50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Hoboken

“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 !“

“Never disappointed when we eat here. My boys and I will try something different every time we come but my husband loves the Garlic and Oil Pasta and he gets it every time.(No protein added since he says it spoils it.) I do believe his heart would be broken 💔if it ever comes off of the menu.“

“The lobster roll from Angelo Seafood Market is absolutely fantastic! The lobster meat is fresh, tender, and generously portioned—sweet and perfectly cooked with that signature ocean-fresh flavor. It’s lightly dressed, allowing the natural richness of the lobster to shine through without being overpowered by mayo or seasoning. The roll itself is buttery, toasted just right, and adds the perfect crunch to every bite.

Everything tastes incredibly fresh, and you can tell this place takes real pride in their seafood. It’s a true hidden gem for anyone who loves authentic, no-frills, high-quality lobster rolls. Highly recommend stopping by for one—you won’t be disappointed! 🦞“

“Great pizza, service was excellent.“

“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 views of NYC and beautiful decor inside Halifax! From a cool bar with creative cocktails to a dining room where the food and service is top notch! Beautiful outside dining is also available in warmer months . Stay over at the W and go for their Brunch!! best brunch in Hoboken!“

“Excellent service great ambiance and excellent food!“

“This establishment is everything! From the time I entered the service was impeccable. I had the seared Bass w/Copolini and the Crab Spring Rolls. 5 stars, a must when in NYC.“

“Briken was great! I order a chocolate martini and it was very good. He was kind and attentive even when opened my wallet and change fell out. He was quick to help pick it up. I finished the night dipping my complementary potato chips that are house made in my chocolate martini“

“Great time with my family for lunch, great food and great atmosphere but our waitress Abby gets the 5 Stars for service (Awesome Abby 🤩)“

“5/27/2026
Sometimes all a girl wants is some oysters! I’ve been eyeing this place for awhile when visiting the city and finally took a chance to go. Very classy inside with a nice bar off to the left. I did one of each oyster and they were every bit worth the price briny, meaty and ohh so good. I really enjoyed just myself, my oysters and a little happy dance after each bite. If you like fresh and quality look no further this is the spot. I was able to walk in, get a table and get down to business.“

“Creative fun dishes and bev list.“

“Very Fresh and amazing service and atmosphere.“

“Great experience everything was perfect 😍“

“We lived in nyc for 30 years. Recently moved to DE. God only knows how much we miss the nyc culture. Nothing holds a candle to it. Thank you Aaron for such a delightful lunch today at your restaurant. Best Manhattan I’ve had in a long long time! You were so attentive and accommodating. Service the best! Thank the kitchen for the great food also! Will be back soon with our nephew and his spouse!“

“Nice atmosphere, very professional and friendly staff. Best caviar and great gourmet food selections.“

“The cocktail selection is phenomenal, it’s balanced and delicious, even the people sat next to us agreed! My favorite dish is probably stuffed farfalle with snow crab. It’s creamy and just the right amount of crab, flour and sauce to balance each bite! You’ll be amazed!! Another go to is definitely steak. It’s lightly fried on the outside but juicy inside which is not overly oily, spicy crunch on top adds an Asian style kick. A gem place for sure!!💕“

“Had a lovely meal to celebrate my 50th birthday, the food was so good and the service was fantastic, I would highly recommend“

“Most amazing seafood. Go for happy hour. Get all the oysters. The lobster pasta made my husband weak in the knees. He won't stop talking about the olive brine Bloody Mary. THE BEST.“

“Food and service was excellent. Service was out of this world. Can't wait to go again“

“Overall, a good meal with a few highlights and a few misses

The standout for me was the buckwheat ice cream. I expected a rough, grainy texture, but it was surprisingly smooth with a subtle buckwheat aroma. The sweetness was very restrained and only became noticeable after a few bites, which made it especially enjoyable. The mushroom rice was another favorite. The seasoning was spot on and brought out the natural flavor of the mushrooms. The combination of green onions and mushrooms also looked beautiful on the plate. The fried chicken was solid as well, tender and well cooked

The beef patty was fairly average and didn’t leave much of an impression. The vegetable tempura, unfortunately, was the weakest dish of the meal. The batter was uneven, and there seemed to be too much residual oil, making it feel quite heavy

The seating arrangement was the other downside. We were seated in a corner where 3 tables had been placed in a relatively small area, which felt a bit cramped. The experience would probably be much more enjoyable in one of the more open seating areas

Overall, some dishes were excellent, some were less memorable, but the buckwheat ice cream alone was worth trying.“

