The hot dogs are pricey at six dollars but onions and sauerkraut are included. 4. Honestly, the hotdog was perfect - bun was crispy, hotdog was perfectly cooked with a nice char on it and the sauerkraut just elevated everything. This is the standard for what a hotdog should taste like. I would recommend this place every time. Despite it being very busy, we were able to get in line and get our food within 10 minutes

I could not quite place the taste; but it was cold out of the fridge & very nice to complete my 1st experience at this classic Clifton cuisine stop. Service was quick & pleasant. Did I mention the bill was $25. We left $35 because we felt like it. Staff was appreciative. The hot dog itself - unique fried dog - as for flavor... it was different or "plain" if that makes sense; but not bad. Good for sure. It was a different dog than I used to get at Callahan's or Hiram's in Fort Lee years ago ... and I still think one of the best hot dogs is Dover Grille or (if you can believe it) Hoover's bar on Rt. 53 in Morris Plains. Rutt's get 4 stars for classic feel, service with a smile & overall experience.

Like most people, you probably end up here when you're trying to come to PDT. We ordered the East…read moreVillage Tots ($5.95), Crif Burger ($9.95), Elote Dog ($7.95), and New Yorker Dog ($4). While food took awhile, we were no in a rush and the employees were friendly. The crif burger and New Yorker were too basic for me, but I enjoyed the elote topping for the elote dog. The tots were a nice side to pair with your meal. There's nothing like some hot dogs and burgers before/after drinking, so it's a smart pairing being next to all the bars. Would I come here solely for the hot dogs and burgers? Probably not. But it works great together with PDT.

The crif is pork and beef, New Yorker (all beef) and veggie option. I did a New Yorker (all beef) $4.75 with sauerkraut ($0.75) and the Spicy Redneck which featured a bacon wrapped crif dog with chili, coleslaw and picked jalapeños. Both satisfied the hot dog craving I had. There are also tater tots and burgers available. The bread was a bit stale, hence the 3 stars and the bun split on my New Yorker making it messy to eat. The woman behind the counter was friendly and suggested I try the dog featured this month- featuring a fried pickle or the Tsunami which has teriyaki sauce and pineapples. I would stop here again if in the area, but for basic dog a cart will hit the spot.

Long ago, when I was a fresh-faced ad agency intern, I spent a summer in a dorm room at NYU. With…read moreno interest in cooking, I remember becoming a semi-regular at the Gray's Papaya located at 6th Ave and 8th St and always ordering the Recession Special: two dogs loaded with onions and a papaya drink. It wasn't the best quality frankfurter, but somehow it worked with my indiscriminate palette. Flash forward a century or so, and this is the only Gray's Papaya left in the city. Since I'm a survivor, I thought it only appropriate to take Jamie to the original flagship location and order what else but the Recession Special. Sure enough, they still offer it for $7.50. It was $1.95 when I was a child, but it's still a good deal consisting of 2 Hot Dogs (Photo 10) and a Medium Papaya Drink (Photo 9). The franks were the same as I recall, nothing special but if you add onions and pay an extra 75 cents for the chili, it just works. The papaya drink is not a fruit juice but a puree mixed with sugar and milk. It actually complements the dog in a guilty pleasure kind of way. There was a line but it moved fast. Plenty of room at the red mini-counter, so I was able to relive my youthful dining dalliance with little effort. FOOD / DRINK - 4 stars...forgive me for I have sinned AMBIANCE - 3 stars...looks the same as it did in the last century SERVICE - 4 stars...they're quick and not rude...decide what you want before you order TOTAL - 4 stars...hope it survives RELATED - Hungry in NYC?

My favorite hot dog spot in Essex County. Anthony serves up delicious dawgs (try the hot potato…read moremash!). Small place, no interior seating. They have a small parking lot (but if stuck, I cheat and park in the Walgreens lot across the street and walk over!) Always has different specialty dawgs and they are all fire.

First off let start by saying they are good and prices are great but I personally wasn't a fan of…read morethe regular chilli. The specialty dogs were great, the flavors mix very well. I loved the potato mash also great flavor. The owner is a very nice guy. The inside is very very small no seating or standing room inside so you have to eat in your car.

Ended up getting the chili Texas wiener and plain with sauerkraut and mustard. The hot dogs were boiled so there was no 'snap' but still very solid and for the price, very good value. The chili is not too spicy and has a lot of flavor. If you're around the area and in the mood for some hot dogs, I highly recommend Hank's Franks. * Parking on premise * Outdoor seating - first come first seated * Very Reasonable pricing

The service was also super fast, about 5-6 minutes from when my order was placed to my hands. There's no seating, but it's easy to walk around and enjoy the city with. I tried the garlic sauce and loved it. I opted not to add sugar to mine but I have had it with sugar before and it is good!

OhK-Dog on Orchard Street is a fun & flavorful twist on the classic corn dog. These Korean rice…read moredogs are made with rice flour instead of cornmeal, giving them a super crispy texture & a unique flavor that sets them apart. I went for one filled with gooey mozzarella--so satisfying--and loved how it still kept the nostalgic corn dog look. There are over a dozen creative configurations, including versions with potato cubes or rice cakes, each with its own quirky appeal. Once you choose your dog, there are 2 more steps: pick a dry topping (I chose cinnamon sugar, which added a sweet-savory contrast) & finish it off with sauces from a lineup that includes ketchup, mustard, gochu hot sauce, and sweet chili. My only wish is that there was actual seating (it's more of a grab-and-go spot) & the wall being wide open made it feel a bit drafty. Still, the food is worth it. Definitely a fun East Village stop if you're craving something indulgent & out of the ordinary.
