I am not a hot dog fan but oh boy! I get why this place has its reputation. They have a great menu with lots of choices and they have a nice area where you can sit, eat, relax and enjoy the summer weather. I tried out their Nutella milkshake as well as the tiny hot dogs & the normal sized ones. ALL AMAZING. We kept getting back online to re-order more hotdogs. Eventually we even got a free bottle of Walters Mustard. It is the perfect place to go to on a summer day to connect and unwind. I very much recommend the Nutella milkshake. Give this place a chance, its a landmark for a reason. The best hotdogs I've ever had in my life.

wow, this place was so cool. They seem to be a steady line of customers and a steady flow going. Staff is super efficient and polite. They hotdog are delicious and their shakes are super yummy too. I was surprised that their clam chowder was so good. They were super cute sitting area on the side. Is the top-notch hotdog experience. I went with the chili cheese dog on a pretzel bun. My friend got the hot dog with smashed tater tots on top. We split some sweet potato fries, which were yummy and cooked perfectly. This place is Gold.

I can see why this is an institution. My favorite bites were from the chili and milk shake. Loved seeing the hot dogs and buns grilled on a flat top stove and loved the size of the hot dogs. Overall though, besides the carmalzation bites from the flat top I wasn't blown away from the hot dogs. They tasted a little watery to me, I have only been once so maybe it was fluke. That being said, I loved the vibes and food enough to want to come back everytime I'm in the area. Service was friendly and efficient.

Walter's is one of those places that'll get an occasional look when we want some good hot dogs and some great milkshakes (and the occasional surprise, like at AnimeNYC). Just as usual, a couple of Big Walts with mustard and a single with ketchup, along with Oreo and Salted Caramel Cowboy shakes. This time we tried the latter with malt added, and I won't order it any other way from now on. In addition, they had a watermelon lemonade available, which we also had to give a try--quite refreshing and flavorful, with the only disappointment being its limited nature. Additionally, they have a nice outdoor seating arrangement that feels very much like a classic barbecue or picnic area, which is especially great for the season. They're definitely worth stopping by, particularly if you're a fan of specialty shakes.

Walter's is s a hot dog stand, popular by demand. It's a "must go to" when you are visiting Larchmont, Mamaroneck, or nearby towns. Now, I need to tell you. It's not popular by demand and a "must go to" because I said that. The reason being, many new comers say that the must go by Walter's because someone told them how good the hot dogs were and the service. I've been visiting Walter's for 24 years. I know, it's hard to convince you because this is my first review and check in, but I'm not here to convince you of how long I've been eating Walter's hot dogs. I'm only here to convince you that you need to come by and witness for yourself. Walter's is a hut that sells hot dogs. They used to have a table where you can sit but it's predominantly take out place. They do have several trucks as well so you can have a catered event. Waiter's hot dogs are split in half and served flat. I really prefer my traditional hotdogs on the bun but this works and they are really delicious. I had one regular dog with ketchup and their mustard relish mix, the bun is toasted and that gives a nice crunch and mild flavor, nothing tangy. I also got a chili dog and it was quite different. A small portion of Walter's style chili, it also was pretty good and not overwhelmed by the chili. The tater tots were different they weren't regular tots it was more potatoie if that makes since. I discovered that they have a vegan dog. If I had viewed the menu closer before ordering, I would have tried it. The also have shakes and other is tems. Pics of menu posted. This was such a tasty trip and Walter's customer service is always A-1 service. I'm full but I have room to... Inspire more, Yelp more!

I forgot how much I like Walter's. It must be 20 years now since an industry colleague asked me and a mutual friend if we've been to Walter's Hot Dogs yet. I was a neophyte in the Hudson Valley at that point and hadn't been, but made amends right away. It became a fairly regular stop during summers my first few years up here: weekly drives down the Hudson Valley to Long Island were made more palatable knowing I could swing by Walter's on the way home. A change of jobs meant I had not been back in a while, but I corrected that today on the way home from the airport. It's just such a cool and friendly spot. The split homemade hot dogs and mustard, the fries and just the entire experience are wonderul. I've met friends there, and everyone loves it--the food and the whole experience. It's another great spot in our region. Oh, and it's been there over 100 years and is now on the National Register of Historic Places.

