28 Snappy, Standout Hot Dogs Around NYC

Liebman’s featured in Eater NY’s list of “28 Snappy, Standout Hot Dogs Around NYC” list in 2021.

Frankfurters, wieners, red hots, floaters, tube steaks, or hot dogs — call them what you will, weenies are perfect summer fare, perhaps because they’re so affordable (even the gourmet ones).After a lull in popularity that happened in the years right before the pandemic, hot dogs are back and stronger than ever, as more cuisines make use of them in innovative ways.

“The franks at this Jewish deli, open since 1953, are some of the best in town. Sit in the retro dining room and feel like your own grandparent. Even when cole slaw or potato salad top the wiener, the salty and beefy flavor still shines. Current owner of Liebman’s Yuval Dekel was once the drummer in a metal band called Irate.”
