We stopped in for a snack after we went to the NYC aquarium in Coney Island. We have seen this place many times on TV and being there is cool! They have the sign with the hotdog eating champs names- very funny! Anyway we grabbed a couple of dogs- my husband got the works and they were better then standard... more

Nathan's Famous is all about the experience...and a greasy one at that. If you are in Coney Island, it is a definitely must. The lines are insane and will keep you waiting for almost a half hour. Once you get to the front of the line, you will have the option to choose from various hot dogs, burgers, fried seafood,... more
