El Catrin Taco Shop Opening in Lansing

Looking back on the year that has been 2023, Lansing has seen a lot of change.

Lansing Businesses That Have Closed or Opened in 2023

We've seen places like The Grid Arcade & Bar in Old Town, YaYa's Flame Broiled Chicken in Lansing, and more close their doors for the last time.

And while Lansing has experienced those loses and more like them, we've also seen the blossoming of new businesses opening, like the only Peruvian restaurant in Mid-Michigan soon to open in Okemos, or like this brand new cookie place that's moving into the Red Cedar Development.

Now, we have another new restaurant to look forward to.

There is no other signage. Nothing to indicate when it might open. Just the promise of "tacos & more" sometime in the future.

I'm happy to see another business that will be opening in Lansing. I hope this place sticks around.
