    Reliable excellence. Dusty's remains while dozens of competitors have appeared and vanished. It's much more than their combination of professional service and a consistently great menu. This enterprise is simply run well. The 'business side' doesn't intrude, it quietly enhances the experience. It keeps Dusty's secure among Michigan's top tier restaurants. You'll enjoy it this week, next year, or further in the future.

    We wanted to get away from campus after move in day. We loved everything about Dusty’s. The salads were crisp and fresh. My husband had the chicken and said it was one of the best meals he has had in ages. Stuffed portobello was delicious. We will definitely be back next time we are in town.

    Simply SUPERLATIVE food and experience. And not just "for Lansing area," but period. Dusty's used to be our go-to restaurant for fine dining, back in the 90's and early 2000's, before we moved to a different state. This was the first time we'd been back for at least 15 years, and the food and service were INCREDIBLE. Colton was our server, and was EXTREMELY attentive. And the food was top-shelf. The fig and gorgonzola flatbread is a flavor BOMB - a fantastic WOW combination of sweet and savory. My wife and I both took our first bites and went, "OMG....this is SO GOOD!!!" And the entrees were equally excellent: she got the Korean braised beef (truly melt in your mouth), and I got the mushroom stroganoff. Both were piping hot and delicious. One of THE best measures of exceptional food is when you take a bite, and then immediately turn to your dining partner and say, "You HAVE to try this!!!" We BOTH did this, throughout the meal. And the key lime pie with macerated strawberries gets our mutual vote for BEST KEY LIME PIE WE HAVE EVER HAD, ANYWHERE. Side note: we've taken the last year, since pandemic, to go out once a month to different restaurants, mostly in the Birmingham AL area (where we now live), but also in Portland, Seattle, and Chicago. And our dinner at Dusty's ranks as one of THE best food and service experiences we've had (out of close to two dozen). A+++ THANK YOU Dusty's!!!!

    We hadn't been to Dusty's for a couple of years and were very happy to see the food quality and ambience is as good as ever. It was my daughter's first time to Dusty's and for her birthday dinner (she got the filet) she was very impressed.

    Always a great meal at Dusty’s. They know exactly how to cook there proteins, especially the fish which so many cooks get wrong. Never overcooked.

    Party of 5 for my daughter's birthday. Son-in-law ordered the filet, med-rare, it was well done. That meal was comped. We had the Cheese & Charcuterie. One of the meats tasted rancid. We told the server and asked what it was, possibly supposed to taste that way, but we gave up after asking three times. I had the sirloin, the beets were the best thing. It was noted when I made the reservation that it was for a birthday, but that was never brought up. We've patronized Dusty's for years, though not so much since covid. The food and service is a far cry from what it was in the past. I doubt if I'll ever go back.

    For a busy day like Mother’s Day, service was friendly & efficient. We were celebrating a birthday which was noted when we made reservations, and even after commentating during the service, was never acknowledged. Otherwise, great meal.

    It was for my husband’s birthday. We had reservations and seated immediately. Our server was great! The soup was delicious. My husband’s steak dinner was great. My duck dinner was not good. The duck was overcooked and the rest of the food didn’t really go with the duck. The noise level is pretty high. Overall I don’t think we’ll return.

    First time here and will be back! Food was very good. Great ambiance and our server Colton was fantastic and we were his first table he head ever taken care of. He really did a great job which is a testament to their training practices. Prices were a little higher than I expected but overall a very nice evening out.

    We started with mussels as an appetizer and they were all right, but our dinners were not. I ordered the duck and found it tough, dry and tasteless. My partner's dinner steak was also tough with little or no flavor. The house wine, however was very nice. We won't go there anymore. Very disappointed.
