Lakewood, NJ Restaurants Master Thread

I'm very impressed with Glatt bite's makeover. I haven't been in there for a while so I don't remember it clearly from before the makeover.

Now it's very clean and nice. The ordering tablets at the tables is very smart.

My only criticism is the shelving for the unpaid and paid orders. It looks nice but it doesn't seem very efficient for them to have to go around and put orders on the shelves. And it's not that easy to find your order.

But at the end of the day it works for their store.

Can you think of a more efficient way to display 100 orders? Its a matter of getting used to, everything is in alphabetical with paid, unpaid, and uber orders separate. There's also almost always workers there helping to find your order.

Horrible location. Parking there is crazy.

Or, great location business wise, huge parking lot and parking is still crazy.

I assumed this was a joke, a twist on Yogi Berra’s “Nobody goes there anymore, it’s too crowded”.

It becomes a trade off between traffic drawn to the store which is a benefit and the inability of your own customers to find parking. That affects each business differently.

Very convenient for me. My mouth can't wait, but my scale can.

Theres always plenty of parking there, just maybe not directly in front of the store you desire.

Went to Kava yesterday. Great place with surprisingly reasonable prices. Got a piece of Salmon and two sides for $22

The pizza at Sugo is really good. Great crust

Agreed. The sauce though has too much acidy, IMO

I'm meeting someone in Lakewood (it will likely be his first time in a frum community), and he wants to experience kosher food. Best restaurant for lunch? Supper?

To clarify, I live in Lakewood and know most of the restaurants, I'm just trying to figure out which one to take him to if we can only go to one. It will either be lunch or supper, not both.

Nostalgia, perhaps.

Thank you.
He has eaten traditional kosher food, I think he just wants to see that kosher steak is just as good (I hope ) Although for lunch would probably do milchigs...

What level? High end?

Some mid-level suggestions: Ottimo or South Side Sandwich Shop.

For steak maybe Entrée (for a more limited menu of solid food), or Estrela or CharQ (for a more expanded menu).
