“Really delicious gluten free food. Almost their entire menu can be made gluten free! They are also very knowledgeable about gluten allergies/celiac and are patient with you while they walk you through the steps. Bonus they are open late. Highly recommended if you are gluten free and are out late!”

“Lovely neighborhood cafe with everything from pizza and coffee to Salvadorian dishes. I discovered Uncle Milton's when they did delicious catering for a local event I attended and then found their cafe location. Right near the Resiliency Park, too! Hidden gem and LGBTQ+ friendly, highly recommend.”

“Visited here first time based on all the great reviews and we were not disappointed. Tried the vodka pizza, buffalo chicken and barbeque chicken slices, garlic knots- all were great! Would definitely come back”
Ice Cream Shop • $
“My daughter is very picky with ice cream and saw a Facebook ad requesting we go. We went and ordered 4 different things in the hopes she’d eat something. She finished her entire ice cream and literally gave it a thumbs up. Usually she eats 1-2 bites and says she’s done. My 2 year old swapped between his and mine because he couldn’t decide what was better. My husband finished his first and doesn’t usually eat ice cream. We got strawberry sorbet, Greek yogurt, Belgium chocolate, chocolate hazelnut Oreo-one was made into a sandwich nothing but deliciousness!”

“Best Mozzarella in town and certainly much more juicier then Fiore's Mozzarella ... My personal take is that Fiore's is over rated. However all in all Vitos Deli should truly be called the authentic official ' House of Quality ' .. Enough Said !!!!!!!”
Cocktail Bar • $$
“I recently visited this cocktail bar in Hoboken (found it on Google and reviews were good) on a Wednesday night. We were there just for drinks, so we only ordered appetizers and didn’t explore the main course.The cocktail selection was nice, but not huge. We tried the Wild Child and Mai Thai, and I particularly enjoyed the Wild Child.For appetizers, we had the burrata and calamari. The burrata was nicely presented, while the calamari was just average. Prices were reasonable, with drinks ranging from $13 to $19 and appetizers from $15 to $20. They offer happy hours, though we missed it this time.The bar has both indoor seating and a patio. We opted for the patio since it was a pleasant evening, but there were available tables both inside and outside.The service was good, with nothing noteworthy to critique. I would definitely come back for happy hours on Sunday.Parking: Hard to find parking, it’s located on Washington street in Hoboken hence quite busy”

“(yes another tgtg joy I found) Didn't know the place until I used the tgtg app, amazing bag like 10 gluten free cookies cupcakes, scones, crumble cakes etc, (all carefully individuallu packed in a plastic box) especially great being on a road trip to Pennsylvania!Very generous bag and kind people there reminds me an amazing famous French couple bakery in Pittsburgh. (Not a con but probably would call next time if bought tgtg bag for not packing in plastic boxes but not owners problem, just personal preference) anyway great store hope y'all thrive in Hoboken xoxo :)”

“I live in Florida, but I wanted to send Halloween-themed baked goods for my sons and daughter-in-law in Jersey City. Baking Mama delivered delicious cookies, cupcakes, and brownies on time right to their door. My kids said they were delicious and they looked great in the photos they sent. Two thumbs up!”
Salad • $
“I enjoyed the iced oat milk chai tea, as it tasted herb-ally and lightly sweet while my fiancé did not enjoy his plain coffee with almond milk. The vibes were nice though. I would want to come back to try their gluten free donuts, as the reviews are great but they were sold out when we got there, sadly.”
Health Food • $
“Toastique is one of the best places for a healthy breakfast/brunch.Their menu boasts an enticing selection of gourmet toast, juices, smoothies, bowls and much more, each crafted with fresh ingredients and bursting with flavors.I had the pleasure of trying Greek toast and Tomato Burrata toast, they were both top-notch. The smoothies are too good that revitalized my senses and left me energized.Whether you are a health enthusiast or someone who appreciates good food, Toastique is not to be missed.”
Greek • $
“If you’re looking for fresh, authentic and delicious Greek food, this is it!! I was greeted by an attentive, friendly staff that provided exactly what we ordered. Everything was hot and packaged to perfection. The pork gyro was absolutely spectacular with the works: tender, flavorful meat, French fries, tzatziki, Tomatoes and onions on soft pita bread. You will not leave this place disappointed. Thank you Plaka Souvlaki!”

