Restaurants in Hoboken

“The ranch dressing with the bbq Pollo is absolutely incredible”

“Few places are as accommodating as the staff here. The menu, although on available digitally, is extensive. Large selection of GF (gluten free) items. You can start with apps, choose from pizza or pasta as an entree. It is BYOB and that can make for a fun evening. They will accommodate to suit taste, we had someone that was sensitive to sodium, they adjusted sted the entree to suit. The place is small, the food tasty and seriously, the service is over the top.”

“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.”

“The chili sauce is sweeter than I prefer; I'm more of a spicy person.
I did visit during a relatively quiet time, but my food took a long time to arrive. Since I don't drink alcohol, the wait was a little tedious and made me hungry.
Everything else was excellent 👍”

“Really neat little place, friendly people, delicious treats!”

“Doughnuts are super yummy! And the milkshakes are soooo good!”

I also liked how simple and customizable the menu was, made it easy to order. I will definitely be visiting Abi's again!”

“Toast & Bowl is a hidden gem! The Bulgogi Rice is packed with flavor — tender, perfectly marinated beef over warm rice that’s both comforting and satisfying. The Popcorn Chicken is crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned just right — seriously addictive. And the Sweet & Spicy Sandwich is the perfect balance of heat and sweetness, with a delicious crunch in every bite. Everything tastes fresh and well-made. Definitely coming back for more!”

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.”

“Awesome venue with great service and live music. Definitely check it out”

“We had our wedding after party at the Waiting Room, for ~50 guests.

I cannot recommend them enough! Service was impeccable from start to finish and pricing was competitive with downtown Hoboken.

The event coordinator, Avery was prompt and incredible helpful in getting all of the details right. Mike was attentive and delivered on every ask on the night of. Jessie was a gem behind the bar and was wonderful in the planning phases to help me nail down the drink package! Ryan showed incredible range with his DJing and kept the dancefloor lively all night.

Cocktail menu is fantastic as well!

I plan on coming back regularly”

“All day dim sum & Cantonese cuisine. 🥡🥢”

“Great place for dinner and drinks”

“This is such a lovely place with a warm, friendly ambience. I brought my son here on Christmas Eve, and we had a lovely time. The chocolate martinis are amazing and the wine list is very good. We started with perfectly chilled and delicious oysters and then enjoyed aranciata with crab and a lovely lobster pasta dish. The vibe is inviting for families with young children as well and there is also a nice bar for adults only. This is a great place that I will return to soon !”

“Delicious meal. Service spot on. We’ll be back.”

“A very nice place to check out if you’re into mediterranean cuisine! Excellent vegetarian options and delicious food. But if you’re someone who enjoys good service like me then this is not the place. after being sat down for 15 mins the server gave the menu. After reminding 3 times, we finally got water which was bottled and we were not told about I assumed they would bring tap water and on top of that they will randomly put 15% or 18% tip irrespective of party size. Waiting for menu for 15 mins and then waiting for water not sure what kind of service one is getting and to top it off getting the drinks ordered post meal! Again if you’re a foody then this a good place to try but not for the service.”

“lived in the 'boken in 90's and 2000's and this place was outstanding. I still make it a point to visit when I'm passign through town. Great to see it's still as aswesome as ever. cheers”

“Friendly service and great food…”

“I was in the area after a yoga session and decided to get a matcha afterwards. I usually go to Haraz, but wanted to try something new. I got the Levitea matcha and Jeffery was so helpful in explaining the different drinks on the menu and really attentive to the quality of my drink. I will definitely be coming back in the future to try other drinks for sure.”

“Pizza is absolutely sensational -- truly exceptional. Best I have ever had anywhere.”

“This was our first time trying this famous sandwich place. Thus, we were not sure what were the options. Unfortunately, they do not have a list of menu. However, they were very patient with us and told us what the special sandwiches of the day were. We got that day's special which was roastbeef. It was quite delicious. Next time, I would like to try a sandwich with bresaola (if they have).”

“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!”

“Wonder is my reliable go to for food while in town for work. They have a variety of choice and all the restaurants I tried have been good so far. Service is relatively fast (around 20 mins)”

“The best! Need her as my neighbor.. yummy best cookies and cakes �”

“Great food n environment rocks”

“Great food overall. The chicken biryani was the highlight! Full of flavor, well-cooked, and nicely balanced. The rogan josh was also really good, with tender meat and a rich, tasty gravy. Would definitely come back again!”

