| Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE A - BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Nathan's Famous, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively “Nathan’s,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) as of and for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended September 23, 2018 and September 24, 2017 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The unaudited financial statements include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) which, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation of financial condition, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. However, our results of operations are seasonal in nature, and the results of any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for any other interim period or the full fiscal year.Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. We have reclassified certain prior period items in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 25, 2018 and the Statement of Earnings for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended September 24, 2017 to be comparable with the classifications as of and for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended September 23, 2018. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported total assets, total liabilities, stockholders’ deficit or net income. Management believes that the disclosures included in the accompanying consolidated interim financial statements and footnotes are adequate to make the information not misleading, but should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in Nathan’s Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the fiscal year ended March 25, 2018. A summary of the Company’s significant accounting policies is identified in Note B of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10 -K for the fiscal year ended March 25, 2018. Effective March 26, 2018, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Codification 606, “Revenue Recognition – Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC 606” ). There have been no other significant changes to the Company’s significant accounting policies subsequent to March 25, 2018. |

| New Accounting Pronouncements and Changes in Accounting Principles [Text Block] | NOTE B – ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS Revenue recognition In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance codified in ASC 606 which amends the guidance in former ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition.” The core principle of the standard is to recognize revenue when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration expected to be received for those goods or services. The standard also requires additional disclosures around the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers.This adoption of the new standard did not impact the Company’s recognition of sales from Company-operated restaurants as those sales are recognized on a cash basis at the time of the underlying sale and are presented net of sales tax. The standard also did not impact the recognition of sales from its Branded Product Program or its recognition of royalty income earned from its franchised restaurants or retail licenses, which are based on a percent of sales and recognized at the time the underlying sales occur.The details of the significant changes in revenue recognition and quantitative impact of the changes are discussed below. Franchise fees and international development fees Under previous revenue recognition guidance, franchise fees were recognized as income when substantially all services to be performed by Nathan’s and conditions relating to the sale of the franchise had been performed or satisfied, which generally occurred when the franchised restaurant commenced operations. Under previous revenue recognition guidance, international development fees were recognized as income, net of direct expenses, upon the opening of the first restaurant within the territory.Under the new guidance, the standard requires that the transaction price received from customers be allocated to each separate and distinct performance obligation. The transaction price attributable to each separate and distinct performance obligation is then recognized as the performance obligations are satisfied. The services that we provide related to upfront fees we receive from franchisees do not contain separate and distinct performance obligations from the franchise right and as of March 26, 2018, initial restaurant franchise fees, renewal fees, transfer fees, and international development fees shall be recognized over the term of the respective agreement.National advertising fund The Company maintains a national advertising fund (the “Advertising Fund”) established to collect and administer funds contributed for use in advertising and promotional programs for Company-operated and franchised restaurants. Previously, the revenue, expenses and cash flows of the Advertising Fund were reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets and not included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Statements of Cash Flows because the contributions to the Advertising Fund were designated for specific purposes and the Company acted as an agent, in substance, with regard to these contributions as a result of industry-specific guidance.Under the new guidance, which supersedes the previous industry-specific guidance, the revenue, expenses and cash flows of the Advertising Fund are fully consolidated into the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Earnings and Statements of Cash Flows. While this treatment will impact the gross amount of reported advertising fund revenue and related expenses, the impact is expected to be an offsetting increase to both revenue and expense with no impact to income from operations or net income because the Company attempts to manage the Advertising Fund to breakeven over the course of the fiscal year. However, any surplus or deficit in the Advertising Fund will impact income from operations and net income.The Company applied the new guidance using the modified retrospective method, whereby the cumulative effect of initially adopting the guidance was recognized as an adjustment to the opening balance of accumulated deficit at March 26, 2018 in the amount of $2,004,000, net of tax. Therefore, the results of operations from the comparative period have not been adjusted and continue to be reported under the previous revenue recognition guidance.Impacts on Consolidated Financial S tatements The following tables summarize the impact of adopting ASC 606 on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended September 23, 2018 ( in thousands):

