Coney Island

I got locked out of my car in their parking lot so I thought, I’LL EAT. I otherwise would never have gone in. I love hot dogs, but I can just make them at home or go to Sonics. There were only two other people there and the food area was a bit shady. The cook/​server was not especially friendly and looked tired and overworked or lazy (?) I was surprised that it was pretty good. It was neat given the type of food. I had a coney dog and fries. The fries were really pretty good! Like McDonald’s fries. I wouldn’t mind going back if I want a sodium-​fat-​coma.

pretty average all around. we had the chili dog with everything, and well it was a commodity hot dog with canned chili or what tasted like canned chili, pretty average at best. The fries were simple and done well. The gyro with everything was good but really not anything special and a bit stingy on the sauce, but to their credit they offered more when asked. The vegetarian gyro was good too, again not anything special. So if your close and your hungry they fit the bill, prices are reasonable and the service was very good. So worth a try but I will explore other options next time.

While not as good as the downtown location, it is still a great chili dog and I will return when I am in the area. It is only second to the downtown location in Kalamazoo.

Good hotdogs, and fast service. My 7 year daughter said she wasn’t hun
gry so I ordered for my self. After we sat down she ate all my food. I would come back again.

gyros, hot dogs, fries and Greek salads. My husband is always trying to find little gems in our lives that bring a bit of the flavors, sounds and taste of home for me to feel less home sick not that it helps or replaces the feelings of being away from my family but what it does is show how caring he can be. I oddly miss those silly grilled hotdogs on the hotdog carts and when my husband founds this place I was sold. It’s even better it reminds me of the foods I ate when I was in High school I lived in East York for a while then moved but finished high school by traveling and you know this place is really close to the type of foods that I grew up on.

As one of 2 places in Kalamazoo to get a chicago style or coney hot dog I’m just not getting all the hype. Each time I’ve been there they have been out of some key ingredient or food. Once it was their «famous» chili sauce and this past time it was fries. I know things happen and things run out but definitely a turn off for me.

Great Coney Dogs! The Burgers and gyros are really good too! The place has been around since 1915 and I can see why. It’s a great family run business and the staff is super friendly.

Coney Island Dogs that are the best, must order the cheese fries and a root beer in a frosted mug. You can not go wrong with a burger or gyro either.
Go to the store downtown Kalamazoo, which is closed on Sunday. They do take credit cards.

Over the past few months since I was there last, they have changed the chili dog sauce and it tastes nothing like it use to. It was actually awful! I was raised here in Kalamazoo with those chili dogs since 1959 and I always said that there was something in the chili that made it stand out but now? One bite was enough for me to know that it wasn’t the original recipe

Perfect gyros, tasty hot dogs, yummy fries.
(A brief note for non-​Michiganders: A Coney Island hot dog is a Michigan-​style chili dog, served with onions and mustard. They have nothing to do with the neighborhood in Brooklyn.)
This place does a perfectly respectable coney dog. They’ve recently added a «New York dog» to the menu, with sauteed onion, sauerkraut, and mustard, and it’s pretty darn tasty, too.
The gyros here are the ones against which I judge all others. They’re careful to let the meat get a nice crispy, sizzly finish on the spit before carving it. Topped with tzatziki, tomato, and a generous helping of onions, they leave you with a kickin’ case of onion breath, in the best way possible.
I’ve had their Greek salads a few times, and found them surprisingly tasty and fresh for a hot dog joint.
If you’re craving fast food, skip the drive-​thru chain places and stop by here for some authentic Michigan grub.

Best gyros ever! Cash only.
