Restaurants in Jersey City

“Craft cocktails in a cozy colorful outdoor patio. The perfect place to relax after a long week!”

“This place is a treat! We got a recommendation to try out Corto by a Jono Pandolfi Ceramics staff and it was worth it!!

Hands down the best Rigatoni I’ve ever had. It always hits the spot for me. We tried almost all items on their menu, but there is always new dish to try since their menu changes based on the season. The whole sea bream and pork shoulder are delightful as well.

Being so popular, you have to make a reservation in advance. Again, it’s worth it!!
Corto is byob, so you can pick up a bottle of wine at a cute wineshop around the corner.

Dietary restrictions: They take note of any allergy or dietary restriction

Wheelchair accessibility: Not sure”

“Excellent food, warm, inviting decor, friendly staff.”

“Stellar service! Will definitely be back.”

“Chongqing Chicken is great!”

“Have been curious why this place got such high rating so I came here for a one-person brunch on Sat. They really deserve the high rating.

1) coffee: most coffee shops just provide same level coffee as Starbucks, but this place is serious about their coffee beans and provide way better coffee than a Nespresso machine or Starbucks. Def tier 1 of the coffee I’ve tried. Besides, their latte price starts at $4.xx. I’m surprised at the lower price they are offering (vs $6.xx latte elsewhere) with such high quality taste.

2) food and service: I did not get a chance to try their “hot” food as the kitchen was closed 2 mins before I ordered. However the service made the whole experience beyond expectations: a) the waitress apologized for not letting me know the kitchen was closed 2 mins earlier. She did not have to apologize at all as I literally walked in 2 or 3 mins before I ordered - no difference would have been made even if she reminded me, but I appreciated her attitude. b) I saw they have “brioche sandwich” on the menu, knowing kitchen has closed I asked if I can just get a slice of toast. They gave me an exception and allowed me to order a brioche toast, what’s surprising was they also toasted it so it’s way more presentable and tasteful as a food itself. BTW the toast tasted great. And their price is reasonable.

3) very dog friendly: from the second I walked in with my dog, he was welcomed by the waitress. During my whole visit in the coffee shop, no one ever questioned, judged or confronted me.
It’s actually not too common in JC.
I usually would be prepared to answer questions like: “is your dog a service animal? What’s the specially was he trained for? Pls keep your animal on the floor all the time and be prepared to leave if other customers complained”.
Their customers (mostly from near neighborhoods) were also super dog friendly, most of them petted him and smiled at him.

For the 3 reasons above, I will be coming back in the future.”

“The food quality and set menus they have are really solid for sushi and quite delicious. I feel like it gets a little pricy and that’s why I reviewed them at a 4 VS 5 stars as I know I can get equally as good of a handroll in the city for a substantial amount less, but overall this is a good staple in Jersey City. The udon and miso cod are also pretty tasty.”

“Amazing experience! One of the best vegan entrees I’ve had in a long time”

“Took the kids for lunch and my goodness was the food fantastic! The portions were generous enough that my teenage son actually got full! The kids had the chicken fingers with fries and I had the Banh Mi. My sandwich was amazing!! Can't wait to go again!”

“I honestly can't remember the last time I visited a restaurant and gave it a perfect 10 across the board, but this place truly deserves it. From the moment I walked in, I was impressed. I needed the restroom right away, and the bartender, Orlando, kindly escorted me to it, making me feel so welcomed. Once we were seated, the food started arriving, and I was blown away. The chef here is absolutely amazing. Her dishes are not only delicious but also incredibly well-prepared. The unique flavor combinations and creativity are outstanding. It's honestly some of the best food and service I've had in a while. I left feeling like I spent my money very happily. I truly hope this hidden gem and the talented chef behind it get the recognition they deserve for their incredible work."”

“I love, love, love the service and the food. Great overall experience. I was at the food truck today in Paulus Hook. I 100% recommend. Ashraf is the best! (Hopefully I spelt his name correctly). Had to buy more to go.”

