Food was good, but not excellent. Many ways to improve the food, but the prices would go up. Good for the price. The service was outstanding; couldn't have been better for us. The atmosphere was normal, and new and updated. It could have been cleaner. This was not because of a staffing issue. They need to wipe things down with Dawn more often. The menu is huge, so plenty of options. Very kid friendly. I would go back, but I would not be excited. Again, GOOD FOR THE PRICE (especially for Downtown Grand Rapids)..Parking: If you can find a spot on the street. Paid parking in a ramp.Kid-friendliness: They do have a kids menu.
Best food and service this side of the country all staff here is amazing great teamwork and amazing real food. Good job to the entire staff!!!

It was a late Thursday morning stop for my wife and I. There were maybe five tables occupied and 2-3 waitstaff at the counter. We sat for 10 minutes In a nearly empty coney island without any form of greeting, no silverware, no drinks, no nothing. Two gentlemen came in and sat at the counter, they were greeted, given silverware, and asked drink orders. That's when we got up and left. For us, I'd never go back or recommend even for a coney.

Service was great!! but food is really lacking. We shared a Reuben and Chili cheese fries - meat on sandwich was so over cooked it became tough and leathery, the 'swiss cheese' was more of a processed white american cheese and the sandwich arrived with out thousand island dressing. It was a very sad Reuben?. Chili cheese Fries might of been even worse - if that's possible . Chili and cheese left much to be desired, pretty sure they were from a pouch of some sort. Fries were mushy, even the ones without chili or cheese on them and they had absolutely no seasoning. I really hate to be so negative but the food was just bad.

We are a Greek family and love the Greek dishes that Leo's Coney Island offers. We have dined there frequently, often bring friends. The food is always good and the service fantastic. That being said; however, we have decided not to dine there any longer during the cold months, as the owner chooses to keep the dining room quite frigid.
We heat our home at 68 degrees and are comfortable at that temp. We have tried mutliptle visits to Leo's Coney Island this winter...and each time the dining room has always been uncomfortablly chilly. When we pay to go out to eat, dining with our winter coats on and still being cold is not a relaxing or enjoyable dining experience.
We gave it another try last night visiting around 5:30pm (hoping the furnace was turned up). The dining area was extremely C-O-L-D! This could be why there were not many customers there? We asked the waitress if the heat could be turned up, and she replied, "No, the only person allowed to adjust the temperature is the owner, and he is not here".
NOTE to Owner: Saving money by turning down the heat in the cold of winter does not provide a pleasant dining experience for your customers and certainly cannot be good for your business! So...we'll see you in the summer?....

I went here for lunch after a meeting with 5 other people. When we got there, there was one other table. We ordered and waiting 45 minutes before the server came to tell us they ran out of an ingredient for one of my coworkers meals, so she ordered something else. Another 25 minutes and the food finally came out. I wouldn't go there again for the service and the food was mid, but the atmosphere was nice and centrally located. The prices seemed reasonable and the portions were big.

Came here, ordered breakfast foods in the evening as well as some Greek food! The gyro was... odd... the gyro meat clearly was not shaved and maybe was frozen or something is my guess? Cold in the middle.... the lemon chicken rice soup was cold. Our breakfast orders came wrong. When we ordered saganaki she almost couldn't light it but really the main struggle was her not bringing the side pita to accompany it for another 15 minutes. She really wasn't a great server but she was nice enough, very sweet and friendly, just like... bringing cold food and forgetting platters and stuff... I've been to other Leo's coney and had amazing service and food. This paled in comparison. Also the scrambled eggs were not great either.

First off - excellent customer service during a busy Sunday early lunch, attentive wait staff! As a former Detroiter the only complaint was the dog on the coney lacked the snap that is a hallmark of Detroit style coneys, and the fries requested well done on one order out of three were done medium like the others.The chile sauce and other parts of the order were spot on.

Mediocre at best. Hot dogs were gross. Just boiled and the bowl of chili is gross. It's the same chili placed on their hotdogs. Club gyro was bland and fries were over cooked.