“This yakitori stand is truly amazing. The chicken skewers were cooked and served perfectly, and it’s such a comfort food on a freezing windy afternoon. We went to another renowned Michelin starred yakitori restaurant exactly a night before we had Erotori (this yakitori stand). The food we had here is comparable with or even better than the Michelin starred restaurant (with 1/10 of the price). This place is real. It has the real yakitori spirit just like how it’s started in Japan. Served from the street to the general public. No fancy stuff but truly delicious food. We love it.”

“Loved my iced mocha with Almond Milk today! The barista was friendly and great service. super cute little shop!”

“A local favorite for me! Food is always fresh, healthy, and delicious! Friendly and hard-working staff. I really enjoy the PB&J along with any of the smoothies. The specials are always refreshing to try too. Plenty of seating or you can grab and go. Definitely a 10/10 recommend!”

“Almost too hip of an atmosphere. Looks futuristic and like a hipster puked all over it but it’s still cute. I miss the old schnackenbergs! This place looks odd in old cute charming uptown Hoboken. It’s very Portland-esque. Good salad tho.”

“Best food truck in JC, clean and generous staff .”

“Came in to grab a coffee and do some work. Great environment for working/studying. It’s not too big but there’s a big table with lots of seating. The coffee was great and there were some bakery options if you want a quick bite as well!”

“Best gelato in the USA! Okay, I’m exaggerating but it feels like I’m transported back to Italy—same taste & vibes.

Even their coffee tastes strong, simple, and satisfying like in Italy.”

“I have been to this place every other day the past month, and countless times before that. The food is mouth watering, this is coming from someone who has been to more countries than holes on his body.

The staff are also very friendly and willing to accommodate reasonable requests! I love Pho Express!”

“We’ve been getting coffee here for years! Coffee is great at a bargain price for the area.
We love Jeff, his family, the staff. Staff is always smiling and it’s quick service. 10/10 recommend this solid neighbourhood gem. P.s love the takeout window :)”

“TL;DR: Mulligan’s is a top-tier soccer bar with professional staff, solid bar food, a pool table, and a strong selection of local and imported beers on tap.

Mulligan’s Pub is widely considered the premier destination in New Jersey for watching soccer. The establishment consistently opens early for Premier League kickoffs and maintains a dedicated environment for fans of various international leagues. The atmosphere is consistently high-energy without being overbearing, making it a reliable spot for both major tournaments and weekly league fixtures.

The service is efficient and the staff is professional, managing large match-day crowds with ease. Regarding the menu, the food is quality bar fare; the wings and burgers are dependable.

The layout includes a pool table in the back and dart boards, providing activity beyond the screens. Their draft list is well-balanced, featuring some local craft beers alongside standard European imports like Guinness. It is a straightforward, well-run Irish pub that prioritizes the viewing experience for supporters.”

“I would strongly recommend paying this place a visit. The food is great and the service is very fast.”

“Great pies! Huge selection.”

“Chill dessert place! We got the crepe with cookies and cream ice cream. Not to sweet, which is great. They also have a B1G1 promo for milk teas. Highly recommended!”

“I routinely visit the Vista to work remotely and deal with personal matters. It is a fantastic place to concentrate and get things done. I can rely on amazing and tailored service from the attendants and the owner. Strong coffee, delicious pastries and a hearty menu grace this spot. My double espresso is served in fine china, which makes me feel valued. Love this spot.”

“Stopped in for a beer (they did have one local beer on tap - which was excellent). It had a very old school neighborhood dive bar feel. The bartender was friendly, welcoming and helpful.”

“Took my husband here for his 64th birthday dinner on a recommendation and was not disappointed! This gem checked all the boxes in my book! We will definitely be coming back!! Thanks to the great bartender and the owners who went out of there way to make sure everything a that Carlos had an amazing experience!”

“Pie was delicious, service was exceptional, interior was beautiful, owner was awesome…AND it’s BYOB (with a liquor store no minutes away). Love Love Loved it.”

“Mutz is a soft, mild cheese. You'd be forgiven for thinking that it would struggle to stand up to roast beef, roast turkey, hot peppers, sweet peppers, and the soft loaf encasing them all in a piled-high deli sandwich.

This mutz shines through. The stories about this place? The Biancamano lore? All true. This old-school deli shows why they're an institution.”

“came in for lunch special. got the california chicken plate with pasta and sweet potato fries. came with a green juice and muffin. all totally delicious, and a decent price. would def come again”

“The owner of the deli is so kind and the chicken fajita sandwich he recommended was top notch! This is a great local establishment and is a regular stop for me anytime I'm nearby.”

“Totally a hidden Korean spot for their street food and mochi donuts! Limited seats so they majorly do delivery.
(The owner said they r famous for their Korean-style fried chicken, definitely visit again for that.)

