Nathan's Famous, known for its premium all-beef hot dogs and diverse quick-service menu, embarked on its culinary journey in 1916. The brand was established by Nathan Handwerker, a Polish immigrant, who started with a small hot dog stand in Coney Island, New York.
Over the years, it has grown into a prominent player in the quick-service restaurant (QSR) industry. Nathan's began franchising in 1975 and is currently based in Jericho, New York.

The brand is well-regarded for its lively and inviting restaurant ambiance, which has bolstered its reputation for over a century.
