Lola’s Coney Island

Great burghers, the chicago hot-dog is amaizing, fries are also realy good and they have some homemade sos that’s taste like heaven with fries or something else, if I remember correct the sos name is “layola”Great place! Friendly stuff and very clean inside!

I’m always grateful for vegan options and was pleasantly surprised that a restaurant on the West Side had options. I had the Chicago style vegan dog which I believe they used Beyond Sausage. I like that she gave me the option to have the dog fried. Definitely a hit!

I recently catered in Lola’s Coney for a surprise for husband Detroit-born husband. Having been to Lola’s before, my husband and I knew that their coney dogs were authentic Detroit coney! The team was so easy to work with and super sensitive to my need to text instead of call (due to the surprise factor) and helped walk me through how many coney dogs they recommended I order for the size of the party. Leading up to and on the day of the party, they were in constant contact, confirming my order and then communicating arrival time. They were SO kind to wait a few extra minutes after the surprise was over for me to run out and grab the food! (Surprise party timelines never go quite as planned). The big kicker was as the food was being handed off to me, they shared that they had included some Better Made chips because they knew it was a birthday party and that the birthday boy was from Detroit. When I got inside I realized they had provided me TWO boxes with so many different flavors of Better Made. The food was a hit and we turned many people into coney dog lovers as they’d never sampled the delicious Detroit treat before. I have to say the most rewarding part of the party was hearing all of the Detroit born family members rave about the authenticity of the coneys for this Detroit themed birthday.If you are from Detroit, or have ever eaten a coney dog in Detroit, you gotta make your way to Lola’s. Their food is amazing.If you’re ever hosting a party - highly recommend Lola’s. Their customer service was excellent, super helpful as I shared my budget and guest list regarding what I would need, and everything came ready to go and was a big hit!

Exactly what we were looking for when we drove from the twin cities to Chicago. Looking for a true Chicago hot dog experience. The young lady was so nice that she let me back my truck and trailer and take up the whole parking lot while my wife and I waited for our food. The homemade touch is great. We could not decide what dog to try so.Starting with cheesy bacon, fries and onion rings with an amazing dipping sauce. For a choice of hot dogs, we went with the Chicago dog, (nice snap and fresh fixings)of course. The New York dog and we tried the Detroit dog ( nice spice to the chili!). All were great. Thank you ladies for a wonderful experience. I apologize for the poor quality of the photos. They don't do justice.

The Chicago style dogs are delicious! Super friendly staff and neat seating outside and inside.Let's not forget lobster roll Fridays!!!

Great neighborhood spot. The Chicago and Detroit dogs are both awesome and the Greek salad is legit. Plus the Faygo and Vernors are always stocked.

I finally made my way to Lola's Coney Island after passing by for months, and let me tell you, it was well worth the wait. Having been to Detroit multiple times, I consider myself somewhat of a connoisseur when it comes to Coney Dogs, and Lola's did not disappoint.While the chili wasn't an exact match to what I've had in Detroit, it came impressively close. But let's be clear, I'm not complaining in the slightest. In my humble opinion (and to my Detroit friends, please don't come for me), a Coney Dog is essentially a chili cheese dog. I've had this debate countless times, but my stance remains firm.I opted for takeout and added a side of cheese-drenched fries to my order. The fries were a revelation - crisp, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. The cheese had a unique blend of seasonings that elevated it beyond the ordinary. It was a delightful departure from your standard cheese.The restaurant itself exudes a cozy, neighborhood joint vibe and is impeccably clean. It's the kind of place that instantly makes you feel at home.I can say with certainty that I'll be returning for my Coney Dog fix. Having never come across a spot in Chicago that serves up these Detroit delicacies, Lola's has now become my go-to. A special shoutout to the friendly and pleasant staff member who took my order - it added an extra layer of warmth to the experience.For my fellow Detroiters living in Chicago, if you're on the hunt for an authentic Coney Dog, look no further than Lola's. You won't be disappointed.

The best polish sausage and onion rings! Their grilled onions on the polish were diced and grilled beautifully! The sauce that comes with the onion rings was fabulous.It was so good I forgot to take pictures before I started!
