Mancinos - South Cedar — Restaurant in Lansing

I remember when the F&M plaza was being built. F&M, Radio Shack. I had never seen a place like American Bulk Food at that time! They had every gummie candy ever made. New China restaurant. Harmony House.

In the corner was this little place called Mancinos. And 30 years later they would become the last of the original stores still standing at F&M plaza. Does anyone even remember it as F&M plaza besides me?

Mancinos is always good. But anyone can write a food review so when you see me not talking about food, i want it to understood as to why. I simply want to talk about something other reviews arent, or something they simply may not be aware of.

When the Mancinos in F&M plaza first opened, Bristol Square was still around. (If anyone remembers what Bristol Square even is.) You could walk from Mancinos to Bristol Square in about 5 minutes. The fact one place is around while one is unheard of is the context of what im saying.

Does it matter? Yes. Its just too few have the scope to appericate the reality of what happened. Even though it played out in public for anyone to see if they care to look.

Ive watched. I know. Its hard to hold on. Thank you Mancinos...

I have NEVER been treated so rudely by a business owner as I was today. All because I parked in a spot that was apparently a no parking area, however this no parking area is not labeled with a sign or asphalt painting. He waited until my friend & I ordered & paid before saying anything to me about moving my vehicle. I said oh ok I'm sorry I didn't know, I'll move it. I was getting a to-go order but he couldn't even wait until my order was done for me to move my vehicle. I was getting my drink (then headed out to move it & let my friend get our food) & he came over again insisting I moved it RIGHT now. Then he proceeded to follow me out to my vehicle apparently to point out the spot was marked, however he failed because there is no marking. My advice to you Able is to either put up a sign or mark it on the asphalt if it's so important to you to keep that area free of parking or if someone does park there be polite & ask them to move their vehicle as soon as possible. Long story short I will never spend my money at a place where I'm treated so poorly. In hindsight I should've asked for my money back the first time...

OBNOXIOUS! I had read bad reviews of the service, but thought it might just be the occasional slip. Then I experienced it. Went in with my wife and son. Son was very hungry and exhausted after a full weekend at a Lacrosse tourney. Thought we'd grab a grinder on the way home. My wife was undecided on what to order, so I went to the counter and ordered sandwiches for me and my son. The brash woman behind the counter barked out the order to the kitchen workers, who started the preparation. I then said I'd be back in a minute with the third sandwich. The woman then commanded the workers to quit working on the sandwiches! I had to pay for the two, and then start a new order for the third sandwich. Are you kidding me? Like I'm going to somehow order the sandwiches and then bolt? Anyway... this could be considered two visits in one: My...