I have had Walter's on my "to do" list for so long now. Finally got to have some of their fantastic Hot Dogs! We got there right around 11:30 and the seating area was pretty much the high school from across the street. Thankfully, once we got in line, their lunch was ending to they skeedaddled back to class. I placed my order for a single, and a puffy dog, both with mustard. My Brother got the same. How were they? Amazing! Hot Dogs- These hot dogs are a blend of pork/veal/beef. They slice them in half and cook them on the grill so both sides get nice and charred/cooked. Their mustard is like a spicy brown style mustard, and they are served on soft steamed buns. What does that equal? A damn fine hot dog! The chew of the dog was great, and that mustard was phenomenal (I should have bought a bottle of it). I could see why all the high school kids were eating here...I would too.....like every single day! lol. Puffy Dog- Same as the hot dog, but they add 2 potato puffs inside the bun. It created a nice texture, but I liked the straight up dog better. Service was great at the window, and the building is very cool! Historic Landmark! If I lived near by, this would definitely be my spot, and if I'm ever back near NYC, I'm taking the drive up here to get some more dogs. They were awesome! Wish I had ordered more, but we had a long day of eating pizza ahead of us!

One of my all time favorite hotdog spots. Whenever I am in town, Walter's is a must visit! The food was nice and hot. The service was great. Food was out within a few minutes! Plenty of outdoor seating available. Restrooms are clean and available if needed.

August special - strawberry shortcake sundae

Truly A Westchester staple. The classic building that encases this hot dog stand is a beautiful and historic, matching the food itself. A Water's hot dog is unlike a normal one that you'd find at a baseball game or in the grocery store. It has a unique flavor that has stood the test of time. The curly fries are perfectly seasoned and crispy and this might be one of the only places in Westchester you can still get an egg cream (haven't had one here in a while but it's still on the menu!) I came for their 106 year anniversary since hot dogs were $1.06 and man, did it hit the spot. I drank that float so fast it was almost gone by the time my hot dogs were ready. I saved the strawberry shortcake sundae in the freezer while I ate my dinner and honestly I was a bit disappointed. The sponge cake wasn't soft enough for my liking and the strawberries didn't seem fresh but its not a normal menu item so I can't knock it too much. Everything else was just so perfect.

You know why Walter's Hot Dogs have been around since 1919? Because it is an awesome experience of good hot dogs and a family friendly place enjoyed by so many generations. Kids have a great time and the parents can relax. Great menu with a variety of options and yes there is a veggie dog for those that are inclined to go that way. Love the floats with you choice of soda and flavors of ice cream. This place just speaks to simpler times and good family outings. Service is quick and friendly. There is usually a line, but it moves quickly as each order is wrapped and bagged. Good mustard over split and grilled hot dogs. Parking in the back or on the street is easy. Plenty of outdoor seating if you stay or hop in your car and go. Corn hole for those wanting to give it a throw. This is a must try if you are in Westchester, NY.

Have been pretty obsessed with Walter's since I had them recently at a food truck so of course we had to make stop at their OG location in Mamaroneck. There hot dogs pack a blend of veal, pork and beef grilled with a secret sauce, toasted bun and their mustard which is also to die for. They also have a variety of other things including French fries, straight and curly. We got their fries as a side, don't love them but could be worse, the hot dogs is truly where it's at. Walter's is a historical landmark, get the double, you won't regret it. In the summertime they have a nice patio around to the side of the parking lot with picnic tables and sometimes live music. This place can simply do no wrong, even for a pack of their dogs to take home.

Deemed by someone I trust in the food world as the "best hot dog ever" so it was no surprise she brought the whole family out here for a celebration. They were indeed incredible hot dogs! We went the whole day without being sure if they were pork, beef or veal and it turns out they are a combination of all three. We were able to take over most of that back picnic area for a big gathering and they brought out batches of the hot dogs whenever we needed them so they were always hot a fresh. Sliced down the middle, they are grilled perfectly. I am a ketchup and mustard girl (sue me) and the mustard here is just the absolute best hot dog mustard. Makes sense because it is home made! On top of hot dogs, we tried a few of their milkshakes and malted and I have never chugged something so fast. Get. The. Malted. While this is just a hot dog stand with lots of pic nic tables, the vibe is fantastic, clean and very spacious. A perfect stop if you are in the area and even for a day drive if you are craving a great hot dog and milkshake.