“This cute little "hole in the wall" is truly a hidden gem! While in reality, it's no hole in the wall at all. You actually feel like you're in a small shop in India when dining-in with the colorful decorations, background music and overall setup of the restaurant. Not to mention the food, which was absolutely amazing! Very tasteful chaat and small dishes, each with it's own little twist. I got:

-masala chai
-mango lassi
-Chinese Frankie (get it on a paratha)
-Chili Cheese Corn Grilled Sandwich
-to top it off, get their Chocolate Pan - it was bomb!

EVERYTHING was 10/10. I loved the food so much, I get went again the next day.

Ask for Ajay or Shubham - very friendly folks who'll take great care of you while there!”

“Siempre que puedo lo visito, me encanta su ambiente y su comida 💕🇮🇳🇪🇨”

“We ordered takeout for the first time from this place, and it was fantastic! We had been wanting to try it for a while. We ordered the paneer timepass, dabeli, butter locho, pav bhaji, and cold coffee. The food was amazing—great portion sizes and a traditional taste in every item. The prices were very reasonable, too. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Excellent food and great customer service. Overall an amazing experience”

“Wow! Had an outstanding night at the Roxy and I think it’s been my best bite in JC.

Service was incredible, friendly, and attentive. We did go at an off peak time, so we got extra special service. However, I think at any time the service would be top notch.

The cocktails were excellent. Extremely balanced, delicious and amazingly seasonal.

The food was soooo good. I had the short rib special and I highly recommend it while it’s available. Absolutely delicious and the best short rib dish I’ve had.

I can’t wait to return!”

“Beautiful place Great food and Great Drink's and the staff is excellent.”

“I've been here a few times now, and overall, I really like it.

Apps are good. I've had the labneh and hummus. The only complaint is that the portion is a little small. the pita, in particular, is not enough for the amount of dip on the plate.

I've also had the charred cabbage, and it was not for me. Not particularly bad, I did finish it, though aside from the charred exterior, it was basically completely raw. I wasn't expecting fully cooked, soft cabbage, but a slightly lower heat would still get a good char on the outside while at least slightly softening the inside of this large wedge of cabbage. The sauce that was drizzled on top was quite spicy and good.

The corn ribs were definitely the superior small dish compared to the cabbage, although I do think the portion is too small. I could eat roughly 500 of those little things.

I don't see it on the menu anymore, but on my first trip there, I had a fried calamari and "chorizo" sandwich. There was a slaw on there that was very tasty, and the calamari itself was cooked well and was nice and crunchy. Hated the chorizo. It tasted like a cheap Jimmy Dean frozen breakfast patty. Never had a chorizo that tasted like that in my life. I picked it off and ate the sandwich without it.

Also had the pappardelle. No complaints. Delicious. Cleaned that plate in like 5 minutes. Although once again, especially for pasta, the portion was quite small.

Lastly, for my drink, I had the Nico's Song mocktail. In my opinion, it is completely undrinkable. Even though ginger is listed as the 3rd ingredient following both beet and orange juice, it was the only thing i could taste. Way too heavy on the ginger. The server definitely saw that i had barely touched the drink but didn't ask me if I liked it. I did end up just asking her if this drink was always this gingery; she mostly ignored the question, although she was kind enough to take it off the bill.

The atmosphere here is really great & the pride flags hanging like a cute little halo over the bar makes me feel good about bringing my parter here and spending money at this business. Music is a little loud but tasteful and the table arrangement/decor is really nice. Although the last time I was here, there was a table with kids all with their shoes off & their feet on the tables.

There a lot of restaurants in JC to compete with, but I still see myself coming back here every now and again.”

“Excellent food and very good service. BYOB!”

“I absolutely love Rumba Cubana! This location is perfect also. The restaurant is situated next to a park in the downtown area of Jersey City. The staff are kind and professional, great service. I’ve dined in/outside and ordered delivery once. Ordering delivery was definitely a huge disappointment. I ordered the Tropical Salad with grilled Salmon but the piece of salmon was so tiny. Dining in, they are usually generous with the proteins added. I feel like this was a very upsetting experience. Overall, it’s definitely my go-to place. The Papa Rellenas are delicious, the frozen lemonade is a must and you cannot leave without ordering some of the guava and cheese empanadas!”

