Restaurants in Lakewood

“This was truly a great find, definitely a diamond in the rough. I didn’t expect such a welcoming restaurant. It looked busy when we walked in, but it went fast. From the time we walked in, we were greeted and asked if this was our first time in the restaurant. They told us how things worked and focused on the customer. They were very kind, not normally seen in restaurants these days. Very good hospitality. Ambiance was nice.

The menu isn’t so complicated and has fewer items on the menu to make it not confusing. The one item we wanted,they ran out, but gave us a sampler for next time. I would highly recommend this restaurant to others.”

“Customer service is nothing short but amazing! Locally owned business with the sushi grade and flavor very good! I’m definitely coming back and can see why it has the rating they do!”

“A wonderful place to eat!!!”

“Everything was exceptional! Wonderful restaurant”

“I had a fabulous experience at the Lakewood Carls Jr. Mr. Rhett at the drive thru window was a phenomenal customer service extraordinaire! Dude was fast, efficient, and super kind. I couldn’t ask for better service. On top of that the burgers were bussin’ and the fries were super hot and fresh. They even made sure I got my sauce which is kind of a big deal to me. Thank you to Rhett and the Lakewood Carls Jr for servin it! <3”

“This was my first time visiting this place as well as the cafe/bakery next door. It's a small grocery store full of authentic German food products. Their bread was so good!!! I definitely plan on coming back for more pretzels.

Everyone was so friendly and polite. It was well-stocked and clean too.”

“The food here was really good and filling. The place is clean and has a peaceful environment and the service here is very nice. The workers are respectful and polite.”

“Delicious food with great service.”

“Great food!”

“The employees here are always so nice!
Shoutout to the employee Wyatt - he always greets with a smiling face and makes sure we leave happy with our order. Every time we get a cookie the day he works they are the most well done!”

“This place has become my new go-to spot for a cup of coffee. I brought my Shih Tzu, Rocco, and as soon as we stepped inside, the friendly staff greeted us with a warm smile. They offered us a bone or a Pup-uccino, which was a thoughtful gesture. The ambiance was incredibly welcoming and relaxing, creating a cozy atmosphere. The coffee was exceptional, with a perfect balance of flavor and not too much sweetness. The staff was incredibly attentive and provided top-notch customer service. The comfortable furniture added to the overall experience, making it even better than Starbucks. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great coffee experience.”

“I went in on Sunday May 31st. everything that evening, was a little off. I wasn't pleased. So I let the managers know that there team had fallen short. Of the Bears credos and Standards. This week the whole staff was working as a team producing quality food and a welcoming, atmosphere. for people to enjoy. Awesome JOB Lakewood Black Bear Team.”

“I hadn't been here in a few years but the second I walked in I felt like I was home.

Absolutely incredible food and lovely people. Excellent and very friendly service. Great portions and prices. I highly recommend the sour shredded potatoes and the Szechuan beef noodle soup!! It's best if you get a few different dishes and eat family style.”

“Such a great place to take the family! Variety of burgers all are super tasty especially the Marsala chicken sandwich and the shakes are great!! Love having a game system at the table to keep the kids entertained while we waited just a short time for the food! Great service, comfortable atmosphere and incredible food!”

“I thought that I'd had authentic Mexican food before but I was wrong, I ordered my go to Mexican restaurant food order(enchiladas) and I realize the difference now when its made with love! Great place! I have no clue about the price of food there tho, a friend treated us.”

“I stopped by on a whim and boy am I glad I did. Ordered the 12 piece 🍤 with 🍟. and BOY was the owner very generous in his portions. They were PERFECTLY SEASONED AND CRISPY. 😋 Delicious . Highly recommend.”

“Once you enter through the doors the beauty of this place will impress you, but what really stands out is the amazing service and gorgeous food! This place has become our new favorite. We travel here from Lake Tapps, WA because it is just that good. The service we have received here time and time again is special-we have been treated like family! Amazing selection, super clean and wonderful folks”

“Great Food, flavorful and better than boiling crab!! Great service!”

“the food was authentic Mexican. so yummy. we had the tacos with beef and cheese and quesadillas with beef and cheese. will definitely be back”

“It is like a fine food restaurant with affordable prices! I’ve been here 3 times and enjoyed everything I ordered!

“Absolutely love this place!!! The chef fulfilled a personal request for an item not listed on the menu with no hesitation and it came out perfectly💓 the staff is wonderfully kind and patient, and everything was so clean!!!”

“Open 24 hours / 7 Days a week. Great spot for solid Mexican takeout. Decent prices, friendly and professional service. Great food made with quality ingredients. Very fresh. We go out of the way to patronize this location. Awesome variety of pretty much anything you could ever want. Drive up is 24 hours. Dining room closes at midnight I believe. Food is always made fresh to order.”

“They are just so friendly here they you know customize your order they're gonna make it how you like it the obviously saw I had children that gave me tons of extra napkins which I really appreciate it they're very clean they wash their hands they wear gloves they're wearing mask.”

