ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?! 4/11/2009

Okay what are you guys talking about here? SNACK SIZED DOUBLES??? Wow. Not my impression at all. Go right nextdoor to a highly popular local chain joint and get bubkiss for $8 and change. For those of you who think its a ""hot dog stand"" its not nor will it ever be. Its a full on restaurant that features CONEY ISLANDS. Thats THE ONLY creative hotdog they have or will ever serve. If you asked for a fancy dog other then the nick's famous orginial the old owner would of thrown you out of the place. The problem is I dont think people dont like nicks they just may not GET Nicks. YES its greasy, for gods sake who told you Nick's was healthfood?? If you dont like the remodel your nuts, I know from eating there for 20 years it needed a LOT of work. The new owner nailed it, updating it without losing the original charm.THANK GOD the didnt make it a hipster alternative joint and thus sell out to the ""new hawthorne."" Where else can you listen to Sinatra while stuffing you face. I mean you are complaining about parking ON HAWTHORNE??? You dont get the flavor of the area Pam. Sorry. Anyway I have been a critic of the revamp but almost a year into it the place is perfect, the food is great and the people have never been nicer. Good job. Pros: IMPROVED AND PRESERVED Cons: New customers who dont ""get it"" more
