Catalina's Mexican Restaurant | Our Story
A neighborhood table on César E. Chávez
Catalina's Mexican Restaurant sits on East César E. Chávez Avenue in Lansing's Old Town — a walkable, arts-filled stretch of the city where people gather, explore, and eat well. This is the kind of place that fits naturally into a good day in the neighborhood.
Old Town as a gathering place
East César E. Chávez Avenue draws local businesses, artists, and longtime Lansing residents side by side — and Catalina's has made a home in the middle of it. It's a natural stop whether you're running errands, catching a show nearby, or just looking for a good meal.
Morning through evening, every day
Old Town moves at its own pace, and Catalina's keeps up — open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner all week long. Whatever time you arrive, there's a meal waiting for you.
When the weather turns warm
Outdoor seating opens up Catalina's to the full energy of the street — pedestrians passing, the neighborhood humming, a cold drink in hand. There are few better ways to spend a sunny Lansing afternoon.
Close to where things happen
Catalina's sits within easy reach of the Lansing Center, Jackson Field, and the riverfront — making it a natural before-or-after stop for games, events, and evenings out. Old Town is worth the detour on its own, but a great meal waiting doesn't hurt.