Anticipated Future Recognition of Deferred Franchise Fees The following table reflects the estimated franchise fees to be recognized in the future related to performance obligations that are unsatisfied at the end of the period (in thousands):
(a) Represents franchise fees expected to be recognized for the remainder of the 2019 fiscal year, which includes international development fees expected to be recognized over the duration of one year or less. Amount does not include $242 twenty-six weeks ended September 23, 2018. We have applied the optional exemption, as provided for under ASC 606, which allows us not to disclose the transaction price allocated to unsatisfied performance obligations when the transaction price is a sales-based royalty. |

| Description of New Accounting Pronouncements Not yet Adopted [Text Block] | NOTE C – NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS NOT YET ADOPTEDIn February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on leases, which outlines principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases applicable to both lessors and lessees. The new standard is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those annual reporting periods. The standard is required to take effect in Nathan’s first quarter ( June 2019) of our fiscal year ending March 29, 2020. The new guidance requires lessees to recognize on the balance sheet the assets and liabilities for the rights and obligations created by finance and operating leases with lease terms of more than 12 months. The guidance requires either a modified retrospective transition approach with application in all comparative periods presented, or an alternative transition method, which permits a company to use its effective date as the date of initial application without restating comparative period financial statements. The new guidance also provides several practical expedients and policies that companies may elect under either transition method. We currently expect to apply the alternative transition method and elect the package of practical expedients under which we will not reassess the classification of our existing leases, reevaluate whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases or reassess initial direct costs under the new guidance. We do not expect to elect the practical expedient that permits a reassessment of lease terms for existing leases and are continuing to evaluate other practical expedients and elections specified in the new guidance. As of September 23, 2018, there were $10,492,000 in future minimum rental payments for operating leases that are not currently recorded on our balance sheet; therefore, we expect this new guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets and related disclosures. We do not expect the adoption of this guidance to have a material impact on our consolidated statements of earnings and statement of cash flows.In January 2017, the FASB issued an update to the accounting guidance to simplify the testing for goodwill impairment. The update removes the requirement to determine the implied fair value of goodwill to measure the amount of impairment loss, if any, under the second step of the current goodwill impairment test. A company will perform its annual or interim goodwill impairment test by comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying amount. A goodwill impairment charge will be recognized for the amount by which the reporting unit’s carrying amount exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of the goodwill. The guidance is effective prospectively for public business entities for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. This standard is required to take effect in Nathan’s first quarter ( June 2020) of our fiscal year ending March 28, 2021. Nathan’s does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.The Company does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standards, when adopted, will have a material effect on the accompanying consolidated financial statements. |

Diluted income per common share gives effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that were outstanding during the period. Dilutive common shares used in the computation of diluted income per common share result from the assumed exercise of stock options and warrants, as determined using the treasury stock method. The following chart provides a reconciliation of information used in calculating the per-share amounts for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended September 23, 2018 and September 24, 2017, respectively.

| Notes to Financial Statements | |
| Fair Value Disclosures [Text Block] | NOTE E – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Nathan’s follows a three -level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to measure fair value. This hierarchy requires entities to maximize the use of “observable inputs” and minimize the use of “unobservable inputs.” The valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date. The three levels are defined as follows:● Level 1 - inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market● Level 2 - inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability● Level 3 - inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liabilityThe Company’s long-term debt had a face value of $150,000,000 as of September 23, 2018 and a fair value of $150,375,000 September 23, 2018. The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt based upon review of observable pricing in secondary markets as of the last trading day of the fiscal period, which we classify as Level 2. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of the instruments. Certain non-financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis; that is, the assets and liabilities are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis, but are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when evidence of impairment exists. At September 23, 2018, no fair value adjustment or material fair value measurements were required for non-financial assets or liabilities. |