?❤️‍??Donut was so chewy, soft, and flavored! I love my injeolmin flavor which was powdered soybean. Gentle taste, not too sweet. Highly recommended✨

❤️✨Original corn dog was totally delicious too. I got half mozzarella half hot dog to try both, the outside bread was chewy, crispy, melted with cheese part. Thus I preferred mozzarella part? crazy good.”

“I stopped in for a beer and greatly enjoyed myself. They did have a couple of local selections. The feel of the place was fun and inviting, and the bartender was friendly helpful and enjoyable to chat with - would definitely stop back again when in the area.”

“My favorite place in Hoboken! The owner is one of the kindest people I have ever met, and every delicious dish is made with love. Great coffee, omelettes and breakfast sandwiches! Cozy ambiance, good music and cool local artwork on the walls. Definitely give this place a try!”

“Fresh and unique. I recommend the Mexican street corn fries.”

“Great addition to the 5th Ward! Excellent service. Love the Chai Latte, the homemade marshmallows that top drinks for kids and adults are special, great gifts for babies and and a welcoming bright space in the location formerly occupied by Truglio’s. You have to check it out. Congratulations to Kristin and Catherine — the owners of this business — for creating a great community space that has already added so much to our neighborhood.”

“Great hang out for local Hoboken bourgeois dwellers . If you are a right wing political wako, you won’t be confortable . Best baristas in the NYC area and beyond Shout out to Jordan and his crew”

“Tastee Platters offers amazing service and scrumptious meals. They serve their dishes with care and genuinely value customer satisfaction. Shout out to Mo for taking care of us, he a real one 💯”

“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”

They had so many fresh made salsa and bottled hot sauce to put on my burrito. I think I found my new Mexican spot. Can't wait to try more of the menu. Highly recommend. 10/10”

“Had or best breakfast in USA here. Only a short walk from our hotel. Looks over the river to one of the best views of New York. The waitress (Casey) was lovely. Good coffee, breakfast combo was lovely with poached eggs and waffle.”

“Quality is better then food sold at most restaurants”

“It’s a very comfortable & warming place!”

“I was just at Carls bakery in Granite Falls Minnesota and they said your connected to them and he is your long lost relative and you guys use to bake together as kids. He said you gave him permission to use your likeness. If this is true I'm disgusted. Honestly Carl's or Carlos whatever you decide to brand yourselves as is disgusting. I use to love cake boss, but that will be a ****stained thought now knowing this is his brand, or at least "family" using his brand.”

“Doughnuts are super yummy! And the milkshakes are soooo good!”

“The ranch dressing with the bbq Pollo is absolutely incredible”

You can start with apps, choose from pizza or pasta as an entree. It is BYOB and that can make for a fun evening. They will accommodate to suit taste, we had someone that was sensitive to sodium, they adjusted sted the entree to suit. The place is small, the food tasty and seriously, the service is over the top.”

“Was visiting Hoboken and looking for a good lunch spot close to Steven's University and came across Karma Kafe. Reviews were good and there were lots of people who took the time to rave so figured give it a shot. As always, reviews don't lie and ended up having a great lunch on a Sunday afternoon. We were able to walk in without a reservation on a Sunday afternoon without an issue and we were lucky. Pretty sure for future visits, would lock in a reservation to be on the safe side. Upon being seated, a serving of Papadum (Thin & crispy lentil flat bread) was served with tasty accompaniments was the perfect start as we scoured the menu. We started with The Veggie Sampler which was compromised of a Veggie samosa ( Stuffed crispy triangle pastry stufffed with potatoes and peas), Veggie Pakoras (Crisp veggies lightly battered in a chick pea flour and seasoning mix) and a Veggie Tikkis (Lightly breaded veggie cutlets seasoned with herbs and spices, served with mango chutney.) The serving size was decent and realized if we ate everything on the plate than we would be full and would have no room for the main course. The appatizers were delicious and a great way to prepare for lunch. Indian Food is usually always a hit for us due to the large vegertain options that are available to her as well as the non vegetarian options for me. Plenty of great choices to pick from making the decision difficult. I ordered Chicken Vindaloo (Chicken and potatoes in a spicy vindaloo sauce) When ordering, the waiter ensured I was ready for the heat from spice ranking it a 10 of 10. Will admit I love hot foods, and was apprehensive with his warnings but pushed forward. While the food was definitely spicey, not sure if I would rank as a 10 of 10 being some Indian dishes have been insanely hot. All in all, the meal was delicious and I thoroughly enjoyed it. My daughter ordered the Paneer Kashmiri (Cheese cubes and veggies in a mild saffron korma sauce) and was thoroughly satisfied. Both entrees were served with Basmati Rice and Dal. While not needed , we also order Garlic Nan which was incredibly delicious. The Nan was even better when dipped in the savory sauces that our meal came in. As you can imagine, there was so much food that we both took some home that made for another meal. Overall, we were both super satisfied and left stuffed. Definitely a great location that we plan to return to. The location was perfect and was a short walk from Stevens. The food quality was good, the service was great, and I found the value to be exceptional for its location.”

