The service is always friendly and the food is always delicious. The ribs, the tacos, the loaded pork-tato, the burnt ends, the three meat sandwich....everything we've ever had has been lip-smackin' good! The only downside is the parking (no dedicated lot; only street parking). It can be quite hard to find parking during peak times.

They smoke everything over night so when they run out, they run out. We weren't too mad as we were excited about the brisket regardless! The special of the brisket poutine was top tier!!!! It was fries, brisket, gravy, and cheese curds. The ultimate comfort app! They had a lot of great choices on the menu for entrees and sides. Drinks were a bit slow coming out, not sure if there is always only one bartender all the time. The brisket was also a bit dry but everything else made up for it and it was still very good. Overall, Woodstock was an awesome, hearty meal with a cozy vibe! Will be coming back to try more on the menu!

We ordered at the counter and they give you cute signs to take the table. Ours was Frog. The service was quick and the Tempeh Ruben was delicious. There are not many places you can order a Tulsi tea, so I very much appreciated that option. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had to park in a municipal lot and walk, but it was not far. In the past O have parked on the street also. The Root Cafe is a very comfortable and welcoming space.

They had definitely outgrown their old space, so it's exciting to see them just down the street in a new home thats size finally matches the amount of people who are dying for a coffee and crepe. The new spot has two giant rooms with plenty of seating, including the cutest little VHS corner. There's so much more room now to really enjoy the quaint grandma's living room vibe that Brewellas has always been iconic for. Their coffee and crepes are always delicious. Currently they don't have a huge seasonal menu like they normally would, but the classics + pistachio are more than enough for me right now! I cannot wait to go back!

Thai Thai is well known in the city for its Bangkok street food. They are also now known for…read morecarrying Labubu keychains ($10 each). What I most love about this restaurant is their collaborative Lakewood spirit. They are part of Bunts to Birdtown (IG buntstobirdtown) which is a local business collaborative of businesses on Madison Ave in Lakewood. The businesses frequently host fun events - shopping crawls and scavenger hunt (such as today). I love that Thai Thai is part of this little business community and stays involved in Lakewood's social scene. I dropped in at Thai Thai for Bunts to Birdtown scavenger hunt. It was my first and much anticipated visit. The restaurant is currently not fully open and has a limited menu. Limited menu includes baos and bubble teas. It opens for full service again on Friday, August 1, 2025 (full menu and table service). The restaurant is small, has few tasteful Thai details (such as Bangkok skyline art) and neon Thai Thai sign. It's on the trendier side. My order: - Baos with roasted pork. -$6 for 2 - Good value and size! Meat was tasty and well prepared, but Bao was light on the meat. Bao had soggy bottom. - Thai bubble tea - $6 - Traditionally with milk, but they were out of milk. It was totally fine with me. Bubble tea tasted like light peach iced tea to me. It was good, but bobas were soggy. - Taro bubble tea - $6 - Pretty Instagrammable lavender color. Subtly sweet. Soggy bobas. Service was really friendly and welcoming. The owner told me that they just returned from Thailand. So it's amazing to have an authentic spot in the city! I'll stop by when full service will open and try other options on the menu to get the full experience!

We ordered the Tom Yum soup, Red Curry with chicken and Pad Kee Mao with tofu. The Tom Yum soup was great. Very flavorful and still hot after picking it up and taking it home. The red curry was super watery and flavorless. The chicken in it was very bland and the curry really had no flavor. The pad kee mao was a little better, but still not as flavorful as other Thai spots. There wasn't any spice to anything, but I wasn't asked about spice levels when ordering so that could also be on me for not saying I wanted it spicy. The veggies in both the curry and noodles were cooked really well though. There are definitely better and more consistent Thai spots in the area, so not sure that I will be back unfortunately.
