The Upper Crust 95 East Kennedy Boulevard, Lakewood, NJ 08701

"The only dairy restaurant in Lakewood that I keep coming back to. Tried so many things on the menu and everything is 10/10! The best food and always looks appetizing. Takeout orders are the same fresh. The restaurant is always calm and quiet no matter how many people are there. I will keep coming back. Thank you."

"We went for takeout, the food was terrific, and big portions. We had the pizza sampler, half spicy - half shakshuka, both delicious, the sauce was insane. The poke bowl also amazing, as my wife exclaimed “the best poke bowl I have ever had”, everything was so fresh, even the rice tasted special. Will most definitely be returning!"

"Food was ready very quickly and was delicious!! Glad to see some new items on the menu. Minus 1 star because there were some overripe brown chunks in the guacamole."

"If you're going for kosher dairy food in Lakewood, this place is probably one of two good places in the area. Difference here is that these guys know dough and pizza, which means their pizzas (and dessert calzones) will be great. We went on a busy weekend and they had both indoor and outdoor seating. Pizzas were great, and some very funky. There's one with onion rings and bbq sauce, another with mini mozzarella sticks (which is basically just cheese on cheese), and more with roasted cauliflower or broccoli under some more cheese. My advice here is really to try and stick with the stuff with tomato sauce. Would be nice if they incorporated arugula or truffle like some of the more modern NYC Italian restaurants do. Appetizers is where it's at. We didn't try fries, but we did try the tuna tostadas (fish seemed pretty fresh and it was kind of like a crunchy rice), and the nachos (really good and cheesy). This place probably ain't a great idea if you're lactose intolerant. For dessert you definitely want to try the nutella/oreo calzone. Save room. Some minor issues I had was that the service was pretty lacking. Waiters didn't care to properly serve customers and seemed to have an impatient attitude. People that came to bring extra utensils didn't take back our dirty dishes, and for the second half of the meal our table was full of dirty plates. Also the bathroom was used as storage for other stuff, was not clean, and the camera to flush the toilet didn't work. They should put some more money into the staff, clean bathrooms a bit better, and maybe install camera systems for better management. Just my two cents."
