albaAugust 1, 2009hot dogs, tater tots and fine cocktails by mixologists await you on the other side of one phone booth
Cole StrattonMarch 11, 2010Definitely order the Benton's Old-Fashioned, made with bacon-infused bourbon, and a Wiley dog.
Kate MiltnerFebruary 22, 2009Go to PDT and get the bacon flavored bourbon. They use Momofuku bacon fat to flavor it. The tater tots are an excellent companion.
Vanessa RamirezApril 30, 2012The drinks are totally weird. We were a table of 8, only one of us liked what we drank. (Order the Shark)
So many delicious, hand crafted cocktails to try! I recommend the Corpse Reviver #Blue
Daniel NogueiraNovember 5, 2010Exclent drinks but the caipirinha (brazilian drink) is not close to the original one.
Ru LuOctober 25, 2014The doorwoman said the wait was 3 hours (Friday around 10:30pm), which was not true. (More like 45 min) She had an attitude unfortunately. :(- Go to PDT and order the Benton's Old-Fashioned, tater tots with cheese and jalapenos, and a John John Deragon dog.
Geraldine ChungMarch 13, 2009Make a reservation at PDT and order a Chang Dog. Fried kimchee atop a hotdog - deeelish!
Dan KoplowitzOctober 21, 2010PDT: the secret bar for douchebags from New Jersey who google "secret bar" + "NYC"
Patrick HaneyJune 9, 2009Bentons Old Fashioned: bacon infused bourbon, maple syrup, bitters. Fantastic.
