- Salih Seckin SevincNovember 21, 2016I came to this iconic place to eat the famous Frank hot dogs in November. I didn't see any lines; ordered 3 different types of hot dogs and enjoyed them. This is a must visit place in Coney Island.
- Village VoiceApril 9, 2015This iconic stand serves as a benchmark, with hot dogs that break apart with an aurally pleasing snap thanks to natural casings, & you can have yours slathered in chili, cheese, or peppers and onions.
- Rachel MercerAugust 21, 2012Classic Hotdog with Mustard, Ketchup, and Relish and you're good to go. Don't forget some of the crinkle cut fries. If the seating area is too full, there's some shaded seating in the amusement park.Upvoted 2 weeks ago
- Ben MackeyAugust 26, 2018If the line is long, walk down to the beach and there is another Nathan’s Famous on the boardwalk.Upvoted 1 week ago
- Andrew YochumOctober 2, 2011Good any time of the year. The lines on the right side of the building near the tables are usually the shortest in the summer. In the winter - the place is yours!
- Michael GreenbergJune 28, 2019Hot Dogs and fries. Hot Dogs are not cheap at $4.75. You can join the Nathan’s club and get them for$1.99 but only one a day for a month. They send coupons every month but only one item each visit.
- Clara EloyJuly 23, 2022very good hotdog, get it with the onions and sauerkraut. a tiny bit too salty for my taste but great nonetheless
- Jean CarlosFebruary 23, 2016The original Nathan’s!! Great hot dogs and good service. Love the location too, right next to the amusement park and the beach.
- Best hot dog in the city. But it’s getting really expensive do the child meal you get all you want for a reasonable price.
- Kimmie OhhJuly 27, 2020They have great hotdogs but they’re pricey. Come here on July 22nd (National hot dog day) for $0.05 hot dogs aka the original price of a hot dog when this establishment opened in 1916!
- David ChitanavaJuly 13, 2020According the guides its a must visit place. Hotdogs are really good, but it doesn’t differ from ordinary hotdogs you can buy in food carts. However, its a name, brand and history.
- RCMay 20, 2015You cant go wrong at Nathan's. Best corndog on the planet. It's been around for almost a century for good reason. Everything is delicious.
- Fodor's TravelSeptember 9, 2015The century-old recipe still works: the hot dogs have good, firm texture and a snap when you bite. The light smoky, spicy flavor is reminiscent of the ball park on a summer evening. Read more
- Love the hot dogs and french fries but they are certainly not the same as when I started coming here as a child. The dogs were plumper and had a taste to them that has disappeared.
- AstoriawinedivaMarch 12, 2012Coney Island Nathans is a must! Love sitting outside w cold beer & people watching. Ok u dig the dogs here, but on Coney Island menu they have a lobster sandwich to die for- move over Luke's - delish!
- Gabriel HayesJune 28, 2015A great place to basecamp during the Mermaid Parade. Delicious food. Very large draft beers (reasonably priced too). Has a large seating area outside.
- Jessica BishopJuly 30, 2015Hot dogs from the original are a must. I ordered a lobster roll (so cheap at 6.99) and it was tasty but the portion of lobster was pretty small. Guess you get what you pay for!
- John ΤσεντζεληςJuly 15, 2015Best hot dogs in town and around the world! If you want to see a historical site and have a brooklyn original meal you need to stop here.
- Akshay PatilJune 15, 2013Saddle up to the outside hot dog line on the side & order yourself a corn dog. Or stand under the terrace for 3x as long like a shmuck. Your call.Upvoted Sep 22
- Time Out New YorkJuly 18, 2018The bun is flimsy, but in the end, it’s just a vehicle for the chain-spawning wiener, which has a tight casing that gives way to a juicy interior. Read more
- Dan LamNovember 26, 2015Lines are long, but it gives you enough time to look at the menu and decide. Obviously you'll need to try the Nathan's hot dog if you haven't. Their cheese burgers and fries aren't bad either.
- What's Good HereAugust 10, 2014When in Coney Island, be sure to come here for NY's best hot dog. The lines can get very long, but it's worth the wait. Order the cheese fries, too.
