There are NO deli's that I aware of in Grand Rapids. Once upon a time there was at least one that…read morewas pretty good. Long gone. If you want corned beef or pastrami, greasy grocery store deli meat just doesn't cut it. Checking Yelp delis. I looked in every direction and decided to drive to East Lansing as my corned beef withdrawal pains were getting worse. Stateside Deli sits in a shopping plaza a few miles southeast from MSU. When we arrived both booths and tables were available just after the lunch rush. Just guessing, i'd say there are between 25-30 tables and booths. Even though I didn't need to, I studied the menu knowing that I would probably only get corned beef or pastrami. The soups however looked great as well. I ordered my corned beef extra lean partially as a test and mostly because that is how I like it. Served on toasted rye, that' is exactly how it came. My first bites were euphoric. It only got better. My wife ordered half a sandwich (tuna melt on wheat) along with matzah ball soup. She loved hers as well. I can tell because both the bowl and plate were empty when she was done. She will often not finish if the food is "just OK" Service was excellent and "seamless". One server saw my drink almost empty and quickly returned with another. Another server asked if we needed anything as she was walking by. Our server also kept checking with us to see if we needed anything or if we were enjoying our lunch. If this is the closest deli, so be it. We will be back as often as practical. Only drawback is the hour drive each way and approximately $28 worth of gas.

The produce section is beautiful offering many staple items and cauliflower as big as my head! The desserts are mind blowing, chocolate, fruit, cake, rolls, tarts, gluten free...all bases are covered here! There is even a soup stand with at least 6-8 selections, to-go foods both cold and warm. Lunch options, dinner options, snacks...it's all available there! Lastly the dog treats, they are homemade and brought in by the baker/owner of the small local business on a regular basis. Several items in the store are sourced locally and the prices are comparable to other stores, maybe a little more for specialty items. All team members encountered are willing to help and answer questions and everyone was smiling and in a genuine good mood. Rare! There is legit something for everyone and they are now on my weekly list of stops to make!

It's very welcoming it's just a little worn, but clean. Warning: This place orders like Culvers. Order at the counter and they'll give you a number and bring the food out to you. Everything is ordered individually, so if you want fries wirh your burger, you need to order fries. I ordered the Kolossal Regular Burger ($10). This has mustard, ketchup, plckle & onion on their largest burger patty. The burger was excellent. The meat is of excellent quality and has a very fresh and clean taste. The onions and pickles were very fresh and tasty. The bun was a little weak, but tasted good. This burger currently slips into my Michigan burger ranking at #9. I order the chili cheese fries ($7) with my burger. The fries were good crinkle cut fries, however the chili was very meh. Lastly I ordered a large Chocolate Shake ($6). This shake was fantastic! Easily one of the top 5 shakes I've gotten. The service was excellent! Everyone was super friendly and happy. I always prefer visiting places where people like their job. Overall an easy 5 star review! Would I return? Absolutely!
