Great meatloaf and a fantastic lemon raspberry cheesecake. Good chocolate cake and ice cream. The risotto could have been cooked a little more with a little more seasoning. Fries were delicious. Nice bright seat by the window. We will be back!

I have now been here three times and can say it has been top notch every time! I think consistency is one of the best qualities in a dining establishment and this place embodies that. The staff is attentive as soon as you walk through the door but never intrusive. The ambience is contemporary like one would expect stepping off the street in a large city, yet it still feels cozy. The seafood risotto is just delicious. Simple yet loaded with flavor! I do think they could use a larger shrimp like an 8-10 size. I have also had the cacio e Pepe as well. My boyfriend has had the steak, the famous bowl, the sea bass and reports all of those were delicious! We decided to get a dessert last night....the flourless chocolate cake. This happens to be my favorite dessert so I'm a bit of a connoisseur...it was one of the best. This one has a bit of blueberry compote (usually I prefer raspberry but this was a nice pairing as well). My date isn't a big fan of chocolate desserts but loved it too! It has a very subtle sweetness that doesn't leave you feeling like you are on a sugar high. A truly elegant ending to the meal. The ONLY thing I'm not a fan of here is the bar stools....too short for the bar and I feel like my chin is on the table. Maybe next time I can get a booster. we will be back....again and again!

We couldn't have hoped for a better dining experience. Delicious food and exceptional service in a chic but comfortable space. What a jewel in Lansing's crown!

My wife and I, on a whim decided to head downtown and grab a bite. The original place we had decided on closed at 4, so we went for a walk to find another spot. Which turned out to be a wonderful thing. We passed EnVie which opened at 5. (we accidently walked in at 430, and were enthusiastically encouraged to come back at 5) so we grabbed a quick beer at the pub down the road, and at 5 we headed over. They happily seated us, even though we had not called ahead for a reservation.The atmosphere was clean, friendly, and felt upscale. We enjoyed a cocktail each, me an old fashion, and her a Lavender Haze. Both were spectacular.We shared a starter of warm ricotta and goat cheese dip, which was fresh and appetizing. The service was on point, and our servers helped me decide on the "Kinda Famous Chicken Bowl". The chicken breast was cooked perfectly with a crunchy corn flake coating. The sauce was the perfect level of spice. The vegetables were delightful, with everything sitting on a creamy mashed potato base.My wife had the Bourbon Honey Glaze Pork Belly. She was kind enough to give me a taste, and the mix of the pork belly with the blue cheese polenta was seasoned perfectly, and had a wonderful sweet taste. (The Bourbon honey glaze was great)This was our first trip, but certainly will not be our last. For an "upscale" place, the prices are actually pretty reasonable. If you have never been here, I urge you to try it. You will not be disappointed! This will certainly become one of our go to date night places!

Nice little spot with great food. Really enjoyed my braised short rib. They had my favorite scotch, too. Will absolutely be back to try some other menu items.

We came for dinner on a Saturday night and were lucky enough to get a table without a reservation. The staff was attentive and the food came out in a timely manner. Much love was put in to the flavors and we enjoyed every last bit! Can't wait to come back again.
We adored EnVie and were very pleasantly surprised by how good all the food was. We were celebrating our 2 year anniversary and ordered the Cacio y Pepe and a Steak Bowl (I believe the EnVie Special Bowl, something along those lines). It was a bit of a last minute choice and the food was phenomenal. The atmosphere felt very cool and sleek and we enjoyed being in it. There was a homeless man lingering around outside the window for a few minutes but that's not the restaurant's fault by any means. Only thing that could've been better was the pouring of the wine; the server seemed a bit inexperienced with it but it wasn't a real issue. We would definitely come back and recommend!

Made a res for my wife’s birthday dinner. We were greeted at the door by a very friend staff and a birthday card signed by the staff - what a lovely way to start the evening. Food was delicious. I won’t even call it customer service - that would undersell it. What we experienced was hospitality. Waters were always full, we were attended to, but not overwhelmed with visits to the table and the team couldn’t have been more welcoming. It was a 5-star experience. Highly recommend making a res for special occasions and let em know - they’ll take care of you!

Attentive, friendly service and well prepared delicious food, exactly what you want and expect in a nice restaurant. Highly recommended. My wife had some dietary restrictions and because of her requests the server was sure to ask everyone at the table about theirs as well.

Food was good and the service was great with a nice ambiance. Only thing I didn't care for is my fries was over cooked so they wasn't the greatest.
