Eastside Fish Fry & Grill

Best place in the City of Lansing, even the tri-county area for wings... and everything else on their menu.

Look, the food is amazing! Whoever is working Tuesday nights, bravo. But the wait times are ridiculous. I ordered at 6:49, Uber eats said it was ready for pickup at 7:32. I didn’t get my food in my hands until 8:06… Let’s get some better estimates on those pickup times. Maybe the menu is too large, or the staff is not properly trained, but even the hottest restaurants in the country don’t take over an hour to make food - fresh or not. And my slice of carrot cake was not big enough lol

It was our first time there. Love the food. I recommend you try it.

I got an order of the chicken liver meal. And the chicken liver was burnt so bad that I couldn’t taste nothing else. It was so hard to chew. I been wanting to try this for weeks and I just got off work myself and didn’t want to cook but in the end I had to make some food because I couldn’t eat it. The fries was hard too.

Had the following delivered from Eastside Fish Fry and Grille 12 piece fried chicken—terribly overcooked, dry, skin overcooked to point it had a burnt taste, ordered with house seasoning Fried Scallops—overcooked, dried out and stringy ordered with no seasoning Fried frog leg dinner—overcooked, stringy frog legs, fries were ok just a bit too greasy Fried alligator tail bites—again overcooked making them dried out, stringy, the fry batter was on the bites was very hard from being overcooked Crab cakes—a bit overcooked, had a good taste except for the fry batter on outside of cake ordered with no seasoning Fried Mac n cheese—good taste, still a bit overcooked. I’m think the taste is there, pretty cheesy ordered with no seasoning on outside. Cheese curds—overcooked little cheese left inside of batter casiing All the fried foods had an odd old kind of taste to them, like perhaps the oil needed changing or the fryer needed a thorough steam cleaning I was terribly disappointed. We had been really looking forward to these items. With the service fee, delivery charge, and tip I spent $166.98. We hardly ate any of it. My daughter tried to eat two pieces of alligator bites before she gave up due to how bad it tasted. My son-in-law had half of a frog leg, set it down then tried another and gave up due to the taste, dryness, and stringiness. My scallops were inedible. I tried four different pieces before I gave up The only reason I gave them two stars is because the portion sizes were very nice. I ordered this at 4:30 pm in the afternoon on a Thursday. You wouldn’t think they would lose track of frying times that early in the evening would you???!!!!

Great food would rate a 4.5, A suggestion would be ordering ahead of time to avoid a 15-20 wait time. Great service though. Vegetarian options: Not many maybe 2 - 3 at most.

Parking: Easy to park here.

Best fish fry in Lansing

Delicatessen vibe but for fresh fish fry and what you would consider a deep fried American-Southern Style

I ordered online delivery. I got the 1/2 and 1/2 which comes with 4 wings, 1/2 pound catfish nuggets and a dinner roll. I also paid $1 for tartar sauce. I’m disappointed because this is the second time I have not gotten a dinner roll and I also did not get the tartar sauce.
