Lafayette Coney Island

Simply the best. Whether you are in Downtown Detroit for a Tigers, Red Wings or Lions game, or at the Auto Show or whatever, you have to stop at Lafayette Coney Island. They do coney dogs and they do it better than anybody else. They're not on the Food Network and Travel Channel all the time for no reason. The place is a Detroit Landmark. People on here are complaining about the decor? Dude, it's an old place that has character! The waiters aren't the friendliest guys in the world but that is the farthest thing from my mind when I'm there. It's all about the coney dogs man. World leaders eat coney dogs at this place. Famous athletes make it a point to eat here. You come in, order your food and drink and it's at your table in a few minutes, 5 minutes at most if it's PACKED. Me, personally, I order a coke, coney with everything and a slice of apple pie every time. It gets better every time I go there, which is basically whenever I'm downtown. Do yourself a favor and go there. Order a coney or two with everything. If you didn't know, these hot dogs are to be eaten with a fork because they're loaded with chili. And when I say chili, I mean the best coney dog chili in the world.…

Lafayette Coney Island. Absolutely the best coney in Detroit. The sealer is the chili, get a good whiff and you nose will involuntarily quiver in anticipation. I can't be in the area without getting a dog. Love when I see Lafayette full of Red Wing fans. Bar none this is the best!…
