a sign for a mediterranean food restaurant
Don W.

I've been working in the west side of Lansing for quite some time. How in the heck I've missed this place for so long is a mystery. Corner business, easy in easy out, lots of parking space. Ordering is kinda like a Qdoba restaurant. If you aren't familiar with that here's the basics..... 1. Choose a bowl with no bread, a sandwich wrap on pita bread, or a sandwich on panini bread. 2. Choose your filler like meat (shawarma) or vegetarian (falafel). 3. Choose up to 5 toppings like hummus, turnips, garlic sauce, tabooli. They also have premium toppings like feta cheese or hearty toppings like extra meat. A few desserts and drink options round out the menu. Prices are pretty average for middle eastern food. $6 - $7 for a sandwich, sides are $3 - $4, and drinks are $2. I got a chicken shawarma sandwich, side of chips and hummus, and a large drink for $11. I barely finished it all and it tasted better and was healthier than my usual $10 lunch. Place was clean, not busy, and food was fresh. One of the better shawarma sandwiches I've had in the area. Lots of seating inside or get it to go. The only reason I left it a 4 star was because of the staff. The manager was great but the other workers would have been better flipping burgers. They don't know much about the food and are just making what you order. They were polite and tried their best but you could sense their lack of knowledge about middle eastern food. I will definitely be back to try all the options!

This was delicious! The restaurant was clean and inviting. The staff were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. The food was fresh and full of flavor! I will continue to eat at this location when in the area. Great place for customizable Mediterranean food.

Love my meal and very clean place!

See all

I went in for Tabouli and they said they couldn't serve it because it was moldy. That tells you everything you need to know.

Great place to grab a quick meal and I almost always have leftovers for lunch the next day. Staff is great. I wouldn't change a thing.

Meh. Too expensive for such rigid choice selection. Had an eggplant wrap - was ok. Pass on future visits.

Middle Eats came to my gym as a catering event, and I have never had a tastier bowl in my life. The…read morebest healthy treat after my workout, served by the kindest staff. The chicken tasted high quality, and good meat is a such a core part of restaurants. They workers encouraged me to try their favorites- I would have never put hummus, garlic, pickles, or sauces in my bowl, but they ended up making for the best bowl ever. Happy to say I have clearly found a new favorite spot in East Lansing.

Fall is a hectic time in the Beverly household. Hot on the heels of what felt like the fastest…read more summer of all time, the chaos that is melding work, school, sports, and community schedules is live and direct. With four girls all at different stages of life, my much better half and I are typically frenetic throughout the week and certainly don't slow down on the weekends. We also have an additional challenge of working on MSU's campus and living on the westside- which, I'm sure I don't have to tell any of our readers, has been so much fun with construction. Some days, I crisscross the city six different times with meetings, practices, games, school fun nights, and family obligations. All of this means, that time for cooking at home can be limited and the energy to do so is even less. Even when I have my act together enough to make multiple meals ahead on a Sunday, the luxury of even thirty additional minutes at home and not warming a meal for starving adolescents seems sublime. We are often guilty of choosing the quicker option of dining out/take out, which brings on transactional costs in health and quality. So where does one find quick, healthier food options? Enter Middle Eats, the Warren, MI- based food chain that specializes in Mediterranean food which opened in Frandor in August of 2024. A cousin of chicken hot spot, Wing Snob, the endeavor aims to be fast, fresh, and healthy with its combination of bowls, wraps, and salads. They also strive to be convenient by offering a drive-thru option and online ordering to expedite their service. The full menu is customizable much like national branded fast Mexican assembly line chains, but absent the ability to watch your food as its prepared. What's Good The Spicy Chicken Shawarma Wrap ($8.99) was stout. Packed with shredded chicken that was tender and flavorful, pita chips, lettuce, grilled onions (optional, $.99), pickles, garlic spread, and spicy Dillio sauce. Dillio sauce is a yogurt-based dressing with garlic, shallots, lemon juice, and dill. The sauce was yummy but not overpowering nor overly fiery. A reasonably priced handheld that is big on yum and fills the hunger pangs. Not as healthy, but also high on the tasty factor are the Loaded Shawarma Fries ($11.99). I ordered them with steak ($2.00) and I was not happy I did. Thick cut, carnival style fries are topped with meat, feta cheese, diced onions, jalapeños, tomato (none for me thanks), and spicy Dillio sauce. This dish was large enough to share amongst the family, and we had leftovers. The added bonus was the pita bread on the bottom that soaks up all the delicious drippings. What's Really Good Middle Eats will be a go-to at our house for years to come because of their bowls. Whether you choose rice or lettuce as a foundation, you can load up the rest of the bowl with plenty of protein and veggies from a wide variety. My wife ordered the Falafel Bowl ($12.99) which a strong choice for vegetarians. Crisp, lightly fried falafel (deep fried balls of ground chickpeas and herbs) are joined by your choice of hummus and/or garlic spread, regular or spicy Dillio sauce, and then lettuce, feta, onions, rice, pickles, and tomatoes. The falafel was satisfying in both the exterior crunch and the warm and fluffy interior. The herbaceous flavors melded well with the hummus and veggies. Additional upcharges include cucumber, eggplant, or grilled peppers. On a previous lunch visit with a colleague, I ran into a high school friend who was there with her daughter who didn't have school that day. She revealed that Middle Eats has become their restaurant of choice for Mediterranean fare because of the convenience and value. My teammate and I both ordered bowls, him the Chicken Shawarma ($12.99) and I the Surf & Turf ($21.33). Both of us were satisfied and with the heaping mounds of meat and veggies and the accompanying sauces. Best Bite A special nod this month goes to the Fire Grilled Shrimp ($6.99/Skewer). Plump and juicy with just a touch of kick, but a ton of flavor, these crustaceans rival many of the top seafood and steakhouses in the area. Added to a salad or bowl and they are incredible, but also divine on their own atop a bed of rice. I look forward to finding time to enjoy Middle Eats Fire Grilled Shrimp in new ways including in wraps or on loaded fries.
