    The atmosphere here is like walking into an Old Western bar that happens to sell bbq. The dark…read morelighting very much has a candle light feel to it. I ordered the Logg Sampler Platter ($56). This comes with 4 meats, 4 sides, and 4 pieces of Cornbread. I got Pulled Pork, Brisket, Smoked Wings, and Ribs ($8 upcharge) for my meats. For the sides I got Mac N Cheese, Bbq Pit Beans, Mashed Potatoes, and Spicy Creamed Corn. Overall everything was good and well cooked. From best to least it was Ribs, Brisket, Smoked Wings, and then the Pulled Pork. I would get the ribs and brisket again, but probably pass on the wings and pulled pork. The Bbq beans were only okay, oddly enough as cold leftovers they were much better. The Mac N Cheese was okay, but I wouldn't get it again. The Mashed Potatoes were very good. The spicy Cream Corn was excellent, they weren't lying it has a spicy kick! Funny enough the best thing was the Cornbread. It was fantastic, some of the best I've had. The worst thing? The sauces. They all were not good at all. The most tolerable one is their regular sauce, still a c minus. The service was good, but I was asked how I was doing about a hundred times. Still everyone was friendly. Overall a 4 star review. Would I return? If I was in Lansing then Yes. It is quality bbq cooked by someone with skill. I just might bring my own bbq sauce.

    I enjoyed a Reuben Sandwich at Willi's Smokehaus & Deli and it was, by far, the best Reuben I've…read moreever had. The new owners renovated the business from a store to a store/deli, offering delicious sandwiches, beer, soda , prepackaged German meats and delightful displays of various items. A perfect place for a perfect sandwich!

    Worth Browsing, but I'd Skip the Food…read more Willi's Sausage is part meat market, part general store and part sausage diner--and unfortunately, it feels like it hasn't quite decided what it wants to be in the middle of a very tourist-focused market. We stopped in specifically hoping to get a good German bratwurst. What we received was much more like a hot-dog-style sausage than what we would consider a traditional bratwurst. It was good enough, but it definitely wasn't the authentic German brat we were hoping to find. It tasted more like something you might purchase prepackaged from a grocery-store deli than a fresh brat from a specialty sausage shop. We also ordered a pickle, which was actually very flavorful. It was served whole in a Ziploc bag, which was a little unexpected, and while the flavor was good, the skin was extremely tough. The biggest disappointment was the disconnect between the meat market and the food being served. With the sausages and other products displayed in the meat cases, based on their in store sign, we expected something fresh and house-made. Instead, our meal gave us the impression that many of the prepared ingredients may be purchased premade rather than being the same type of homemade products the market appears to specialize in. We sat at a quaint, little table where we were served after we ordered at the counter. The staff was nice but not overly friendly. There's an opportunity here to make the food counter a showcase for what's being sold in the butcher cases--fresh sausages cooking, great smells filling the store and customers getting to taste the products before taking some home. That would make the whole concept come together. As it is, I'm not sure Willi's has a firm grasp on its identity yet. I'd still stop in while exploring Frankenmuth to browse the store and meat market, but based on our experience, I'd skip eating here and look elsewhere for a good German

    10/10 food + 10/10 Ambience!…read more This was our first time here and we loved it! We went during the lunch special. We got 1 lamb shank and 2 beef briskets. We ended up having a lot of leftovers to take home! Looking forward to our next visit so we can try the other things on the menu!

    I visited as a solo diner today. Place didn't meet my expectations from what I've seen on social…read moremedia. It was still a decent experience for the most part though. It was very quiet as I was the only diner for the beginning of my visit. When I walked in I was asked if I was dining in or carrying out and if it was my first time. I said dine in and yes, this is my first time then proceeded to scan the QR code at the hostess stand. She said yes scan that and when you're ready you can order up there and we will bring it to you. I went up to the counter and ordered the lb of brisket. I went to my table and waited. It wasn't very long that she brought over 4 sauces, Cole slaw, mashed potatoes and a cucumber and tomato salad. I asked her what the sauces were. I had hot sauce, barbecue sauce, a red salsa and a green salsa and the meat came soon after. She came and checked on me a few times. She was attentive. I went back to the menu on my phone to prepare for a carryout order. I noticed that the menu showed other sauces. I asked her for the chimichurri sauce. She brought it. A larger party ended up being seated close to me. I noticed that they had additional sides and sauces. When she came back I asked her about the sides because I wasn't interested in trying the other sauces that I saw on the menu. She stated that when a person is dining alone they only get all of the sides if they request them. So now I'm a bit annoyed. If I've already told you that this was my first time then why wouldn't you at least tell me what you have and let me decide? Don't just assume what sides I want. If these sides automatically come with my food why do I have to request them anyways? If Im a first time visitor how am I supposed to know what to ask for without you giving me any options? I don't believe in wasting food so I'm ok with not just giving a solo person everything but at least make sure that I know what is available to me. Give me the option to pass on it. It's not ok for you to choose for me, especially since it comes with my meal anyways. I initially thought that some items may be swapped out on certain days so I didn't question it. Never thought that it's just not being offered to me. I placed a carryout order for a friend. After it was packed up I asked questions this time. Sadly, it was the same thing. They left out what they felt like leaving out. I had to specifically ask for the missing items. After checking the bag I realized that he didn't get the same sauces that I had, he had no hot peppers and no mashed potatoes even though I advised them that this was for someone else and I wanted to make sure they had the food that they paid for. They had no issue giving it after I asked but I shouldn't have to do that if you're advertising these things that come with your meal. Who knows what else I missed trying because I didn't know to specifically ask. Overall the space is nice and the food was good. Just make sure you ask all the questions and don't assume that you're getting everything you paid for. Sadly you might have to specifically ask for it.
