“Incredible eccentric food. Great cocktail spot.“

“Fun local bar. Great staff and patrons to hang with!“

“The focaccia topped with feta, honey, and Calabrian chilis is all I want as a bar snack—it's perfect. The Lion Skull and Distiller Coffee cocktails are two of the best in the city. The bar staff is wonderful; from manager Jacob to bartenders Justin, Matt, Matt 2, and bar backs Sammy and Danny, they all bring their own unique talents to the table and are wonderful human beings“

“Absolutely incredible experience!! Phenomenal handcrafted unique drinks and amazing staff- Val, Sam, and Jay! With the smaller space, everyone was extremely accommodating and made us feel comfortable. The atmosphere is chic and intimate. The music was perfectly curated. Only went for drinks, so we didn't get a chance to get food, but it looked delicious, and I will definitely be back! Highly recommend!!“

“Atmosphere was great, super chill and perfect for a casual night out. Callie, I hope I got her name right, did a wonderful job. She was working as both the bartender and our server and handled everything so smoothly. You could tell she was busy but still stayed friendly and attentive the whole time. The drinks were amazing too. Definitely a good spot for casual drinks with friends.

Unfortunately, the steak wasn’t our favorite. Me and my girls all ordered it and it was very hard to chew (cooked medium) and could have used more seasoning :/ That said, the fries that came with it were amazinggg.

Overall, I would definitely come back for the drinks and the vibe.“

“I stay at the Canopy every time I come to Jersey City. Their food has always been amazing and yet they continue to dazzle with a new menu with the same cravings and yummy additions. I cannot thank the team at The Studio enough for always taking care of me and making me feel at home when away from home. Shoutout to Chef Claude for THE BEST mussels I’ve had in too long a time. Thank you chef for the extra garlic!!“

“Great place had fun with friends. Good friendy staff an food looks really good. Even though I didn't actually order any myself this first visit. Also 2 for 1 shots all night definitely helped even more. They also have touch tunes jukebox. Recommend to all visit this establishment.“

“Tucked away on the second floor, this Jersey City gem is a true hidden treasure—you’d walk right past it if you weren't looking. While I visited with friends for some expertly crafted cocktails, the moody lighting and chic decor make it an absolute standout for date night. It’s the perfect atmospheric bridge between a nice dinner and a night out dancing.“

“Fantastic oysters in both quality and selection. Staff is casual and friendly. The kitchen is competent and there are good non shellfish items including a decent burger. However I found my strip steak lacking and though I was told it was a Pat LA Frieda steak, it was not the quality steak I've enjoyed from him before.“

“amazing authentic chinese food“

“Dining at this Puerto Rican restaurant was a memorable experience from start to finish. The staff is incredibly warm, friendly, and attentive, making you feel right at home. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy delicious food, great service, and a true taste of Puerto Rico.“

“I wish they played more hip hop but it was great

I need to find out what DJ plays the good music and because that's the day I want to go I don't like standing around because I don't know what song or because it's not my vibe five songs back to back not being my vibe I want to leave now but then that one song is on and I want to stay so it's like play more of that. No one's dancing when it's music that's not liked. I have a playlist of all the music that's in right now and all the music that people love to have I can give it to every DJ that shows up“

“Great food and wine! variety of cocktails, appetizers and entrées. Spacious place with chic decor.“

“Awesome atmosphere with great food & drinks! Staff was very friendly!“

“Chris was our waiter today. We came in with my wife’s 100 year old grandfather and 99 year old Grandmother on her birthday. They are from Shanghai. Chris immediately knew to bring kids waters, 2 hot waters for the grandparents and 2 regular waters for myself and my wife. Service was fast and accurate. The food soup base was perfect and the food was very fresh with great portions. The ice cream for grandma’s 99th birthday was a great touch. We look forward to coming back again.“

“Had a wonderful time here for my birthday yesterday! Service and food were excellent, especially this tuna tar-tare Roxy-style with whipped avocado and caviar. The management also went out of their way to make my night, which I really appreciate. The Roxy continues to be one of my favorite restaurants in town!“

“Lovely atmosphere. The food was super tasty, fresh, and authentic. Staff was friendly and wonderful, and cocktails were top tier.(Loved the Terina Basil) From the food to the warm hospitality and the elegant designs. What really makes this elegant restaurant out is the service, and the owners/management came over to our table and introduced themselves and made us all feel welcomed. I will definitely be returning!“

“This is our new favorite place the food and service was amazing. We enjoy our time we went during lunch time with no reservations and we didn’t wait long to be seated and our waiter was patient didn’t rush us and was kind. We are definitely going back.“

“Welcoming, friendly staff, great food, great drinks and great vibes! I love this place. Loved the salmon bites, catfish sliders and their greens. 🍔 🥬 🍷 🍹“

“This place was such a great discovery! Beautiful interior and an excellent cocktail selection, both in taste and presentation. The Gin & Jam was fantastic, and the Coconut Espresso Martini is probably one of the best espresso martinis I’ve had.

