Beggar's Banquet is a long-standing restaurant that generally offers good service and a pleasant atmosphere. The restaurant has been known to get crowded, especially on game days, but the service remains commendable.
The menu offers a variety of options, such as the Red Cedar Benne, which includes eggs, potatoes, and smoky salmon cake, and the Cali Benne, which features an English muffin, hollandaise, and a warm tomato. However, the warm tomato on the Cali Benne was not favored by one of the reviewers. The hollandaise sauce was also said to be overpowered by the tomato's warmth.
The restaurant's duck dish was found to be disappointing, while the burger was generally liked but overcooked. It is suggested to emphasize the preferred level of doneness if ordering a burger. The French toast, though not tried by the reviewers, was recommended for future visits.
Pricing is on the higher end, and parking in downtown East Lansing can be challenging, but there are several parking lots available. Despite these minor issues, the overall experience at Beggar's Banquet has been enjoyable for most visitors.
