Tracy W.Tracy White: Well done with kraut + mustard is the way to go!

Village VoiceVillage Voice: This relentlessly yellow hot dog joint hops 24 hours a day and is a symbol of Upper West Side cheap eats. Mustard is pretty much required; the only dilemma is choosing between the onions or the kraut.

Ben R.Ben R: 2 dogs. Onion, sauerkraut and mustard. Anything else is sacrilege.

Savannah P.Savannah Petrick: Worst service in NYC. I ordered a Reuben- they were out of bread, sauerkraut, pickles, and cole slaw. They also forgot to put Russian dressing on the sandwich. Not at all apologetic either.

Jessica K.Jessica Kim: La Colombe Coffee! The lox cream cheese is loaded with salmon. They will also scoop out breading from the middle of bagel if you ask (gluten-lite!).
