Best Authentic Restaurants in Lansing/Leavenworth

Originally had planned for a quick Happy Hour, but after reading the menu...we opted for a full dinner. Pasta Bolognese and Sausage Pizza. Extraordinary tastes.

Our celebration dinner was a perfect mix of excellent food, a beautiful space and welcoming service. Always a pleasure to go to Paris, and this was no exception. The shrimp appetizer was unlike any we have experienced elsewhere and it was delicious. Salads were fresh and tasty, especially the beets with goat cheese. Pomegranate arils were a perfect sweetness to counter the goat cheese. Our four entrees were all exceptional, and we shared tastes around the table. Salmon, halibut, scallops and lamb shanks. The side of Brussels sprouts was perfectly cooked, simple but tender and flavorful. Then dessert to round out the meal: a glass of port, a sundae, olive oil cake, and my favorite: the best baklava I’ve ever had.

Food is amazing! The Strozzapreti and Chicken Parm were outstanding. Also they expanded the restaurant since I had last been there and it's much bigger. I wish the happy hour was available throughout the restaurant as opposed to just the bar area.

We had a lovely dinner! In addition to great cocktails and delicious food, I’d like to send a special thanks to our waitress, Chellie. She made the evening even more enjoyable.

Great food and service. We dine here often. They also have live music.
