Gaia & Loki 346 Grove St, Jersey City Vegan • $$

“Update from last review- Unfortunately the service has been pretty bad. Service to me is a big part of the overall experience dining out. I have returned several times to give it a chance since the food is good. We always get one particular server Eli who is absolutely terrible and can use customer service training. To get a hello or even a smile is a stretch but worse forgets to bring out the food and by the time he does it’s cold. Today is the last time I’m will be coming here… hopefully the owner will put more attention to the service. Unfortunately, such a beautiful place but you will continue to loose customers if the service doesn’t improve.Old review—-An amazing spot! Vegan or not… you will enjoy! From the ambiance, energy, service and of course food!! James was such a great hosts… so welcoming. Went for brunch and can’t wait to try their dinner options. I’m vegan and it can be challenging finding a good restaurant. I don’t do reviews but had to for this restaurant.. what a gem!”

DOMODOMO Jersey City 200 Greene St, Jersey City Sushi • $$$

“March 2024:We went here a 2nd time for dinner. This time on the weekend. The restaurant was full. It was hectic. Unfortunately also with the service. This time the stress was clearly noticeable. The dishes were no longer always explained beautifully. That's a real shame, especially when it comes to the chef's work. You would have to take this time because it is not exactly standard sushi. The creations require explanation to be fully enjoyed. You didn't notice anything about the quality of the food. These were still at the highest level. My recommendation: one to two more people in service or otherwise accept fewer reservations. The noise level was also unpleasantly high because of all the people.That's why now only 4 instead of 5 stars.September 2023We were here for dinner. I recommend a reservation. We had the sushi and handroll menu. The quality of the sushi I selected was the best I have ever had, and I have been to many Japanese restaurants, including Masa in NYC. The quality was excellent and even with the small toppings, which fit perfectly, it was a really great experience. It was so good that we ordered some more sushi instead of dessert. The service was attentive. There is also a good selection of sake and Japanese beers here.”

“In the wind swept streets of Jersey City there exists a small brick born eatery where fresh squeezed orange juice flows, the sausage patties are savory, and the croissants are flaky and fresh.The ambrosia delivered up by the nymphs who run this Olympus is heavenly indeed. So take a moment from your monotonous drive or your daily drudgery and stop by and take a seat atop this charming rest stop of life.Hold hands with your partner. Drink in the infectious grooves playing. Breathe deep, and long, and full your body with a truly godly meal.”

The food is always consistently great, except for the one time one dish was a little overcooked and the bartender/wait staff surreptitiously removed it from our bill when my date and I had only a softly spoken conversation with each other about it (great service). The cocktails are great, too, like really great. The back heated/covered patio is super cute.There are about six really great bar/restaurants I've discovered in JC, and Dullboy is near the top of that last.”

They have the pastor tacos in the traditional rotating-roster, and they were delish! I also had an elote ? with everything, and a tiny bit of the powder-picante was enough for me to get a kick of spice in my mouth that turned on all the right taste buds! The lady who took care of us was polite, fast, and so kind! I will definitely be back to try the other tacos they have!!”

Never had to wait for a new drink, bartenders were on top of everything.It's a local stop in Jersey City, though, so be prepared for the accent and the attitude. If you're not from Hudson County, it might seem a little rough, but this is a great spot. Lean into it.Parking: If you don't parallel park then go to a mall, you don't belong here.”

