El Azteco

Located in East Lansing, El Azteco is a local Mexican restaurant popular with students and residents near Michigan State University. Owned and run locally, not by a chain headquartered somewhere else entirely. East Lansing wouldn't feel quite like East Lansing without independently owned spots like this one. Expect a casual, low-key atmosphere rather than a big chain experience. Part of the fun of a college town like East Lansing is finding places like this on your own. A first visit tends to turn into a habit around here, one meal at a time.
