    a dessert with whipped cream and cinnamon sprinkles
    Rachel D.

    I've been going to George's on occasions for many years. Also called Leon's, the restaurant is known for its all you can eat soup bar. Everyday they have about 5 soups available to choose from. One of my favorites is their potato soup. Thick and full of chunk of potatoes. George's is a home town favorite for many because of the home style cooked meals, daily lunch and dinner specials, fair prices, and good service. A couple of my favorite meals are broasted chicken and the hot turkey sandwich with mashed potatoes. The turkey is large think pieces of white meat. This is what I had today during my visit. Yum! When I visit George's, I also like to end my meal with a bowl of rice pudding. Warmed up and topped with cinnamon and whipped cream. If you are looking for a small diner atmosphere, George's is a good place to visit. I've always been satisfied.

    This place is awesome! Huge portions, delicious food, plenty of space for a big group. It really has family dining when you come to George's. All the staff is super friendly and the food comes out quick. As a dressing man they have great dressings as well the ranch and thousand Island was delicious. Overall 10 out of 10 very happy with this place highly suggest it. I got the farmers omelette and it was awesome. But the Reuben was outstanding!

    Take out brekky =)

    Its been almost 20 years since I've eaten here. Back when it was still Leon's. As a long time 3rd-shifter, I've become a breakfast connoisseur. Figure I'd try this place out again, see if it's how I remembered. Got a breakfast special and a side of biscuits and gravy. All the breakfast meats were good. Eggs and hash browns were cooked well. The biscuits and gravy weren't too awesome, but I've had worse. My wife had a breakfast wrap that she said was okay. So as far as breakfast goes it's your typical diner fare. Not great, not bad, but good! I'd definitely come back.

    I've been to Leon's several times through the years. There are multiple locations scattered across south east Michigan. This is your standard fare family diner type place, the breakfast is good and on weekends they offer a breakfast bar. They always have lunch specials and most come with the daily all you can eat soup bar they generally offer at least four different soups. Today was minestrone, beef barley, cream of potato and chicken noodle. I really like some of their soups, others just okay. I know on Monday they have a canadian cheese which is wonderful. Today I tried the Minestrone it was decent very filling. I ordered the hot roast beef sandwich, however it was off today. The meat tasted odd; not edible. I was pretty full from the soup and the hostess took it off my bill which was nice since my server didn't offer to. My son typical hot dog and fries comes with a drink and ice cream. I also got a cheeseburger to go for my teenager which also came with soup and he really seemed to enjoy it. The service just okay however our server did a okay job she was busy and did her best. The hostess was very nice like noted earlier. I think maybe today might have just been an off day and compared to other locations this one is not my favorite. I will say they are very reasonable and I would go back.

    Got the meatloaf i dont recommend getting it. It was by far the grossing thing i have eaten looked like it came on of a can

    Two egg special is a deal!

    Family friendly dining at a decent price. Standard coney island menu with an amazing soup bar. Almost everything you order comes with an all you can eat soup option and I highly suggest you make as many trips as you can. The stuffed pepper soup and chicken noodle is the best in town. The staff is on a first name basis with my family and is always up for a friendly conversation.

    This place has the BEST soup! Especially the chicken noodle! Yum! The greatest employees and for the amount of good, quick food....priced great! Love this place!

    Leon's is decent food at a great price. The service is fast but not necessarily friendly. The food tastes fresh and is prepared well.

    We live right down the street and wanted to try! It blew our minds, I had the fiesta tacos and…read morefiancé had the white bbq slider. Amazing to say the least, looked like not a lot of food but we are both so full with food left over! The restaurant itself is super cute and everyone is extremely friendly.

    Would've been 4/5 stars if the front-of-house didn't get in its own way. We had a reservation and…read morestill waited 30-40 minutes, and I walked past whole empty sections on my way to the bathroom, so I don't know what the holdup was. The confirmation text didn't come through until we were already inside, which might be bad reception, but it almost cost us the table. Then they sat us right across from the back kitchen entrance. Banging, yelling, and an open doorway into the kitchen. Off-putting, especially with better seating clearly open. The food keeps the rating up. I did not expect a wings place, but the smoked wings were my favorite, right amount of crispy with good smoke. The sauce list is long and I couldn't pick a favorite. The ranch tasted house-made and it was amazing. The chikin soho was the other standout. Honey ginger glaze, chili dijon slaw, and pickles that all work together. Misses: the brisket nachos needed fresh guac and actual brisket, since there was barely any. The 6 cheese mac was fine but not worth ordering again. Prices were right for what it is, a bistro concept. It's in Wayne, which surprised me since I didn't know spots like this existed out here. Wide enough menu that I'll be back. Next time I'm speaking up about the seating.

If they dont have one ready sometimes theyll let you pick one thats just been finished but not cleaned and theyll clean it off as you sit down kinda thing. The vibe isnt anything fancy, basic diner chairs/rubbery plastic seats that have seen better days. But the coffee is always hot, and they keep bringing it by. The owner herself walks around chatting and pouring the coffee, shes this short European (maybe) woman with a bit of an accent but she's incredibly sweet! Her daughter also works there with her husband which i find so sweet. As i said the coffee is always hot, the food is always fresh and doesn't take long even on a busy morning with a packed restaurant! I dont know how they keep up sometimes but they do! If you like fish, go on a Friday night for fish fry and you wont be disappointed! The fish is crispy/crunch, hot and absolutely delicious. This is my favorite place to get a fish fry! And the best part about this place is? Its hella affordable, so be nice and tip those guys they deserve it

    I met a dear college friend here, so I might have been more generous with the star rating. It's…read moreprobably more a 3.25-3.5, but our visit was 5 stars! The restaurant is on an extremely busy four lane divided highway/street and this restaurant is next to a La-Z-Boy store (to help you spot it). The great news is there is a lot of free and convenient parking at the restaurant. Upon entering the restaurant, it is a very open floor plan. While there are many TV screens for those sitting near the bar area, it is not disruptive to those in the dining area. The ambiance is casually upscale and pleasant. The outdoor patio areas were closed off due to the hot summer temperatures. There is also a large covered patio-like area where it did not seem that people were seated (or very few). I believe that dogs are allowed there year-round, though there weren't any dogs there during our visit. When the weather is better, dogs are also allowed on the outdoor patio. My friend and I were seated in a comfortable booth and were promptly greeted by our server. My friend is gluten and dairy free and our server was very knowledgeable on how to accommodate these sensitivities. We both ordered the Tuscan Chicken Entrees - I had mine with green beans and mashed potatoes; my friend's sides were broccoli and tater tots. Our server was overall appropriately attentive. My friend found the chicken entree too peppery and I found mine edible but on the edge of being too salty. The chicken was topped with artichoke hearts and feta, which could account for some saltiness. If I came here again, I would probably order something else. Overall, I would recommend this restaurant, though it's not anyplace I would run back to. It was a good experience overall, but not for foodies. It's a sports bar that tries hard to be and overall succeeds in being a decent dining experience.
