"For quick infusions of caloric pleasure, head for Crif Dogs on St. Mark’s Place, where the proprietors insist on deep-frying their wieners in great bubbling vats of oil. The result is a shiny, nearly glowing hot dog that bursts with rich flavor, which you can purchase for a few dollars in satisfying Philly-cheese-steak form (smothered in melted cheese and onions) or topped with slices of fresh avocado and bacon, like a BLT." — Adam Platt


Thats what NY Mag had to say. I was just there this past weekend and i had the Tsunami which is a House Dog, Bacon Wrapped, with Teriyaki, Pineapple & Green Onions. It was def the pineapple that caught my attention! The price was like 5 bucks and it was def awesome hot dog!!!

yea i heard there is a night club or something attached to the bar and that you have to go through a telephone booth .... can anyone explain this in more detail??

CityGuy

yes there is a bar next door to crif dogs but you have to go through a telephone booth (its very awkward) but i think you need to make reservations to get in. Not sure what the whole gig is about that. I'll have to ask or find out myself.
