Best Lechon Restaurant Lansing Near Me

Alexander Woods: I love, love, love the food here!! I have been excited about this place since it came to Lansing. The owner is a great person and you can taste the high quality of food provided and the friendly service given. My go-to is a spicy chicken bowl with the vegetables and plantains. Great music, great staff, and they even have events to attend on the weekends. Just ask!Parking: It's city parking, so it's free after a certain time but you have to use the passport app or the kiosk to pay for parking. It's not expensive in my opinion.Wheelchair accessibility: There is a handicap parking spot, next to a even surface to use a wheelchair

C Blanks: I really enjoyed my meal at Tatse! The food was flavorful and tasted like someone put their heart into creating a comforting meal with fresh, quality ingredients.

Sean B: Wow! Is all I can say about an unexpected culinary delight. A small unobtrusive store front hides a great food experience a stones throw from the State Capital. We would have walked by if the owner wasn't coming out.Our order was taken at the counter, and brought to our table. It is a small menu, but the food is good. Alcohol options, canned soda and beer available.Food is delicious. Definitely something out of the ordinary. Large spicy chicken bowl, small chicken bowl and 2 drinks were 42 dollars. Not a bad deal for something out of the ordinary in downtown Lansing.Family owned and run, with a chill atmosphere this place becomes a nightclub after 10:00.I will probably go back the next time I am in town.

Stacyann “Cici” Clarke: Food is a little expensive, but extremely delicious and worth every penny. This place has a unique ambiance, vibrant style, and friendly service.The only change I think would be helpful is better take out containers, (maybe plastic instead of the cardboard containers for the egusi soup). Again food quality and taste is spot on.....yummy. I will definitely be back.

Hojoon Kim: I used to live in East Africa. This restaurant is more rooted in West Africa which is something I have not tried before. Nonetheless food is as authentic as it gets. With first bite you will know how much effort has been put into the food. Highly recommend this place

KeyBreed: I am writing this review from a place of pure embarrassment and sickness. Thinking I would trying something new and support local black owned businesses I ignored all red flags from them not having what I originally wanted to the rudely unenthusiastic person taking my order. I did not know I was gonna be robbed of a beautiful day, being spent not knowing which end this $20 spicy chicken bowl was gonna forcefully come out of me. I’m truly disappointed in myself for not turning around after walking into this place. I didn’t enjoy this meal I didn’t even eat 25% of it. I’m just glad I didn’t let my son nor my dog eat this. So please people do not be like me. Go somewhere else.

Michael Simmons: Hey Doug! No, I don’t really know you, but our waitperson was Ginger and she told me you own People’s Kitchen. Thought I’d personalize this review! Just had breakfast with my beautiful partner and we agree this was an excellent meal! We had the pancakes and Still Ain’t Broke. Eggs made perfectly and that lemon butter on the cakes was amazing. Sausage was also very tasty.Oh, and the coffee was the best! And, and Ginger was very friendly and provided all the answers we needed in making our selections and she kept the coffee flowing. Thanks!

N M: This was an experience. A very artsy relaxed feeling upon entering. I loved how happy and friendly the staff was. My whole family was in love with each dish. I recommend everything as we pretty much ordered one of each thing on the brunch menu. My family wants to come back to try the dinner.

Hailey: Great and friendly staff. We had to wait about 10 mins for a table of 4 on a Saturday morning, but they did estimate about 30 mins. They do not have gluten-free bread or batter. I wasn't a fan of the breakfast potatoes, they reminded me of a Thanksgiving meal, lol. But my friends like them. Overall, cool place!Food: 5/5|Service: 5/5|Atmosphere: 5/5 …More

Etta Abrahams: The most wonderful expansion of the East side of Lansing for me has been The People’s Kitchen. It’s atmosphere has a lovely grittiness about it and one feels entirely at home in whatever one chooses to wear—dress, denim or drag. But most important are the food, wine and service. Whether for brunch, lunch or dinner, in small or larger groups, every morsel I’ve eaten and sip I’ve imbibed has been transportative. The servers are prompt, knowledgeable and attentive. The chef changes the menu seasonall it seems. Yes, prices are up there, but the experience is worth it. Not fit for a glutton but for those who appreciate reasonably sized portions of finely prepared foods.Be sure to try one of their special wine tasting or beer tasting dinners!Parking: Lots of parking behind and across the street.Wheelchair accessibility: Ramp to restaurant.

Justin Kirkpatrick: Hands down the best restaurant in the area. Haven’t had a bad dish ever, and I often bring out of town guests for dinner. Cocktails are always inventive and fresh. Highly highly recommend.

Mandy Dittmer: Some of the best food in Lansing! Love their pancakes and chicken sandwiches among other things…just an excellent establishment that you must try!

Kyle Parkllan: The food tasted great, and the service and atmosphere was very cool. I would recommend looking at the menu beforehand, as the prices and entrees have changed (understandable) since the last time we visited. Two separate parties were seated next to us and left after looking at the menu claiming they couldn't addord it. The server was so kind and did provide some local recommendations which I'm sure helped what was likely an uncomfortable feeling.We ordered two entrees, no drinks, apps or desert and it was $87 before tip. Unfortunately the portion sizes left us hungry.I'm not saying there's anything wrong with what they charge, but the dinner service seemed to target the high end/specialty dining experience.
