I ordered the original corn dog with sweet chili sauce and it was so good! The batter was crispy and crunchy on the outside but soft and slightly chewy on the inside, which I love, and the hot dog was juicy and tender too. It wasn't heavy or oily at all. The sweet Thai chili paired perfectly with it, so much so that I'm still thinking about it as I'm writing this review and I want to go back soon.
Another relative late night in Flushing and we were looking for someplace that was still open at 9pm. We saw that food hall at Tangram on Prince St. closed later so we headed there. There are quite a few vendors here to choose from and wanted something light and chose CrunCheese. The mozzarella and the sweet potato Korean hotdogs were crunch and pretty good. Service was efficient,. Lighting is dim and there is a decent amount of seating. The Tangram has restaurants, a movie theater, OrangeTheory and also host pop up stores. A good place to get a bite.
Tangram Food Hall is really where it's at. And although they deserve their own stellar review, I did not want to shout them out here as well. All types of food and drinks, and centrally located in a great part of the neighborhood. It's definitely a spot to check out if in the area. CrunCheese's specialty are their Korean corn dogs which I am always down to try from different spots. I ordered the original half mozz and hot dog which is my usual go-to. Corn dogs are made to order so it takes a while to receive your order. When I did get it the cheese wasn't fully cooked and was solid in some parts. This wasn't terrible as it still tasted good. The hot dog was just OK, but the outside was tasty. You're allowed as many topping/sauces so I tried the honey mustard and roasted garlic, which spruced up the hot dog. The other highlight of this spot in the food hall is the lemonade drink they offer on their menu. Super tasty and not too sweet. I am a sucker for a good lemonade so these are dangerous!
For $5 or so, I got their original beef hotdog. It does take some time as they are freshly frying the hotdog, but I didn't realize how long it would take and I wish they said to come back in 5-10 minutes or something. It may take longer if there are more people who ordered in front of you. Various sauces and toppings to put on. I got ketchup and honey mustard, but you can't really control how much they put on unless you tell them beforehand. I felt my hotdog had too much sauce on it. Was good to try for a first time. This is conveniently located in Tangram's food court, so can act as a quick snack. I can see lines getting long here if you come on a busier day.
Located inside food hall of Tangram mall. First time visit. Hot dog price ranges from $5-$7 each. 12 different sauces such as ketchup, ranch, mustard available. We bought the jumbo beef corn dog for $5.39. Tasted ok. Nothing wow. Customer service is so so. A smile or thank you should be basic customer service. Wait time is reasonable, knowing it's freshly deep fried.
Located inside the new Tangram Mall food court. They sell Korean style hot dogs. Unlike regular corn dogs, the batter is made with rice flour, is dairy free, lighter and crunchier. We ordered their Potato Hotdog ($5.99) and one Original beef hotdog ($3.99). This was their only second day in business and it looks like some kinks needs to be ironed out still. It took them a couple of tries to make my order. The first time they fried the Potato Hotdog, half of the batter slid off the hot dog and fell into the deep fryer. After starting over, they were finally able to cook my order properly. Then I was asked what toppings I wanted and I told them sugar and sauces (garlic parmesan and sweet chillies) on the side. There are twelve different sauces available to choose from. Both hotdogs were really good. My favorite was the Potatoe Hotdog. The added potatoe pieces gave it a lovely crunch. I wish they hadn't rolled it in so much sugar as it became too overbearingly sweet. In other restaurants, they sprinkle the sugar on the hotdogs right after it's cooked instead of rolling it in the sugar. I thought the prices were more reasonable here than in most places I've been too. Next time I'll probably just go with classic ketchup and mustard for the toppings. And I realty want to try their squid ink mozzarella hotdog. I don't think I've ever seen that in any other place. Tip: during their soft opening weekend ( Dec 17-19) grab a hotdog and get a free drink
