Charlie's Coney Island - Gary

Great food. Staff are beautiful older mothers who work together and provide services with love. You have no full staff and have wished a posted ad for help, but in patients and available time, you will be worth your money. I was there twice and I tipped twice and will do it again. I order good blessings for this business and the staff.

It's nice to go somewhere where they know how to put love in their food. And it's cool to see old pictures of African American heroes and heroines, and welcoming of those who can respect diversity. The History of every major Galactic Civilization tends to pass through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival, Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise known as the How, Why, and Where phases. For instance, the first phase is characterized by the question ‘How can we eat?’ the second by the question ‘Why do we eat?’ and the third by the question ‘Where shall we have lunch?‘” Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe. Some want to move from survival to inquiry to sophistication quickly and don't really mind who's back they are going behind or toes they are stepping on, but this restaurant is respectful of others hunger, thinks freely, and is sophisticated in their love of their deep and awesome African heritage and folks of other classes and races.

Good hearty food. Got a skillet with all the toppings. The only knock I can say the eggs were bland but the protein definitely carried.

Awesome food. The staff are beautiful elder mothers that work together and provide services with love. They don't have a full staff and have a posted ad for help wanted, however with patients and available time, you will get your money worth. I've been there twice, and tipped twice and will do it again. I command good blessings on this business and staff.

I ordered 2 eggs over medium, bacon, hashbrowns, and white toast. The eggs were cooked perfectly as was the bacon and hashbrowns. It was delicious and ready quick. I will most definitely eat here again. Oh, and make sure you wear your mask when you go in, they enforce that. Enjoy!
