Everyone was super-friendly and welcoming, and the business appears to be women-owned. We enjoyed chatting with our server and she gave us some great suggestions for Detroit activities. I enjoyed the coffee, Western omelette, and the toast. The bacon was a bit chewy and the home fries more resembled hash browns. If I were ever in the Detroit area I would return to Taylor's and maybe try something else.

This rock 'n roll themed diner is a downriver favorite for breakfast. The food is consistently…read moregood, even if the same order isn't always exactly the same. For example, I get the "Hearty" breakfast most of the time and it comes with eggs, meat, pancakes, potatoes and toast, and it really highlights what is this place's strength. Eggs: I get mine scrambled and have a nice selection of hot sauce to choose from. Meat: I appreciate that they offer turkey sausage since I don't eat beef or pork, but my wife loves their bacon if that's your thing. Pancakes: quality varies the most here as they are sometimes a little pale (but still good) but more often the idyllic golden one expects when ordering. Potatoes: lots of variety here, too, as my home fries come in different sized cuts with seasoning ranging from none to "no need for salt or pepper?" Toast: Again, wide variety of choices, I go with sourdough most often If this sounds like a lot of food, there are lots of other options that make it appealing to smaller appetites. But what I like about the "Hearty" is all the choices and the variation in style (probably depends on who's staffing the griddle) allows me to order the same meal and still feel like I'm getting some variety. Having said that, keep an eye out for the specials. They sometimes are tempting enough to get me to stray from usual. In addition to good food, the service is always friendly, and we've been back enough times to where I think every server recognizes us. Like I said, it's a favorite.

We ordered the mini breakfast with one egg, two slices of bacon and hash browns $4.95. We also got the corned beef hash with two eggs, toast & jelly $8.50.

Honestly, it's kind of hard to mess up breakfast items. The pancakes were huge and fluffy. It was my third time having grits and it's still meh to me. It's kind of like oatmeal, but more grainy. My hubby added butter and sugar to it. They also sell sandwiches, burgers, salads and a whole bunch of dinner entrees.

The staff members were very friendly and attentive to whatever we needed. After being served beverages, we were invited to partake of soup from their self-serve "soup bar," which included chicken noodle, cream of broccoli, cabbage, and lemon rice. I selected the cream of broccoli and can tell you that it was amazingly delicious. The flavoring was perfect and it was appropriately thick with lots of broccoli (of course) and delicate bits of carrots. A buffet was set up in our private room. There were salad makings available, with a large bowl of lettuce and separate bowls of fresh tomatoes and cucumbers. I passed on salad because I hadn't eaten breakfast and felt I needed to save myself for the entree portion of the buffet. I had chicken breast with mashed potatoes and vegetables. Salisbury steak was also an option. I was very happy with my food selections and the food was very hot. If this restaurant was anywhere near where I live, I can imagine being a frequent customer. It was the perfect choice, however, for the occasion as it was very close to the church and provided a comfortable venue for family members to offer condolences, share happy memories and enjoy a delicious meal. While I love to share photos, I didn't want to be inappropriate or obnoxious given the circumstances. Finally, I must say that there were many delectable desserts that I refrained from trying because I spent too much time in my car and was trying to limit my calories. If you find yourself in the Taylor, MI area, definitely check out Leon's Family Restaurant!!

Our waitress could pass for Sydney Sweeneys younger sister. She friendly and bubbly. We ordered steak n eggs, Philly cheesesteak, lemon soup and coney dogs. It came out in a decent amount of time. Steak n eggs was fine. My friend liked the lemon soup. The Philly cheesesteak was surprisingly good. The bun was soft and toasted. The seasoning was delish. We also never tried a coney dog from MI, so it was pretty good. Mainly because of the snap the dog had to it. The restroom however looked like it hadn't been cleaned in weeks. At the end, we asked the check to be split. She didn't do it. So yeah, overall, would I come back? Meh, probably not.

So back in Cincinnati, we have a big chili culture and the Coneys fit into that as they are usually covered in chili and cheese. Last time I was transferring out of Detroit Metro Airport, I noticed a big restaurant there that was all about Coney Island. So as we are driving through Allen Park to get to I-75, we see this place on the side of the road and say, yes! Must have breakfast there. I knew it wasn't the same one that we saw at the airport but I imagine there's a lot of different places around here that use the Coney Island title. We get there and you can tell this place has been around for decades. The restaurant was still very cozy though and very homey. It looks it! It was so busy and full and we were able to get a booth right away thankfully. You could just tell that everyone there had been coming for such a long time and it was such a local institution. Our waitress was super friendly and literally she just made our morning! I had the chili omelette which actually was just really delicious. Really good chili! Not quite as good as Cincinnati style chili though My fiance had one of the Coney dogs and he thoroughly liked it! It's good to pay with cash here as they do not take cards but there is an ATM machine. Parking on both sides of the restaurant as well. Highly recommended for a good breakfast although they had lots of stuff on the menu that I would love to try someday.

I didn't read the reviews because I didn't want to have any ideas or biases in my head before I tried it. Okay, let's go the restaurant sits on the corner of W. Jefferson and Southfield so it's fairly easy to find however parking is a joke. I parked at an apartment complex and walked down to it. Upon arrival the restaurant was surprised empty other than what looked like returning customers so that put my mind at ease, especially because this place was pretty dirty floor to ceiling. My waitress took a while to take my order but was very nice. I order a water, and a chicken sub with fries. So the chicken on the sub was seasoned very well other than that everything else was just barely edible. The lettuce on my sub was brown and the tomato was tomato chunks that fell off when I lifted the sub to my mouth and the fries were flavorless, mushy and cold. Ohh and I can't forget my water was warm enough to bathe in. It's a no for me.