Battello 502 Washington Blvd, Jersey City Italian • $$$

“There are no words to properly thank Dominique, Tammy and the entire staff enough for all the ways that they made our wedding at Battello so special. From the moment we booked Battello we felt like we were their top priority throughout the entire planning process – quick replies, helpful answers, kindness and excitement – everything you could ever want from a venue, and a support system, in the stressful time of planning a wedding. I truly don’t even understand how they do so many weddings as they do, especially with this level of service, it’s unmatched and worth every penny. Battello is top notch from the food to the service. Being local to the area and at a Battello wedding before, we knew the venue was special (and delicious) and didn’t even tour any other alternatives before booking – call us crazy. The food at Battello is simply incomparable to any other wedding food you will ever have and it’s the #1 thing our guests still can’t stop raving about! As a restaurant it’s already expected to be above and beyond, but for a wedding event it really is the same care and deliciousness. How many venues can you say the food didn’t suffer when serving this large of a group? Unreal. Battello even allowed us to bring in small little things we wanted to personalize with such as decor and local treats/food truck vendors to make it unique to us as a couple, never once did we get pushback or no as an answer. Dominique always said yes and even made helpful suggestions with her expertise which we very much appreciated to make our wedding even better. Even beyond the food and the environment, the people who work here are the real stars who elevate the experience. Dominique as the head of events and Tammy as bridal attendant were the heroes of the night ensuring everything went according to plan but the servers and staff behind the scenes are equally as amazing and treated our guests the same way we were treated as the bride and groom. They are professional, attentive and helpful – not to mention I don’t think I went up to the bar once, there was always someone ready to refill my drink. Dominique and the staff handled everything swiftly with grace and 0 things went wrong (aside from the weather) how many couples can say their wedding was perfect? I have no words or explanation other than it was all Battello. Even when we go for dinner there months later we are treated with the same special service like we’re getting married there all over again! On top of it all, we loved that we didn’t need to do much to make Battello beautiful. Of course we had a wonderful florist who decorated, but the beauty of Battello (and the skyline view) is that the space doesn’t need much and it’s so beautiful as-is, everything else just adds to the magic! Despite the unfortunate rainy weather on our wedding day, we almost forgot it was raining the way it was so minor to the flow of our day. Dominique and Tammy were alongside us every step of the way and I am shocked to admit that the rain didn’t affect our day at all even though we couldn’t extend our party to the outside space. Battello handled the pivots due to the weather with grace and we had the most perfect wedding – even if we had to take pictures inside, I am shocked to admit that literally the only misstep of the day was the weather which was the one thing Battello (and I) couldn’t control. Battello makes it so easy for couples and it’s beyond beautiful, delicious, and one-of-a-kind special. You’d be doing yourself a disservice by not making your wedding as wonderful as it can be by booking elsewhere. Battello is it. THANK YOU to the amazing team, you all really know how to do it right and have given us and our guests so many memories to last a lifetime. My only hope is that never move away from the area so we can keep coming back for dinner and to be invited to a wedding at Battello soon to experience it all again!

Mathews Food and Drink 351 Grove St, Jersey City American • $$

“A very cute place to have Sunday brunch! My first meal after the Jersey City marathon was right here! We weren't able to put in a reservation beforehand, but we were still able to get seated when we arrived close to noon. I had the sweet potato & andouille sausage hash withOUT the sausage. The server said he could add more brussels sprouts since someone else had requested the same before, and I agreed to it (though I wasn't too hungry and didn't care either way). My meal had a beautiful presentation. The eggs were perfectly poached and there was just enough hollandaise sauce. The brussels sprouts however just seemed undercooked flavor-wise and more could have been done to better their quality. Needless to say, I finished my plate except for the brussels sprouts. All-in-all, a great cafe in an excellent location of Jersey City---well worth the visit!”

“When we began our search for our wedding venue, we could never have dreamt of the SURREAL wedding that Casey Townsend at Liberty House styled for us. From the very moment we sat down with Casey to discuss plans, it was kismet -- she listened to all of our asks, and tirelessly worked to ensure that our day was a dream. The venue itself is stunning -- you can't beat that skyline! -- and the food, how can we even express how amazing it was?! We had countless guests remark on every detail -- from the pre-ceremony cocktails to the mozzarella bar at the cocktail hour to the reception that flowed so seamlessly you would have thought Casey was a wizard! We learned that wedding planning is not for the faint of heart, but Casey walked us through every step like it was second nature for her, and we are eternally grateful for her guidance, creativity, vision, and just making us feel like part of the Liberty House family. We'll be back to celebrate our anniversary here for years to come. PLEASE run to Casey and team at Liberty House for your next event. When they say they are memory makers, they are absolutely serious! If we could give them 100000 stars, we would.”

