Great food and people. The food is fresh and service is always friendly. We are big fans of their Greek Chicken Salad.

Food was average good. Price was higher than expected for a coney lunch experience. Wait staff not attentive to group drinks emptying and time constraints.

I was so excited to find this place! It is close to home and the service is impeccable. The restaurant has a homey feel with beautiful decor. The restaurant had plenty of booths which a must. Parking was easy and there are plenty of spots available when we arrived. My husband ordered the corn beef hash as a side and the chicken and waffles. I ordered an omelette and a side order of pancakes. Everything was absolutely delicious. The portions were generous and we had plenty to take home. The diner had a homey feel. I think we found our regular breakfast place.

this place is great! Really good food and friendly fast service! They also have a few tables outside, which I appreciate! I just wish they would add some more plant-based menu items such as an impossible burger option, perhaps some avocado toast and an egg substitute like Just Egg!

We hadn't been here since the restaurant changed hands a few years ago. I am sorry that we took so long to return and check this place out. The current owners completely redecorated what used to be a tired "American Diner" and turned it into a modern and extremely clean upscale family restaurant. This place is so much more than the classic "Michigan Coney" restaurant. The service was the friendliest and most attentive of any family restaurant that we've ever experienced. Unlike our current "regular" breakfast place, the music level was appropriate for its role as background music. Our regular place (which shall remain unnamed) usually plays good "oldies style" music but is quite loud and has more of a concert feel to it making conversation and concentration on the daily newspaper difficult. The breakfast potatoes at this place are still the sliced "American fries" style which we really enjoy over the often tasteless and undercooked "hash browns" served at so many other places. Our breakfast skillet dishes were very good. The eggs were cooked perfectly and the coffee was hot and strong! We will definitely be back and will probably make this our regular "go to" breakfast restaurant replacing another old standby down the street which we've been frequenting for so many years. Sometimes it pays to get out of your rut and try new places or revisit ones that have changed hands.

Great service, the staff and the owner were very friendly and welcoming. I had a mega gyro with no pita (GF) and as a gyro connoisseur, this place has the best, authentic gyro meat. The interior is beautiful with nice Greek accents and paintings. I highly recommend Alpha Koney Island. Sincerely and from FL, Dave Toman

I was craving chili cheese fries and had heard good things about Alpha Koney Island so after my haircut up the street I placed a carryout order through Grubhub. It was a quick turnaround and within minutes my order was ready. I came in and had to wait quite a bit to have anyone acknowledge me but once they did they were very nice. I grabbed my hot dogs, coneys, fries etc from the front counter and got in the car. I checked to make sure I had everything and I was glad I did because they had forgotten the rice pudding I had also ordered for my husband. I went back and it took a few minutes again for someone to help me. It then took another few minutes for them to bring me my pudding but they individually package the pudding vs. pre packaging it beforehand so that's why it took a minute. That was nice cos you could tell it was made in house. The fries and dogs were both great. A little soggy by the time I got home because of the extra pudding wait but unless you're eating there when your plate comes right out from the kitchen you're not gonna get super crispy fries with your chili cheese toppings. Small price to pay for a delicious plate of (awful for you but so delicious) goodness. The dining room is nice and spacious and very clean. I'd be curious to pop in for breakfast some time since that seems to be another Yelper favorite here.

Came to this place before when it was classic cup. Alpha is the new place now nice change. Ordered the gyro with my son and we got a side of onion rings to share. These onion rings are fantastic made all different sizes ,great thick custard batter & very crunchy! If you have a craving for some super awesome onion rings this is definitely the best place in town as I've tried them all. Also they have Saginaki which is the flaming cheese. I always find that so entertaining!

We showed up right when they opened. The restaurant was clean and had a warm environment. They were playing the fake fireplace on the TVs The server was friendly and keep our coffee cups full. The coffee was super hot and pretty good. Since we were there first people through the doors our food came out quickly. It was hot and fresh. I really enjoyed my blueberry pancakes. They were loaded with juicy blueberries. The edges of the pancakes were a golden crispy delight. The omelette was a decent size but really greasy. For the price I would probably pick something different the next time. I would come back.
