Best Place to Eat in Lansing written by rmyers

We've been to Mitchell's many times. Usually as a couple, but occasionally with a small group of friends. The food has always been excellent. The ambiance rating would be much higher, but the last couple of times we were in there we had problems with fruit flies. Highly recommended to all.

Good, but expensive written by nick

I've been here several times for both lunch and dinner and always had a good experience. The food is pretty good and is worth trying.

They have a patio that's open in the summer and I've never had to wait long for a table. They have a bar area, but it's completely separate from the rest of the restaurant and seems out of place.

The service during my last visit was disappointing. Nothing terrible, but our waiter seemed to have trouble focusing on the task at hand.

We got the clams for an appetizer and they were good but definitely not worth the $10 we paid for them. This seems to be the one downside to Mitchell's, like most restaurants in Eastwood it's a little expensive for what you get.

Overrated and overpriced, the food at Mitchell's ranges from very good to downright awful. But it's the service that makes this place an absolute disaster -- I've been there only twice, and both times my order (and/or my date's) has been dramatically wrong, and the last time, the rudeness of the staff to correct it and bring me what I ordered was outrageously unprofessional. This place is horrendous. You want better tasting, better prepared fish, served by people who know what they're doing? Try Cadillac Club or Bravo. But don't go here.

Have beent to Mitchells over 25 times since they have opened, with just two of ua and with as many as eight. Waitstaff has always been friendly and prompt, and no charge for splitting a meal. Favorites include raw Ahi tuna and Ginger Crusted Salmon (formerly Wasabi Salmon and still plenty spicy). We also like the beefsteak tomato salad, and often go for the creme brulee. The bigger cold seafood sampler (oysters & etc.) is not worth the cost. We have tried a dozen main dishes, and have never been disappointed (though we have honed in on a few favorites). Treating waitstaff with respect and courtesy seems to always pay off...here and elsewhere.

The best fresh fish in Lansing! written by kladd27

The other reviewers didn't seem to like this place. However, I have been to Mitchell's at least 20 times, always had great service, friendly and attentive. The food is to die for! Outside of Maine or Hawaii, this is the best fish I've had!

Nice place written by Sparty

High priced, in my opinion, yes.
However, I am not a big fish person.
I like this place as it is clean, staff is very friendly/helpful and there is plenty of parking.
This place gives me the feel of actually eating in a Boston fish market. I like that.
Smokers are segregated! I like that also.