“Exceptional high quality unique dishes. I loved every bite and can’t wait to go back! Definitely one of my top picks for Jersey City⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“We discovered Mathew's just yesterday and enjoyed a great lunch with their extremely pleasant staff. We'll be back.”

“Great for a date or girls night, packed but somehow we got bar seats immediately. Staff was kind, lighting was right, cocktails were above par and food was fun and different! WILL be coming back for half priced pasta on a Tuesday.”

“Great food and super friendly staff who couldn’t do more for you. Had such a lovely evening here. Highly recommend!”

“this place is a must go to. the food is amazing as well as the service and drinks. Definitely on my top 10”

“They have amazingly tasty food 😉 food 🥘 and specially love their buffet”

“The omakase is good for the price. The service was friendly and attentive. The only issue is the decor and music felt like I was at a party instead of a nice omakase restaurant. This took away from the nice experience we had during our visit.”

“The food is delicious and Mihai is the best waiter!”

“Amazing Margaritas! Great staff and food. A MUST in Jersey07302!”

“This place is so romatic and the staff and food are great. We left happy and ready to return soon.”

“Everything was fantastic. Very tasty and authentic. The tiny desserts were an excellent addition to the dinner. The person who came quickly set up the chafing dishes and plastic dinnerware. Couldn't ask for more.”

“Food is excellent, staff is very attentive and friendly - atmosphere is very romantic. I highly recommend.”

“Delicious Dominican food, the place is small but the attention and the food is great I have no complaints and the prices are average 🙌🏼

Keeps everything nice, clean and organized. 100/10!! I recommend it!”

“Dunkin' has really impressed me with their delicious food offerings, from freshly baked donuts to flavorful breakfast sandwiches. The staff here is always friendly and attentive, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, perfect for catching up with friends or enjoying a quick bite. Highly recommend for a satisfying meal any time of day!"”

“My family and I went to Stella’s eatery late at night. The food and service were spectacular! Also, I HIGHLY recommend the grandma slice.

Vegetarian options: The pizza’s, garlic bread, garlic knots, and many other menu items are all vegetarian.”

“I moved from Jersey City 25 year ago.
I still have my mother in Jersey.
I decided to take her to IHOP by 440.
I was so impressed!!!
The new management makes a big difference!!!”

“There was no vanilla with sprinkles (my favourite)but they worked hard to make those donuts and the atmosphere was very clean and good and my friends enjoyed the donuts but they wanted more.

Kid-friendliness: The kids loved the donuts and they wanted some more but mom said "Only one donut per kid.".”

“This particular DD on Route 440, Jersey City, NJ has an 'Awesome' staff. They are very courteous and customer service oriented. Their coffee, latte etc are always made with 'Excellence', tasting good every time!”

“Absolutely fantastic! Can’t wait to return!”

“It's a juice bar. So, I can't give it more than three (3) stars. It's good. I ordered a green juice made fresh. The women behind the counter were helpful and nice. I told them exactly what I wanted in it. They made a tasty green juice for me.”

“We have gotten take out from here several times and have loved the food. We go here for our Kerala food fix and the flavors are spot on. The food feels homemade and the spices are just right. My personal favorites are the banana leaf fish pollichathu, kerala chicken fry, chicken roast, chicken curry and fish curry with the tapioca. The owners are lovely people too!”

“I’ve been wanting to come here for the past 2 months here. Last night, finally I was able to come. I am shocked that they’ve been in business for more than a year and I just found them now?Being an avid bubble tea lover along with my kids, I can’t say enough good things about this place. It is a hidden gem in the heart of JSQ. The owner is very down to earth and a people person. You won’t step out of that place without a smile. She will make your drink according to your preference. You can make as many adjustments as you’d like and she will do it with a smile.