Even in cases where there might be some mixup or altercation (I’ve seen some crazy customers) everything seems to run smoothly and I always get someone asking me if I need anything. It’s fast, filling, and easy; exactly what a McDonald’s should be.”

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.

Ruth's Chris Steak House 499 Washington Blvd, Jersey City Steak House • $$$$

“The start was quite bumpy. But first of all, the ambience. Everything is very nicely done, but you have the feeling of sitting in a large ballroom. A lot could be done better with appropriate interior design.Our waiter was very polite but still very inexperienced. Our order of wine was a bit overwhelming for the young gentleman, as was the question of a sommelier. By the way, this is a real weak point of the restaurant: there is no sommelier. There is also a relatively simple wine list that only differentiates according to grape variety. It becomes a bit difficult as a wine connoisseur if all you see in the blends is the name of the winery and the wine. Very weak, especially when you also have wines worth over $500 on the menu. Nobody could really help. So thanks to the manager we tried the open wines. But a sommelier would actually be mandatory in a restaurant like this.So it took over 30 minutes before we were able to order something. And to be honest, we thought about leaving without eating here.The food came out of the kitchen quickly. And it was worth staying here. The salad as well as the raviolo for starters were excellent. The two steaks afterwards were perfectly prepared and tasted very good. Perfectly balanced roasted flavors without overpowering the meat taste. The cooking level was perfect. The dessert was just as good as everything before it.Would I go again? To be honest, I'm torn about this. On the one hand, the food was excellent, but on the other hand, the service still needs to be worked on until it is at the level it should be. Plus the missing sommelier. I also like to drink expensive red wine with my steak, but that is simply not possible here because there is no one who can really give good advice. And if I'm lucky, I don't want to order a bottle of wine for $200 plus.”

Battello 502 Washington Blvd, Jersey City Italian • $$$

“There are no words to properly thank Dominique, Tammy and the entire staff enough for all the ways that they made our wedding at Battello so special. From the moment we booked Battello we felt like we were their top priority throughout the entire planning process – quick replies, helpful answers, kindness and excitement – everything you could ever want from a venue, and a support system, in the stressful time of planning a wedding. I truly don’t even understand how they do so many weddings as they do, especially with this level of service, it’s unmatched and worth every penny. Battello is top notch from the food to the service. Being local to the area and at a Battello wedding before, we knew the venue was special (and delicious) and didn’t even tour any other alternatives before booking – call us crazy. The food at Battello is simply incomparable to any other wedding food you will ever have and it’s the #1 thing our guests still can’t stop raving about! As a restaurant it’s already expected to be above and beyond, but for a wedding event it really is the same care and deliciousness. How many venues can you say the food didn’t suffer when serving this large of a group? Unreal. Battello even allowed us to bring in small little things we wanted to personalize with such as decor and local treats/food truck vendors to make it unique to us as a couple, never once did we get pushback or no as an answer. Dominique always said yes and even made helpful suggestions with her expertise which we very much appreciated to make our wedding even better. Even beyond the food and the environment, the people who work here are the real stars who elevate the experience. Dominique as the head of events and Tammy as bridal attendant were the heroes of the night ensuring everything went according to plan but the servers and staff behind the scenes are equally as amazing and treated our guests the same way we were treated as the bride and groom. They are professional, attentive and helpful – not to mention I don’t think I went up to the bar once, there was always someone ready to refill my drink. Dominique and the staff handled everything swiftly with grace and 0 things went wrong (aside from the weather) how many couples can say their wedding was perfect? I have no words or explanation other than it was all Battello. Even when we go for dinner there months later we are treated with the same special service like we’re getting married there all over again! On top of it all, we loved that we didn’t need to do much to make Battello beautiful. Of course we had a wonderful florist who decorated, but the beauty of Battello (and the skyline view) is that the space doesn’t need much and it’s so beautiful as-is, everything else just adds to the magic! Despite the unfortunate rainy weather on our wedding day, we almost forgot it was raining the way it was so minor to the flow of our day. Dominique and Tammy were alongside us every step of the way and I am shocked to admit that the rain didn’t affect our day at all even though we couldn’t extend our party to the outside space. Battello handled the pivots due to the weather with grace and we had the most perfect wedding – even if we had to take pictures inside, I am shocked to admit that literally the only misstep of the day was the weather which was the one thing Battello (and I) couldn’t control. Battello makes it so easy for couples and it’s beyond beautiful, delicious, and one-of-a-kind special. You’d be doing yourself a disservice by not making your wedding as wonderful as it can be by booking elsewhere. Battello is it. THANK YOU to the amazing team, you all really know how to do it right and have given us and our guests so many memories to last a lifetime. My only hope is that never move away from the area so we can keep coming back for dinner and to be invited to a wedding at Battello soon to experience it all again!

