Why would they wait an hour and a half before ordering our food? Stupidity that's is why! Then the guy on the phone asked us if we still wanted the food and needless to say we said no but before we finished our response of no, he hung up on us. So disrespectful and definitely unprofessional. This is not the first time we have had difficulty either. They don't even check to make sure all the things you've ordered are in the bags before they deliver your food then argue with you about a refund because they don't want to lose money. As a professional working in the business world, I'm not sure how this service is still up and running when they do not take pride in providing adequate service. DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY (it shouldn't even be called a company)! If there was a way I could give NO STARS, I would.

I went in to get the flavor of the month which is peach cobbler and I tried it sometime last year. So I was so excited to be able to go in and get this cheesecake. It is the best cheesecake around the Lansing area. I was greeted upon walking in by a nice young lady. I browsed the menu and it had a lemon drop, blueberry, strawberry shortcake, and a few other flavors. There's not a whole lot in the main area so I am hoping that they will add tables and chairs for guest to come and be able to dine in one day. The cheesecakes are frozen but it doesn't take long to unthaw. They have a great freezer life, if you want to put it away and eat it at a later date.

Communication was great through the planning period and she arrived early to deliver the food. She even helped out with a few other non food related tasks when we didn't even ask her to do so. The food was OUTSTANDING! The absolute best catered food I have ever had. The food was very flavorful, beautifully presented and high quality. Guests raved about the food and a few went back for seconds and thirds. Having owned an event planning company and worked on planning many events that required catering service, I must say that Center of the Plate is the best I've ever worked with and apparently a best kept secret of Lansing.

I was mostly looking for ground pork because I couldn't find it anywhere in the grocery stores. But then I couldn't help but purchase some other protein - since it's so hard to find nowadays! It was an easy pick up process at the Ann Arbor warehouse with clear directions. Note that they offer pick up all throughout MI and as far as KZOO, Grand Rapids, and Bay City! Some things to consider: *The timing -- you have until the Monday of, for pick up on the following Friday. For instance, I placed my order today (5/8) for pick up on 5/15. *The meat comes frozen!

I get there give her my name and the hostesses says they're working on my food and practically chases me out of the restaurant. Which as Bravos Italian kitchen was open and near capacity by the way. So as I left I asked if I should honk as I return with my car - she chuckled. Of course i sat there for the the next 15 minutes awaiting my food in the car until I finally called the BeastBurger national headquarters who promptly forwarded me along to the Lansing restaurant. Without any apology or concern. As I expected the hostess who took my name didn't realize when my food was ready until after I called from HQ and she realized it was ready. Rushing home I excitedly opened my hot burger. It was a pile of greasy mush. starving to death I barely managed to choke it down. My wife finished a third of hers and offered the 2/3 to me and I was unwilling to eat it. The Mr. beast style fries are covered with cheese,ketchup,mayo and mustard and grease. Of course they became a Mushy orgy of blah moist potatoes. Had the fries been cooked a little more they would've been at least edible but for the smell of fish oil which was nearly unbearable. Same undercooking with the burgers. Red on the inside. I eat medium rare steaks but not burger. for me tonight.

First off, they kept stringing the driver along on when the food was going to be ready, and by the time it got out, it was all cold because of how long it was out. But it still got here, we were going to have a late dinner, but... instead of one of the sandwiches and the fried pickles, we got, instead... a note. "We're out of the Cuban. Please call blahblahblah. Sorry." My roommate has to be up in six hours for work, and you can't even just message the driver to have them tell us to pick something else or something? My roommate had to sacrifice her own dinner so the other could eat and I'm here scrambling to find her something hot and still open for delivery. Management was zero help- they immediately tried to chuck the Grubhub driver under the bus as "it's hard to get in contact with people who order about stuff like this and oftentimes the drivers end up dropping the orders because of it". You didn't even try, guys. You could have saved this with a text message or a phone call and you couldn't even do THAT. My roommate can't eat a "sorry" note, guys. After some talking, management authorized a full refund, which I suppose is the least they can do about this, and Grubhub also refunded the price of the sandwich and a five-dollar voucher for all the trouble.

