Though Nathan’s Famous is known for its hot dogs, the brand is beefing up its menu with the addition of New York Cheesesteak and new Sauced Chicken Tenders.
Nathan’s Famous' new New York Cheesesteak is a hearty sandwich made with a half-pound of Pat LaFrieda's premium black Angus Ribeye. The meat is then paired with caramelized onions, melted American cheese, LaFrieda’s Butcher Reserve Steak Sauce, and served on a Balthazar Baguette. Along with the new New York Cheesesteak sandwich, Nathan’s Famous is also serving up new Sauced Chicken Tenders. Available in three-piece or five-piece orders, the dish consists of the chain’s classic tenders covered in either Mango Habanero, Buffalo, and Honey Sriracha sauce.
Both dishes are only available from participating Nathan’s Famous restaurants.