We ordered 2 Oreo shakes and a latte bubble tea. I ordered them in M size, but she gave me in L size? and still charged me for M. My kids loved their Oreo shakes and I very much enjoyed my latte. I can’t wait to go back and try the other bubble tea flavors and the waffles and crepes.

I pray that their business thrives and expands!”

“You can tell the owner puts so much care and passion into the food. The atmosphere feels intimate and cozy, like a hole in the wall does. The crab cake pad Thai was particularly tasty. Delicious food at a reasonable price that is well worth the wait and patience (since the owner is both the only waiter and only chef)!”

“Travels great for any tailgate!! 10/10”

“Great quality coffee and awesome staff. Thanks a lot for coming down to The Beacon every week to caffeinate our day.”

“I've been here so many times I've lost count. My favorite dish is the oil spill noodles. I typically also order the delicious homemade yogurt to soothe the heat of the spice.”

“My bro brought me the Spicy Italian home. This was the best sandwich I have had in years. Authentic tasting. The bread was on point. And that cherry pepper spread was perfetto! Fantastic work!”

“Great food selection. A lot of vegetarian options too and a lot of the dishes can be made vegetarian per request. I went with dandan noodles and the cold salad. The place has nice ambience and it’s 10 mins walk from the exchange place path station.”

“I live in the area and attend college out of town so getting to the library on my off days is tough. I've been looking for a place with a chill ambiance, wifi, good tea, and coffee. Well, look no more for me. I thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Great rustic look, comfy seating with back support, loads of outlets for laptops, and the second-floor space are super cute and cozy too. Oh and there's a small little outside area that's pretty cool as well. Shaquille (hope I spelled it right) was AMAZING! So down-to-earth, friendly, polite, and easy to talk to. She made me the Tumeric latte for me and I all but licked the cup clean. I had the hummus & cucumber on sourdough toast and it was divine. Also, a great option for vegans. I totally recommend this place if you have similar needs or just want to hang out with some friends. I will surely be going back.”

“I have been buying their hot dogs for 48 years and they have the best chili. I travel 1-1/2 hours to buy their chili for my BBQ parties.”

“have been going for 40 years always a pleasure wonderful staff consistent quality Deli”

“This was my second time here and it was just as good as the first! The place felt upscale, service was friendly and we were offered complimentary seconds of wine. Highly recommend the octopus pasta and Korean fried chicken. Very cute date night spot.

Will be back!”

“Each meal I’ve had to date at Next Door Provisions has been consistently wonderful, and the casual and chic decor there (bonus points if you’re a plant or comic nerd!) married with friendly and efficient service always bring me, my family, and friends back again and again. We’ve celebrated many birthdays, reunions, and last-minute meetups at NDP, and I have never been disappointed by the food or the service. This is likely one of Jersey City’s best-kept secrets, and can rival any Michelin-starred or trendy restaurant across the Hudson. In a way, I’m glad NDP is still pretty low-key neighborhood food purveyor, but would be more than happy to see them really blow up and get the recognition and following that the extraordinary Chef Ruby deserves. Five stars, ten snaps, and five forks from me and my crew!”

“The absolute best Tacos in Jersey City. They are so good, I haven't been able to find a runner up. The people who work here are also super nice, I recommend this truck!”

“I ordered takeout from Kulchay recently and had a positive experience. The woman working there was incredibly friendly and helpful while I waited. I tried their signature naanizza which is a fusion of naan and pizza. Both the chicken tikka and super supreme naanizzas were delicious. Even though I got stuck in traffic and had to reheat them at home, they still tasted great although I imagine they would be even better fresh out of the oven. I also tried the halwa naan for dessert which was decent but not something I would order again. All the food here is halal and I definitely plan to come back to try more items from their menu.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​”

“We drove right past it but THANK GOD we were able to turn around and get to it the food was heavenly juicy hot and suuuuper tasty the cook we spoke with was amazingly patient as he could see we wanted the entire menu but didn’t know how to order it lol the man was a saint and got us exactly what we wanted we were in such disbelief that such amazing tacos came from such a small spot but it’s clearly a top shelf establishment and will continuously recommend this place”

“How do I love Crema, let me count the ways … Nutella Toast, Avo Toast, Mozz Toast, Beef Empanadas, Waffles and amazing brews ☕️”

“Amazing coffee shop!”