What's Good This is the kind of place I generally root for…read more Locally owned, attention to ambience and identity, a focused menu that doesn't try to do too much, and an effort to make you feel welcomed. Batter Up Bistro reminds me of several places I've visited in New Orleans with a jazz trio playing ragtime as I enjoyed brunch and maybe a midday Hurricane cocktail. The interior is rustic chic while still being warm and inviting and I really enjoyed the beverages I ordered. The Apple Crisp Latte ($8) I ordered for my breakfast visit was hot and made me feel even more cozy. Apple simple syrup paired with house coffee blend and oat milk with notes of cinnamon was very pleasing to the palette without been blown away by apple flavor. The Baron ($15) was a pre-dinner cocktail with whiskey, ginger beer & liquor, almond bitters, and a hickory smoked finish. It was strong, but not breathtaking, a well-balanced flavor profile. What's Really Good Dinner service was suitable even if a bit slow, especially given the few diners that were also in attendance that evening. The bar tender was also waiting tables and while he was capable and hospitable, he clearly had too much on his plate running the front of house solo. I started with the Sea Scallop appetizer ($17). Three substantial scallops with a dill forward dusting sit atop a lovely, creamy parsnip puree. The puree was slightly sweet and the microgreens that were likely intended more as a garnish offered a nice textural note. The scallops were cooked uneven if I'm being honest where only one out of the three had a desirable brown crust and the other two were grayer. Dinner went up several notches with the Pan-seared Salmon ($32) which I ordered blackened. The fish was tender and flaky, and the blackened seasoning was right on target. The salmon paired quite well with the roasted Brussels sprouts, which themselves had a lovely char, and the wild rice. I also appreciated the accompanying blackberries which offered a touch of sweetness without compromising earthiness. Best Bite My first visit was a bit lonely as I was the only patron dining on a Thursday mid-morning. Perhaps the previous day's snowfall had scared others away, but I was itching to get out and about finding the breakfast selections a respite from winter's doldrums. I ordered the Eggs Benny ($20) with perfectly poached eggs atop their delightful house baked toast which was dense enough to hold up the thinly sliced ham, eggs, microgreens, and herbaceous hollandaise sauce. The sauce was rich and creamy with a pleasant punch of lemon and dill. The dish is served with garlic and herbed red skin breakfast potatoes and they were a hit. Also, a star was the side of thick cut bacon ($8) which was smokey and a perfect medium cook. Chef Cari came out to express her gratitude for my visit, which only made me wish more folks had joined me that day.

My father is a New Yorker and I've always cherished times in the city with him and my late…read more grandparents. Some of my earliest memories are of a slice of pie, sprinkled with extra parmesan and taking in a real ball game (full transparency, I'm a Yankees fan. Sorry, Tigers peeps). Of course, NYC is famous for many other delicacies, but chief among them are their bagels. New Yorkers take their bagels seriously- whether from a brick & mortar storefront or a tiny cart on the street, they better be fresh, doughy on the inside, and slightly crips on the outside. Often served with a cup of joe in the famous Greek themed "We are happy to serve you" cup, bagels can be eaten plain, buttered, schmeared with cream cheese, stuffed with egg, sausage, or bacon, or topped with lox, red onion, and capers. But where does one go in the greater Lansing area for authentic bagels? And can I even get a cup of coffee downtown anymore? These are real life questions I faced recently as I 1) had to do this month's review and 2) had to serve jury duty. The latter query came about last Monday as my jury pool was finally given reprieve for lunch and set loose on downtown Lansing. I never though the day would come when downtown Mason's courthouse would have more walkable coffee options than Ingham County Court on Kalamazoo St. Enter the lifesaver that is New Daily Bagel and their assortments of bagels, customized cream cheeses, sandwiches- hot & cold, and yes, coffee. After walking several blocks trying to cure my caffeine headache, I stumbled upon this shop and was greeted ever so graciously by Basil and assured that they had coffee. His soccer jersey let me know he was a fan of the beautiful game, but I enlightened him that he should root for Chelsea FC (Club World Cup Champs 2025). On my return visits, I was helped by Joseph, who was knowledgeable about the menu and kind. Michael Mahdi, who has run the business since 1987 has clearly created a family atmosphere with his staff and even still makes sandwiches himself today. What Was Necessary I'm a two cups a day kind of coffee drinker. So, when the judge finally let our jury pool out for lunch well after noon, I went full-on Indiana Jones searching for an antidote to my hankering. The iced latte with oat milk and caramel was perfectly timed for a summer afternoon and several blocks back to my return destination. At first, I was let down with only a small 12-ounce cup as the only option, but the coffee was deep and punchy. The caramel was sweet enough to not require additional sweeteners, and the oat milk proved just creamy enough to make for a lush treat. What's Really Good The bagels... honestly. I ordered several variations to get a wider perspective on what the New Daily has to offer. First, the Cinnamon Crunch Bagel ($1.89 plain) with apple cinnamon cream cheese ($4.29 including bagel) was very enjoyable. Sweet, but not overpowering with the added bliss of the crunchy topping, this bagel is pleasing. The same can be said for the Nova Lox on Garlic Bagel ($11.99). Creamy cheese combined with scallions join slices of cold-smoked salmon, red onion, and capers. The New Daily Bagel also serves it with the devil's fruit (raw tomatoes), but I politely set that aside. The garlic bagel offered a nuanced flavor profile, and the lox were slightly sweet, which was perfect with the crunch from the onion and capers. I'm a big fan of breakfast sandwiches. On most weekends, I can be found constructing them in my own kitchen. The Daily Bagel offers choice of meat on their breakfast sammies. I opted for the Bacon, Egg, and Cheese on a Cheddar Bagel ($4.19). This handheld was stuffed with fried eggs, bacon, and cheddar cheese. The bagel's own cheddar had a nice pungency to it that elevated the sandwich overall. It was nearly, better than my own because I opted for the veggie light cream cheese that brought fresh, earthy flavors to the mix. Best Bite The onion roll that accompanies The Journal ($9.35) specialty sandwich is incredible. The Journal is packed with seasoned corned beef and mustard, but the combo of mozzarella and cheddar cheese are the star. The melty mix pulls apart like pizza in a tv commercial and the yum that follows is superb.
