Eastside Fish Fry & Grill - Chicken wings restaurant in Lansing - 2417 E Kalamazoo St, USA

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???!!!!

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

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.

This place has great tasting fried food. The lady who helped us was super friendly and helpful. I highly recommend the cheese curds!

I do doordash and the lady gave me attitude because I wouldn't sit down while I waited. If I wanted to sit down I would've. I don't need to sit all day long. I'm not lazy. I've never ate here. The men are always kind when I interact with them. She's made it so I don't want to come back. Maybe they should hire someone that won't tell people what to do.

One of my favorite spots to grab food in the Lansing area that I recommend to everyone. Their full wings are unbeatable and I’ve bought a tub of their seasoning. The meat always falls off the bone and I’m always nibbling at scraps at the end and scooping leftover seasoning with my finger. Yes, most of their stuff comes covered in their seasoning (which is great), but you do have the option to ask for no seasoning or less seasoning on the phone or when ordering online. I usually put even more on myself. Staff is also always friendly and helpful. I’ll continue going here whenever I’m craving chicken.

My chicken wings were hard, bland, and dry. They called me 1 minute before I entered the building, letting me know my food is ready. However, when they gave me my food, it felt cool to the touch. It seemed as if it was an old batch of chicken wings that someone didn’t pick up and they gave it to me reheated. When I called to place my order, the first person put me on hold for 10 minutes. When I called back the second person answered took my order, and was kind. The third person who called to tell me, my order was ready hung up on me. Before Covid, their food was great. After Covid, I would never recommend Eastside fish fry for chicken wings.

Love this place! Hard to find decent fish in Lansing. They do a top notch job on chicken as well. Big fan of the salmon dinner. My order has always been complete and as ordered! They are an excellent value.
