   Can’t go wrong, everything is good — the cocktails are top notch, apps are great, mains are always stellar, and dessert is not to be missed

   Cool atmosphere. Great food. Great service. A little loud but typical for most restaurants.

   The food is really good here. Wednesday lunchtime isn’t that crowded so you can hold a conversation. It is a limited menu , but it was still very difficult to choose because about 80% of the choices made me salivate. The wait staff are proud to be serving such good food. Highly recommend! (Which I shouldn’t really do because it gets a little noisy when crowded)

    We have been to the Peoples Kitchen several times. The food is very good although a bit expensive. Its very loud there, but we were still able to enjoy our own conversation. Josh was our server. He was good but very busy. Luckily the food is brought out by someone else as soon as its ready.

    We had a fantastic evening. Doug and all the staff the were attentive and kind. A very nice selection of seasonal cocktails. The Goat cheese gnocchi was to die for. The best I’ve ever had. The Kathy Ford band was there the night we visited and we had a great time singing along . We hope she become a regular there as well.

    Honestly this is THE best place you can go to. They have taken care of us better than any restaurant I have been to. Not only is the service incredible, the people are so kind and the food speaks for itself. You can really taste the high quality food they serve. From the lamb shank to the sea bass to the pork belly, It’s all amazing. And dessert is a HAVE to. We are so thankful to have a restaurant that shows their passion for food and people.

    This was a first visit for 5 of my party of 6. We were surprised by the limited menu, but the descriptions all sounded delicious and all of us were delighted with the dishes that we ordered. From from appetizers to dessert, we we savored every bite. Service was attentive and helpful without being cloying. Only the sound level detracted from our dining experience.

    Great service and engaging environment. Food was decent with exception of the Pork Belly Confit. The pork belly was not brined, braised, and pressed which caused it to be 90%fatty and not edible. Server was fantastic and removed it from our bill.

    Everything is very good on this focused seasonal locavore menu. The Manager was very helpful and seated us outside, because our friend with a hearing aid could not hear us easily indoors because of the noise level.

    This was our 3rd or 4th visit to the Peoples Kitchen. Josh the server was excellent without being over bearing. Cocktails before dinner. Eclectic choices on the menu made selection tough. Had 2 of the appetizers crab fritters and mushroom. Can only say excellent. My wife and daughter got the burgers. In a 1-10 they scored 9 & 10. I had the scallops nice sear perfectly done. The sauces and additions that come with these meals give them the 5 star value rating. BTW they make a wonderful Manhattan cocktail Great place all around.

    Went for a date. It was my first time at the people’s kitchen and my partners second time. Made a reservation at 5:45. We got there and the tables was ready for us. Was moderately busy but some open tables. I had a glass of red wine and then a rosé. My partner had a cocktail and enjoyed it, it was more on the sour side but that’s what he likes. He had ordered the goat cheese gnocchi and I ordered the chicken. Both were wonderful. The sauce that was over the gnocchi was very yummy. I scraped the plate just to get it all! We did not have dessert because we were much more full than expected. I am looking forward to going back and trying other dishes.

    This place is a gem! Great food and laid back atmosphere. We had reservations after an MSU football game. The place was busy, but not crowded. Our service was on the slow side, but the manager noticed (without us saying something) and made up for it. I will definitely go back and try some of the craft cocktails.

    So glad we discovered this gem of a restaurant two years after moving to the Lansing area! Fantastic and diverse menu executed very nicely. The service was spot on and our waitress was specifically informative which really helps when exploring a menu new to us. The ambience is fun and festive. Highly recommend you get there!

    Although the food was very good and had beautiful presentation, when I spend $100 on a meal for two ( no appetizers and just two beers with our entrées) and leave feeling very hungry, I can’t help but be disappointed. Maybe we need to give the breakfast a try. I’m not going to say I’d never go back yet…..
