by carnut2k4 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Feb 21 '05
Pros: Best hot dogs and fries around
Cons: Restaurants could be cleaner
Haute cuisine I love hot dogs. I’m not deterred by the evils of sodium and fat content. Hell, it doesn’t even bother me that they’re made of snouts and entrails. I’d eat ‘em everyday if I could. When I’m in the city (NYC) I hit just ...

Nathan's Famous: More Like Nathan's...Darn, I Can't Think Of A Clever Dis!

by jetbluefan1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 200, Dec 28 '03
Pros: still looking
Cons: overpriced, bad food, dirty atmosphere, small menu, bad service
There I was. Actually - no - there were we were. My wife and I just walked out of Madison Garden in Manhattan, and we were trying to decide over a meal or a snack. Pretzels? Or hot dogs with fries? They both sounded great, of course, but we ...

Nathan's - a New York City Tradition

by net100k , Jan 22 '05
Pros: Quality and taste of food
Cons: Price
Anyone who lives or has lived in the New York City metro area knows how good a Nathan's hot dog is. It's almost a right rather than a privilege to enjoy Nathan's Famous dogs. Luckily for the rest of the country, Nathan's has opened retail outlets in ...

The Birth Of a Hot Dog Memory-Nathan's Coney and a NeHi

by bwyckoff1 Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jun 17 '00
Pros: The best French Fries- super Hot Dogs
Cons: none
When I was a little girl, my grandma lived in Coney Island. She lived in a tenement building, three sets of stairs, no elevators. Back in the 50's Nathan's was a small , but wonderful addition to the entire atmosphere.

I would glance out the...

The fries are even better than the hot dogs!

by dtobias Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Aug 12 '00
Pros: Great hot dogs and French fries
Cons: The cheese fries will really raise your cholesterol!
I was born in Brooklyn, but got out of there at an early age. However, I still had relatives there for a long time, so I made frequent trips there as a kid, and they often included a stop at Coney Island for lunch at Nathan's. I haven't been to the...

Service with a Snarl

by pbyaeger Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Jul 07 '00
Pros: none for me, but hubby loves those fries
Cons: greasy food, surly service, wrong food again
I'll start out by admitting I've never been to the original Nathan's in Coney Island--and probably won't venture that far (unless my husband figures out how to sign up in their 4th of July Hot Dog Eating Contest). I've heard that's where Nathan's really...

The best "on the road" food

by Maja , Jun 24 '00
Pros: yummy, fast, did I mention yummy
Cons: /??
You want delicious foot long hot dogs, yummy onion rings, all for a small price and fast? Go to Nathan's. They've got locations all across the country.

I remember everytime we would go on our 9 hour car trek through New York, the only...

Addicted to cheese fries... a diet's worst enemy!

by cgjerome Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 29 '00
Pros: hot dogs, cheese fries, lemonade..mmm...
Cons: prices
If you're in the mood for a great hot dog, head to Nathan's. Their hot dogs are some of the best around. If you crave something salty and fattening (and don't we all every now and then?) then try the cheese fries. But be forewarned, you may get...

Coney Island Hot Dogs ~ All over the nation!

by Lioness921 , May 17 '00
Pros: great hot dogs and cheese fries
Cons: bad if you're on a diet
I'm a hot dog person. Sure, I'll enjoy a hamburger, but at a barbecue, I head straight for those hot dogs. At a party, I'll head straight for the lil hot dog in a blanket kind of thing. So, it's no surprise that I love Nathan's!

I haven't...

Good food fast.

by Dr.Terylene , Aug 28 '00
Pros: The food, the service, the portions
Cons: Maybe a little on the pricey side, but makes up for it with good portions.
Nathan's is well known as a staple of New York life, featuring it's self described "Famous" hot dogs. Well, as any New Yorker will tell you, you have to be the best to survive in New York, and Nathan's easily qualifies as one of the best.

Go to Coney Island Immediately!

by informer , May 28 '00
Pros: Great tasting food
Cons: Expensive
I wasn't going to write a review on Nathan's until I started reading some of the others. I was dismayed to find people writing opinions on Nathan's without having eaten at THE Nathan's in Coney Island, the famous original Nathan's. Forgive me for not...

A Hot Dog and a Memory

by Howie11239 , Sep 26 '00
Pros: Great Hotdogs
Cons: Evokes a past that it can't live up to
Nathan's still exists, but in many respects it is only a memory. My views are jaded because I can remember when there were only two Nathans Restaurants, one in Coney Island and the other in Oceanside, New York. In those days, the Hot Dog was...

Definitely more than just the best hot dog..

by ashmaddie , May 11 '08
Pros: Great food, tradition, also in supermarkets
Cons: High prices
How fitting my first review on Epinions in several years is about Nathan's - my grandmother and I were discussing the place earlier today. We were having fries during lunch and I commented how they were pretty good. My grandma then starting talking ...

Old Favorite Hasn't Lost It

by lauren_m , May 03 '00
Pros: Quick; big menu in bigger stores; value meals.
Cons: ---
Alright, so maybe the idea of Nathan's isn't quite so charming anymore, now that there's a branch in every single mall in America. On the upside, the quality of Nathan's food hasn't seemed to suffer much. They've expanded their menu a bit, they offer...

Is there anything better???

by Comedy , Oct 14 '00
Pros: Great hot dog, memories, and fries
Cons: Can be a bit expensive
WOW! Nathan's hot dogs. It may sound corny, but I can still remember my first Nathan's hot dog. It has a distinct texture and flavor all of its own. Not only is it a favorite food of mine, but also a nostalgic experience. Not for me, but for my mom....

I miss my hot dogs!!!

by labeba , Feb 19 '01
Pros: Best Hot Dogs in the World
Cons: There isn't one Nathan's in Puerto Rico
Everyday that goes by, I wish that I can eat a Nathan's Hot Dog. I am from New York and I used to eat at Nathan's every single weekend. I've been living in Puerto Rico for 8 years and there was 3 Nathan's over here and they were all closed 3 years after...

Over Hyped
by shades2000 ,Jul 21 '08
Pros: Fast Service
Cons: flavorless hot dogs hard dry bread standard chili which you can get at wal-mart
The hot dogs were average on best. There is nothing special about the taste with the bread bordering on being stale. You can go to this place if you want to have a peace of history and all the hype but thats all you will get; hype.