Accounts receivable are due within 30 days and are stated at amounts due from franchisees, retail licensees and Branded Product Program customers, net of an allowance for doubtful accounts. Accounts that are outstanding longer than the contractual payment terms are generally considered past due. The Company does not recognize franchise and license royalties that are not deemed to be realizable.The Company individually reviews each past due account and determines its allowance for doubtful accounts by considering a number of factors, including the length of time accounts receivable are past due, the Company’s previous loss history, the customer’s current and expected future ability to pay its obligation to the Company, the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. Based on management’s assessment, the Company provides for estimated uncollectible amounts through a charge to earnings. After the Company has used reasonable collection efforts, it writes off accounts receivable through a charge to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

| Income Tax Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE K – INCOME TAXES On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, (The “Tax Act”) was enacted which among other provisions, permanently reduces the top corporate tax rate from 35 percent to a flat 21 percent beginning January 1, 2018 and eliminates the corporate Alternative Minimum Tax. The Tax Act limits the deduction of business interest, net of interest income, to 30 percent of the adjusted taxable income of the taxpayer in any taxable year. Any amount disallowed under the limitation is treated as business interest paid or accrued in the following year. Disallowed interest will have an indefinite carryforward. The Tax Act also repeals the performance-based exception to the $1.0 million deduction limitation on executive compensation and modifies the definition of “covered employees”. Additionally, the Tax Act intended to allow businesses to immediately expense the full cost of new equipment. However, the law as written does not currently permit restaurant companies to take advantage of the laws’ intention.The income tax provisions for the twenty-six week periods ended September 23, 2018 and September 24, 2017 reflect effective tax rates of 28.5% and 39.4%, respectively. The majority of the decline in the Company’s tax rate is due to the reduction in our Federal income tax rate from 34% to 21% pursuant to the Tax Act. Nathan’s effective tax rates for the twenty-six week periods ended September 23, 2018 and September 24, 2017 were reduced by 0.4% and 1.9%, respectively, as a result of the tax benefits associated with stock compensation. For the twenty-six week periods ended September 23, 2018 and September 24, 2017, excess tax benefits of $46,000 $194,000, respectively, were reflected in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings as a reduction in determining the provision for income taxes.The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at September 23, 2018 was $250,000, all of which would impact Nathan’s effective tax rate, if recognized. As of September 23, 2018, Nathan’s had $238,000 of accrued interest and penalties in connection with unrecognized tax benefits.In January 2018, Nathan’s received notification from the State of Virginia that it was seeking to review Nathan’s tax returns for the period April 2014 through March 2017. The review has been completed; Nathan’s has accepted the findings and settled the matter in the second quarter fiscal 2019. The effects of the review have been factored into the Company’s effective tax rate for fiscal 2019. Nathan’s estimates that its annual tax rate for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2019 will be in the range of approximately 27.0% 30.0% excluding the impact of any discrete items recorded and excess tax benefit associated with stock compensation. The final annual tax rate is subject to many variables, including the ultimate determination of revenue and income tax by state, among other factors, and therefore cannot be determined until the end of the fiscal year; therefore, the actual tax rate could differ from our current estimates. In addition, the ultimate benefit of the Tax Act on Nathan’s is unclear as the lower annual tax rate could be outweighed by deduction limitations and other provisions included in further guidance and regulations. |