Truth be told, my party adventured here because of Kevin Dillon from Entourage. He grew up in Mamaroneck and mentioned how these are his favorite hot dogs in an interview. I can totally see why....and so reasonably priced. I ordered a Walter's single with "everything". It was very good, never had tried the split hot dog concept before. Because I ordered other items, I didn't order the double but in the future plan on trying the double and a chili dog. I also had the order of 5 Pigs In The Blanket. They did not disappoint! You can get 10 also if you plan on sharing. The Blanket was baked around the mini dog just perfect. A crust that was buttery and flaky. I dipped the pigs in mustard, just yummy . For sides, I had the curly fries and the new potato spuds. The fries were lightly seasoned, they were nice and crisp.The spuds were so good - like little mashed potatoes wrapped in a crispy potato coating - crunchy and delish. I had to have an old fashioned chocolate Egg Cream to drink. Ahhh, nostalgia at it's finest - highly recommend it. Quick friendly service , parking in the back of the stand and nice clean picnic tables with umbrellas to sit and enjoy the best hot dogs ever.

A friend and I were on a photo walk after visiting the County Center. Just a 7 minute walk away, on a side road before the train station, sits a small hotdog stand/restaurant. Outdoor seating only, but on a nice day, with their music setting the mood, sunlight streaming through the trees and Big Dennis greeting everyone and making conversation? It's the perfect little break. It doesn't hurt that the hot dogs are amazing!

We've driven by this place dozens of times when going to the train station and I finally looked it…read moreup and saw it had a great rating so we decided to try it. After trying it, it lived up to the hype. They offer a large selection of hot dogs with different toppings and fun combinations. My husband and I both tried the Bernie Mac dog (I got mine with no bacon) and it was so delicious! The Mac and cheese complements the hot dog perfectly and stayed on the hot dog surprisingly well. The tots were also very good! My only complaint is that I wish they had some fun sauces for the tots/fries. We ordered pickup on door dash which was very convenient and ready on time but when we picked it up I did notice the prices were pretty different compared to the menu which isn't the restaurants fault, I'll just make sure to order in person next time. Can't wait to go back again and try more things!

I arrived in New Brunswick by train, which is to say I trusted the machinery of civilization to…read moredeliver me to lunch. It did. A short walk later, I found myself at Destination Dogs, a place I had seen in photographs that suggested capaciousness. In reality, it is smaller.  This is not a complaint, just an observation.  I remember once hearing something about the contents of small packages. At 12:30 the place was full. Packed with humanity and appetite. I was seated quickly, as if someone had anticipated my hunger in advance. From the bar came the sound of construction crews discussing their midday rituals. Apparently this is where they come on Fridays, to repair themselves while they repair the city. It explained everything. Service was swift and attentive, a minor miracle given the crowd. I began with a Scotch egg, an item that seemed to have wandered in from another story entirely. I ordered it for that reason. I had always imagined my first Scotch egg would be eaten in an English pub under low ceilings and older regrets. Instead, here it was. Perfectly crisp, warm, and generous. The universe does not ask for permission. Then came the main event. The menu is an atlas of hot dogs. Domestic. International. Proteins in tube form arranged like possibilities. There is even an invitation to build your own, which I accepted. I attempted to recreate a favorite from Crif Dogs, a thing called the Spicy Redneck. Bacon wrapped dog. Pickled jalapenos. Coleslaw. Simple in theory. Destination Dogs improved upon it in every way that matters. The bacon crisped with purpose. The jalapenos spoke clearly. The coleslaw behaved. The hot dog itself seemed proud to be there. All of this, plus a 16 ounce beer, cost me about twenty five dollars with tip. A small price for order in a chaotic universe. Five stars. Not because perfection exists, but because this comes close enough to make the argument.

Delicious! Great variety of sausages and toppings to choose from. If it's your first time, I…read moreencourage you to pick something off the menu and you won't be disappointed. Service was awesome, walked in 2 mins before happy hour and the waiter took our beer order in record time. He was also very attentive during our entire meal. I ordered the Andouille Armstrong and it was my fav, great snap on the dog and all the flavors complimented each other great, I also had the Si Si Guey, wasn't my favorite but wasn't horrible, I wasn't a fan of the chorizo, I felt the toppings made this hot dog. As for ambiance, it's a bar, has TV, liquor, beer, etc., but clean. If I was local I'd be a regular!
