Not only can you get a classic Coney Island hot dog, but they also have delicious fish and chips and a full breakfast menu. Everything I've tried so far has been fresh, tasty, and served fast. On top of that, the prices are super reasonable -- great food without breaking the bank. Definitely a new go-to spot!

Stopped in here for lunch yesterday. I had about an hour to kill, as my mom was having surgery at…read morethe hospital down the street. I don't live in MI anymore, so whenever I come to town, I try to grab a coney. My usual go to is Leo's or National. I had never been to L George's. I sat at the counter and ordered a coney combo (coney, fries and pop). It came out quickly. The dog had the perfect "snap", the chili was tasty, and the fries were nice and hot. While I was eating, several different servers checked on me to make sure I was all set. When I asked for the check, one of the servers said "it's been taken care of". I was like, what? She told me that an off duty cop who was sitting in a booth paid for my meal. Now mind you, the bill for a coney combo is not pricey, but still. I was blown away with gratitude. I recently lost my job and had just spent the first full week unemployed. The experience is humbling, having never been part of a corporate cut before. But, the time allowed me to come to MI to be with my mom while she underwent heart surgery. To the cop who bought my lunch, thank you from the bottom of my heart. To the staff at L George's...you are the best and I will be telling everyone I know. I can't wait to come back.

I was hoping for a bowl of lentil soup but there wasn't any available so I went with the chicken lemon rice soup instead. The soup was creamy, bright and very tasty. I'd love to have a Greek restaurant of this quality near where I live as I'd be a regular customer.

Our party of five arrived around 11 AM one weekday recently. Seating was open: tables and chairs, or booths. Everything was clean. No stickiness. Some of our party ordered breakfast; others lunched. Our server was kind, accommodating and efficient. He kept coffee mugs filled, and had our meals out in a flash. Everything was well-timed, brought to us fresh off the griddle or out of the oven. Impressive. The Reuben Sandwich I ordered was excellent: crisp, hot and full of corned beef. Sauerkraut was wonderfully sour. I even ordered an extra side! Price point is reasonable. High recommendations.

I really liked the Hashbrowns Cafe. For one, I appreciate a good small diner with reasonable…read moreprices and wait service. Spots like The Clique (though it's more expensive than it used to be), Marcus Hamburgers, Hygrade Deli, Colombo's Coney Island, and the Motown Grill on Van Dyke Hashbrowns fits in well with this group and I was happy to find it, as spots like these are increasingly becoming rare in the city, especially north of West Grand Blvd. You either have a very luxurious spot with wait service or it's take out only. Hashbrowns does its part to fill that void. Hashbrowns menu is awesome. I love seafood for breakfast and they provide it. Catfish, Salmon, and even Tilapia are all available here. Again, you're not often seeing this type of selection at a diner in the city. I ordered the Salmon Crocquettes with Eggs and Grits and it was very, very good. First off l, I loved the Croquettes. They were fried evenly with a lot of fish and a little bit of bell pepper for flavor. Most importantly, they weren't salty! They just let the ample portion of good quality fish carry them and I really enjoyed them. My grits were nice and smooth and with a nice bit of flavor. They weren't lumpy or mealy at all. The eggs were very good too. It was a great portion of food that easily carried me to dinner (no small feat). I loved the restaurants atmosphere. It's like a smaller, more low key version of the Clique. When I'm eating somewhere mid day, mid week, I just want to be able to gather my thoughts and get my food. Hashbrowns got the job done. Also, the wait service was awesome. I got my coffee and water filled a bunch and everyone was extremely pleasant. It's a neighborhood spot that everyone respects and the vibe was appreciated. It's on Conant street, which is one of my favorite spots in the city. It's a nice little hub of activity that I feel gets overlooked, with lots of restaurants lining the street. Loved it and will be back!

They are juicy and messy and exactly what I want from a neighborhood burger joint. The service was efficient and professional, and designed to get people through the line. This place is no-frills, and if you're looking to stop and chat, or feel paid attention to, this might not be right for you. If you're looking to get through a line quick, this is absolutely for you. The only downside was waiting outside while the meal was prepped. With how many complaints there have been about this, I have to think there's a good reason for it. In any case, I will be back, with cash in hand (they don't take credit).

Have you watched a movie and a character mentions a food item and you just gotta have it? Well…read moretoday's food item was an omelette mentioned in the series Mindhunters. So, I searched Yelp for 'omelette' and they never disappoint. Coolidge Café is located on 9 Mile Rd just east of Coolidge Rd. Their street sign says it plain as day for all to see - Coolidge Café Specialty Omelettes. Another sign says, they have had the best omelettes in town for over 40 years!!! They are open daily from 7am - 3pm. I studied the menu with a peeked interest. The menu has 27 Omelettes to choose from PLUS an Omelette Your Way option with your choice of meats, veggies and cheese. Each omelette is prepared with 5 eggs and served with hash browns or grits and toast. Yes, 5 eggs! After studying this large selection, I settled on the Coolidge Omelette with grits and wheat toast. Sunday brunch was delicious and filling! Besides omelettes, their menu is vast with other breakfast favorites, griddle, sides and breakfast wrap options. Their menu continues with soups, salads, wraps, burgers, sandwiches, melts, pitas, Coolidge dinners, Italian, Mexican, Seafood, Desserts and Side offerings. They also have a kids menu. Debbie was focused on placing those orders at the counter when I walked in to place my takeout order. She took my order with precision and brought my order to me where I was seating at a table by the door. Note: A 3% fee will be added to all credit card orders. The parking lot and the restaurant were pretty full. Although there was no wait time for a table. The seating options are typical cafe table and chairs. They were fully staffed to handle their patrons.

When I questioned it, I was told it is assumed that folk will pay by CC, so they automatically up charge by 3%. If, when you get to the register, and you pay by cash, they remove the 3%. Guess what? They don't. Stay aware. It's just a few cents, but it's YOUR few cents.. The food is great, service was great, wait time was within reason. Just check your bill price against the menu price.. Three stars only, because of this..
