Benji from Smash House with a strong message after some stories circulated around social media.

Benji, what's going on? I think today's days you're more popular than Trump. You know that? Whatever I go, whatever >> Listen, I hope it's for good reason. Some of them came back. So, first of all, we need to apologize to you guys. I know you guys still were coming to try to stop people out, to show Hangout's absolutely not. Let's Let me get this out of the way. All right? I We did Smash House just for the families. You see our wall of fame, the kids prizes, the juice box, the art. It's all for the families. The teenagers that come to Hangout here, you want to eat great. You don't want to eat get out. We don't want you here. We spoke to to the rabbi of the college of our things. His name is Rabbi Robert, if I mentioned it correctly. All right? We're going to hire security. We taking care of that right away. Number two. Number two. All right? No more open till 2:00 a.m. on Thursdays. We're going to open till 12:00. All right? To keep these kids out. Number three, as of now, once it's Shabbos, I'm staying closed until we forgot the whole security situation. Once the security situation, I'm going to open again on Motzei Shabbos. Okay? Cuz I'm trying to show we're not here to ruffle feathers. We're here to show the concept club of great gishmak a time. That's all it is. >> Now, Benji, what was the story with the Someone told me they ordered from a different store and they forgot this. I don't know if it's true or not. I mean, I'll give you the word. >> What? >> I got conflicting reports. One said that the guys ate. Another report said no one ate it. You know, they they hopped it. So, first of all, because of that, we took precaution right away. We put kosher on our Uber Eats header. So, it says right away Smash House kosher. So, now it's going to be almost impossible to make the mistake. And number two is we offered the family that that got the non-kosher food to get on us a free meal for the whole family. And we never got a response back. And by the way, free meal is still available for you guys. >> At the end of the day, is it your responsibility that you have a very similar name, or is it responsibility for every person to check? >> I mean, you should do your research. Number three, first of all, you don't see the You have to see the kosher key. We have simanim to show. We have to take three times. You have to staple three times. There's a bunch of simanim that the rabbi makes us do before we send out a new order. >> One more question. People are a little bit bothered about this cheeseburger bacon. Is there a possibility to change the name a little bit? >> Yes, so we again we're going to apologize for that. We're not again we're going to say this again. We're not here to take people's eyes out and to show oh this and that thing. We're not trying to act like the All right? What we're trying to do is bring you good gishmak of food. Now, our cheese is vegan potato base. So we first of all we took anything that has the name cheese out of any of our headers. We even changed the sandwich name for the Philly cheese sandwich to the Philly sando. >> Why you can't say more cheese? >> We don't want to say we're not >> So somebody if somebody wants to taste that cheese what what what what what what what what what what >> He'll have the option in in it to put it in or not. It'll be his own option. You understand? But it's not in the header. Okay? I took off the the bacon we call it beef bacon. Again guys >> Fakin with the F. >> Yes, exactly. Everybody say we're here for the gansa klal. We're here to show Lakewood a very good gishmak a time. That's all it is. That's all it is. >> And once again >> My name is Benji. I know I'm a little bit from from but I'm a really from guy. All right? And I really really really really apologize for what happened. And let me show you something else that we do. See we have a trilling stand in front of me? We have a trilling stand. >> By the way, the day I posted it >> your video I have people call me till today for the trilling stand. I don't need that. I have three 16-year-olds working here. Remember from that post? And they have a rule. If they don't put on trilling first thing in the morning and I don't get a selfie, don't come to work. Cuz over here in Smash House it's all about Hashem comes first. >> Wow. Unbelievable. >> You want to see my phone? I can show you my phone. You can see the pictures. Yeah, I'm hiding the names. I know the kid probably doesn't want me to see but you see good morning. I'm going to Shacharis today. That's awesome. Keep crushing. You see he sends me a a selfie. >> Wow. >> Trilling trilling without this you do not come work at Smash House in the morning. We're teaching the youth here in order to be a serious kid. Let's let's let's leave the let's leave the excuses out the door. You need a 2-minute break? Right? Boss please 2-minute break. Put on the trilling First thing in the morning, the whole day is going to change. Absolutely. >> Prior. >> Five minute one second. Avi, I thought you were usually the first one in the new restaurant. How come it took you two weeks to come here? >> I'll tell you why. Typically, a lot of people from out of town when they open up stores in Lakewood, I I try to give the Lakewood guys a chance. But and I I gave them I said also let's give them a chance to get going, but I'll tell you one thing. I'm here in Smash House. First of all, the food's delicious. And I just want to say something. There's a lot of people in town that are hating on them. I listen, from a rough perspective, leave it to Rav Ovadia. I I believe I met the owner a few times. I actually spoke to him. He can confirm of two years ago I believe was the opening of Smash House here, okay? I actually reached out to him cuz I believe in the concept. But you know what's special about Smash House? The pricing. He came to Yeshiva town and he is the lowest priced on almost everything he has. >> Really? >> You go to other stores, it's $33, $34. A family wants to sit down for dinner, $100, whatever it is. You know something? People have to give the man credit. The man said, "You know what? Let me open up a business model, high volume." I Listen, he's not selling you a 50 oz burger. But Lema'aseh, he understood that we are a community with people that have children and families and he's giving amazing prices. >> Absolutely. >> And the bad characters that are trying to ruin his parnassah, shame on you. And I I listen, if a Rav comes out and says not to go, that's a different story. I'm ready Rabbonim are first. You have to listen. But guys, give a person a chance. Make a kiddush Hashem, work with him. He's going to work with you. And remember, the guy is charging the best pricing for what he has. >> But it's not only burgers. Look at this. What What's this? >> Should I tell you a hidden menu item? I'm afraid I don't want to let anyone know. They make a lemon pepper wings. Everyone who knows that it's like a hidden menu item. It's finished already. It is so good. >> Okay. >> I'll see you Friday. >> What's the well priced? >> Every I'm telling you, a salad is $20. When you go somewhere else, the salad is $32. Again, you know, at a certain point, a family of six wants to go out to eat, it's not affordable. Over here, it is affordable. >> Score a hobby. >> Thank you. What is this? I've never seen such a thing. What is it? >> I don't know. >> Benji, what's this? Benji. >> Benji, what is this? >> Tenders, wow. Beautiful. >> Maybe try it. Maybe this is going to be the next favorite menu, no? >> No, I'll stick with the wings. Lemon pepper wings, I'm telling you. Phenomenal product. >> Look, keep this a sizzle, though. They slice through. For the toppings. >> That's not a a from the fry. What's this? >> Very crunchy. >> Crispy crunch chicken? >> Yes. >> I never knew you had all these items. What's this? >> Oh, welcome back. Man of the hour, no? This is wings. Buffalo honey wings, fried wings. It's schmacht, my friend. >> Somebody should kick some Benji's in the office. Look how many papers, and look how many frying, look. >> This is why we do this, look. What's your name? Menachem. You see, Menachem came and took time out of his day to draw this beautiful picture. You know what we're going to do? Now, we're going to give Menachem the tape, and he can hang it on our wall of fame. Menachem, this is for you, my guy. This is This is what Smash House is all about. Not all the hangout and all the chazarai that goes on outside. This is what we did it for. Seriously, this is what we did it for. Show it, show it. >> What do you do once this whole wall is full, though? >> So, we When it's really, really, really full, we try to find other space over there, and then we just start like taking out the really scribbly ones, putting on the nicer ones, and stuff like that. We have to We have to make that hard to say. >> Having that dollars, you have papers and kids. >> Correct. Correct. This is what we're all about. This is what we're all about.