“A big shout out to my best latin place in Hoboken: Chango Kitchen. Traditional yummy latin dishes. Our faves are churrasco con chimichurri (skirt steakgrilled) and ropa vieja (shredded beef). My kids loved "alfajores with dulce de leche", "tres leches" and hot chocolate with when it's cold outside. Service is warm and friendly. We can visit the place multiple times and never get tired. #supportlocal”

Cheap Eats
Deli • $
“They are the GOAT of Hoboken Hoagies. Their fresh made daily roast beef and mozzarella sandwich is unbeatable. I've been looking forward to a sandwich every time someone says Hoboken for over 30 years. My dad used to bring them home as a treat when we were kids. They are just as good as they ever were. My picky kids love it, too! ?I would have taken a photo, but the giant delicious sandwich didn't last long enough. ”
Coffee Shops • $
“The best coffee shop in Hoboken. Finally someone doing real latte drinks, not the nitrogen $h*% and over roasted stuff.But it sadly depends on the barista at the store. Do not expect a perfect latte every time. Consistency is key, folks.”
Chinese • $
“Their chicken is amazing and so are some of the noodle dishes like drunken noodle and chow fun which have that wok charred taste. I would stay away from their curry udon - bland and has no flavor whatsoever and it tastes vinegary.”
Ice Cream Shop • $
“Super friendly staff. Loved the flavor recommendations they give. I tried the Doppio Espresso with Captain crunch gelato which is a blueberry, mascarpone and biscoff gelato. They have a lot of vegan options. You can choose between 1,2 and 3 flavours together and with cone and additional toppings. Looking forward to trying more amazing flavors here. 10/10 recommend.”
“Some of the best sandwiches in town. There is a board near the deli area with some listed suggestions, but they’ll basically put whatever you want in a sandwich.There are some interesting pantry style items here, but I wish there was more of this available.Wheelchair accessibility: Sloped entrance to get in. A bit tight with the door set up, but still manageable.”

“Ordered mango mouse cake for my partners birthday and we ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT. It was not too sweet and was perfect every bite. Thank you so much for delivering on time ? will definitely order from this place again!”
Bubble Tea • $
“One of the better options for milk tea in Hoboken. I really enjoyed their classic bubble milk tea which I ordered as hot and it came out steaming.I appreciate that they don't charge extra for having non-dairy milk options, although toppings, size, and even making it hot costs extra.One can order through Snackpass or the kiosks in the store and they make the drinks rather quickly.”
Hamburger • $
“The ambience of this place is great, and in the back there are seatings under a glass ceiling. The place is modern, and you can place the order on the touch screens. The place was not busy when I ordered, but it took a while for the order to come out. And the burger was small. The experience was disappointing here.”

“They are very welcoming to everyone and as well as your furry child which I love! Great German beers on tap. Also great place to watch sports. They have a fun DJ who is interactive and plays a very cool mix of songs. They don’t serve food but they brought in 6 ft. Subs 2 times that I showed up which they offered and passed around to everyone which I thought was awesome! My favorite dog bar!”
Japanese • $$
“Let me tell you I had a wonderful experience here! My brother and I walked literally all of hoboken to get here and it was so worth it! I had my tiny maltese with me and they were so accommodating! The owners were so friendly and kind to us even letting us sit inside once it started raining a bit. Not too far inside just like away from the rain and we all had such nice conversations ?They made us feel so welcome and really made sure we had everything we needed!I think the gentleman's name was George or Jorge who took care of us he was so nice I hope they give him a raise he even recommended some local ice cream! So friendly and helpful and just such a nice guy I love how kind he was to us man there isn't good service these days it's nice to have people be nice and just talk to us!Now the food was absolutely delicious ? we had the ramen and it was so amazing the pork had a smokey taste to it and it is so much food my brother couldn't finish his and I forced myself to finish it and I was full all day my belly was huge! 10/10 best ramen I've ever had I cant wait to go back ? I feel like I've found my little spot. I can't wait to try other items on the menu but honestly just the vibe was so friendly and nice it was enough to get me out the house and worth the walk from the lightrail!”

“My wife and I come here often and will definitely continue to. The staff is incredible, but you’re going for the pasta. I grew up around great pasta and Italian food, so I don’t like to go out for pasta because I’m constantly comparing it to what I grew up with…but this always does the trick for me. The homemade orecchiette and fresh pastas in general are fantastic, and the desserts (which I don’t typically order) are great too, especially the tiramisu and pistachio cake.My wife did a birthday brunch here and they always let you order off the full menu which is a huge plus…we’ve done larger parties as well as regular date nights here and it’s become a great go-to for us.We really hope this place continues to do well, they always seem crowded on weekends but the weekdays are fairly quiet when we walk by. I feel like it’s hard to make it in Hoboken especially as “another Italian place,” but truthfully their food is better than most, particularly the pasta, but they don’t market themselves well enough. We’re big supporters, and where can you get a full course meal for around $100 anymore? It’s byob which I feel means most bake that into their prices, but this is such a fairly priced menu with what seem to be such honest and genuine staff. If you haven’t, give them a shot. The only bit of constructive criticism here is they may be apprehensive to invest a little extra into little things like having uniform tables (there are one or two that don’t match the rest of the restaurant)…but really I don’t blame them. I feel like once they know they’ll become a neighborhood staple they’ll feel more comfortable to do so, so we’re rooting for them and will continue to keep supporting!”
