Love this place! It's basically a greasy spoon where you can get breakfast anytime or sandwiches, hot dogs and burgers. If you order takeout food, they will bring it out to your car. The food is excellent comfort food and the service is solid. read more

I love this place. It's my second visit this week. It's old, but very clean. They have a basic coney menu but the food is VERY GOOD, as well as a great bargain. The waitress is super sweet too. Kinda reminds me of a Waffle House in the south! I'll be a regular customer now. read more

Super good cute little Coney Island. We definitely will be going back. Loved everything about it! read more

Service is great. Put the Jelly.. mixed fruit jelly, back on the tables and change out these nasty hot-sauce bottles. It wont affect your bottom line too much I promise. The new ownership is showing a little bit. read more

Dearborn Coney Island Restaurant - Re-used hotsauce bottle. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

I get it, the place is a local institution. If it was a person, it would be one only a mother could love. I didn't like it at all. We ended up here because I was with someone from the area who said you HAD to go to Coney Island. It's a greasy spoon diner with not very good food. I probably should have just gotten a hot dog instead of the turkey and cheese sandwich I ordered. Many things seem to be sold individually (for instance, we had to buy fries separately if we wanted them). Prices weren't horrible (I think my sandwich and fries was ~$7-8?), but still felt overpriced since the food wasn't all that great. The fries were ok though. Service was fine. But the service wouldn't get me to come back. If you have some sort of sentimental connection to this place, by all means go... but otherwise it's a place to skip. read more

I was craving an omelette this morning and not all places actually know how to make it the right way sadly. i.e mixing the omelette veggies and meats into the egg creating a egg pizza that's overall dry and stuff lodged in it, yuck! But not hereeee ! I ordered a western with chili and onion rings and it was all perfect, and very quickly prepared. They're also so courteous and thoughtful with bagging your food. They made sure all items were in the bag including sauces jellies, S&P, and silverware and some take home menus. NOT what you get at an L George's usually. Most L George's I've been to have been filthy, rude, aggressive and disrespectful, I once saw the cook in the back with a cigarette in his mouth at the Redford location, not even kidding, how gross I couldn't order anything after that. Sorry not sorry , L George's YOU SUCK. The Lady who took my order Over the phone today was very nice and did everything right. I love that they're so close and convenient to me. Definitely recommend them over anyone else around here! Don't waste your money elsewhere they definitely deserve it more especially in times likes these, support the GOOD small business around here! I will be coming back for more in the future. read more

Quick service, friendly staff and fresh ingredients made to order. I always leave full with a happy wallet. Cheapest prices in town!

Great service, economical prices and fun atmosphere. The old time double horse shoe counter with stools is great!

Nasty, I called to get 12 sliders and this is what they gave me on dinner rolls...no sauce for cheesestix, nothing. read more

Dearborn Coney Island Restaurant - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Dearborn, Michigan

This is hands-down the best breakfast I've ever eaten. Ever. Seriously. Jacob and I have been about 5 times since we moved into Dearborn. The first time we went, we both ordered the French toast special. This menu mainstay includes two pieces of the most deliciously cooked French toast and two of each of the following (!!!): eggs, fresh bacon, seasoned sausage links and tender ham. This is such a HUGE breakfast for the reasonable price of $4.95. My favorite thing about this place? Not the crazy amount of food I get for basically nothing. Not even the fact that I think the French toast is infused with crack because I can't get enough of it... It's the consistency! Each time I've visited, I've ordered the exact same thing, and it's ALWAYS good. I've never had to send anything back, or complain to the waitress about something not being very good. That speaks volumes to me as a customer. Try this place... try their French toast special. It's simply amazing... I can't say anything better about the breakfast this restaurant serves. As an added bonus, the waitresses and cooks are very friendly and attentive. I just love this place! read more

I just left there n had sausage Patties as well as scrambled eggs with cheese grits and toast ... the most nastiest breakfast I've ever had... my sausage wasn't fully cooked.. my grits was dry .. and my eggs cheese was unmelted sat on top... I love their coneys next time I'll stick to that ... I'll never try breakfast again!!!! read more

Very good breakfast and coney dogs with a pleasant staff. I would definitely recommend trying this place

I having coming here for years since my daughter dances next door. I loved their spicy chicken Greek salad which is on their menu. But since one of the main cooks Jon left a couple of years ago it is touch and go as far as the spicy chicken but now they don't have it at all. I have been asking this short older stocking man if he going to get it back and the wait staff say they keep asking them to order it but it's a no go now for almost 2 months. If I wanted a plain chicken Greek salad I can go to any Coney Island that is closer to where I live instead of driving here for a plain chicken. read more

