While located in New Jersey, you'll likely find more of the hot dog versions that are popular in Philly. Though very popular in South Jersey, North Jeresians would shun his method of cooking hot dogs by steaming them and placing them on a roller grill.

Fun place to wait in line for a hot dog . It moves quick and many different dogs to choose from. Grab a menu on the utility pole next to the line to help when ordering.
Incredibly cheap but amazing quality. HUGE menu of all different kinds of hot dogs -- some traditional, some unique so everyone can find something. Close to the beach . SUPER friendly employees.
Tommy's hot dogs are very popular and the line frequently extends far down the block. But don't forget the "Stuff-In-A-Cup". The Sumner Shower is my favorite.
The carrot dog is a great option even if you aren't vegetarian - after three straight days of hot dogs for lunch , for example. Get it buffalo style and add slaw , it's so good!!
The Jersey Slaw is their most popular unique dog, but my favorite is the peppery Black Russian
A must stop for beach break lunch . Cash only . Potato tornado is out of this world. Tuna salad good too, but first time, you gotta go with a dog. Be sure to make it a Bad Dog for less than $1 more!
Dutch dogs (mashed potatoes and sauerkraut ) are the way to go even if they're not on the menu this season. Tommy will still make them :)
Not sure if it's the hot dogs , the friendly service or the location...but this place can't be beat for a dog off the beach !
Best hot dogs around and there are tons to choose from. I love the Chippy Dog because there are crumbled potato chips on top. Yeah, crumbled potato chips .
what's good here? tough question...how about what's not good...nothing. Here is a place you can't go wrong with anything you chose. Michelin would give it *****.
Dogs are good. Wouldn't get any of the "stuff in a cup" again. The mashed potatoes are instant. Super friendly and sarcastic service :)
I think Tommy is a living bad joke encyclopedia that never gets old. When you're done tanning at the beach , treat yo self to a Tornado Dog BAD style then shove it in your face. You'll leave smiling.
The Reuben dog is amazing as well as the Chicago
The Chicago Bad Dog is fantastic. Try the cranberry slaw as a side too. Tangy and sweet.
You've got to go with the Texas Tommy with bacon and cheddar cheese. Junky goodness!
this place is the shit. i wish i could live in the hot dog hut! gotta try the thunder dog...its heaven on a bun !
Delicious hot dogs with tons of toppings.
Awesome Dogs but know what you want when you get to the window
Cash only (ATM around corner at Sweet Treats ).
Highly recommend the Texas Tommy bad dog
Best hotdog ... Ever. Seriously.
Now I know why there is always a line here....it's not because of the hot dog , it's because it takes so long to make change. Sorry Tommy. Not the greatest hotdogs .
Buffalo dog is excellent...
Tornado with hot sauce is a good beach lunch .
BAD Dogs are the best. Food here is amazing.