Mathews Food and Drink 351 Grove St, Jersey City American • $$

“A very cute place to have Sunday brunch! My first meal after the Jersey City marathon was right here! We weren't able to put in a reservation beforehand, but we were still able to get seated when we arrived close to noon. I had the sweet potato & andouille sausage hash withOUT the sausage. The server said he could add more brussels sprouts since someone else had requested the same before, and I agreed to it (though I wasn't too hungry and didn't care either way). My meal had a beautiful presentation. The eggs were perfectly poached and there was just enough hollandaise sauce. The brussels sprouts however just seemed undercooked flavor-wise and more could have been done to better their quality. Needless to say, I finished my plate except for the brussels sprouts. All-in-all, a great cafe in an excellent location of Jersey City---well worth the visit!”

Ruth's Chris Steak House 499 Washington Blvd, Jersey City Steak House • $$$$

“The start was quite bumpy. But first of all, the ambience. Everything is very nicely done, but you have the feeling of sitting in a large ballroom. A lot could be done better with appropriate interior design.Our waiter was very polite but still very inexperienced. Our order of wine was a bit overwhelming for the young gentleman, as was the question of a sommelier. By the way, this is a real weak point of the restaurant: there is no sommelier. There is also a relatively simple wine list that only differentiates according to grape variety. It becomes a bit difficult as a wine connoisseur if all you see in the blends is the name of the winery and the wine. Very weak, especially when you also have wines worth over $500 on the menu. Nobody could really help. So thanks to the manager we tried the open wines. But a sommelier would actually be mandatory in a restaurant like this.So it took over 30 minutes before we were able to order something. And to be honest, we thought about leaving without eating here.The food came out of the kitchen quickly. And it was worth staying here. The salad as well as the raviolo for starters were excellent. The two steaks afterwards were perfectly prepared and tasted very good. Perfectly balanced roasted flavors without overpowering the meat taste. The cooking level was perfect. The dessert was just as good as everything before it.Would I go again? To be honest, I'm torn about this. On the one hand, the food was excellent, but on the other hand, the service still needs to be worked on until it is at the level it should be. Plus the missing sommelier. I also like to drink expensive red wine with my steak, but that is simply not possible here because there is no one who can really give good advice. And if I'm lucky, I don't want to order a bottle of wine for $200 plus.”

So I have always done take-aways because even finding parking here can be hard.”

“Pleasantly surprised with my experience at Skinner's Loft. I was searching places for brunch with a friend and stumbled upon this place to try and we weren't disappointed. I got the Pancakes (8/10) and my friend got the Salami, Pepper, and Scrambled Egg sandwich which was 10/10! He let me try it and OMG instant jealousy. I would come back over and over just for that sandwich. We also had a nice waiter who was in control of the music and we were vibing out. I would definitely recommend this spot and can't wait to go back!”

