Don't get me wrong 10/5/2011

I'm a Lafayette Coney Island guy myself, but American Coney Island is very good as well. I will say they have a larger menu, although I have only ordered coneys and fries, which is what I get at Lafayette too. I can also say that American is ""nicer"" on the inside and generally more decorous. You can't go wrong with Lafayette or American Coney Island. Both are Detroit Landmarks and serve world famous coney dogs. A lot of the time, I will get a coney at Lafyette and come right next door and order one at American. And no, I'm not a fat ass (LOL) they're both just ""that good."" Cheers! more

American Coney Island on Lafayette 2/18/2008

What, are you NUTS? This place ROCKS!!! I won't go ANYWHERE ELSE for my coneys with Greek Salad and/or coney fries. This is the best dog you can find, open at ANY TIME!! NO WONDER Emeril chose THIS coney island (and NOT the one next door) for his ""Best of"" list! Pros: Best coney in Detroit. Period. Cons: Cons? What ""cons"" could you POSSIBLY HAVE?!! ITS the finest coney and OPEN 24/7!! more

It's the real deal! 5/24/2005

My wife and I visited the American Coney Island for the first time and had a ball. The service was fantastic and the food was excellent. We were impressed by the cheerful decor and overall cleanliness. Next time we're in the ""D"", the American Coney will be our first stop. Pros: Great food, Fantastic Service, Fun Atmosphere more

Found out about these guys while watching Bobby Flay's show. This is the original coney island! So while I was in Detroit I had to check it out. Two ""Specials"" and I knew why they get the highest rating. Three thumbs up for the best Coney Pros: open 24 hours, attentive staff Cons: no yuengling bottles more