“Great place to read and work! Also, the staff was GREAT!”

“The curries are my fav! Dumplings are yum, and if you are a meat eater try Korean bbq short rib, it’s beyond! 😋”

“We liked this place very much. The food is great. I'm not Vietnamese but whatever I ate felt authentic. Nice flavors and satisfying quantities. The service and ambience were also good. It was a pleasure to dine here. We will surely visit here again.”

“The food is very flavorful and delicious. There are a nice variety of meals and the delivery service is excellent.”

“My first trip to Jersey lead me to Tinos and I am so lucky to have found them! Their cute outdoor dining area was shaded. Menu has tons of options - I had the Margherita pizza, Pinot and a cannoli! All are delicious and I can't wait to return. The pizza is the best I've ever had - crispy but still foldable thin crust, flavorful sauce, and top quality mozzarella and EVOO. My waiter was kind and attentive, who informed me that Tino still comes in and does things like weeding the plants. He also said that they are terrific employers. Not many places today hit all the check marks, but Tino's hits it out of the ballpark.”

“White star is amazing! One of the best places to get a cocktail & burger, their nachos are to die for!! My partner and I are regulars to this place! A special shoutout to Ryan- he is the most friendly, patient and accommodating person. He always brings a smile to our faces and he’s always quick & thoughtful! He def ups white star’s game!!

Dietary restrictions: Great for gluten free ppl!”

“Very good experience at this place . One of the staff named Milagros was very friendly. I recommend this place for Filipino food lovers. We only paid for one bucket but it became 2!❤️”

“We ordered so many incredible signature dishes. The lamb moussaka was 5 stars! To really test them we ordered one of the best lahmanchoun’s we’ve tasted in NY! Cozy atmosphere, attentive waitstaff, Momo JC definitely exceeded our expectations!”

“Jersey & Co. is without a doubt the best gelato shop around. Absolutely delicious. The owner Peter studied gelato making in Italy and clearly has a passion and talent for creating incredible flavors. Some of our favorites are the Amarena, Cookies&Cream, Mango, and White Coffee flavors.

My fiancèe and I happened to meet Peter at an event and once we tried his gelato, we knew we had to have Jersey & Co. at our wedding. They not only knocked it out of the park with a delicious assortment of gelatos, but they also took such great care of us as people, going the extra mile every step of the way to make our wedding as special as possible. They even made a new gelato flavor just for our wedding!

We had previously done a ton of research of other shops in the NY/NJ area and everywhere we looked, either the product was subpar or the correspondence left us feeling unsure. But Jersey&co is gem of a local business that stands out for not only creating an outstanding product but also caring deeply for their customers. 10/10 would recommend to anybody who's looking for dessert catering for an event/wedding or simply wants a taste of some excellent gelato.”

“Very outgoing, the environment and staff are friendly and welcoming. Thanks”

“The food drinks and views are excellent… can’t wait to go back and bring friends!!”

“I've never tasted anything more disgusting in my life. My salad had so much dirt on it, I had to send it back. They offered to wash it and bring it back. 🤣 No! How about follow basic kitchen prep guidelines with like water and such. Place should be shut down for healthcode violations.”

“LOVE this spot!! The staff are the most accommodating team of people you could ask for. The food is DELISH and the vibe is exclusive and upscale. The music whether it’s live or a DJ is always on point. Hookah and Valet parking available. A STAPLE in JC!! get in while you can you WILL NOT regret it!”

“Me parece muy excelente el chevy Grocery de muy buena calidad todos los q venden , te invito a visitarlos.”