Coming from Ann Arbor, I wanted to stop by a breakfast diner before heading to the Henry Ford Museum. After looking at reviews for nearby diners including Romulus, Adam's, Bob Evan's, Sunny's, I decided to choose Dearborn Coney Island Restaurant. ATMOSPHERE: 4 stars It was a Saturday morning and when I arrived, parking was plentiful. Upon entering I snagged myself a booth. The place felt like a mom and pop and operated like mom and pop. The lady who took my order seems to be the owner because the groups of customers who seemed to be regulars called her by name although I couldn't hear what her name was. She was very friendly as were all the other staff. The place reminded me of a 50's diner/green fused diner. Regardless the place was clean cozy. There were booths for up to 4 people, tables, and counter seats. FOOD: 4 stars Menu was pretty extensive. I was deciding between the omelettes, french toast, and one of the hungry man's breakfast but in the end, I decided to get the corned beef hash with 2 eggs, toast and jelly for $6.25. The food came out fairly quick and just the way I wanted it. Eggs were cooked over medium and the corned beef hash wasn't too salty. It was just perfectly savory. The rye toast was actually really good. I usually never eat my toast but those toasts were awesome! I felt like it was a lot of food for me to eat at one sitting but I am excited to eat the leftovers for later after all that walking at the museum. While eating, the server will put your check on your table and after you are finished, you can bring it to the counter to pay and go. OVERALL: 4 stars I think this is a great diner to stop by for some great food for a great price. I think I saw that this is open 24 hours and that breakfast is served all day. If i lived nearby I'd probably choose to come here more often. Thanks for a great breakfast Dearborn coney island restaurant! read more

It doesn't look like much from outside and truth be told I have passed by it hundreds of times without a blink. Thanks to Allison and Jacob though I decided to give it a whirl. Cheap, tasty food and happy, efficient staff. A girl cannot ask for more. In and out quickly for a midweek breakfast, we both went with the highly recommended french toast special. Excellent breakfast meats (you get all three types), two nice eggs to order and some absolutely perfect french toast. Not a big place, not a glam place but a great stop for a quality breakfast at a great price. Do not wait, go and try it out yourselves. read more

I love me some breakfast at any time. I could eat pancakes for dinner every night of the week and be a very happy girl. So, I was thrilled to see that Dearborn Coney Island rocks the breakfast at any time menu. I was onto a good start. The interior of the place has seen better days. My booth seat was ripped up and taped over, it could use a nice deep clean, etc. But I'm ok with that. I am not anti a tasty dive! But if you're weary of such things, be prepared. The service was top notch. Our waitress was on the ball and brought me my diet Coke almost as soon as I ordered it. I had heard good things about the french toast here on Yelp so I went with the basic two egg breakfast (two eggs with hashed browns) and one slice of french toast. A little sweet, a little salty, and a super mega cheap! I was enjoying a business lunch and my counterpart ordered a club sandwich. The meals were both out lickety split. When we were checking out the gentleman behind the counter ringing us up was really nice and friendly as well. I had warm fuzzies leaving. My eggs were cooked perfectly overmedium as I had asked, the hash browns were my favorite kind--shredded potatoes, crispy on the outside, soft inside. They weren't anything that particularly unique or unbelievable but they were a great standard that fulfilled my eggs and potatoes craving. The french toast was great. It was a nice thick slice of Texas toast, soaked in a nice buttery, custardy breading and fried perfectly. This is the antithesis of anything healthy but for an occasional indulgent breakfast treat it's not a bad call. Not to mention you can't beat the price if you tried--under 5 bucks for my meal and I'll be full the rest of the day. Hot damn! read more

How could you not come in to dine at a Coney Island when visiting the greater Detroit area? Sacrilege, I say! That would be like going to Texas without eating beef or going to New England without eating "lobstah" or "chowdah"! This particular Coney Island, in Dearborn, did not disappoint at all. In fact, I wished that I would've been able to stay in town a little bit longer just so I could have the excuse to dine here again. These "old school" diners are getting harder and harder to find across the country. It really is a shame. Anyways, if chili and cheese are your friends (like they are mine), you'll love it here. Those two food items are found throughout the menu. Whether they're smothering French fries or a hot dog (with mustard, of course!), your tastebuds will be happy. The flavors were excellent, and the price was reasonable. Good ol' comfort food. As far as I know, this location is open 24/7 and they even accept credit card. read more

Thanks fellow Yelpers! We're hard pressed to think of another breakfast place we've liked more than Dearborn Coney, but I just couldn't go 5 stars. We scored a booth. Hot coffee and refills were prompt. Our food came out in, I swear, 5 minutes. BUT if we hadn't gotten one of the three booths in this relatively small place then we would have had to sit at the solitary strangely placed round table or on a stool at the counter. That might be why I'm stingy with that last star. It worked out perfectly this time, but next time... who knows. Ken loves French Toast. That's how I lured him here. The FT special is everything those other Yelpers are screaming about. Excellent value for the money. His only gripe was no toast to go with the eggs. Its a cheap add-on, so no biggie. I got the omelet with sausage gravy on it. I'm usually a fan of mushrooms, but I didn't care for them in this omelet. Otherwise, I'd recommend the dish. I was able to sub a large pancake for the hashbrowns, and I can see the Pancake Special being a winner for me next time. read more

I haven't been to a place where the food looks picture perfect but just look at it! Louie the Cook has his stuff on point. Crystal is the best server and very personable! I haven't been here in a while and it's not the same crew but it's a better crew!! read more

Terrible service, mediocre food. See my summary above. I haven't the patience to describe the particulars, but we went on a night they arranged for a high school fundraiser, so there were a lot of families coming and going over a three-hour period, and everyone who said anything about either mentioned either terrible service and/or mediocre food. read more

Wow. Glad we found this place. Great breakfast, great value. Started with a coney dog, even for breakfast. Delicious.