Rustique Pizza 611 Jersey Ave, Jersey City Pizza • $

“THE. BEST. PIZZA. Delicious. Wonderful. Our favorite in Jersey, if not all NYC.Some argue sauce determines a good pizza. Others claim it's the crust. Rustique has discovered the perfect sauce AND crust, married them, with toppings of your choice to produce a knock your socks off yummy tasty pizza that will become your new gold standard and what you will compare every other pizza to.It's amazing enough we sometimes travel from Vermont down to the city when we get the crave. And we take a pie home (photo of pizza with a green background is Rustique pizza in Vermont)Salads are fresh and delicious.Cheesecake is stunning. Heavenly and addicting. I don't even like cheesecake, my companion insisted I try a bite, since that one bite I'm hooked. Not cheesecake from anywhere mind you, only cheesecake from Rustique.”

“Casual brunch spot in Jersey City. The only place I could find that opened before 11AM. I think the atmosphere is better when it’s warm and you can sit outside.Place doesn’t really have any character, but the food was very good. They have brunch drink specials for $5 or $10 for a double.My friend and I both ordered Prosecco and chicken n waffles. Prosecco was $12/glass.Food was excellent. They also brought us some kind of muffin with jam which was a nice touch.”

Ruth's Chris Steak House 499 Washington Blvd, Jersey City Steak House • $$$$

“The start was quite bumpy. But first of all, the ambience. Everything is very nicely done, but you have the feeling of sitting in a large ballroom. A lot could be done better with appropriate interior design.Our waiter was very polite but still very inexperienced. Our order of wine was a bit overwhelming for the young gentleman, as was the question of a sommelier. By the way, this is a real weak point of the restaurant: there is no sommelier. There is also a relatively simple wine list that only differentiates according to grape variety. It becomes a bit difficult as a wine connoisseur if all you see in the blends is the name of the winery and the wine. Very weak, especially when you also have wines worth over $500 on the menu. Nobody could really help. So thanks to the manager we tried the open wines. But a sommelier would actually be mandatory in a restaurant like this.So it took over 30 minutes before we were able to order something. And to be honest, we thought about leaving without eating here.The food came out of the kitchen quickly. And it was worth staying here. The salad as well as the raviolo for starters were excellent. The two steaks afterwards were perfectly prepared and tasted very good. Perfectly balanced roasted flavors without overpowering the meat taste. The cooking level was perfect. The dessert was just as good as everything before it.Would I go again? To be honest, I'm torn about this. On the one hand, the food was excellent, but on the other hand, the service still needs to be worked on until it is at the level it should be. Plus the missing sommelier. I also like to drink expensive red wine with my steak, but that is simply not possible here because there is no one who can really give good advice. And if I'm lucky, I don't want to order a bottle of wine for $200 plus.”

“When we began our search for our wedding venue, we could never have dreamt of the SURREAL wedding that Casey Townsend at Liberty House styled for us. From the very moment we sat down with Casey to discuss plans, it was kismet -- she listened to all of our asks, and tirelessly worked to ensure that our day was a dream. The venue itself is stunning -- you can't beat that skyline! -- and the food, how can we even express how amazing it was?! We had countless guests remark on every detail -- from the pre-ceremony cocktails to the mozzarella bar at the cocktail hour to the reception that flowed so seamlessly you would have thought Casey was a wizard! We learned that wedding planning is not for the faint of heart, but Casey walked us through every step like it was second nature for her, and we are eternally grateful for her guidance, creativity, vision, and just making us feel like part of the Liberty House family. We'll be back to celebrate our anniversary here for years to come. PLEASE run to Casey and team at Liberty House for your next event. When they say they are memory makers, they are absolutely serious! If we could give them 100000 stars, we would.”

“Manager is respectful and straight forward to all employees . He is old school he complements hard workers for those who earn it. His priority is customer care. If your lazy and a complainer who freeloads yet job isn’t being done he will let you know it and it won’t be pleasant place to work so I would suggest you apply elsewhere if your any of those negative things mentioned. I appreciate his respect and family friendly environment he places in the work place and hope it will be a long journey.”