“Wow….we just had my daughter’s wedding at Liberty Prime steakhouse, 160 guests. The entire evening was magical. The staff really hustled and made everyone happy. The food was fantastic. Such a cool, fun vibe. The signature cocktails were awesome. Thank you Liberty Prime for making my daughters big day a huge success!”

“This is one of those places that you have to try it’s not your regular bakery and definitely not on the cheap side however if you want the best you come here and if you think there over priced I get it, just go to a dinner this is not the spot to cry a doubt 18$ salad”

“The barista really knows his stuff! Great for coffee lovers who want to try different coffee preparation styles as well as people who just like coffee. They also have amazing tea”

“Great vibe. Friendly,warm and kudos to Desiree who was wonderful.”

“New to the area and wanted a beer and burger so I Yelped this place. Drove past and wasn't sure I wanted to go in as the area around was very seedy, and the tavern had no sign out front and was really run down looking. However, I decided to go in with my boyfriend. The food was awesome and the service was great!! A must try, but bring Cash, it's a cash only place. Chili and Pastrami were great too!”

“Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, these chicken wings are a flavor-packed delight. The perfect balance of heat and tang in the sauce elevates each bite, while the meat effortlessly falls off the bone.”

“El Ranchero is my favorite taqueria in the bayshore. The tacos are the best in the area and the mole is delicious. The food is fresh and the service is fantastic. I recommend this to anyone! A wonderful place to practice my spanish! El Ranchero es mi taquería favorita. Los tacos son los mejores de la zona y el mole es delicioso. La comida es fresca y el servicio es fantástico. ¡Yo recomiendo esto a cualquiera!”

“love it. old school shoppe prices a very readonable.”

“We were first timer’s today… the girl that help us was so sweet and kind! The service was excellent! My son loved the brown sugar milk with bubbles!”

“As a fat man and a traveler, I've had pastries from all over the world. And these are as good as Ive had anywhere. And the eggs were cooked perfectly on my sandwich. And no one ever cooks eggs perfectly. 5 Stars!”

“Staff is very attentive and courteous. Food is delicious and freshly cooked. Bathroom is very clean. Nice clientele. Love going there !”

“Cangiano's is a delightful gem of a find for all things Italian in Jersey City. We found this Deli to be an excellent source for Italian groceries and cooked meals, including sandwiches and pastas. There is an enormous selection of options,and the staff is super nice and friendly. We had the Penne Pasta in Vodka Sauce as well as a Grilled Chicken sandwich and both were excellent. We are excited to come back for more!”

“The argana grill is a solid spot if you're in the mood for casual dining with a variety of grilled options. The menu typically offers a good mix of dishes, from burgers and sandwiches to more hearty meals like steaks and seafood. The food is generally tasty and well-prepared, with portions that are satisfying. The atmosphere is laid-back, making it a good place for a casual meal with friends or family. Service can vary depending on how busy it is, but overall, it's a decent choice for a quick and flavorful meal.”

“Absolutely love the coffee, pastries! Almond croissant slaps, I can honestly go in and never get a bad cup, cannot recommend this place more, wish they extend their hours more cause I want to get a coffee even after work too!!”

“Great little neighborhood spot… we watched their regulars be welcomed in with a genuine greeting and smile, and as first-timers, we were impressed with the owner’s friendliness and time spent getting to know us. Everything we ordered was fabulous… Savory comfort food and affordable. Will definitely be back to this charming restaurant next time we visit NJ. Outstanding! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻”

“Good ?”

“Visited today, requested senior citizen discount she, Ms. Yamira, Mgr apprehensively Said, "No"!!. Very nasty, unprofessional, needs to take sensitivity trainings. One day she will be a senior citizen and get payback. What goes around comes around”

“this place was really fast and food was sooo good”

