Tucked into the corner of a large intersection just strip off the interstate, the Hellenic Restaurant is easily accessible, welcoming, friendly and full of good food and fresh coffee. Our party of five arrived around 11 AM one weekday recently. Seating was open: tables and chairs, or booths. Everything was clean. No stickiness. Some of our party ordered breakfast; others lunched. Our server was kind, accommodating and efficient. He kept coffee mugs filled, and had our meals out in a flash. Everything was well-timed, brought to us fresh off the griddle or out of the oven. Impressive. The Reuben Sandwich I ordered was excellent: crisp, hot and full of corned beef. Sauerkraut was wonderfully sour. I even ordered an extra side! Price point is reasonable. High recommendations. read more

LOVE this place! I'm obsessed with their chicken Greek salad. I get it with 1/2 pasta and 1/2 lettuce and it's delicious! Portion sizes are good too! read more

Food is decent to okay, like any run of the Mill Coney. Wait staff is often short. The headbanger for me is this place being effectively like any other Coney Island, but somehow charging 9(you read that right)dollars for a side of frozen fries. Plain fries at that. You'll find better or similar for a lot cheaper elsewhere. read more

Meh. There are such better coneys and diners in the area - this one is expensive and a bit skimpy on portions. The Greek salad with grilled chicken was pretty decent, but could have had more feta. It was fresh, at least. My hubby's club was pretty lame, though - one single slice of turkey per piece of bread. He also ordered cheese fries, and out bill was like $45. I think too pricey for what you get. read more

Hellenic Restaurant - One slice of turkey per piece of bread. Kind of lame. - American Near Me - Southfield, Michigan

I have been coming here since I was kid. It was where I learned about coneys at probably age 4 or 5. I still come here as its just a great coney. My mom loved it also. Friendly staff and classic dinet/coney vibe inside. read more

My husband decided to bring breakfast home from a different restaurant. His friend recommended Hellenic. The first thing I noticed was how runny the tzatziki sauce was. I don't know what the meat was but it didn't taste like gyro and one morsel was definitely a slice of a breakfast sausage link. The top of the omelette was dry but the inside was not done. I don't care for runny eggs at any time. With recent challenges with eggs the recommendation is that they be cooked thoroughly. I did not eat most of the omelette. read more

What a lovely Saturday morning breakfast a large group of us shared at the Hellenic! Free, ample parking is available in the large lot just outside the entrance. It was quiet enough that conversation flowed as the fresh coffee (in small cups that had been mistakenly ordered) was poured and refilled over and over. I had scrambled eggs and buttered, toasted rye bread. It was served just off the griddle hot. Our kind, knowing server had been working here for a long long time; recalling when the restaurant had been originally up the street. Great experience. Everyone left satisfied. read more

Service was excellent the Grilled Chicken in my Salad and in the chicken stir fry was so hard I thought I was eating croutons instead of of chicken. This was my first time here. It was recommended by some friends. I guess this was A bad day for the cook. SMH Hellenic stop serving over cooked chicken read more

Absolutely rudest owner. A few years back he was condescending and downright unacceptable rude. Restaurant was closing and the waitresses said we could finish up while they cleaned up. He walked over to our table and told us "its time for you to leave now" all while leaning on the table and pushing his face at us aggressively!!! This was exactly 3 minutes after closing. We left and stood outside and literally watched the staff cleaning for another 30 minutes!!! I am a 30+ year patron Of hellenic. Very disappointing and just done with this big burly jerk. read more

The food; prices and service are 5 There is minimal wait time from the time being seated to when your order is presented. The waitstaff doesn't hover over your table asking "how's the food?" Re-fills are timely and the atmosphere is the occasional "OPA" The Hellenic is the go to restaurant with an extensive menu. read more

By far the best salad dressing of any restaurant I have ever eaten at. The chicken Greek salad is one of my favorite meals of all time. On the pricier side these days but quick carry out service. read more

