49 Best Hot Dogs in New York

“We stumbled across this place yesterday, we dipped in from the cold for a break and had a pleasant surprise, the staff were so welcoming and made sure we got a seat at the bar... later realised I had read about the bar previously, the hot dogs are a lovely touch and drinks amazing prices. x“

“Dyckman Dogs was amazing! This was my first time visiting and I’m already planning to come back. The service was great, everything was fresh, and you can tell they really care about quality. Definitely a spot I’d recommend if you’re in the area!“

“The classicisme dog is by far the best, don't go out for the fancy ones, you're loosing money. Got two to be really full.
The plain tots were good.
Great atmosphere on terrasse in the evening. Recommend to have a night out in the East Village.“

“Jongro Rice Hotdog is a Korean-style corn dog spot that focuses on the popular street food version of hot dogs made with a crispy rice flour batter, different fillings, and creative toppings. Located in the middle of Koreatown, it feels like a quick grab-and-go stop rather than a traditional restaurant, with the focus being on getting a freshly fried snack and enjoying it while walking around the area. The concept is simple, but the variety of options makes it more interesting than a regular corn dog.

The main reason to visit is the hot dogs themselves. The batter comes out crispy on the outside while the inside stays warm and cheesy, especially with options like the mozzarella hot dog where the cheese pull is a big part of the experience. The potato-covered versions add another layer of texture, giving you a crunchy outside with the soft, stretchy cheese or sausage inside. The portion sizes are also larger than expected, making it feel more filling than a typical snack.

One thing that makes Korean hot dogs different is the ability to customize them with sauces and toppings. Adding options like honey mustard, boom boom sauce, ketchup, or other drizzles changes the flavor and makes each bite a little different. Some versions can also come with sugar, which is more traditional for Korean-style corn dogs but may be unexpected if you are used to American fair-style corn dogs. Personally, I found the savory versions easier to enjoy because they let the crispy batter and cheese stand out more.

The ordering process is a little different since you order through kiosks outside before picking up your food inside. The shop itself is small with limited space to stand or eat, so most people grab their order and continue walking around Koreatown. It can get crowded, especially during busy times, but the staff move quickly and the food usually comes out fresh.

The location is also part of the appeal because it fits naturally into exploring the area. After grabbing a hot dog, there are plenty of nearby dessert and drink options, making it easy to turn it into a casual food stop. The lack of seating is probably the biggest downside, but for a street-food style snack it does not take away too much from the experience.

Overall, Jongro Rice Hotdog is a fun place to try if you want something different from a normal corn dog. The crispy coating, melted cheese, and variety of flavors make it a memorable snack, especially when eaten fresh. It is not really a place you go for a long meal, but it is a great quick stop while walking around Koreatown.“

“Si estas en NY tienes que ir Comer ponerle todas las salsas y tomarte una foto cool 😎“

“LOVE this stand! The best in NY! Support the vets who fought for our country! The food is fresh and perfect! 👌🏻“

“Hamburguesas deliciosas y las papas con salsa de queso!!!!“

“Absolutely loved my visit here! The corn dogs were fresh, crispy, and packed with flavor. I was impressed by the variety of dipping sauces available, which added even more excitement to the meal. The atmosphere was fun and family-friendly, making it a great place to relax and enjoy good food. Every item we ordered exceeded our expectations. Highly recommended for corn dog lovers!“

“When I was a kid growing up we used to pay 50 cents for these hot dogs. A dog got you a hot dog and a Pepsi or Coke can.. times have changed it cost me $4.50 to get one hot dog which is crazy even to New York City standards, just saying. RIP Dolly Parton“

“First time visiting, and it was delicious!“

“Great late night place to grab a bite.“

“First noticed while watching the movie Fools rush in. Since my last name is Gray I always wanted to go there. Been there in 2010 the first time and immediately fell in love. A couple a weeks ago I went to New York on short notice and the first thing on my to do list was going there. Say what you want. Those are the best hot dogs on the planet. And I will go there again everyone I visit NYC. You just have to love them❤️“

“This restaurant is exceptional Quality food prepared beautifully Thoughtful selection of items on menu made by the chef and whomever else curates the kitchen There may be an over abundance of restaurants in New York that supply ambience, notoriety, and sometimes exotic preparations of food Westville keeps the food identifiable, presented in a way that makes you salivate!!!)) More of this, please“

“Serendipity 3 is a fun, iconic spot, but the food was a bit of a letdown. The burgers are overpriced for what you get and unfortunately didn’t live up to expectations.

The real reason to come here is the frozen hot chocolate. It’s exactly the kind of indulgent, over-the-top treat that makes the experience worthwhile and is definitely the highlight of the visit.

Come for the frozen hot chocolate, enjoy the atmosphere, but keep your expectations in check when it comes to the burgers.“

“Such a cool and amazing vibe. Me and my friends came here during HOPE and had such a good time. Melissa our bartender was amazing too!! She was hilarious and fun, and also helped take care of our friend who was not feeling too great. Ty melissa!!“

“Chicken over rice bowl is $10 and sooo worth it. It's so good. Prepared quickly and efficiently. I would maybe go light on the red sauce as it is very spicy, or remove it altogether (if sensitive to spice.)