“I always thought of this place primarily in terms of takeout but I had my daughter's first birthday there a couple of weeks ago and would be remiss not to share what a wonderful experience it was on all fronts. First of all, as other reviewers have noted the food is incredible. Every single person in our party raved about their meals--mostly pizza orders, but I had a hot sub and I could not devour it fast enough, it was so delicious. Quality ingredients and really authentic preparation. Beyond the great food though I want to highlight what a lovely experience we had at the establishment. The restaurant was so accommodating to our needs--they let us bring in our own decorations and cake, even let me come in early to set up, and it really made the day feel special and personal. Unlike most other places, they also let us relax and enjoy ourselves. We lingered for a while and at no point did they make us feel like we needed to wrap it up and leave. As the mother of the birthday girl it really meant a lot to me, and I don't think I would have gotten that experience anywhere else. Finally, I'd like to compliment the staff who took such good care of us--they were professional and friendly and continuously offered to help with whatever we needed. We were a party of 21 including four little kids so I'm sure at points we were a lot to take! But all we received from the staff were pleasantries and smiles. I'd recommend to anyone not just making this your go-to pizza place for takeout, but thinking of them for your next gathering as well. Or a meal out, it's not a frilly sceney place but it's got a cozy, homey feel that's perfect for intimate conversation and catching up. Thank you Rustique for making my daughter's birthday so special.”

“Best Pizzeria By Far. The Owners are AWESOME!!! Everything I Tried Was Great. I Was Looking For A Loophole, And Say That There Has To Be Something That Is Just Halfway Decent ??? NOPE I COULDN'T FIND IT. Hands Down EVERYTHING WAS AN ABSOLUTE 10!!!!!!”

“Best food- not sure what these bad reviews are about but we ordered delivery and our food was fresh, portions great and we totally enjoyed it and will return.”

“We reserved the private room on the lower level for a family reunion for 27 people. The restaurant was centrally located for our families in Westchester, Long Island, and Philadelphia. The kitchen and staff were amazingly friendly and the food outstanding. The price-fixed Saturday brunch menu was tailored to our Gluten-free, Vegan and vegetarian’s needs. The service staff were warm and friendly and delivered our food quickly and accurately. The bar (shout-out to Jr.) served excellent cocktails at a reasonable price. Alexa S., the manager, was very helpful answering all our questions organizing the day and was very attentive during our gathering. We all enjoyed the day and highly recommend Amelia's Bistro and will definitely return for other family events.”

“Great tasting Bagels. Its “Santa Fe" bagel is a meal on its own to get! Very friendly staff. Bri & person making the bread show experienced hospitality workers, taking a lot of pride and professionalism at this shop. Seating & atmosphere is convenient & comfortable, near the Newport mall.”

“I don't say this about many places, but the fried chicken here is really good. Nice crispy exterior with a juicy interior. There are also so many menu options to choose from. Not to mention the buy 1 get one deal you can get if you order online. The customer service is also excellent. I can here so often we're on a first name basis.”

“have been going for 40 years always a pleasure wonderful staff consistent quality Deli”

“Realizamos una reunión de improvisto en la zona el día jueves y quedamos encantados con las feel good salad que solicitamos , la atención fue excelente .”

“This place is so romatic and the staff and food are great. We left happy and ready to return soon.”

“I have been buying their hot dogs for 48 years and they have the best chili. I travel 1-1/2 hours to buy their chili for my BBQ parties.”

“both food and ambiance is great! one of my regular lunch and dinner spots. Staff is very kind and generous. try their desserts and fresh juices too, that pineapple ginger will make you feel brand new.”

“They are rescuing Newark Ave. Absolutely the finast dinner. Those in the CourtHouse neighborhood should make Yub's 78 a regular stop.”

“I came about this restaurant driving on the 440 in Jersey City and looking for something to eat and Walla I found my to go place, whenever I want to eat Vietnamese food this is my place to go! Love the Food, the workers very friendly and the atmosphere. I have been there numerous of time and will continue to go there. I love their Mi Hoanh Thanh, Pho Tom, Pad Kee Mao with Beef,Bun Tom Nuong Cha Gio, Goi Cuon and of course their Delicious Mango smoothie to die for!!!!!! lol.”

