“I came to Gumps on a lunch break craving a BBQ pulled pork sandwich. I can say I’ve been here 3 times this week!! The portions are plenty!! Customers service is amazing and the food always comes out so quick!! 10/10!“

“Hands down one of the best BBQ spots in Lansing! From the moment I walked in, the service was absolutely amazing — everyone was friendly, attentive, and made me feel right at home. The food was fresh, flavorful, and the portions were generous (definitely worth every penny!). You can tell they take pride in what they do — the restaurant was spotless, the atmosphere was welcoming, and the entire experience left me beyond satisfied.“

“I haven’t been here in years. My girlfriend was craving some bbq and we decided to venture 18 minutes across town to head here. Mlk was closed so we had to drive through genesse neighborhood, but was it worth it. I don’t like to take pictures of peoples food cause it doesn’t usually do it justice when you find good food. Kayla and our kid shared a pound of brisket and baked Mac and cheese and macaroni salad. Hands down the best brisket that I’ve had in the area and the macaroni salad was insane. My kid said it was the best he’s ever eaten. As for me I opted for a chicken banh mi, everything was fresh and just what I wanted on top of the chicken being excellent on an excellent roll. We sat there with linh and talked about food as I also am in the industry about how her store used to be a phone store and me doing breakfast in the food truck. I highly recommend this place, she works by herself and cares so much about the food. Just like I do. It’s great to find another person and place like this“

“We have hosted two family bridal showers in the last 6 months. Both were wonderful experiences working with the supportive staff to ensure the showers were a magical experience for both brides. The staff was easy to work with, accommodating various requests, offering restaurant decorations and attentive during the entire event. Not only was the staff a pleasure to work with, the food was outstanding! We will host another bridal shower as soon as we have another engagement in the family!“

“I don't know where I should start but I been here for three days straight and I had been order three different dish. All of them are really good. I do recommend their curry rice dish. Second is their pork wonton noodles soup. I wish I can come back here next day to make four day stright...but unfortunately we got head back to Chicago soon.“

“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!“

“We had the ribs and they were really good with a baked potato and beans. Also the waiters Sarae gave us great service and had a lovely personality.“

“lobster roll. thumps up 👍👍“

“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.“

“Amazing place in downtown Lansing with amazing food to go with it. Service wise they sit you down really fast and the staff is always nice. A bit pricey but for the food you get to eat and make for yourself on there tabletop grill. It's a perfect date night idea“

“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.“

“We ordered rib tips and breads ticks. Both were hot and delicious. The ribs had a grilled flavor and the sauce BBQ was just right. The bread sticks came with a parmesan cheese sprinkle and a sweet homemade tasting pizza sauce. We can't wait to try their pizza next!“