No senior discount Food was Allright. Wanted more tomatoes and beets for the skimpy mini Greek salad. They charged $1.50 EACH for extra. I've had many better gyro & greek at any corner coney island. read more

First time coming to this fine establishment. It is seat yourself. The place was clean and the staff was friendly. Saganaki had such great flavor one of the top I have ever head, downfall you don't get that much with it. The blt wrap was amazing, I usually get blt sandwich and cut my mouth with the toast this made a whole different experience for me and now I will never go back . My friend got the club sandwich was delicious. Honestly everything we ordered was so good we will definitely be back. There was only one lady helping the tables but she killed it! read more

Placed a carry out order, went to pick up, service was unfriendly, my order was wrong, I asked for a burger with onions, they tell me they don't come on burgers...I say can I have them on the side and they say $1.50! Burger wasn't great at all, tried them for breakfast before...not great. Would not recommend this place. read more

I will never eat at this restaurant ever again. After eating here I ended up in the hospital with food poisoning

Large Spring mix Greek chicken salad was over priced but good. Almost $30 I could've made it at home. Dressing was really good. You should never pay over $15 for a salad. read more

Normally coney islands are all pretty much the same. However, this one is in a league of its own. The food is over priced, very small portions and tasted awful! It's in the plaza with Michigan First Credit Union. Do yourself a huge favor, and go elsewhere. Lastly, the folks are NOT very friendly. One would think that folks would be SUPER nice post pandemic, but maybe they don't need the business. read more

Horrible Pancakes. Worse service from Management. The wait staff is pleasant enough. My family are regular patrons, often ordering 4 meals for the family. Even with explicitly saying, "golden pancakes please"....this is what has been repeatedly served as the standard of service. I have had to send pancakes back on atleast 4 occasions. Enough is enough! Save yourself some aggravation, go to Marco's Cozy Cafe or the Original Pancake House - both are in Southfield on 10 mile. Frankly, this is ridiculous!! No...it's a d**n shame that will spoil any family breakfast table. Oh, yes I tried to take this back and speak to the manager. He refused to speak to me. If I can get in my car and request a new order...I think the least any manager would do was to take the complaint, hear you out, and recover your service...they couldn't even do that. My advice, Don't waste your time. Try any of the same flavor of restaurants- that serve the same food, at the same cost , offering better service - all in the Southfield area. read more

Best greek salad dressing anywhere! Great stir fry, amazing salads! Breakfast, lunch or dinner is fast and excellent.

I love this place. I have been coming to this place and their old location for about two decades. I have never had a bad meal here. The customer service is top-notch. This is a great place to eat if you are in a hurry. They know how to get you in and out. read more

Ridiculous! I just walked into Helenic Coney, Sat in a booth. It was 1:18p on a weekday, they were maybe 1/4 full. Waitress comes over, says I needed to get up and take a table in the middle because these are reserved for two or more. I said that's ridiculous there are seven open booths right now. She tells the owner, he comes over and says "you have to move." I said I'll move out the front door and I left. Seriously, that's some crazy control freak stuff. I understand if it's busy, but it was slow and I imagine their lunch rush was over?!?!? read more

I stumbled onto this place while looking for another restaurant and decided to pop in. It was bustling with activity, which is usually a good sign. I ended up waiting a long time at what I would have considered off-peak lunch time (after 1:00 p.m.). When I finally got the food, it was a real disappointment. The spinach pie was microwave city: two tough hockey pucks of spinach, pastry and a little feta cheese on the top. The Greek salad had an OK dressing but it wasn't good enough to hide ingredients decidedly not fresh. With a name like Hellenic Restaurant, you might think that there would be more than 5 - 7 dishes on a large menu that are Greek. Sometimes, though, expectations are not met. As a result, I expect that I won't be coming here again. read more

Best hand cut French Fries and we love the chicken Greek. The owner is on the premises and it shows