Sometimes the chicken pieces have a weird texture or could be grilled a bit better. But that might be a personal preference thing. Fries are really good.“

“Great food and friendly service!“

“Love this place! The sandwiches are authentic and very delicious. They have a big variety of drinks and other Asian street food, like Korean cheese corn dogs. It can take a while for you to get your food, but other than that, I will definitely keep coming back!“

“I am a huge burger lover. I must say best burger in town. Juiciness overloaded, authentic taste & halal ❤️. Great service, great employees & good dine-in environment. Undoubtedly recommending Holy cow if you want to taste the best burger.“

“Great little place that really knows their burgers! It is just a few steps away from the Stone Street touristy places, but this is completely different, all about taste at affordable prices. All burgers come in a big box with delicious fries and other garments. Taste and texture are perfect.“

“the best shakes (tried a few) I have ever had. thick enough but drinkable from the beginning.“

“I had an amazing experience at this Corn Dog restaurant! The corn dogs were perfectly golden and crispy on the outside while remaining juicy and flavorful on the inside. The batter had just the right amount of sweetness, making every bite delicious. The portions were generous, and everything was served fresh and hot. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made the visit even better. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!“

“Have you ever wondered which side of a hamburger bun is actually the top?
The person making it doesn’t think about it.
The person serving it doesn’t check it.
Thanks for reminding me that we should never stop questioning the obvious.“

“Great burger and fries, fast delivery. One of the best burgers ever.“

“Listen. LISTEN. For me to search for this food truck on Google Maps after grabbing takeout, for the sole purpose of giving them a stellar review? You know that’s the best chicken biryani you’ve ever had. And I’m not saying that lightly. It was fluffy, perfectly cooked, generous with the protein, and a melt in your mouth flavour explosion. So good, in fact, that I might scrap other spots on my list and revisit this gem a few more times before the end of my trip. This place deserves more love!“

“Top! Première fois à New-York et a 5 guys“

“Absolutely the best place to go to Grab a drink after work , Have some Lunch, Watch the Game meet some amazing people, Phenomenal customer service and randomly go play some pinball in the back, while playing giant Connect four or Jenga. even eat or drink outside. great environment, my favorite go to bar and I live in The Bronx. Great Drinks, Great Food, Great Staff what more could you ask for.“

“Most of the staff was lovely and friendly but the small man in black was very rude after 15 minutes and me asking politely if my order was ready he mumbled something an stormed off ! Luckily the young man who served us came over and got are order
Maybe if you work with the public you should learn some manners

“The staff is super polite and friendly, my food was fast and the screens work well to place orders, the place is clean and you can see how they prepare their food at all times, these flavored burgers are not my favorites but I loved the milkshakes, this location recommended.“

“Excellent place good food“

“Tried Frankies Melt and was definitely worth the money and had a Pineapple Fanta to go with it, if we had the pineapple fanta back home It would definitely sell a lot. But if you come to grand central you definitely need to try Frankies hot dogs“

“GREAT BRAT'S AND AMAZING BUTCHER NEXT DOOR“

“Pending the consumption of food…consumed the food… Gooood mother of Christ and the holy bible dipped in holy water I felt like a pig and I loved every bit of it! This should be illegal. I got the Carolina burger, very good! The ONLY complaint is that it has quite a bit of sauce for my liking, not all the burgers are like that. Home made fries from fries! There’s great boat/rv parking on the left side along the fence, maybe enough for two maybe three. Can’t wait to see the growth of this place keep up the good work y’all🤙🏼“

“einfach nur super lecker 😋“

“Lovely staff, manager Rosa helped me when I accidentally ordered online from the wrong location on my phone (totally my mistake). Everyone was super kind and helpful. Also a nice place inside, lots of seating and big windows. Thanks for dinner!!🩷“

“First time visiting this location and absolutely loved all the warmth and friendliness by the employees here . Especially was struck by Javon who radiates such a kindness to each and every person he encounters. Whether they are fellow employees or customers he brings a positive energy to the space he is in . Speaking of space the tables were cleaned up quickly after meals and that’s pretty great considering how busy they are . It’s nice that Outdoor seating is available at this location as well . Delicious burger & lemonade too as per usual . Always a good to visit you , Shake Shack. Thank you for being consistently well staffed and delivering quality food for the price .
❤🗽🍔“

“Small location, burgers are consistently great, fries are always perfectly cooked and taste amazing. Five guys is good for an occasional treat, I like that they have calories listed next to the options it helps me make better choices on a treat meal.“

“Ein Muss, wenn man New York City besucht!“

“Hamburguesa de moda y sabor diferente“

“If I can give it 6 stars I would!!! The food was perfect!! 👌🏽“

“Can’t believe I’ve lived in New York this long and never tried Five Guys ! Delicious Cheeseburger and Fries . The portion sizes are great because I felt like you get a lot for your money . First time seeing an accessible tea dispenser which was very cool . For that reason alone I knew I needed to write a review . Space is very clean and perfect spot to go into before or after a movie across the street. Easy to order and service is quick and smiles all around by the staff . See you all again soon . I’m certain of it .“

“muy buenas hamburguesas NY“

“Look, it’s hard to go wrong with NYC pizza. It’s not the best but better than most places outside of the city. I had a few really good slices from different places and this place still makes a decent slice, especially for the unbeatable price of $2 for a slice of pepperoni.“

“Best Burger in NY 🔥🙌 i highly recommend“

“I have ordered DoorDash from this location twice within the last couple weeks and both times my fries were missing.

I called yesterday to chat about it. Danny was the kindest man and helped get it all straightened out.

Shit happens but the food here always slaps, and service was great.“

“Not exactly a "British" pub. Been in here for 10 mins and no one has accused me of looking at them "funny"...nice pint of Pride tho'“
