Lansing Restaurants

Local chefs and family-run restaurants still hold sway throughout Lansing, the state capital of Michigan. You'll have no trouble finding creative dishes made from local ingredients and a glass of craft beer to wash it down. For a hearty meal, don't hesitate to order regional classics like the olive burger or wet burrito. Downtown is a food hotspot with breweries serving pub sandwiches, Italian places bringing pizza to bubbling perfection in wood-fired ovens and tender meats emerging from smoky barbecue shacks.
