A Detroit Original
The Coney Island Joy Road counts on
In Detroit, a great Coney Island is more than a restaurant — it's a neighborhood institution, and L. George's has been one on Joy Road since 1958. Come on in any time, day or night, and you'll find the classics done right: snappy grilled coneys smothered in chili, mustard and onions, plates of eggs and hash browns, juicy burgers, and Greek favorites that round out the menu.
We're open 24 hours, every day, so whether it's a sunrise breakfast, a quick lunch, or a late-night bite, the grill's always on. That's the Coney Island way.

Around the Clock
The grill never sleeps
There's something special about a 24-hour diner. It's there for the early-shift workers and the night owls, the families on a Saturday morning and the friends grabbing a late bite after a long night. At L. George's, you'll always find a warm plate, a hot cup of coffee, and the kind of honest, no-fuss cooking that has kept Detroiters coming back for over six decades.
