Food is great. Ordering via EatStreet service is terrible. We ordered and came to pick up and they didn't prepare our food. La Marsa staff blamed EatStreet and didn't process the order because it had baba ghanoush which they don't serve. If you don't serve it why is it on the online menu? When asked why we weren't called about the issue staff said EatStreet didn't provide the number. Why use a terrible ordering service? Again food is great but if you can't order it and get it when you need it, what's the point?
Coming from someone who has driven back to Brighton for the last 5 years for LaMarsa, it pains me to say that we will have to continue to make that drive. First of all, it's a limited menu in East Lansing compared to the actual full restaurant. Knowing that, I still placed an order, only to be severely disappointed. For starters, what is this flat and tasteless pita they have here? The Brighton location has amazing pita cooked in a wood-fire oven that puffs up nicely and tastes so good! So while you may save my waistline with this sub-par pita, it requires extra hummus and garlic sauce to make it edible, so maybe not. The hummus and garlic sauce are good though. Also good is the fattoush salad with the shish tawook chicken....although the portion sizes are not as good. The regular sized salad is the same size as the small salad in Brighton. The crushed lentil soup has good flavor, but it's runny....not thicker like in Brighton. So overall, save your money and let your taste buds salivate on a road trip to Brighton! Also, my original takeout order did not include the 2 bowls of lentil soup that I paid for. I turned around to get the soup and they hadn't even made it for my order and forgotten to give it to me. I still had to wait for them to make it. So it took 45min and 2 trips to the restaurant for them to fulfill an order of a salad with chicken and soup. Just absurd.
Love La Marsa! Our favorite is the full order of deboned chicken. Hummus is among the best in the area. And can't forget the garlic sauce.
The *best* Mediterranean food I've found in Lansing! Chicken is flavorful, lentil soup is perfect, rice with almonds is *chefs kiss*, and really good salads/dressing.My only complaint is the portion size of the grilled vegetables side. The first time I ordered, they forgot it completely and the second time, I only get a slice or two of pepper and a small chunk of onion. Pretty disappointing.

I've been looking for a good chicken shawarma that taste like back home and I've finally found it. I just ordered my food through grubhub and its already gone. Wish I bought two. You guys have now found a loyal customer. Will be ordering from you guys again.