Hellenic Coney Island moved to this location from their spot on Evergreen and Twelve Mile and in doing so they dropped the "Coney Island" part of the name in lieu of the more broad "Restaurant." But don't let the name change fool you, their coney's are still where it's at. Two coneys and a plate of their legendary fries are the gut busting special here and they are quite delicious. The dogs are sturdy and meaty and they've got a hearty beef flavor. Top them with their quality chili, a load of mustard and a heaping helping of onions and you've got yourself a meal! But don't just stop with the dogs, you gotta add their secret weapon--their fries. I don't know if this is on the menu or not (honestly when you know what you want you don't need to order) but they've got two kinds of fries here--their standard fry, and their special "old" fries made like they cooked em up at their last location. Not sure what they do differently but please--do yourselves a favor and get the old fry. These are delicious. A little under-salted for me (I like it salty!) but a few passes of the old shaker make them pretty much perfect. Great, friendly service (they'll definitely encourage you to up your coney order) and a comfy space with plenty of seating and large booths if you come in for lunch with a big group. I'll admit that while they're not the best coney's I've ever had in my life (the downtown joints take the cake for me) these definitely rank up there with some of the better dogs I've had. I honestly cannot comment on anything else on the menu because when you've got coneys and fries as tasty as these it's hard to deviate and try anything else. read more

The Greek dressing is addictive. Best chicken Greek salad and pasta you can find. I always come here for lunch. They sell bottles of their delicious dressing read more

I've been a pretty loyal customer since mid nineties when they were at the old location. Although I think some things have changed as far as quality & service , I continue to patronize. Inside is ok, cramped and busy. My favorite is the chicken Greek salad, a lil pricey and the portions are small and lack in the toppings that accompany the salad. Even after asking for extra, still barely see that paying is worth it. After all these years the greek dressing is still to die for. Have had breakfast there but not really a fan, I've had better. read more

Very clean and good tasting food. The hot pasta is the best if you don't know what to order. Thank me later.

Made a take out order and they forgot and item. When I asked if they would replace the sandwich as I could not leave work again and go back I was told no, it was my fault for not checking. Absolutely terrible service, will never go back. Try somewhere else, there are many options in this area. read more

Great coney. All the good food of Detroit! Greek salads, coneys. Breakfast! Yummy stuff! Staff is great!

Went in today and was not impressed at all! Came for the lemon rice soup which is pretty good but the service was simply terrible! The employees walk around looking unenthusiastic. The owner was very nonchalant and rude when speaking to me! For my first time here, I wasn't welcomed but was instead rushed to hurry and make a decision from a menu I was unfamiliar with! I also ordered fries and they were the most unseasoned morsels of food I have ever placed within my mouth. Soup is fine though... but eh. Nonetheless, I won't be returning! read more

I'll keep this short and sweet. I've been ordering 1 thing from the menu for the past 15+ years... the chicken stir fry with Greek dressing and pita bread. I've had breakfast there twice and it was good but the stir fry is to die for! Tomato, green pepper, onion and chicken over the best buttery rice and Greek dressing poured on top is the only way I eat it. Oh and the warm pita bread just pushes it into comfort food territory. Order it and thank me later. read more

A little disappointed this last visit, my wife and I both got salads that really weren't up to par. My youngest wanted the wings dings and fries. The salads were wilted and the toppings we're few and far between. I expected more from a grilled chicken ceasars salad but I was sadly mistaken on this particular visit. The gentleman explained to my daughter that he would give her frozen fries because they would travel better? What in the world does that mean? Can't say I will proactively go back on my own. read more

It's a hit or miss with this place... Before the move to 11 and Evergreen, this place was my go to for chicken greeks, but now every time I come here I can never seem to get a chicken greek with all the listed toppings. One of the following is always missing chickpeas/olives/tomato. Just isn't the same. If the salad dressing wasn't so good, I'd quit them! read more

I drive 30+ minutes just to eat here. It's the hot chicken pasta for me, and the grilled pita, AND the breakfast.