“This cute little "hole in the wall" is truly a hidden gem! While in reality, it's no hole in the wall at all. You actually feel like you're in a small shop in India when dining-in with the colorful decorations, background music and overall setup of the restaurant. Not to mention the food, which was absolutely amazing! Very tasteful chaat and small dishes, each with it's own little twist. I got:

-masala chai
-mango lassi
-Chinese Frankie (get it on a paratha)

“Stopped in while visiting by boat, close to locL marinas. Big portions, good food, reasonable pricing and great service. Has breakfast and would go back for other menu items later in the day.

Very good great job thank you! Will be back for sure!”

“I stopped coming to this restaurant years ago because of an odd smell, but when a friend wanted to go, I decided to give it another shot—and I’m so glad I did! The place has completely transformed. The service was excellent, and our server, Yousry, was incredibly attentive. The drinks were spot on, and the food was fresh and delicious. I was truly impressed and will definitely be back.

As someone who grew up in Jersey City, I’ve seen this place change a lot, and it’s for the better. A special shoutout to the manager, Berta, who was so friendly and made sure I got my drinks quickly when there was a bit of a wait at the bar. Great experience all around!”

“Very good experience at this place . One of the staff named Milagros was very friendly. I recommend this place for Filipino food lovers. We only paid for one bucket but it became 2!❤️”

“Have been curious why this place got such high rating so I came here for a one-person brunch on Sat. They really deserve the high rating.

1) coffee: most coffee shops just provide same level coffee as Starbucks, but this place is serious about their coffee beans and provide way better coffee than a Nespresso machine or Starbucks. Def tier 1 of the coffee I’ve tried. Besides, their latte price starts at $4.xx. I’m surprised at the lower price they are offering (vs $6.xx latte elsewhere) with such high quality taste.

2) food and service: I did not get a chance to try their “hot” food as the kitchen was closed 2 mins before I ordered. However the service made the whole experience beyond expectations: a) the waitress apologized for not letting me know the kitchen was closed 2 mins earlier. She did not have to apologize at all as I literally walked in 2 or 3 mins before I ordered - no difference would have been made even if she reminded me, but I appreciated her attitude. b) I saw they have “brioche sandwich” on the menu, knowing kitchen has closed I asked if I can just get a slice of toast. They gave me an exception and allowed me to order a brioche toast, what’s surprising was they also toasted it so it’s way more presentable and tasteful as a food itself. BTW the toast tasted great. And their price is reasonable.

3) very dog friendly: from the second I walked in with my dog, he was welcomed by the waitress. During my whole visit in the coffee shop, no one ever questioned, judged or confronted me.
It’s actually not too common in JC.
I usually would be prepared to answer questions like: “is your dog a service animal? What’s the specially was he trained for? Pls keep your animal on the floor all the time and be prepared to leave if other customers complained”.
Their customers (mostly from near neighborhoods) were also super dog friendly, most of them petted him and smiled at him.

For the 3 reasons above, I will be coming back in the future.”

“The only restaurant we dine at in India Square! Literally here at least twice per month, and always our first choice when we want to stay in and order online. The food always comes out on time and delicious. We always get the special chicken biryani and chicken tandoori and they always come out flavourful and juicy. We’ve had their naans before too and they were also exceptional. I have noticed recently though that the food sometimes doesn’t come out hot.

My husband and I are introverts and we really appreciate the chill and relaxed service we receive. Not too pushy or hover-y, just comfortable. I also really love the vibe here! I absolutely LOVE that they show Bollywood on their TV! I don’t understand a thing, but it’s such a nice touch it makes the restaurant feel homey and local. A LOT of locals dine here too and the restaurant is never empty, if not full, so I think that speaks a lot about their food.

Overall, we love Southern Spice! Absolutely have been recommending to our friends, and now to all of Google!”

“Great place. Very surprised, not expecting much, first time ever there in January 2022. Food selections is great and tasty, the place is packed.”

“A perfect place to try any paratha, and butter chicken at its best. Very friendly service, and they ensure to make sure even rude customers who come with desi attitude is also treated well.. give them a visit and you will defenitly be well served...cheers”
