Food Quality

Pros:

  • "Their batter gives their corn dogs the perfect crunch with a good ratio of filling inside!"
  • "These Korean hot dogs are delicious."
  • "It's the best Korean rice dog I've tried so far."
  • "The slushies were divine. Corn dogs were solid, they provided everything that they promised."
  • "The Korean Rice Corn dog is one of my favorite things that I missed in Asia."
  • "Loved it, everything I ordered tasted great! Until.. I found a HAIR inside of my corn dog..."
  • "The Oh K- Dog is very delicious but if you can handle the spiciness do not leave without getting a Spicy Rice Cake... amazing!!!"

Cons:

  • "I hope they improve their quality because unless they do, I can’t recommend coming."
  • "The potato mozz dog doesn’t have recognizable mozzarella cheese, it seemed more like mozzarella flavored rice cake or something."
  • "How disappointing…wanted to try because of the hype but the food here was bad enough that I couldn’t finish it."
  • "The corn dog was hot trash, the batter was bitter and kinda nasty."
  • "Ordered potato dog and sweet potato dog and waited an hour and a half in the cold."
  • "The breading is too think the hotdog taste different 😭"
  • "On the outside things look promising but on the inside it’s a cold mess. Literally, the hot dog was cold and was surrounded by raw sticky batter."

Service

Pros:

  • "The store is quite small but the service is always good."
  • "The cashier guy was understandable and nice enough to make my order a take out instead."

  • "The staff is friendly and organized."
  • "The customer service was AMAZING! The owner Eddy is such a kind soul and put so much love and care into our orders."

Cons:

  • "Their customer service is very inefficient and half of their staff on hand is often making tiktoks of the food that they are about to serve customers, slowing down the process immensely."
  • "The guy taking the order could not get it right for the life of him."
  • "Eh...honestly they need more employees and supplies in general."
  • "The service is a bit slow as they need to make every order fresh to ensure the crunchiness I guess."
  • "The service is slow whether it's really busy or not that busy."
  • "Very slow service, expensive soda, its just hot dogs in fryer, i work in food industry i know how quick you can make it and how slow intentionally can someone work."
  • "He never changed gloves and kept doing that for every order."

Value

Pros:

  • "And it's pretty cheap too for NYC, plus they have 4 flavors of dope slushies that are perfect for cooling off during this 95 degree sweatshop heatwave!"
  • "The prices are pretty cheap considering where the shop is placed."
  • "This place never disappoints.. a little bit of a wait sometimes but that’s because they’re always packed! It’s so worth it & the prices aren’t too high."
  • "Price is around $3ish - $5 super affordable."
  • "Corn dogs are a great size and not expensive."
  • "Prices are very reasonable and very worth the money."
  • "Yes, it’s $5. But my kids and I are now hooked and can’t wait to come again."

Cons:

  • "The price is pretty high for a glorified corn dog covered in fried potato."
  • "Disappointed though that the cwispy potato version didn't have the combo of the hotdog and the mozzarella."
  • "Only cons were that they take a while to prepare the food even though I only ordered 2 dogs."
  • "Ultimately this food just isn't for me. I find it overly decadent, indulgent past the point of pleasure."
  • "It’s alright. Pricey."
  • "The same for the potato mozza dog. Idk if it was the weather but the crunch is amazing, cheese not so great."
  • "Food was barely flavorful."

Ambiance & Facilities

Pros:

  • "This place is awesome! We waited in line for what ended up being about an hour in the cold to get a half-and-half dog and avocado garlic bread egg toast and they came out so fresh and amazing."
  • "Delicious corn dogs in such a lovely area! Sure love the Asian representation in LES 😄"
  • "There is a place outside of the store to eat your corn dog."
  • "It's just an in and out stand so no seating. Plan to grab, go and enjoy!"
  • "They have outdoor 'seating' it's like a shed with a table no actual seats...not a fan of it because it's not often clean...but you can take your stuff to go."
  • "Awesome vibe and decor."
  • "The food is easily portable and makes for great walk-n-chat-n-snack sustenance as you wander the neighbs below Houston Street."

Cons:

  • "This is just a storefront with no tables or chairs to eat."
  • "Also the place has no seating ??? For a place that is packed I expect seating."
  • "One of the things that I don't like about this place is that it is not a restaurant or its access to dine-in."
  • "Also not a convenient location because it’s down in SoHo & there’s no outdoor seating or parks nearby."
  • "The shop is really small."
  • "Came here at 5:30 on a Thursday and saw the worker in the back with a beard licking his fingers and then padding the breading onto the stick and then licking the left over crumbs on his fingers."
  • "Breading was thick and texture is like undercooked bread."

Wait Time

Pros:

  • "The cashier guy was understandable and nice enough to make my order a take out instead."
  • "I see other reviews mentioned the wait was long, maybe it's the time of day I went but I only waited 15mins."
  • "We were second in line when we arrived and were told it would be about an 8 minute wait but it was only 5!"
  • "Even though they were busy, line went down rather quickly."
  • "Really busy but they pulled through with the wait time! The servers and cashier is nice."
  • "We were lucky to wait for only 20 minutes on a Sunday noon and the line got worse after we ordered."
  • "When we ordered, they were very up front about the half hour wait if we ordered, which we appreciated."

Cons:

  • "Be prepared to wait at least 1hr on the line if you go on the weekend!"
  • "If you go on a weekend of midweek night beware the lines in the cold weather."
  • "Oh K-Dog has been trending recently and there is always a long line with about 30-minute wait."
  • "Ordered potato dog and sweet potato dog and waited an hour and a half in the cold."
  • "The wait for a few hot dogs is long."
  • "The caveat is that this place has a line about a 30 min wait, at least on a Thursday evening."