BLUF: 3.5 stars out of 5. Soft opening; yet to reach full potential. Plenty of customizations available. CrunCheese Korean Hot Dog seems to have originated in Las Vegas, and has come to Queens at a new stall in Tangram Mall. We visited shortly after their soft opening. We've had better Korean-style corndogs, but CrunCheese is still tightening their operations before an official grand opening. We tried: - Half Mozzarella / Hotdog: $4.99. CrunCheese mentioned that this was their most popular "starter" hotdog. This hotdog stick is comprised of super-stretchy mozzarella on the top that makes it entertaining to eat, and half of a hot dog on the bottom. - Potato Hotdog: $5.99. This was too starchy and dry, like overdone French fries, but I can see how a well-executed version would appeal to French fry lovers. A significant part of the corndog experience is determined by the choice of sauces and seasonings. CrunCheese offers four seasonings -- sugar, cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese, and a chili powder; and eight sauces -- ketchup, mustard, honey mustard, cheese mustard, garlic parmesan, hot sauce, sweet chili, and ranch. - Mango Lemonade: $2.99. - Strawberry Lemonade: $2.99. The lemonades were good; sweet, but not excessively so. CrunCheese says that their line of five lemonades are organic. While the mango and strawberry lemonades are visually differentiated by color, they would be difficult to distinguish by taste. Tangram Mall provides restroom facilities and complimentary VPN-friendly Wi-Fi.
This was my first time trying "Korean hot dogs". Actual, corn dogs would be more appropriate. They put a hot dog on a skewer and deep fry it with a batter coating. However, unlike the American kind, these are made with a rice flour coating. This spot has a very creative variety of dogs available. You can get the hot dog coated with mozarella, potatoes, cheddar, or with only the coating and no hot dog at all (for vegetarians). Then, you can choose one of four seasonings that they will sprinkle on it - sugar, cheddar, chili, or parmesan. And you can choose from a variety of sauces - honey mustard, ketchup, hot sauce, ranch, and more. The dogs here are very crispy and definitely a nice, starchy treat!
I would like to think that I'm a K-dog connoisseur who ventures out of her way to taste all of the corndog spots. Newly opened in Tangram, I ordered my usual fav, the potato mozzarella corndog. The batter wasn't toooo thick, and the mozzarella had the great texture for an ideal cheese pull. I especially loved all of their sauce choices, and I opted for the jalapeño ranch which I haven't seen before. A GREAT COMBINATION! The owner/manager was really great too.
Located in tangram mall's food court. This is a great addition for someone looking for a savory and sweet snack that's filling. The menu has the staple assortment of choices and a squid ink option! I got the mozz/hotdog and the taste and texture is comparable to jongro and oh-kdog. Topping with sugar is a must and they have many sauces to choose from, my go to is always ketchup and honey mustard. There is also a QR code at the counter to order online that gives you 10% off!
Food (5/5): Got the original, squid ink, and mozzarella cheese hot dogs. All were crispy and quite good. The cheese was super fresh and had the quality pull effect. They did a good job of putting very flavorful sauces. Venue (5/5): It's a nice, clean food court with plenty of seating areas and bathrooms. Looks modern. Service (5/5): Food came out fast and the server was helpful and friendly.
I'm personally not the first to get this but my kids love it so here we are. I was the first order right before 12pm and it took about 15 minutes for the order to be ready. I watched them prepare and my guess is that the wait time was for the oil to get hot. Was concerned about the cleanliness as I observed a rag and large white container placed on the same area next to the hot dog that was waiting to be dipped. Since its deep fried, I had hoped all germs were fried away. Writing this a week later and we are all feeling good with no tummy aches. The cashier is nice and patient. Informative on how long it takes and updates us without asking. Once orders are ready, they check your receipt and you get your tray of fried goodness. Comes with mustards and ketchup for the mozzarella hot dog. The outer layer is fried well with a good amount of batter and while the exterior looked tough, it was easy to eat.
Cruncheese was pretty good!!! The prices were good for the Korean hot dog. I like how this place has really cool and unique flavors such as squid. These flavors are really rare to find in Korean hot dog places. This Korean hotdog also had a pretty good cheese pull. They also provided us with some pretty good sauces on the hot dog. The service was medium paced, the Korean hot dog came out pretty quick. The service was also good, the staff members were polite. The place was inside a food court with a lot of different other food vendors and there was a lot of people there. Price: $5.98 Rating: 8/10