“If your a lover of coffee and fresh premium quality food, Bluestone Lane has something special waiting for you. Next time your in Hoboken do yourself a favor and stop in for breakfast or brunch. You’ll be sure to find the right choice of specialty coffee and food options that suit your pallet.”

“Highly recommend this restaurant!”

“I was there at the end of the night. After a 12 hour shift, you'd think these guys would slow down or half ass the order they get? NOPE! they still served some of the best halal chicken over rice i have had in YEARS!!!”

“Delicious coffee and gelato. Lots of classic flavors. The cantucci are delicious and there is a large selection of classic Italian pastries like cornetto con pistacchio.”

“What a find! They use true Normandy butter from France 🇫🇷 for their croissants! Super tasty and delicious. The owner Meran showed me the amazing 500 square foot brick oven, that used to bake bread for Frank Sinatra back in the day. Love it! What an amazing old school throwback, still backing amazing bread today. I would call this a super recommendation!”

“Love this corner coffee shop, I usually get a cappuccino with half and half and it tastes amazing, the 12oz is just the right size, and espresso to milk portion is just right. I walk down from Union city because this is the best espresso. They have fun lattes , Persian flavors, like pistachio, turmeric, lavender. Fast, friendly service.”

“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!”

“Had to try this spot out. Picked up a hot pistachio latte with oat milk. It was absolutely delicious. This spot is a lot bigger than what I anticipated. Definitely need to try the saffron adeni next time I need a caffeine pick me up from shopping around SoHo.”

“Tried the marzipan latte which was very good. They also had a Horchata latte on the menu which seemed interesting. The staff is friendly and helpful. The cafe has a nice vibe with limited indoor and outdoor seating. It is also pet friendly! It did seem like a nice place to work out of but I did not notice a bathroom at this cafe so that’s something to keep in mind. Overall would recommend!”

“This place has quickly become Hoboken’s best cafe among so many here. Not only are the drinks perfectly balanced and delicious, the food is also of exceptional quality for a cafe. You can clearly tell there’s a professional chef in the kitchen working his magic / curating the menu. Mile Square Cafe is a true neighborhood gem you have to visit when in Hoboken!”

“Have open time late in the night, abundant seats, restroom is clean, good internet connection, good for people who want to do some study/work at a relaxing environment. Coffee is also good”

“Just tried Pure Green Juice Bar in Hoboken and I’m seriously impressed! 🥤🌿
Yesterday I did a juice cleanse for the first time in my life, and I got it from Pure Green. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and you can tell they use high-quality ingredients. The juices are vibrant and flavorful, and the staff was super friendly and welcoming. It’s the perfect spot if you’re looking for something healthy that actually tastes amazing.

The space itself is clean, bright, and has a great vibe for grabbing a quick drink or a post-workout boost. I’ll definitely be coming back to try more from the menu. Highly recommend if you’re in Hoboken and want a refreshing, feel-good treat! 💚”

“Really loved this experience, our server Val gave excellent recommendations the creativity in the drinks stood out all night. Music was on point between English and Spanish definitely a good vibe!”

“Almost too hip of an atmosphere. Looks futuristic and like a hipster puked all over it but it’s still cute. I miss the old schnackenbergs! This place looks odd in old cute charming uptown Hoboken. It’s very Portland-esque. Good salad tho.”

“A decent Italian spot in Hoboken but a little on the pricer side compared to the service you’re getting. My second time here and it did not disappoint. Good veggie options. Will recommend trying the ceasar salad, pasta rigatoni and the olive oil cake!”

“Blue Angel
79 Hudson St.
Hoboken, NJ 07030

Sweet Potato Slice Cake

This light, spongy cake had multiple layers of fresh cream. It was sprinkled with sweet potato pieces and topped with a round candy sweet potato.

It wasn't too sweet or overpowering, so you won't need any milk to wash it down.

“Hello! The food is insane. The biscuits are so decadent and huge. So soft, with a thin crunchy layer on the outside. I had two bites of the basic babe sandwich and I’m already full, which makes me very excited for left overs. Service and atmosphere was nice. However - it’s very small in there so it can feel cramped if there’s more than 3 people. The person providing service was very kind and a pleasure to speak to. Thank you Biscuit Babe!”

“Great food happily surprised Panner Butter Marsala and Naan was delicious and the Chicken Briyani did not disappoint. I ordered for pick up and everything was nicely packed.”
