“I cannot say enough about this amazing place. The food was amazing cooked with perfection and flavors that were amazing. we happened on the restaurant on a whim and even though it is an hour+ drive we will be returning at least every couple months.“

“Great service, food and atmosphere.“

“This place is fantastic! My husband and I love going there when we have the chance. The food is great and the prices are reasonable. Highly recommend!“

“Service was great! Very nice atmosphere, and classy without being stuffy. Our food was overall very good, our omelette could have used a bit of seasoning, and something to brighten it up a bit, but that could be a matter of preference. I would definitely recommend eating here, the positives were way more notable than any negatives.“

“The service, the food, the prices, the variety, the cleanliness, and the attention is ALL GREAT !!!“

“I had the chicken wings and garlic aloi fries. The wings was really good, big wings and had a lot of sauce on them. It's 12 for 20 which to me kinda expensive. The fries was disappointed in 7 dollars for some fries that's half of them was soggy. There was little cheese on it. The ones that was cooked was okay. I wouldn't highly recommend it but I would give it another try if different cooks was working. Saw one guy had to give his wings back before me because they was under cooked.“

“I can't recommend the Sunrise Cafe enough. Stopped in on a whim for breakfast while on a family adventure and everyone left happy and full. The menu is extensive and everything was freshly made and very yummy. But what really put it over the top was the service! From the greeting at the door, to the prompt attention, and one of the best servers ever! 10 out of 10! We will be back!“

“Food was good and service was acceptable (nothing special) but you had a group of 5 guys leave your restaurant last night somewhat bewildered after your waitress Katarina made it quite clear she was not happy with the 20% tip we gave her. Apparently, our stay of about 3 hours eating and drinking was excessive. We may not be back.“

“Our go to spot for the soups n salads...Staff is cool and takes care of you...Just a cool little spot for some home cooking....“

“I had not been to a Beefcarver since I was a kid to the location on 8 mile. Stopped in today to the Woodward location. Food was good, the atmosphere is very nostalgic (I loved it), and the staff was amazing. The gentleman waiting on us was very friendly and very on top of things! We will be back.“

“Best restaurant around with the great food! Breakfast is my favorite there!“

“We were instantly greeted and seated. Our server Robby was awesome. The entire staff was friendly. Chef Johnny is very talented and friendly. I love that he greets all guest and will even bring your food out himself. For starters we had the shrimp and crab cakes. They were crispy on the outside and melted in your mouth. The surprise with these was that there was whole shrimp inside. We loved it. The sauce on top was just the right amount. The salmon with saffron rice, coconut curry sauce and green apple slaw was the best salmon I've had in a while. The pairing was new for me but it worked. The salmon was juicy and perfectly cooked. When paired with everything on my plate it was like fireworks. Everything popped and was amazing. My husband had the beef strudel. Now he was thinking it was gonna be like a beef wellington but no. When he put his fork into the perfectly crispy flaky crust and into the most tender beef either of us have ever had, OMG. With the first bite all he could do was say "WOW"(sorry about how loud he was). The flavors of that plate were incredible. The blueberry cheesecake was the icing on the cake. It was perfect. Sweet but not too sweet and the smear of lemon sauce on the side elevated the flavors. The drinks. I had the rainforest and my husband had the Johnny Manhattan. When we saw how small the glasses were we were definitely worried. That feeling quickly faded with the first sip. The drinks may be small but they are strong and delicious. We had to pace ourselves with those. Overall, I give this place a 10/10 and will definitely be back again soon. Thank you to everyone there for a great time and for great service.“

“WE LOVE the homemade freshness of your salads! Dr. Trupp especially likes his veggies! Thanks for making everything fresh with healthy options!“

“It's always good. My only critique is that they only have splenda as a sugar substitute. Equal is my preferred.“

“Excellent food as always and the service is A-1“

“I had the most amazing experience!! The food is 10/10. But let me tell you about Jordan, I showed him a recipe for a drink that I had in Rome and he absolutely recreated it! The food is absolutely phenomenal, the aesthetic is beautiful. The staff is friendly and welcoming. Everything about this experience was amazing! We will continue to visit ❤️“

“Hey What up Detroit, my neighborhood Nicki D’s is straight the best hands down. No dirty or nasty looking employees or facility. The food is fresh and good, did I say it’s clean!!’ Plus it’s a family owned restaurant. I know yall still love Coney’s we’ll go to Nicki D’s on Grandriver across the street from that beautiful new Credit Union. Holla!“

“One of the best burgers I've had in a long time. The staff was extremely polite and efficient. Food came very quickly after ordering. All around great experience, men's bathroom could use a little attention but it wasn't grody or anything just cramped.“

“Barrel House has become our go-to place to hang out and eat. Their food is delicious, the drinks are great, and the staff are all amazing!“

“Beppé is a solid choice, especially for a date night. The spot is small but very clean, and the service was great, and everyone is super nice. I really enjoyed the burger; it was packed with flavor and is something I'd definitely come back for. The eggplant croquettes were also very good, and I'd order them again without hesitation. The ricotta cavatelli was a standout pasta dish, and their fries with aioli were absolutely amazing—they alone made the meal!“

“Great drinks and night scene. Had a lot of fun their last night.“

“I moved here in March and I’m still working on finding my new local go to spots. It’s my first time here and this is going to be my #1 go to diner/Coney Island.
It’s a family run business and it’s obvious that they work hard to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The waitresses are genuinely kind and you can tell they care about their customer.

