    Let me put it in perspective.

    Our local mall has a chick fill a, and a Nathan's. Now granted, chick fill a's are few and far between where I am, but the chik fill a is always packed, and nathan's struggles for customers.

    And now I've decided to get chik fil a tomorrow for lunch. Thanks, BigBird.

    I wasn't really a fan of Nathan's when I lived in NY. It wasn't that good, and was over priced.

    It's been a long time since I've been to James Coney Island, but it was far superior to Nathan's.

    Some of the hotdog places in LA are better than ones I've had anywhere else.

    Pink's in LA is the best hot dog I have ever eaten. There is a reason why there is always a line.

    Moon Tower Inn is better than any chain hot dog restaurant.

    Is it better than a Costco hotdog? I think not.

    Nathans is to HotDogs what In-N-Out is to Burgers.

    Overrated.

    I'll still pick Sonic on the very very rare occasion I'm in the mood for a chili dog.

    I'd probably take a Sonic coney before I take a James Coney Island coney.

    No homo?

    Meh...

    Nathan's is mediocre. It isn't gross but way over priced and nothing unforgettable.

    The best hot dogs I have had have been from Chicago.

    lived in NYC for four yrs.
    Nathan's isn't anything special at all. About the same as James Coney Island.
