As the pitcher Joaquín Andújar once said, "You can sum up the game of baseball in one word: 'You…read morenever know.'" What's true of baseball is true of East Lansing college town restaurants. You walk in past a minimalist brick facade and suddenly you're in a vibrant, poster-plastered world with a cozy fireplace. The Bulgogi Bibimbap was a masterclass in variety--I counted exactly 10 ingredients: crisp lettuce, white cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, bean sprouts, radish, kale, corn, red beans, and a perfect soft egg. It's less of a bowl and more of a colorful ecosystem of flavors. Meanwhile, the Korean pork taco was a delicious surprise. Pro Tip: Next time I'd try their Korean ice cream pops. I went in for a quick bite and left feeling like I'd just found my new Asian comfort food spot in the home of the Spartans.

All of their protein options are good. The menu is very versatile and lets you choose your combo of what you want to eat/try. It's a chill place to dine in and relax for a bit before moving onto the next thing. Service has always had a smile and been helpful with any questions or service I need.

The inside is less interesting. If you want to sit inside you have to order at a kiosk and it's credit card only. If you want to pay cash you'll need to go through the drive through. Everything is very clean and there is a certain charm to the place, maybe nostalgia. I ordered the Bacon Ring Bbq Burger combo ($10). This is two thin 1/8 pound burger patties, mayo, lettuce, tomatoes with onion rings and bacon. This definitely is a fast food burger and needs to be compared to that. In that aspect it is top notch. Way better than any of the corporate giants. For a fair price. If you want to compare to the better burger sit down restaurants it does drop a little bit, but would still be in my top 15 for sure and maybe my top 10. The fries are very good, nothing super special, just above average done very well. I got a chocolate shake ($3), like the fries it's an above average shake done extremely well and very thick. Lastly I ordered a Pulled Pork sandwich ($5) for later. This was very good, especially since it was a reheated sandwich. Definitely the best pulled pork sandwich from a fast food place I've ever had for one of the best prices. The staff was very friendly and seemed very efficient. Overall a 5 star review. If I lived in the area I would be here all the time for a meal before or after work? Would I return? Absolutely? I may not live close, but if I'm in the area it definitely would be on my list to partake.

This place has been on my radar for a couple weeks now, since the popped up on a breakfast search…read more It's a bit of a drive for me, but I made it a point to get by as soon as I could because what's better than waffles and chicken?? First, the location. I had doggo with me so went through the drive through. There is signage, but you still have to look for it. Drive through is on the back side of the building. Don't be scared, it was an easy process. The hardest part was figuring out what to order! Second, Service was quick and friendly but the speaker is a bit quiet, so be sure to turn your radio down so y'all can hear each other. The price! I ordered the #1 chicken and waffles plate and added on a small ice caramel coffee for a grand total of UNDER $12. That's extremely reasonable, imo. Finally, I ordered the chicken and waffles that I'd been staring at the past few weeks. The chicken tenders were crispy, hot, and perfectly seasoned so as not to overshadow the waffles. The waffle was fresh and hot, not too sweet, and complemented the chicken and syrup. The iced caramel coffee, while sweet, didn't make me feel like I was just drinking sugar. I could still taste the coffee, and it wasn't bitter either! So, basically, don't miss a visit to Elsa's!! So yummy and a local business. Support local!!
