NEW: Benji from Smash House in Lakewood with a strong message after some negative stories about his new restaurant circulated around social media. "We're not here to ruffle feathers, we're here to show the Klal a geshmake time." He said Smash House is intended as a family-oriented restaurant, not a teen hangout. He noted that hours will not run late Thursday night until 2am but close 12am, and security has been hired to prevent loitering. For now it will be closed motzei shabbos until security is figured out. Addressing recent concerns, about a mix-up involving a non-kosher order from Uber eats from a similar sounding non-Kosher restaurant, corrections were made and the kosher status on Uber Eats has been updated. He added that menu listings were also adjusted, including removing "cheese" labels even for vegan items, and emphasized that the goal is to serve the Lakewood community respectfully. He apologized for any confusion and said the store aims to provide a positive experience for the community.
