We found this place on the way back to Texas. Dont let the exterior fool you, this place has the makings of a top diner with that old school feel to it. The hot dogs were great, the waitress was so fun, the atmosphere was great, and the overall price was affordable.

This place is always fantastic and the food is always spot on. Met a new fella this time by the name of Will and he was so much fun. The man had a fantastic sense of humor and was right on top of the job! If youre in the area stop and grab a bite to eat and be sure to say hey to Will 🤠

Plainly stated order, specifying details to the initial waitress that seated us at the downtown restaurant. New waitress brings our food. My companions was fine, mine was wrong. Not what I ordered. I very carefully specified what I wanted, and nope. Not what I got. I said that I didn’t want that, and to just take my order off the bill instead of remaking a new one since we needed to leave relatively soon. The waitress left to go to the register where the manager was, and they started to discuss how to fix the situation. Again, not bothering to listen to what I asked them to do. I reiterated that I wanted it just taken off. I didn’t want anything else. Just take it off the bill. Which the manager said she would do. I returned to my seat, my beverage glasses empty. The manager came over 2 more times to deliver and pick up the check, and refused to refill either my or my companions glass. My companions meal was fine, I left a 25% tip.

Well...that sucked. Service was fine, no issues there, but the food quality was lower than what Id imagine gas station food to be. The four of us ordered various chili dogs with onion rings. Not good. The onion rings are an extra $1.50 and you get 5 rings. If youre going to charge extra, I expect extra. The chili quality and was poor. Overall, it wasnt a great experience.

Today was exceptional! Ordered the meat omelet to go and what what I received was a generous size, delicious with the hashbrowns perfect. And quick. My only complaint would be the styrofoam container, but options arent exactly great out there.

Review №11

Double stack burger, chili cheese fries, and cookies and cream shake were all excellent. Service was good. However, burger was medium instead of medium rare, thus one star short of perfection. But that’s just me being picky; it was a great lunch and I will be back!

On every possible level, and then some, this place gets my full admiration.Our waitress, Paige, was a little chatty (pleasantly) though somewhat absent. Took care of us! Food was delicious, everything Ive gotten has been wonderful.The atmosphere is very fifties friendly, a diner for the win.

Consistently the slowest or nonexistent customer service in Grand Rapids. They may be understaffed is all I can gather, which I feel they should address. Myself and other customers around me had mutual feelings about the quality of the service here .

I had forgotten why its been a few years since I visited this establishment, today I was reminded why that reason was.Kid at counter takes a name for wife and I and said itll be 10 mins to be seated and then proceeds to sit a single person and then 2 people who walked in behind my wife and I.We will definitely not need another reminder.

I ordered a skillet meal. It was okay. It wasnt the best. Utensils wasnt given to me at first needed to wait for them while my food was in front of me. I had to ask for more coffee and jelly for the toast wasnt provided. I didnt ask. Wasnt asked how my food was. I realized they were a bit busy, however I would have enjoyed a bit of service with smile. I

The place was filthy. The foyer was disgusting. I didnt eat there. If the entrance, which is your first impression, is filthy, you know the kitchen is just as bad. If they dont care what the public sees, I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like that the public does not see. They hadnt been open that long when I arrived, and the front glass doors were disgusting. I didnt want to touch them.

Got the Muchies? Grand Coney Diner has something for everyone. The kids menu has a lot of fun activities to keep your kids busy, they have delicious breakfast, great gyros, hippie hash, smothered waffle fries, and fritos pies. The coney dogs with the original Koegel are some of the best Ive had anywhere in the country. Michigan street is open 24/7.

Grand Coney is sort of necessary to Grand Rapids. It fills the void of 24 hour diners. And its pretty good too. But, with no competition, their prices are higher than they should be in my opinion. For just a little bit more, you could be eating at a nice brewery or restaurant. That said, sometimes I (and many others) just crave diner food and Grand Coney delivers nicely. Ive never had a problem with their food, staff, or location. Just with their value.

Well yesterday after completing my review from this place it was a 5 stars but unfortunately Im going to have to deduct at least 3 stars maybe even 4 due to the fact that at 3 oclock in the morning I became very abruptly ill from eating your chili fries & hot dogs. Your food was the only thing that I eat all day long aside from a few snacking here and there but yes waking up at 3 oclock in the morning throwing up profusely over an hour is not exactly my ideal way have fun. I reached out to my girlfriend to find only that her as well also was abruptly ill. as she had the same exact thing that I did accept I didnt eat mashed potatoes. So now that is 2 people that have consumed through to from the place that now makes this a case of food borne illness outbreak. Local Health department will be contacted immediately .

Review №77

My eyes are immediately drawn to the unique style of dish that the onion rings arrive in. They are a cut above the plain white plate, and of an entirely different character than the plastic baskets lined with a modicum of greasy waxed paper. It is oblong and mysterious, not unlike an albino, open-faced banana peel.Within this peel, however, one finds a reasonable portion of crispy onion rings, rather than the pale and smooth flesh of a banana. The onion rings seem fairly consistently breaded, almost to a fault, as it suggests either a ruthlessly efficient mass production in a kitchen (which, I admit, is possible), or the far more likely fruit of a frozen bag.A ramekin of zesty sauce was delicately balanced within the oblong dish, striking me more as a bold artistic statement on the fragility of civilization than an optimal placement for sauce.My initial suspicion of frozen rings seem to have hit a snag, as the onion rings ooze with a robust taste of butter and grease, coming from the core of a well-cooked onion. While possible in frozen rings, it is exceedingly rare. The batter is well seasoned, and is cooked to a delicate crisp without being overdone.Though the zesty sauce was precarious, it delivered a solid complement to the flavors of the onion ring. All told, I have no major complaints about the taste, but it was missing a little bit of the wow factor necessary to take it to the next level.Typically, the taste and texture of an onion ring are intimately related, and understanding one provides crucial hints to the other. In this case, the maxim holds true. With a good volume of onion-derived grease pouring out in each bite, I could safely determine (and confirm with subsequent bites) that the onions were well cooked. That is to say, not too overdone as to be mushy, and not so underdone as to be raw.Likewise, the batter hits the right notes between a burnt husk and a soft circle of raw better. There is some slippage, but not much. As with taste, the texture didnt quite hit all the right notes, but it was singing the right song.Though the onion rings are solid in both taste and texture, the quantity leaves a bit to be desired for the price. At $5 for the mystery dish mounded with onion rings, they dont quite manage to rise to perfection, but its a good bite at a good price.

Typical Sunday morning breakfast at Coney...of course it was busy. Waitresses there are always great and they were crushing it, however, one cook in the kitchen- and hes fighting the good fight, but hes getting buried in the rush. Manager on duty is playing Candy Crush or texting on her phone the entire time, too busy to notice that its all hands on deck and customers are waiting upwards of 30 mins for their orders. This is inexcusable. I get it with the phone thing, but when the whole crew is jamming, help them the @#$%&* out! Ive had many years in the biz, so this was crunch time and you needed to jump in and catch them up- it might have taken like 15-20 mins...no big deal, and well- thats your job! It generates esprit de corps amongst the staff, makes paying customers happy, and that builds into a more positive experience and leads to better tips too. Everybody wins...get off your damned phone for all those obvious reasons!