Certain Restricted Payments which may be made or indebtedness incurred by Nathan’s or its Restricted Subsidiaries may require compliance with the following financial ratios:Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio : the ratio of the Consolidated Cash Flow to the Fixed Charges for the relevant period, currently set at 2.0 to 1.0 in the Indenture. may be made, certain additional debt may be incurred and acquisitions may be made.Priority Secured Leverage Ratio : the ratio of (a) Consolidated Net Debt outstanding as of such date that is secured by a Priority Lien to (b) Consolidated Cash Flow of Nathan’s for the Test Period then most recently ended, in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate; currently set at 0.40 to 1.00 in the Indenture.Secured Leverage Ratio : the ratio of (a) Consolidated Net Debt outstanding as of such date that is secured by a Lien on any property of Nathan’s or any Guarantor to (b) Consolidated Cash Flow of Nathan’s for the Test Period then most recently ended, in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate. The Secured Leverage Ratio under the Indenture is 3.75 to 1.00 and applies if Nathan’s wants to incur additional debt on the same terms as the 2025 Notes.The Indenture also contains customary events of default, including, among other things, failure to pay interest, failure to comply with agreements related to the indenture, failure to pay at maturity or acceleration of other indebtedness, failure to pay certain judgments, and certain events of insolvency or bankruptcy. Generally, if any event of default occurs, the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the 2025 Notes may declare the 2025 Notes due and payable by providing notice to the Company. In case of default arising from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, the 2025 Notes will become immediately due and payable.The 2025 Notes are general senior secured obligations, are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries and rank pari passu in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is not subordinated, are senior in right of payment to any of the Company’s existing and future subordinated indebtedness, are structurally subordinated to any existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 2025 Notes, and are effectively junior to all existing and future indebtedness that is secured by assets other than the collateral securing the 2025 Notes.Pursuant to the terms of a collateral trust agreement, the liens securing the 2025 Notes and the guarantees will be contractually subordinated to the liens securing any future credit facility.The 2025 Notes and the guarantees are the Company and the guarantors’ senior secured obligations and will rank:
The Company may redeem the 2025 Notes in whole or in part prior to November 1, 2020, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes redeemed plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest. An Applicable Premium is the greater of 1% of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes; or the excess of the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of the 2025 Notes at November 1, 2020 plus (ii) all required interest payments due on the 2025 Notes through November 1, 2020 ( excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over the then outstanding principal amount of the 2025 Notes.Prior to November 1, 2020, if using the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings, the Company has the option to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes at a redemption price equal to 106.625% of the principal amount of the 2025 Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest and any additional interest.On or after November 1, 2020, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2025 Notes at a decreasing premium over time, plus accrued and unpaid interest as follows:
In certain circumstances involving a change of control, the Company will be required to make an offer to repurchase all or, at the holder’s option, any part, of each holder’s 2025 Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”). In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of 2025 Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, to the date of purchase.If the Company sells certain assets and does not use the net proceeds as required, the Company will be required to use such net proceeds to repurchase the 2025 Notes at 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest penalty, if any, to the date of repurchase.The 2025 Notes may be traded between qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act. We have recorded the 2025 Notes at cost. |

| Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | NOTE P – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES 1. Commitments On February 27, 2017, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company executed a Guaranty of Lease (the “Brooklyn Guaranty”) in connection with its re-franchising of a restaurant located in Brooklyn, New York. The Company is obligated to make payments under the Brooklyn Guaranty in the event of a default by the tenant/franchisee. The Brooklyn Guaranty has an initial term of 10 years and one 5 -year option and is limited to 24 months of rent for the first three years of the term. Nathan’s has recorded a liability of $204,000 as a component of Other liabilities on the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets, in connection with the Brooklyn Guaranty which does not include potential percentage rent, real estate tax increases, attorney’s fees and other costs as these amounts are not reasonably determinable at this time. Nathan’s has received a personal guaranty from the franchisee for all obligations under the Brooklyn Guaranty. For the remainder of the term, the Brooklyn Guaranty is limited to 12 months of rent plus reasonable costs of collection and attorney’s fees. 2. ContingenciesThe Company and its subsidiaries are from time to time involved in ordinary and routine litigation. Management presently believes that the ultimate outcome of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations. Nevertheless, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and unfavorable rulings could occur. An unfavorable ruling could include money damages and, in such event, could result in a material adverse impact on the Company’s results of operations for the period in which the ruling occurs. |
