    Skip the chili dog and stay with the original dog. It's best the classic way

    Have something with a lot of that disgusting cheese sauce and a coke, then go for an intense ride in Luna Park behind it. Sure to be an unforgettable day.

    Lines are long but it's not because the food is great. It's because you got 20 supervisors 0 supervision and 40 employees with about 39 of them just waiting for their paycheck.

    The famous hotdogs ! The sausage in it is great but the bread is just regular. But it's a must anyway !

    There's a Nathan's outside Coney& 1 on boardwalk. Eat at the outside 1 first, then get your souvenirs at the one on boardwalk on the way out

    Really good but too expensive. If you do decide to go for it, a simple fries and sauerkraut hot dog will do you well

    After the Hurricane famous Nathan's was destroyed!!!! Amongst other businesses in Coney Island! Coney Island took a massive hit! & lost a trade mark! Nathan's will never be the same again!

    If you are in the mood for a beer, the clam bar (cyclone side) has a solid craft beer selection.

    The franks there are super crunchy. Must be the ocean and that extra salt. Yum..

    Instead of the $4.50 dog, I grabbed the $10.50 seafood combo.

    Typical tourist trap with long, but managable, lines. The beef franks will leave you wanting more so be sure to pile up.

    the "clams" are delicious (but don't be fooled- they're just little fried strips)

    Highly overrated. Made the trip all the way to Coney Island to see what the 80+ year fuss was all about....NOTHING! But the boardwalk was fun!

    Big restaurant with small sitting area, had to wait a little till there's a table. Music was pretty old school American. Washroom on the side of the building.

    Have a cheese hot dog and a beer. It's the best combination. Don't ever think about eating anything else. Don't make that mistake.

    I waited 15 minutes in line to order, and the whole time I was there, not even one person in my line got their food! & the other lines were super slow. I left. Famous hot dogs. Bad and slow service.

    Expensive for hotdogs but its the original hot dog from Coney Island. Make sure you go to the one on the boardwalk. Surf avenue one is an extension

    Wow, get on line and hope for the best. 20 minutes and I was second on line. Mostly hipsters and old timers now anyway. RIP NATHANS

    Hotdog with sauerkraut was ok. Didn't like the sauteed onions, but the fries were fresh. Try the Coney Island mermaid beer!

    Get a hotdog, put mustard and ketchup on it. Get cheese fries and old fashioned lemonade. Eat on the grass in the new park by the boardwalk Nathans. Enjoy!

    A New York landmark but not the best hotdogs in New York go to crif dogs for that.

    Said to be the home of the best fries and hotdogs in the city. Still, it's as unhealthy as it gets... Enjoy!

    Don't be tempted by the giant menu. Get 2 hot dogs and a medium French fries. Trust me.

    If you're coming to Coney Island, it's basically mandatory to grab a hot dog or two from here.

    Many tips here are by people who got too much sun shining on their head. Hotdog is only random, nothing special, fries are quite okay. Medium coke is enough for 2 people. :-)

    Calorie counts give a great indication of how much beer you get for small, medium, and large
