Potelah - Westlake

Nice nice people who work here and run the place. Tried Potelah in Westlake Interesting concept. Like Chipotle but with Potatoes or Sweet Potatoes. Also a potato pizza. They also have fresh juices. I think it's an interesting concept. I'm not sure how it will perform as a standalone. 25 dollars for a potato and juice with tip. Sigh. But I support all small businesses. Here are some pictures. I wish them a ton of success.

We absolutely love Potelah! Massive build your own baked potatoes with tons of unlimited toppings. Everything was really fresh to us. Friendly staff. Super yummy fresh squeezed juices and smoothies. I also recommend the Potelah potato pizza. You can do takeout or dine in, but it's definitely very casual and you order up at the counter!

We walked in and the music was blaring so loud it was extremely distracting. We were behind someone getting their order prepared. Only one man was working and he was prepping the order for the gentleman ahead of us, just the 1 guy not even prepping for the guys two girls. No one greeted us as we walked in not even a "welcome , welcome-in" or "hello". The restaurant was completely empty beside us and them. No one was eating in the restaurant and all the tables were empty. The place reminded me of a subway restaurant .. where there's glass and trays of toppings but this place didn't have many fresh sides/toppers and the few they had did not look very fresh. We left.

If you're vegetarian, definitely stay away. The guy behind the counter used his hand to put their grease-covered bacon on the woman in front of me's potato and then immediately used the same grease-covered glove in all of the cheese and veggies. Did not have this issue at the parma heights location, which was delicious! Sadly had to leave and go get something else.

Absolutely one of the coolest fast dining concepts in the area. You get a made to order, create your own, baked potato. You can load it up with cheese and butter and sauce and veggies and protein. Service is friendly when ordering and they walk you through all their options. Ambiance is cute. Little artwork of their mascot on the wall. Run to this spot!
