You can go to the short service quick eats part or the sit down. Sit down has that old school traditional "been around forever" feel. Pleasant servers and bartenders. The staple Ripper hotdogs is a must and a tasteful burger (add ons extra. Good beer on tap and bar.

If you’re coming here with Michelin-level expectations, this isn’t the place for you. What I truly value about this spot is its independence and originality.
It’s less about fine dining and more about the warmth of childhood memories—nostalgic decor, friendly faces, fair prices, and of course, a really great hot dog.
I’m not usually a fan of chili dishes, but you have to try their in-house chili paired with a ripper hot dog. It’s a magic combo. I generally eat healthy, but when I’m here, I let myself be a kid again—right down to the cold root beer.
This place has everything from good food, good atmosphere to plenty of parking. The hot dogs are amazing and the home made mustard and relish on them were a must. I never tried a “ripper” before but it was good, still had a nice snap. I was expecting it to be a lot crispier but it was still satisfying. I got three with toppings and it was pretty filling. I had to try the fries with gravy, also recommend. Everything came out hot and fresh. You can eat there or in your car, the inside is standing only.
Finally made it to the rutt hutt which is considered one of the best hotdogs places in New Jersey and it's been around since 1928. I wasn't impressed to that level it's more like a dirty water dog from a hotdog vendor in Manhattan. But it was good but Nathans in Coney Island Brooklyn and boulevard drinks in Jersey City are still my favorite overall. The service is walk up and order and they are cash only which isn't a bad thing. Overall it's a great place and visit because it's been there so long and it's historic
I just love the nostalgia of this place. Hot dogs are great, so are the prices. Tonight I tried something different, just to see hey maybe it’s good. I had the duck, wasn’t bad but I wouldn’t get it again. Dry in most of the parts and not a lot of meat, more bones than anything. Looked amazing though, the presentation was good. Came with a side of mashed potatoes that was delicious and definitely made in house. But next time I’m sticking to the hot dogs and onion rings.
