Michigan Spot Named America’s Best ‘Diners, Drive-Ins, And Dives’

While you can find a restaurant in Michigan to satisfy any cuisine you’re craving, stopping by a Guy Fieri-approved spot is always worth the trip. And one of the best Triple D spots in America is in the Great Lakes state.

Michigan Spot Named America’s Best ‘Diners, Drive-Ins, And Dives’

Eastside Fish Fry & Grill in Lansing was crowned Michigan’s Triple D gem not only for the food, but for serving the community in other ways. Food Network says:

The Lansing, Michigan, spot was featured in Season 27, and owner Henry Meyer even shared the recipe for Eastside’s chicken wings, as well as its famous chicken gizzards. The fresh fish and shrimp dinners are certainly just as impressive, but what makes this fish fry and Triple D spot so important is the hiring philosophy. As a formerly incarcerated person, Henry hires and trains fellow formerly incarcerated people to help them get a second chance and start a career in the food industry.
