Too hard to digest

AI Highlights
  • - Three spicy coneys tasted good.
  • - I had a stomachache for three days after eating.
  • - They taste good and are crispy, but have a long aftertaste.

Mike Coney is a spicy coney. I ate three of them.They tasted good but I had a stomachache for three days after.

It isn't enough for a coney restaurant to have food that tastes good-- the customer has to be able to enjoy it after it goes down the hatch.

I don't know if Mike Coney buys his coney dogs at the distributor or if he makes his own but he has to pay more attention to the ingredients he puts into his dogs. They taste good and they are crispy to *** but you can keep tasting them for days.

Not Good For Vegetarians

AI Highlights
  • - Vegetarian reviewer wants more vegetarian/vegan options.
  • - They suggest adding a tofu or bean curd dog.
  • - More vegetarian options could boost sales.

As a vegetarian, I was expecting a lot more choices. How can a fine dining establishment like American Coney Island Hot Dog stay in business without vegetarian or vegan choices?

I would suggest that they add a tofu or bean curd dog to the menu. While these items may appear disgusting at first due to horrible taste and mealy consistency, with decades of practice forcing them past your nose and taste buds, you could learn to "tolerate" them as I have.

I am certain that if American Coney Island adds more choices for those who like their hot dogs without any actual meat, their sales would skyrocket.

Cons:
  • Meat in dogs

MIKE CONEY MADE ME SICK TO MY STOMACH

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - The reviewer tried a Mike Coney Dog recipe online.
  • - They ate two and felt unwell afterward.
  • - The note mentions Mike Coney died young.

Mike Coney the inventor of the Coney Island Hot Dog should have stayed in the hamburger business. Okay, so i read this article online about Mike Coney and the his great hot dogs and all the great toppings so my wife and i, big hot dog fans, decided to build a Mike Coney Dog. DON'T EVER DO THIS:

1 Hot Dog Bun

1 100% Pork Dog - deep fried in oil

2 tablespoons of Chile -

4 slices of onions - fried

4 french fried potatoes

1 jalapeno pepper

1 squirt of mustard

1 squirt of ketchup

1 squirt of mayo

I ate two of these Mike Coney monsters and an hour later not even 3 alkaseltzers helped. Bottom line: be careful what recipes you try on line. And Mike Coney who died young, probably from eating one of his concoctions, may he rest in peace.

Pros:
  • Idea of the mike coney dog
Cons:
  • Stomach ache the dog gave me

Preferred solution: They should take down Mike Coney website

can't believe the pats pulled it out

we had coney dogs all day

Guest

Mike Coney Dog, forget about it. If you want a real Hot Dog the only place to go is in Passaic NJ - It's called Rutz Hut and had been around for a hundred. Order, and Hot Dog shows up in less than 2 minutes.

Deep fried in oil these Thumann dogs dont need no toppings, just mustard and bun.

Guest

Can you believe a weekend without a mike coney dog

Guest

not feeling good today after a day with Mike Coney dogs and beer

Guest

eating a giant mike coney during the ravens game - come on!!!!

I am pissed at the birds - no offense

Guest

I just had a coney dog, ouch do I not feel good,

I must have a food allergy because I normally don't get kind of result from a mike coney

Guest

I like the mike coney dogs, great at a ball game or after a night of partying

Go mike coney

Guest

got to love a good coney dog

Guest

Forget about the Mike Coney Coney Island Hot Dog. There is no better dog than you will find at Rutz Hut in Passaic, NJ

Guest

This whole thing is a Mike Coney Scam - Probably was never a hot dog named the coney dog. I should know i eat Nathan's dogs by the dozen.

Guest

This seems like Mike Coney promoting his hotdogs. I don't believe it.

Guest

Bunch of wimps probably just cant handle a coney dog - Not a big guy but can easily down 3 coney dogs, you just need to add a couple more hot peppers. Mike Coney da man

Guest

Best Dogs ever... not sure why folks complain... Mikes the man!!

Guest

I went to the Mike Coney Dog website and followed the recipe. No complaints here other than you cant eat more than two of these suckers.

Guest

wow, pissed off at Mike Coney

Guest

I have to agree. I ate only one Coney dog but my stomach was groaning all day long.

I found this recipe on www.mike-coney.com and it seemed fine. But different story when I actually ate it.

Guest

I go sick also

Lawsuit !!!