Great atmosphere and food! Great prices too. I got two Coney dogs and a coke for under 4 bucks today. I had a hard time finding this gym at first. There is no sign. It's one of those places where only those who know go. read more

I like to go t local places to work. I went to this place and found it to be dirty and basically empty. I asked if they had WiFi and the cook and waitress looked at me like I was speaking another language. When I complained that their listing stated that they did, they came up with a password that attached to the router but had no internet service. Food was ok. I just has a Greek salad but it was quite small when compared to the other coneys. I guess I'll just go to the chain restaurants where they respect my needs as a mobile worker and they want my business read more

What can I say?! I was lured by the other posts too. And I have to start by saying, "Thank you." The french toast special was to die for. As you've stated; it's a small place and not fancy by any means but the food was perfect. Everything was excellent. The meats were delicious and high quality. The french toast was so moist and buttery. The eggs were cooked to order and well seasoned (pinch of salt and pepper). The waitress was super friendly and very attentive. The cook was right in the middle of the room behind the lil' diner area and he was really polite too. The food was quality for sure. One thing that I don't think was mentioned (and to me is very important) is........THEY SERVE BREAKFAST ALL DAY! Best news ever since I like to sleep in on my Saturdays. We will be going back again and again and again. I can't wait to try some other items on the menu. Oh, and I never tell my friends to go try a place. Never, ever, ever. Yet for some reason I felt compelled to tell two friends to go to this place and try their breakfast! Yes, it was THAT good. read more

Solid breakfast joint. Decent prices. It's got no bells and whistles at all. I probably wouldn't even dine inside the place. But for takeout it's one of the better coney islands in the area. Don't know much about the waitstaff because I don't eat in. But the little interaction I do have is always pleasant and good service. They even will bring it out to your car if it's not ready yet. If you're ever lookin for a quick breakfast, this is a nice pick. read more

Simply put: the best breakfast ever. I told Allison this morning when we ate there - for about the fifth or sixth time since we moved to the area - that I could be perfectly happy eating breakfast there for the rest of my life. The french toast special is a complete meal of FT, two pieces each of three types of meat (the sausage and ham are the best I've had), and eggs, which I discovered today can be sub'd for hashbrowns... All for under $5. The place has that nostalgic diner feel that I'm so very fond of, with more bar stools than booth seats. The icing on the cake is that they accept credit cards! I avoid cash like the plague, so it's comforting to be able to stroll in for a diner breakfast without first having to hunt down an ATM. As far as I'm concerned, I'll spend the next several hundred weekends of my life enjoying breakfast at Dearborn Coney. read more

Went back today. Ordered a chicken greek salad. Sat and watched the cook. He grabbed raw chicken out of marinade, put on the flattop/grill, then washed his hands. Nicely done. A few minutes later, he shaped three large balls of raw ground beef into burgers before putting them on the cooktop. He then went straight to a head of lettuce, took it out of a plastic bag, ripped the core out with his raw meat hands before using a knife and his hand to chop it into pieces for my salad. Yeeech. I didn't get sick... but if I go back, I'm only ordering cooked items... that require a spatula. read more

New owners have spruced the place up but still deliver a robust diner-syle breakfast, great value for the money.

Cooks hair throughout both of our meals. On my girlfriend returned hers. We sat 5 feet from the cook and all he did was complain and throw stuff around. Very unprofessional. When I mess something up, I was taught to apologize not act like a child especially at work. For this old man's ignorance I won't be coming back. The food was okay. Everything is from the freezer here. Also. I ordered biscuits and gravy as I can't eat any veggies. And found two pieces of broccoli in my gravey. Good thing I checked. read more

Very disappointed in this place. Being vegan I asked if the veggie pita vegetables were grilled in butter or oil. They replied letting me know that it was mix of both. When I asked if they could just make it will the oil and no butter they refused to do so. The waitress then told me she could have them make a "Greek" pita with basically a Greek salad in a pita minus feta of course. I got the pita in front of me and it was raw onion, green pepper, and mushrooms. So, basically everything that the grilled pita would have had just not grilled...I sent it back and asked for the pita that the waitress had offered me and the man making the food said he wasn't going to make it...so I ate the fries that I ordered because they were vegan and I left. Will never return here. Rude, confusing, and unwilling to meet halfway with the customer. read more

I had the Gryo Omelette with feta cheese and it was really good. This place is so affordable. Me and my sister had omelettes and it was only $16 with 2 drinks. The waitress was really nice and when it gets busy it can take a little more time to get your food. But definetly worth trying for the price. I will be back for sure read more
