I'm kinda disappointed, I'm originally from Thunder Bay and have been to the Coney Island I can't even count how many times, food was always great especially that sauce, totally my favorite. Every time I would go to TBay to visit I always made sure to stop in and grab a few containers to take back to Manitoba,bragging about this amazing sauce, long story short, I was recently visiting some family and I was definitely going to get some of that sauce to take back home to wpg for myself and a few friends.

Again the bun was steamed and tasty. However, the actual hamburger meat was over cooked, tough and lacking flavor. The sauce was the same as the hotdogs. Customer service was fantastic. Too bad the food...
Read moreIt had been nearly 2 decades since I had visited Coney Island, in all that time the only thing that changed was the staff, and the shape of the coca cola cans. Literally exactly the same!!! The staff were incredibly friendly, the food was awesome, much faster than any fast food restaurant in town. I had just sat down at the bar after ordering, my pop was already in my spot, I barely had time to open the can of pop when my coney dog appeared on a plate in front of me, immediately followed by the fries and gravy from the back kitchen!!! I mean, it's as close to a Nascar pitstop as one could hope for!!! ...
