I would highly recommend getting a slice of pizza as you walk around because I tried some and it was delicious. Everything is clearly labeled and again it was so easy to get lost. I was told that sometimes they have live music events there too. If you're in the area of Lansing Michigan, I would highly recommend stopping here.

Got there 30 minutes after opening and there was a 45 minute wait. So today we were in the area and thought we would try again. To our disbelief we were sat at a table immediatly. Lucky us, I thought. We first ordered beverages. When the waitress returned, we ordered an appetiser of Arancini to start off and also our main dinners which included soup or salad. We both love arancini and haven't had any since we moved from Florida last October. I will admit we are used to having Sicilian style which usually is filled with rice, saffron, meat and vegetables, like peas. To our surprise the salads came out first. We both ordered a ceaser salad which was over whelmed with parmesan cheese and very little lettuce. The Arancini arrived and there was five perfectly round what tasted like cheese balls. Some white rice with lots of cheese filling laying in a bowl of marinara sauce. We each had one ball. My entree of chicken Marsala arrived with a side of Fettuccine Alfredo. Basically it tasted like chicken with mushroom gravy. Very unappealing. The Alfredo sauce was flat, no flavor. My wife's Penne with Pesto lacked pesto. Tasted good but could of used more Pesto. I just have to say that this was the most lackluster Italian dinner I honestly have ever had. I really just don't understand the high reviews. I guess it wasn't our lucky day.

You can try anything you'd like, all their liquors are made in house and there are plans to expand to beer and wine eventually. On certain days (mostly Saturdays I believe), they have a food truck parked outside for purchase, which goes nicely with their drinks. Their spirits are carefully made in very small batches. I highly recommend giving them a shot, they're just a super cute little distillery on Saginaw Highway in Grand Ledge, a very small town on the outskirts of Lansing. I sampled pretty much everything they had and landed on a vodka tonic as the drink I bought. I was excited because they have the same ice machine I have, which makes little bullet shaped ice cubes! The owner/manager gave me a tour of the facility and showed me how everything was made. It was a short tour, just the one room with the one working machine. That's how small batch these liquors are.

I will say, don't come if you have any kind of schedule to keep. Whatever they tell you the wait is on food orders will easily be double. Also, they never remember all parts of the order. I had the avocado forgotten on my breakfast bowl not just once... or twice... but three times, might've even been four but I lost count. Yesterday, the avo was remembered (yay!) but they forgot my brother's side of bacon. They never have butter knives available to cut your food. No actual cream in the coffee creamer cooler on the counter. Makes for many unwanted trips back up to the counter. Again, the food was delicious and I still think it's a neat place worth trying, but seems to have several issues each visit. I'm sure we'll be back, but for now we are going to explore some other options around town for our brunch meetup.

Once seated, service was excellent and responsive even though every table was full. We got 2 mocktails, which I'll admit seemed a little steep for the size but were very good! The biscuits and gravy were phenomenal. The gravy was thick, loaded with sausage and was a generous portion to go with the crisp and fluffy biscuits. I ordered a side of bacon, and it was the most perfect bacon I've ever ordered. SO CRISPY but not burnt! Usually breakfast places give you weak floppy bacon; not here. The PetalPop pancake was adorable and delicious. The pancake was tall and fluffy with a slightly crispy outside. I'm so happy to see such a cute place in (near) downtown Lansing.
