NileGuide Expert Says:
This is the original Nathan's hot dog stand, Coney Island institution and birthplace of the now internationally famous Hot Dog Eating Contest. No matter how many you can eat, it's worth a visit for some classic Americana.
Description:
- Home of the Famous Fourth of July International Hot Dog Eating Contest, Nathan's Famous has been serving mouth-watering hot dogs since 1916 at its landmark location in Coney Island. What started as a nickel hot dog stand has grown to a nationwide franchise, but hot dog aficionados swear that no other hot dog can compare to the original Nathan's! Maybe it's the sea air or the honky-tonk atmosphere – no one knows for sure, but one bite into these crunchy all-beef dogs will win over the greatest skeptic. The fries (with or without gobs of cheese or chili) are to die for!

nothing special about this hot dog - except, that you ate it on Coney Island. I have the mustard stains to prove it.

I don't get it

I really don't understand the hype with this place. We ate this exact location in 2008 and it was honestly the worst hot dog I've ever had; worse than a store bought, heated...