One of the very few Korean hotdog places left in flushing. I remember it use to be very popular. It is quick and easy to order and the wait is about 5-10 mins depending on how busy it is. I like that it has a lot of sauce you can put on your hotdog. I enjoy the potato batter with either hotdog or mozzarella. I always add sugar, ketchup and honey mustard. read more
Pretty solid place to get Korean corn dogs. Nothing special or fancy. Was pretty disappointed by the crepe. Not as neatly done or aesthetically pleasing like other crepe places. I also felt that for the price point, it would have come with something more than Nutella, fruit, and whipped cream. Service overall was fast considering all the customers coming in. read more

This place locates inside the Tangram food court. It is surrounded by many other food booths. The time we went was in the evening in the middle of the week. So, it wasn't busy. The wait was about 10 mins long. The hotdogs weren't so bad. It tasted okay. My friend and I just wished it was warmer/ hot inside as we took a bite of our corn dog. I enjoyed the sauces. I had ketchup and garlic parmesan sauce. I might try their other items again next time. Maybe if I go early in the day, it might be better. read more
Tried this place for the 1st time since ugly donuts closed & idk where to go anymore. Got a potato mozzarella corn dog ($7.61) which was pretty good. The exterior is crunchy like it should be & the interior is oozing cheese as it should be. The potato adds an extra crunch. Service could be better. read more

Your typical delicious Korean corn dog!! Can never go wrong with one of these for a quick on the go lunch. The mochi dough was cooked evenly and the mozz had a huge cheese pull. One I wish their spicy mayo has more spice to it to make it a 5/5. read more

I had the half cheese and half weeny. It was good but when I went to bite into the fried corn dog, the fried part slipped down to my thumb... If there wasn't this issue, I'd give the experience a 3.5 out of 5. It is cool that there are all sorts of different flavors you can pick from. Another con was that when I bit into the weenie-cheese, it would drip HOT cheese out and burn my mouth. Also not a very pleasant experience. read more
This is not just a hotdog! It's hotdog with a little extra ump! You can have mozzarella, cheddar, squid ink, ham, potato or any combination of toppings! It's a deep fried yummy delight! When in doubt you can buy a combo which contains 2 hotdogs of your choice and a quenching drink! read more
I ordered 2 corn dogs as there was a buy one get one half off deal, but the prices aren't bad to begin with. Ordered the potato hotdog and the mozza hotdog, both topped with ketchup and sugar. The batter wasn't too thick, and the cheese gave a good pull. I liked the mozza hotdog, but my boyfriend preferred the potato hotdog. read more

The food and the lemonade was really good! I got the combo with the lemonade, a potato mozza dog and a squid ink dog. The squid ink was not worth it. It didn't taste too great and had too much batter. The combo was a good price, but too much food. One dog is probably enough for most people. The service and ambiance felt normal - nothing extraordinary to call out. read more

I recently ordered at CrunCheese Korean Hotdogs, located within a food court in a mall. They serve a distinctive variety of hotdogs and non-hotdog items. The hotdogs were crispy and appeared appetizing. Service was efficient and the restroom was conveniently located on the second floor. The mall location is quick grab for a snack while also engaging in other mall activities. There are seating and it was quiet. read more

I went to CrunCheese twice already and it's ok. The quality of the hotdog could be a lot better. The mozzarella hotdog was basically all cheese inside except and 1/3 size hotdog inside. I thought it would be a whole hotdog covered in Mozzarella. I don't think I'll be eating at CrunCheese again. read more

corndog had a layer of uncooked batter. i wasn't going to post this bad review but the person working there was gas lighting me and saying this is how it is supposed to be. look at my pictures - is this how cooked batter looks? was literally arguing with them for 5 minutes for them to make a new one that is cooked all the way through. read more
