Stick to appetizers, had a bunch, they were all excellent, the mains were disappointing. Peanut butter bar was a great desert.

Tomahawk was really hopping! Is it the busiest place in town these days? We got a couple of appetizers and no main (we had already eaten), food was really good. A little pricey though.

Interesting article about liquor licenses in Lakewood.

https://www.app.com/story/news/local/2022/07/19/restaurant-bar-liquor-license-nj-lakewood/65373306007/
Wow

What an onerous cost to gate-keep new restaurants out. If anything, they should charge the tax as a rolling percentage without the prepayment...

Kalamata would have the only good pizza in Lakewood if they would put yeast in their dough. Seriously, the pizza is delicious but sooo flat.

Is it really standard in Lakewood for the owners to pocket the mandatory 18% tip?
Ouch!

I ate somewhere last week and they clearly wrote that the 18% gratuity goes to the restaurant, while this case wouldn't be Genevas Daas it's disgusting! They raise their prices and charge 18% gratuity, that's $3.60 more for a $20 dish. Besides for the terrible experience I had, I left with a nasty taste in my mouth (both literally and figuratively)