- Fabian MartinJuly 25, 2022Honestly great Hot Dogs. They’re fast they’re a bit trashy but they’re delicious
- NYC: The Official GuideJune 21, 2013It's not all about hot dogs (though that's probably what you're here for)—the french fries and clams are popular choices, too. You can even buy frog's legs at the Surf Avenue location, if you dare.
- Monica CullenJanuary 17, 2015Even during the winter, a hot dog is great. Go for the classic with a local beer on the side.
- IanApril 24, 2013Go here and get yourself an original Coney Island Hot Dog. This place is almost 100 years old! July 4 is the World Famous Hot Dog eating contest. Also ride the Cyclone if you dare!
- Sarah Judd WelchMay 20, 2012Perfect after a long day at the beach. You're already sweaty, burnt and sandy so go all out and get a hot dog, bacon cheese fries and a beer. Worry about your health later. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more
- TeddyNovember 21, 2015If you're a fan of hot dogs, you must eat a Nathan's while walking around Coney Island at least once in your life. Just maybe not on a weekend...
- Justin McKissickJuly 28, 2016The original! Fries were a worthy extra, and the cheese dog was just the right amount of cheesy goodness.
- Allie CarieriOctober 6, 2014The best hot dogs ever. Get with sauerkraut and sautéed onions. And the lemonade is fresh and sweet.
- Gabriel HayesJune 28, 2015The standard for a hot dog. I personally enjoy the cheese dog, but I can't blame you if go the chili cheese dog route.
- River RoseMay 17, 2012Best hot dogs. Worth sitting in the freezing cold for! Come during the day to take a ride on the Cyclone, go to the NY Aquarium, and stroll down the boardwalk to Brighton Beach.
- Joseph HuppertJanuary 9, 2017Still fabulous, after all these years. They used to sell fried oysters, pizza , and lobster roll. Wish they would bring those foods back to the menu.
- Lala VaraAugust 1, 2017Still the best hot dogs. Chili dogs are nicely loaded. Lemonade is not too sweet. Nice selection of locally brewed beers. Consistent between locations at Coney Island.
- Buford BarnesMay 30, 2012Established 1916, expanded in 1946. Home to annual Fourth of July hot dog eating contest, dating back to 1916. Famously eaten by Al Capone and served by FDR to the British Royal Family.
- Deon DAugust 7, 2014Nathan's is still one of the best hot dogs you'll ever eat. Nathan's outside of Coney Island just will never be as good and the service seems much better.
- Jess KellyJune 15, 2016I was starving by the time the subway pulled into Coney Island, lemonade and the cheesiest of fries sorted me right out!
- Kimmie OhhJuly 27, 2020This is the OG location of Nathan’s Famous hotdogs! They’re still standing strong!
- Franncis PJanuary 2, 2017Still great dogs, still dirty in the summer, coney never changes but i love it! And thats why i always go back! Keep it real!
- Vito TartagliaOctober 13, 2015The main nathan's -the one in coney island- has slight bigger and much better franks than same brand shops around nyc.
- Peter GavarisAugust 23, 2014The french fries are simply the best. Enough said. Oh, and the hot dogs are pretty awesome too!
- The Corcoran GroupJuly 18, 2012Home to long lines, the annual 4th of July Hot Dog Eating Contest and hands down the best Chili Cheese Dog and Waffle Fries in the city.
- Jake SmithAugust 17, 2014You can get fries, drinks, and hot dogs (including corn dogs) much quicker at the "Express Lanes" on the right side of the counter.
- Lizzie SharkeyAugust 9, 2014Get the large cheese fries. They're only 50 cents more. (I promise I split them with Jen Korman)👌👍
- Jinnie LOctober 5, 2014Not the best hot dog in the world but hey~ u r in coney island! gotta try nathan's!! Pretty good hot dogs n *cheese fries* ;)
- Aizen KusumiAugust 1, 2015It was a good...a really good hot dog. Now the fries were not good. I do consider myself a French-fry sommelier and I with confidence can say, sub par. The service was good and very polite.
