| - I've been here at least 10 times now. I try to bring someone new every time. CONSISTENTLY, this food is excellent. What blows my mind more than anything else about Detroit Coney is the staff. From the big chief to the crew that cooks the food. Everyone is wonderful and treats you like family. I've never felt that an employee feels like an "employee" I think they feel like they are part of something bigger. As a business owner myself, I try to make my employees feel the same way. They are bigger than just one of my employees, they are part of this business.......
The man in charge treats everyone like he's known them for years. Whether he genuinely remembers me and my family when we walk in those doors, he sure makes us feel like we're a long distant family member that he hasn't seen in years. It feels good to walk into an establishment and get that kind of attention. He's upfront, honest and OPEN to any and all suggestions. He wants nothing more than the spirit of Michigan to creep into this desert town.
As for naysayers who may bitch that this establishment isn't the real deal, that it doesn't serve breakfast, that the prices are higher here than in Michigan.... use some common sense! It's a small place. All roads that lead to Phoenix have signs that say "steep grades" To a truck driver, that means higher price of delivery. To a business owner, that means, cost of goods go up. Ever wonder why huge bands NEVER play Arizona? This restaurant is practically importing 50% of it's menu to give his customers the food they are unable to get ANYWHERE else in this state. It's going to cost more. As a business owner, I wrap my brain around their price on goods and salary vs profit.
Detroit Coney Grill I would imagine is just a stepping stone to a bigger picture. Something tells me one day Arizona will get the full blown Coney it deserves and it's all thanks to Detroit Coney Grill. If I was a millionaire, I'd beg DCG to let me invest.