The food was really good! It came out quick, the portions were generous, and if you like hash browns you won’t be sorry!! I’m a big coffee gal and my coffee was never empty, always hot, and as a VERY rare treat, the coffee is actually really good.

Lastly, the restaurant is clean and well maintained. It is obvious they take pride in what they do and are dedicated to making a great experience.

Support your local businesses and try this Coney Island! You won’t be disappointed!

Edit: my waitress’s name was Cathy. She offered to give me a coffee to go and I didn’t even ask 🥹“

“State Fair Coney Island at the corner of John R and 8 Mile in Hazel Park is one of those rare gems that feels like home the moment you walk in. It’s a true family-run spot where the staff greet you like you’re part of their own family—niece, nephew, sister, or brother. That warmth isn’t just in the service, it’s in the food too. You can taste the love they put into every dish.

My go-to recommendations? Definitely the original coney dog—it’s unbeatable—or the chicken finger pita, which is always fresh and flavorful. But honestly, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu. Every option is made with care, and always leaves you full and happy.

If you’re looking for a place where great food and genuine hospitality meet, this is it. I’ll always recommend State Fair Coney Island to anyone in the area!“

“Super friendly service, food had an amazing temperature and super tasty. I must say that they marinated chicken was juicy and delicious.“

“Decided today that as much as we enjoy lunches and dinners at Bill's, I have finally become overwhelmed by the Excessive Noise level, that one must put up with while trying to enjoy the food and conversation with Friends. After complaining, on numerous occasions, We have decided to remove Bill's from among our favorites list.“

“Everything here is…incredible!Everytime I come here,I order hotdogs that taste amazing and food for my family.My grandpa says they’re salad is amazing and their food is magnificent and they’re very nice people.Go to your nearest Jimmy’s Coney Grill!“

“You have to try the carrot cake waffles 🤤 They were soo good. I coipled mime with the steak bites and it waa perfect. Honesty our waitress was great. She had really good energy and she was attentive as well. It gives a bar atmosphere with the sports playing. You could with your friends for a birthday dinner/ brunch or you could go solo to catch a game.“

“Noni’s HAD become the go to spot for me because I work in the area. After today, I will find another dining spot. It is not that I am so thin skinned, in today’s economy, service providers must “earn” my loyalty and patronage. Normally I carry out but today I chose to fine in. You seat yourself do I was promptly seated. The waitress took a moment to come to the table and the restaurant was only partially occupied. It took forever for her to retrieve our drinks and return to the table with them. We waited a moment to order and the food , a very simple order, fries and wings took row seemed like forever. After that, we did not hear from her again until she brought the check. Mind you, she refilled the drinks for a table right next to ours 3 times. Ok, so I asked for a refill of our drinks to go. Two of them, children’s drinks were already in styrofoam cups. She returned with a large styrofoam cup and stated she couldn’t refill the kids cups to go, because there was a limit. Because of the disappointed look on their faces, I reminded her that this would be the first refill. What upset me was that she wanted to argue with me. I politely said whatever lady. She wanted to keep it going so I obliged her and reminded her that in a service industry it behooves her to not argue with customers and just stop talking so much! She then attempted to embarrass me by yelling out in the dining room, y’all this lady mad cause I won’t give her lemonade to go. I was going to, but not now.” I responded with “I was going to tip you, but not now.” Before you go there, I do know , understand, and practice two wrongs don’t make a right. Then there are times you stand on principle. All that to say, I won’t be returning!“

“Highly recommend! Food and Service are GREAT!!“

“Been going there for several years. I like the service. No fooling around no loud talking, laughing out loud, just taking care of business.It’s quiet, professional service, everybody working, and most of the time they got my eggs just like I like them. can’t say anything negative about omega, and I always run into Brenda sitting right on the end at the counter. They know who Brenda is, but you guys might not. I’ll give omega 10 stars.“

“Great food friendly staff!!“

“Beautiful family restaurant with a very friendly staff. My favorite place 💞“

“Stackerz in Southfield 🔥🔥🔥🔥 love this place so much!! They know my son & I name as well as our order. Always so kind, sweet and attentive. Best breakfast on the west side for real!! Rhonda & Vicky are the literal best ever!!!“

“Delicious! Make your own salad was wonderful with lots of good ingredients.“

“My mom and I went here for breakfast and it was delish! She had a special (country fried steak and eggs) and I went with a veggie omelette (replacing hash browns & toast for a biscuit with gravy). The service is also top-notch. Server was very accommodating with my mom's needs ❤️“

“CK Diggs is an absolute gem near downtown Rochester! The food was amazing — everything we ordered was full of flavor and perfectly cooked. We tried the boneless wings, nachos, quesadillas, Reuben sandwich, Southwest pasta, Cajun steak strips, pretzel bites, and Beijing beef — and every single dish was delicious.

The service was just as impressive — friendly, attentive, and fast. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a great spot for a casual night out or a relaxed dinner with friends.

The Cookie Monster and carrot was was beyond delicious.

If you’re looking for great food, great service, and a fun atmosphere close to downtown, CK Diggs is definitely worth checking out!“

“Great little local Coney Island that offered up incredibly friendly and welcoming service along with Hardy portions, great flavor and a feeling of being at home.

This was probably one of the most down-home and enjoyable breakfast experiences I had with my family in a very long time. Thank you Lons on 6 Mile,
Especially our server. That young lady made us feel more welcome and at home than I had felted a long time at any restaurant.“

“This is a hidden gem, great choice of food, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The ladies serving at the bar are amazing, I always leave looking forward to my next visit.“

“Everything is fresh!! Family owned!!“
