19 Best Barbeque Restaurants near East Lansing

“Showed up near the end of the day. Takoyaki, Pokebowls, Katsu chicken, Donburi, and Spicy and non-spicy chicken Ramen.
The service was great, friendly, and no rush.
Food was amazing.
Can not recommend this Ramen shop highly enough.
It's a good sign when all of the dishes end up empty.“

“BAPS is easily one of the best Korean BBQ spots in the area. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, and the variety of sides they bring out is honestly amazing. Their kimchi is especially incredible — perfectly flavorful, fresh, and honestly some of the best I’ve had. I also love that they have so many great non-BBQ dishes, so there’s something for everyone. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and all of the waitresses are incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming which makes the whole experience even better. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. Every time I go, the service and food are consistently incredible. Highly recommend if you want delicious food and an all-around great dining experience!“

“The best BBQ. I love meat platter. The pork belly sandwich is amazing.“

“Fred knows how to take care of his customers. He made a mistake admitted it and made it right. Highly recommend. Thank you for the awesome food and service.“

“I have eaten Gump’s for breakfast (Breakfast Burrito with brisket), for lunch (Meat Bowl with Mac n cheese with pulled pork) and I highly recommend. The food is so so good, the portions are generous and the service/staff are fantastic! Their hours are 8am - 2pm Monday-Friday but holds up really well if you buy it at lunchtime to eat at dinner time. Super yummy!“

“We did the holiday meal for Christmas Eve. This was our first time getting Capital City BBQ and the owner was great to work with and the food was delicious. We thought it was an amazing deal and everyone enjoyed dinner. What an amazing way to spend Christmas Eve, relaxed and not cooking all day. thank you!“

“Tender and delicious pulled pork with great homemade sides and sauces. Hidden gem for sure!!“

“just as good as I expected“

“Great BBQ! The owner is awesome! Check them out!“

“Went into REO Town to get a late lunch at Good Truckin’ Diner. But, apparently open til 3 doesn’t mean taking orders til 3. So we went down to Saddleback BBQ and we had zero regrets! When we walked in, the staff was very friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate my senior citizen mother. The pulled pork sandwiches were delicious and the service was excellent. I highly recommend!“

“The bread on these subs are so good. We loved the combinations of flavors. The vegetarian options are outstanding. No joke, this is probably the best hoagie I've ever had. As a bonus, they have really fabulous ice cream and chips. Get the subs toasted! The bread is still soft.“

“Amazing service!! Maddie is the best bartender EVER!“

“Wonderful Thanksgiving meal...thank you!!!!“

“Stopped in while home visiting, it is now on my list of things to do while I'm home! Keeping doing what you do Jeff Jones! I will see you again my next trip.“

“I took my mom to the Edgewood Blvd Lansing one yesterday 5.10.24 at 4:15 pm and the food was fabulous. Better than it ever has been. I haven't ever complained about their food and last night was no different, but whatever they did it was all cooked way above perfection. I have not gone anywhere that I can remember and had such an amazing meal as last nights. I usually save some to take home to the hubby, but not this time. I ate it all except a dog scrap piece 😆(that's what the waitress called it). I got the 6oz sirloin (med well) and ribs & mom got the sirloin and shrimp. The ribs were extremely tender and the sirloin was so juicy and perfect. The ribs are always delicious, but will still have just a touch of dryness to them. Last night the meat was flaky and fell off the bone with barely a touch. The service was excellent too. I can't remember our waitresses name, but very friendly and right on top of it. Even my mom said the waitress did a good job. Last night was definitely worth the over-tip. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🌟“

“I was at the Watershed Saturday to have drinks and dinner with my Nephew. The food and staff was amazing. Also want to give a shout out to whoever found my wallet and turn it into Sabrina. Thank you for your honesty.“

“Our server, Sarae, was so good! Fast, efficient, and FUN! She took great care of us and we will definitely ask for her next time! Thanks, Sarae!!!“

“If you're looking for authentic, mouth-watering BBQ in the Holt and Lansing, MI area, Gravity Smokehouse is a must-visit. From the moment you walk in, the aroma of perfectly smoked meat lets you know you're in for a treat. Their Texas-style brisket is tender and packed with flavor, and the ribs are fall-off-the-bone delicious. A standout side is their corn casserole, which is the perfect complement to the savory meats. The staff is friendly and provides great service, making for a welcoming and comfortable dining experience. Whether you're a local or just passing through, Gravity Smokehouse offers a true taste of incredible BBQ. They also offer a full catering service and have a food truck for events, making it easy to enjoy their delicious food wherever you are. This is one of the best BBQ spots around and a definite go-to for anyone who appreciates quality smoked meats.“

“Pizza came quicker than expected, food was REALLY delicious. Tasted fresh, fresh ingredients and the sauce tasted homemade like you could taste the tomato in it.

I was in town for a weekend. It was kinda late so I ordered pizza. Seeing that Happy’s was one of the few open in the area. I ordered from them. Wish there was one where I live. Found my new favorite pizza place. In Lansing anyway.“