We ordered the lamb chops, which were cooked to perfection, and the oyster mushroom pasta, both dishes were outstanding. Finished with tiramisu, which was also very good.

Lastly, the staff was incredibly kind and attentive! Definitely a great spot - will be back!“

“We had a great meal wit tasty cocktails here.“

“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."“

“Excellent Ramen. Great service. Great little spot. The kimchi they bring you is divine, spicey, and delicious. The Spicey Ramen I had was amazing, even down to delicious bean sprouts. The spring rolls were on point. By far the best shrimp tempora I've had. Simple, light, crisp and delicious. Oh and the house sake was fantastic. If you're in the area, check this place out. It will not disappoint!“

“We found this restaurant by accident and it was a great experience. The ambiance, service, and quality of food is amazing. We sat at their bar and met the mixologist Camilo. He made us some of the most delicious cocktails that we’ve had in a while. The food is fusion and the flavor and balance is perfect. I left wanting to have more drinks and food. I highly recommend this restaurant it’s worth every penny.“

“87 Sussex is more than just a restaurant; it’s a full-on culinary dimension. From the moment you walk through the door, you are transported into a beautifully designed space that sets the stage for an unforgettable experience.

As someone who has worked front-of-house for years, I was blown away by the service. Amanda greeted us with such warmth and was incredibly attentive to our reservation notes. My best friend and I were celebrating a belated birthday, and the specially printed 'Happy Birthday' menus were such a thoughtful, high-end touch.

The mixology here is world-class. The Inferno Jam cocktail was a masterpiece—a smoky, sweet, and tart multi-sensory experience that I’ve never seen executed better. That level of detail carried over into every dish. The Ox & Egg and the Escargot Wontons were incredible, featuring textures and flavors that literally evolve as you eat them. For the entree, our server suggested the Osso Buco, which featured some of the best Al Dente pasta I’ve ever had and perfectly tender meat. We finished with the Chocolate Turtle Cake, which was a roller coaster of moist cake, crunchy toasted walnuts, and sweet toffee.

A massive thank you to our server, Hazem. He was the rockstar of the evening—clearly very experienced, friendly, and never left us hanging. He made us feel so welcome for our first visit. If you have a special occasion coming up, do yourself a favor and dine here. It is truly in a league of its own.“

“Everything was great at even greater prices for the quality of food and service you receive here“

“My girlfriend Mary and I celebrated her birthday at The Basement, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The food was truly phenomenal and the service was excellent—warm, attentive, and professional throughout the evening. The atmosphere made the night feel special, and everything we ordered exceeded expectations. I recommend making a reservation and giving yourself a little extra time for parking in the area. You really need to go—this restaurant is exceptional.“

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

“Such a lovely experience overall! Came here to catch up with my cousin who lives in Hoboken and wanted to try somewhere neither of us have been before. It’s so quaint and beautiful inside loved all the decor. The staff is so friendly and a good balance of accommodating but letting you just enjoy being at dinner together without the feel of being rushed out. The cocktails were amazingggg, I found myself chugging without even realizing because I just enjoyed it so much. The food was amazing and filling as well. We got the steak and chicken for dinner and the tuna for appetizer. Would definitely come here again, such a vibe. A lot of the people around us were speaking other languages than English too which I loved, felt like a real melting pot!
They also shut the lights off to sing happy birthday to another table which was really cute because it made us all get involved!“

“Nice Place“

“Vibes and more vibes def recommended“

“Absolutely stellar experience. From being beginning to end. From the warm greeting from Juan and Brian upon entering, to the cheeky banter from chef johan, to the warm smile from Kevin. It felt as though I was being welcomed into the home of an old friend who had particularly exceptional taste in music. All in all, a lovely experience that I would definitely recommend.“

“Queridos Alex y María, Desde el principio captaron mi atención. Su huella en la industria es única; a lo largo de los años, su constancia ha sido de primera. Oro para que cada proyecto en el que se aventuren multiplique su fe en Dios.“

“Food is very good and staff very attentive though menu limited. It's too loud! Music is fine but not when you can't carry on a conversation or hear the servers. I don't understand why anyone thinks that's a good thing.“

“Jose is the reason I came back. I came here back in January and had a lovely time with him and the rest of the bar staff. Today I came back with a different group of girls and they’re officially fans! Fabulous hospitality and amazing creative drinks we love this team!“
