Excellent

by mr_meursault

This place serves up great hot dogs and sausages. The cheese fries and drinks are good too. The prices aren't cheap but won't break your bank either. My personal favorites are the chili-cheese dogs, and the spicy beef sausage. A regular hot dog with sauerkraut and onion goes a long way too. In any case, if you are in the area and in the mood for a two-thousand calorie snack, stop on in. Your arteries may not love you for it, but your stomach will.

Best Hot Dog

by ney

Absolutely the best hot dog in the city, perhaps the country. No comparison to the cheap "Papaya" knockoffs. These other joints may sell cheaper dogs, but the orininal Papaya King @ 86 Str. & 3 ed. Ave. is still the best. Also Papaya King's drinks & fresh fruit shakes & juices are way superior to to

the others.

papaya king is truly the tastiest

by hbieke3414

Papaya King is WAY better than Gray's Papaya. Gray's Papaya only offered me a choice of two toppings and NO relish. What kind of hot dog doesn't serve relish? No, Papaya King is truly the tastiest frankfurter around.

  • Pros: Great Food

Gray's Papaya is wayyyy better.

by jb8765

There's no question, go to the west side, Gray's Papaya is much better than Papaya King. The hot dogs at Gray's are much tastier, but both are good. And the people in Gray's are nicer too.

  • Cons: gray's is better
