Reviews for Golden Harvest Restaurant in Lansing, MI
It's a cute little place. The building is very artsy. Everyone is friendly, the cook and our server were super awesome! The food... tasted amazing and the portions were XXL! Although the wait was over 2 hours, It was ABSOLUTELY worth it! Read more
Let me start by saying I am not one to write a review. I cringe when family or friends make a fuss at restaurants. This is... different. My husband, 5 month old, and I met another couple from the east side here, so we each had about 1.5 hour drive (weare from Grand Rapids). The food deserves 5 stars - it was super flavorful, fresh, and unique. The atmosphere is chill andgroovy, and the coffee was typical cafe coffee. HOWEVER, only the outdoor seating was open (about 5-7 tables). We arrived at11:15 and waited about 30 minutes for a table, another 15 min for our order to be taken. We ordered 4 egg sandwiches and 2French toasts. There was one table ahead of us waiting for food. We then proceeded to wait 2 HOURS FOR OUR FOOD. 1 hour into ourwait, the waiter brought out free single French toasts for everyone due to the delay. Like great, so nice, but you could havejust made the food we ordered?? After that, we didn?t receive any sort of explanation or check in from any of the staff. Wewere genuinely concerned as to what was going on in the kitchen. Did the cook leave? Did they lose our order? Did they run outof food and ran to the store? Were they making everything from scratch? At this point, we were already committed to getting ourfood. When we finally asked how much longer our food would be, the waitress left to check, came back and said our food wascurrently on the grill and should be about 10 more minutes. 25 minutes later we finally got our food and she explained that theyhave a new cook learning in the back. To top it off, a table of 2 who got there 1-1.5 hours after us got their food an hourbefore us, and had a more complicated order than our simple sandwiches and plain French toast. Our experience totaled 3 hours.The food was amazing, but we won?t be back for the lack of customer service and ungodly wait time. We are still wondering whatexactly happened today. Nothing makes sense. Read more
Best breakfast sandwich I've ever had. Kept me full all day. I loved the laid back attitude. ????
The menu says expect an hour+ wait when there's a line and includes warnings "not to be a jerk" about waiting. We didn't think... it would be an issue since there were just a few tables full when we arrived, no line, and only a few more customers came inafter us. Food still took almost an hour and a half. Tables were served out of order and not cleaned between customers. Itappeared out of the 7-8 staff, only one was working in the kitchen. Wait staff was attentive, but it was uncomfortable to hearthe polite woman at the table behind us point out to her server that other customers who had come in after her had already beenserved, eaten, and left. We ended up feeling like our time was wasted and while the food was creative and delicious, it didn'tmake up for the disrespectful customer service. Also, they're offering maybe 5-6 dishes, not the menu on their website. Ifyou're only in it for the food, the Killer sandwich was amazing ???? Read more
The service was good and the food was even better!! It was our first time and I promise it won't be our last!! Longer wait time... but was totally worth!!! Read more
I love this place but BE PREPARED TO WAIT 1-2 hours minimum for take out. Dine in is faster but not currently open. If you... aren?t willing to wait a small lifetime, skip it. I saw people getting really mad about waiting but I just say be prepared andif you don?t have the time to wait, try another day. The food is worth the wait, delicious and super fresh but just be preparedand don?t get mad at staff if it takes a long time, they are clearly doing their best Read more
We did have to wait to receive our food. However, the food was fantastic and the customer service was great. The potatoes were... extremely flavorful and the breakfast sandwich was heavenly. It was truly worth the wait!! I hope you set up online ordering. Read more
