“A very cute, locally owned company with delicious food at a great price. I found this place when my last job decided to grab takeout for lunch, and they happened to be one of the few places in town you can get a good mashed potato bowl. I've been going since, and I'm hooked on their fried pita wedges and parmesan ranch.Definitely one of the hidden gems of East Lansing!Vegetarian options: You can opt for no chicken on most of the menu. The potato bowls can come with corn, mushroom, and peppers! Some of their soups are also vegetarian.“
“Excellent burgers and great price. Beer is cold. They only had 1 waitstaff on besides a bartender on a Saturday afternoon, took a while to get some service but we were acknowledged by someone (not sure if he was a manager) so at least we were not ignored. Once our order was taken, drinks came fast and food shortly after. Great environment, music was great, keno, and cold beer! Waitstaff was very friendly.“
“This is a cool little spot. I hadn’t been there in a few years, or since it’s been under new ownership. I went in there to play pool on the one Valley table that they have there. The owner is a pretty cool guy and very sociable. I hear he is pretty generous when serving drinks, if you get one. He plays good music as well.“
“Friends, my wife, and I thoroughly enjoyed the place for dinner last night. ALL food was fresh and very well prepared. Service was also excellent. Grilled chicken dinner was everything I’d hoped for and same could be said for wife’s Nachos and friends’ burgers. I’ve paid more and gotten less even from places with good reputations. Place looks good but is a tad loud for my old ears.“
“After visiting for the first time a few weeks ago, I'm craving the chicken and waffles all the time...and the yams too! I didn't get to try the peach cobbler, but its next on my list. This is an OG Soul Food joint that can't be missed.“
“This is my girlfriend's and my favorite place to go. Everything about it is comfortable and tasty. Highly highly recommend for any age range.Wheelchair accessibility: I'm a wheelchair user and it is super roomy to move my powerchair around without feeling like I'm bumping into customers or waitstaff. Lots of tables to pick from. Wish more places were like this“
“I have lived in the area for several years, and drive past Dagwoods almost daily but had never tried it until yesterday. Wonderful food at a great price with great staff. I am personally not much of a sports fan so I didn't get anything out of having the games on, but I know that the main crowd is people watching various athletic events. Not my scene, but if you expect to go into a sports bar on a friday night and not have a game on, you are going to the wrong place! Food was great. We ordered the quintessential bar meal: a burger and fries, which was just spectacular. Two people getting a delicious meal for $18 bucks is unheard of in this city, but it happened here! We will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu.“
“The Ave is a Lansing staple, hosting some of the best food in the city and an awesome environment. You can have many different kinds of night at the Ave. You can go there for a nice dinner, you can go there for a drink and a show, or you can go there and get absolutely ripped. All are 5 star experiences, and the people complaining about service at a punk bar like it's an Olive Garden are lame as hell.“
“A really nice place to hang out and watch a chill band, play soccer, or play volleyball...or do all 3! Great patio with lots of well-kept greenery. Kudos to the plant people! Nice selection of food and wide variety of beer and beverages. You can also bring your doggo. You won't see anything from the road so you'll just have to go up the long drive to see for yourself. Highly recommend!“
“We have been to this place now a handful of time and every time it has been a good experience but tonight was different. Our service was AMAZING! Not only was our waitress full of smiles but she went above and beyond for us! We appreciate your kindness and pray you keep it up. Keep smiling girlfriend “
“As always, food and service was awesome. Alyssa, our server, was great! She kept track of how long our appetizer was taking, and also found someone for us who knew how to make an older mocktail recipe that is no longer on the menu. Thank you Alyssa!“
“In my quest to find the best burger in Lansing, I happened upon the Rusty Mug. Certainly one of the best three burgers that I have had in Lansing....I would heartily recommend the burger with fried egg and blackberry jam...It was properly cooked to temperature (often people err on the side of overcooked l). The sweet potato puffs are also quite good. Rusty Mug is also across from Blue Owl coffee (for my money, the best coffee shop in the Lansing area). Enjoy!“
“We had such a great experience! The ambiance was really appealing inside. We weren't too hot, too cold but just right! The inside of the restaurant is designed quite nicely. The food was amazing. Our server was friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back!“