“this one barista {don't remember her name} always knows my coffee preference, she's gets it right since the first day I went the4re. Been going back ever since, been going there for over 5 yrs. Never disappointed”

“Received an order from this place. While the food was great, they didn't give me ketchup packets. I can understand not having some certain condiments like a popular new sauce and buffalo, but what kind of McDonald's runs out of ketchup packets of all things? Now I can't even use the Ranch dressing (that I PAID extra for, mind you) because I mix the ranch and ketchup together.”

“Quality tea. Wonderful people.”

“Breakfast is my favorite -- and Moon Rise Cafe served an exceptional eggs Benedict! Do yourself a favor and take your favorite person here if you want to look like a genius. 🩷”

“Thong Thai Restaurant is a real gem! The atmosphere is comfortable, the staff is friendly and fast. The location is easy to find. Most importantly, the food is absolutely delicious! A couple members of our family have celiac disease, so we're cautious and picky about dining out. This is a trusted place that never disappoints. We came here to celebrate two birthdays. This business is family owned and run. Once you experience the food, it will become one of your favorite places, too!”

“friendly atmosphere...crisp meat burrito”

“2 men after a very rainy 5 mile beach hike found this a great experience!
It was a perfect temperature to warm us up. Food was amazing, their daily chicken teriyaki special, gyoza and Won Ton Soup was perfect. The woman server was extraordinary. We will be back.”

“OMG!!! THE BEST BOBA EVERRRR
My friend and I got boba from the place next to HMART. Couldn’t even drink it cause it tasted so blehhh…So we went here and got 4 different flavors. My friend got Taro, I got strawberry matcha, strawberry tea and the roasted matcha drink. I can’t describe how delicious they are over these boring words. I will definitely keep coming back!!!”

“Ang sarap nung yema cake roll $18 Lang yata bili ko. Per worth it”

“I visited this bakery and bought four pastries today. Some popular items were already sold out because I went around 1:00 p.m., so if you want the best selection, I recommend going in the morning.

The pastries were fresh and delicious. However, I was disappointed with the service. I chose not to buy a plastic bag, but I expected the cashier to place my individually wrapped pastries into one paper bag, as they have done during my previous visits. Instead, I had to carry each one separately to my car.

I don't know if it was because I didn't leave a tip, but it made me feel that way. It left me with a disappointing impression of the customer service.”

“This was just a pit stop for us on a road trip and was well worth the couple minutes off the freeway. Way faster than any fast food option, all the food was so tasty, we ended up getting a dozen tamales to take home for later!”

“First Time going to Puerto Rican 🇵🇷International cuisine , food was delicious and taste amazing ,staff was helpful and friendly, will definitely be coming back again.”

“Great food! We tried the Godzilla Roll (it was so huge), Spicy Chicken Karaage, and Eel Nigiri and everything was super fresh and delicious. Portions were huge and we were able to take some home for leftovers.”

“This was my first time eating here and I am so happy I did. The food was great! The people were awesome and thank you so much for the song recommendation it touched my spirit I loved it. 😍”

“love the food, love the prices, love the people most, and love the special decor that makes the atmosphere magical!”

“Great pizza some of the best I've had since living here for over 30 years. But the service was horrible . Brianna i think that was her her name was. I get being busy but she forgot our salads, remined her and she basically shrugged her shoulders as if i was putting her out. One of the worst servers I've had in a long time, she could care less about our table or her job. I'll be back because the pizza was that good . I'll just be sure to not sit in her section.”

“I was recommended by a friend to try this place, because of the dished, which I did walk in, order then wow the dish that I chose was well balance it made me feel recalling memories.”

“We order from Yum Yum Teriyaki often and are always satisfied with their food and service. We especially like the house Yakisoba and beef broccoli, but all their food is delicious! The owners are very friendly and work hard to please. We highly recommend this restaurant!”

“Coworker reccomended this place. Good food, toddler sized bowl of chips 😒 no refill offered while we waited for our food. That's ok, it's free. Service was fine, nothing special. Probably won't be back, only because there are other spots that are more to our liking.”

“This place is a hidden gem. I loved everything even my kids loved it. We had the quesabirrias, gordita (asada), taco plate (asada), quesadilla (asada) and some tacos (buche).From food to service this place deserves a 5 star review. I extremely recommend it!!”

“The food here is fine but they are unbelievably slow. My grandson waited 25 minutes for a piece of pie. We have been several times and it is always the same. Wait,wait!,”

“I've loved gravity coffee for years! They have the best drinks. Their coffee always tastes fresh, even the iced coffee does! My favorite drink is the interstellar. The ladies here are always nice and make the drinks great. Stella is my fave to see at the drive thru! 🔥”

“My first time here. my sister got a blended Carmel macchiato and I got my iced pineapple matcha green tea latte and they were delicious! Great drinks and friendly gal”

“The food was delicious and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating. We came in for an early dinner but by the time we left the place was packed! Ppl clearly love this hidden gem!”

