We discovered this restaurant in July after finding everything in Ferndale, Royal Oak, Birmingham, Hazel Park, Berkeley, Troy and Madison Heights closed by 9pm on a Sunday Evening. The sidewalks roll up now days after 9pm in the Detroit Northern Suburbs!
This Coney Island is frequented by the Royal Oak, Madison Heights and Troy Police, EMS and numerous neighborhood regulars. The menu is exceptional: 24 hour choice of breakfast, lunch OR dinner. All entrées are always superbly cooked to perfection. Portions are extremely generous and very reasonably priced.
The Cooks are friendly AND great---I want my son to learn to cook here! Most waitresses are extremely friendly, prompt and helpful. If you show up again they remember you and greet you accordingly remembering your favorite beverages, etc.
This family owned business goes out of it's way to make your visit superb and to cater to repeat business. The restaurant is frequented by families, dating couples, singles of all religions and nationalities. You can tell other patrons seek out the great homecooked food on a regular basis.The local Marriott, Hilton and other hotel patrons and staff also frequent this restaurant on a regular basis and openly say this is THE best, most reasonably priced family restaurant in the area. They go out of their way to return on their days off with their families.
My son loves the omelets, scrambled eggs, pancakes, sausage, bacon, Gyros plate, chicken noodle soup, loose hamburgers, fish and shrimp dinner (which serves 2!)homemade rice pudding and iced cream sundaes.
My favorites are the Greek salad, Gyros plate, Greek rice, Gyros omelet, loose hamburgers, homemade onion rings, fish dinner, shrimp and seafood dinner, chicken dinner, Reuben sandwiches, club sandwiches, chicken salad and homemade rice pudding.
Due to their exceptional cooking and service, quality ingredients, cheap prices we have been back almost once a day for the past 10 days...we still have many items we want to try. The shrimp and fish dinner served with salad or soup choice of rice, mashed potato's, hash browns, etc, and choice of rice pudding or ice cream is priced at $6.80!
If you want something different search out New York Red Hots Coney Island (NYRHCI)24 hours a day anytime! NYRHCI is located next to a Mc Donald's, and Applebee's and around the corner from Bennigan's they beat any of their prices hand down with loose hamburgers for $2.40!
The restaurant can reached from I-75, 14 Mile Road Exit and is found next to the gas station on the SW corner of 14 Mile Road at Stephenson (Stephenson is 1 light west of I-75 on 14 Mile Road).
NYRHCI also offers a complete take out menu available at the cash register of all menu items! This is a wonderful NY style family owned restaurant that deserves it's strong repeat business. A truly great find!
Note: this review has been read and approved by my 13 year old son. NYRHCI has won over a Katy, TX picky teenager!