“Super friendly staff. The carnita tacos were fabulous and the asada burrito was absolutely delicious. The green sauce is superb, the red sauce super spicy (still yummy). Highly, recommend stopping by. You won't regret it. Better food then Memo's and Motezuma's.”

“First time having an açaí bowl and it was honestly so good! Highly recommend! 🍓🥥”

“So, this is the best pho in town! The broth is so rich and delicious. The chicken is tender and all white meat. I also love the fresh tofu rolls with their peanut sauce! It’s not fancy inside, but it’s comfortable and the service is quick and they are friendly. If you want feel good food this place is a must!”

“We've been a few times and have always enjoyed our drinks! The staff are also very kind and communicative. We also ordered via a delivery service one time, and the staff called us to confirm our order's details which we really appreciated!”

“It’s a nice place and I’m looking forward to coming back and trying more things on the menu.”

“Amazing people and amazing food!”

“The food and service is Gold star perfect! Food is always delicious, and our service has always been first class. Have driven 85 miles one way for last 2 years to have our anniversary dinner there. And it's always excellent!”

“I went in on Sunday May 31st. everything that evening, was a little off. I wasn't pleased. So I let the managers know that there team had fallen short. Of the Bears credos and Standards. This week the whole staff was working as a team producing quality food and a welcoming, atmosphere. for people to enjoy. Awesome JOB Lakewood Black Bear Team.”

“The food is good, BUT in that past year they have become SOoooo EXPENSIVE and its NOT worth the money any longer. The portions used to be larger and now they barely fill their boxes. Not going back because of those reasons. They need to drop the prices again and add more food to boxes again.”

“We order from Yum Yum Teriyaki often and are always satisfied with their food and service. We especially like the house Yakisoba and beef broccoli, but all their food is delicious! The owners are very friendly and work hard to please. We highly recommend this restaurant!”

This business is family owned and run. Once you experience the food, it will become one of your favorite places, too!”

“The food is never disappointing. However, at least twice a week we get the same thing, vegetable fried rice and honey walnut shrimp with extra cabbage. You can never go wrong with these two meals. They use fresh chopped vegetables NOT frozen. They give you a lot of it. It’s enough for 3-4 people. The shrimp is never over cooked with a tasty coating. The candied walnuts are plentiful. The sauce is so good, we started requesting extra shredded cabbage. These two dishes are never disappointing.”

“Just wanted to say am impressed with the awesome customer service or barista Tess she always gives speedy customer service and always prepares orders fast and consistent will visit pink sugar espresso for my morning coffee every time definitely five stars”

She’s got it all Thank you, sis leilani And her manager mahogany”

“Service was 10/10
I would specifically like to highlight “Bonnetman” working the first window.
He was very professional and helpful with an issue I had with a digital order.”

“The beer selection is second to none in the area. The breakfast sandwiches are so good I cannot stop thinking about them. I had the egg salad sandwich with arugula and a delicious wasabi sauce that paired so well with a delicious Pilsner from Melvin brewing. I also had the walk of shame sandwich and the cheese and chives were the perfect combination and exactly what you are looking for in a breakfast sandwich. The buns they use here are of noticeable quality hold up well to the hearty sandwiches. The staff here is also very friendly and makes you feel like a regular even if you are 300 miles from home.”

“Excelente comida, muy buen servicio y el sabor auténtico mexicano!”

“It was such a pleasant surprise to find authentic Korean food in a small Korean community in rural America.

Overall, the food was quite good. The Mandu were not really to my personal taste—not that they were bad, but I didn’t feel they quite matched the price.

On the other hand, the seolleongtang was absolutely delicious, and I truly enjoyed every spoonful. The kalguksu was also very good. What impressed me the most were the kimchi and kkakdugi. They had that authentic Korean flavor I hadn’t tasted in a long time, and they really made the meal feel special.

Overall, it was a satisfying and comforting Korean meal, especially in such an unexpected location. I’m glad we stopped by.”

“This place is seriously the best. And I really mean that. Literally everything I've tried from them has been absolutely phenomenal, the presentation is beautiful, you can tell they take care when placing the toppings on each pizza, the calzones are top tier and they have so many options including vegetarian and halal, and the greek salad is HUGE. My favorite is the gyros though. Great rewards in the app, BUT make sure to tip cash in store because i believe tips in the app go to doordash and not Can Am's friendly and hardworking employees, and you know they definitely deserve the tip!!! Thank you Can Am for so many amazing meals and more meals to come, you're my favorite takeout place!”

“Nice atmosphere, decent menu reasonably priced. They make an awesome 🍔. They have a few dart boards, a hockey game. There are 10 7ft Diamond pool tables if you like playing pool. There are around 5 T.Vs and a big screen. I think they have free poker on the weekends and pool tournaments during the week.”

“The ladies there are beautiful and the chai tastes just like the ones they sell at the Japanese Starbucks 😋
No syrups here all concentrates and powders.”