“For us, the food was hit or miss. Right from the start, the Sardine toast was the star of the night, then there was aRazor clam special, which was 50/50... the clams were great, but we didn't prefer the melon taste to the dressing. After that, we had the mortadella and sourdough. Both were very good. Ate that we had the snap pea salad and the mitake mushrooms with garlic fudge. Again, both were excellent. It was the mains that just fell apart for us. The bucatini had slices of squash on top that were dry, and a bit too much basil, which overpowered the dish. Other than the basil, it was lacking in flavor. The other main was the hake and risotto. While the risotto was heavily citrussed, almost too much so, it was still tasty, but the fish, again, lacked flavor/ seasoning/ salt. Overall, the meal was a 3.5, but we bumped it to a 4, because worth the omission of the mains, it could have been a 4.5-5.“

“Food was good and very fresh.“

“They just revamped their menu and I’m all here for it! My favorites were the rice noodle rolls wrapped with tofu, bean sprouts, bamboo shoots, shiitake mushrooms, carrots and preserved radish, Thai beef stew and the Panang short ribs. The beef stew was SO tender and collagen rich, literally every bite was melt in your mouth. Short ribs, also as expected, tender and flavorful. The Thai ice cream was a perfect finish - sweet toppings, cold coconut ice cream, warm pandan sticky rice - all different flavors and textures but all work together in harmony.“

“Lovey fine dining experience with my fiancé. We love coming here when we travel to NYC!“

“Great happy hour ($13 for 6 oysters and a beer, option for a small upcharge for wine instead) and rotates which oysters are available for the deal. All appetizers were also great and I’d heartily recommend the marlin crudo! Everything was delicious and the staff was efficient and offered insight into differences/preferences. Would absolutely return!“

“Beautifully prepared delicious food!!“

“dog friendly and the food is very good“

“Nice food and great place to dine in“

“Super fresh food and top quality service. Thank you.“

“Atmosphere, amazing! Food, top! Jeffrey, BRAVISSIMO!“

“I don't throw this around often, but this was easily one of the best tasting menus I've ever had!!! I’m not even gassing it. Flawless, no misses, no notes! Every course was creative, beautifully executed and packed with flavor combinations I never would've imagined.

Tucked in the back is an intimate chef's counter serving a seven-course tasting menu. Watching the chefs work right in front of you while every course is personally introduced makes the entire dinner feel like a story unfolding course by course. Some of my favs: The Lox, Chicken Wing, Pork Collar + Olive Oil Cake.

If you're looking for your next special occasion dinner or you're just a foodie who appreciates an unforgettable meal add this one to your list. Trust me!!“

“service and food was amazing“

“Kann ich nur empfehlen, in Service, Preis und Geschmack nahezu unschlagbar! Seiten so gut in NYC gegessen, sei es Seafood oder auch Anderes. Bei uns waren es: Appetizer: Spanish Octopus Entrée: Bone-In NY Strip Dessert: NY Cheesecake P.s.: Es gibt auch vegetarische Gerichte.“

“Too bad there aren’t more stars to click on. As a Sicilian/Italian every time I go to an Italian restaurant I have to always settle for the close enough. Not this time at Piccola Cucina Estiatorio, 71 Thompson Street NYC. After seeing their extremely authentic Sicilian menu online I knew that it had to be the real thing. After easily reserving a table online we showed up with yes our hopes being very high. For the first time the food was everything I had hoped for. 1. Arancini: nicely crunchy and flavored. Not oily or old at all. 2. Grilled veggies: although simply presented they were really tasty and fresh. 3. Involtini: out of this world. Exactly made like in my town in Sicily. A Moist, tender, flavored with some really tasty mozzarella cheese, served on a nice bed of caponata. 4. Maccheroni alla Norma: finally my very favorite dish. I almost cried. Besides a fantastic pasta, rigorously cooked al dente, there was a more than generous amount of diced eggplant, obviously, with basil leaves, olive oil and everything the Mediterranean has so generously given to Sicily for thousands of years. It’s worth mentioning the more than welcome grated “ricotta salata” as a testimony to the high attention to detail of Chef Gioele. That was a dinner I will not easily forget. The last thing I want to say is that, according to the highly professional and attentive staff, almost every single ingredient in this restaurant is flown directly from Sicily including the very tasty cannoli filled with ricotta cheese. (The cheese flies frozen during shipping). Sorry for the long review. I only wanted to show my super happiness with this restaurant. ANGELO.“

“Highly recommended. Very good food.“

“"Outstanding food and presentation. The service was fantastic, especially from the hostess“

“Loved this place!!! Highly recommended!!!!“

“Wow!!! Very impressive, everything fresh, delicious & huge servings.

“My brutal procrastination finally caught up with me, so I’m only now getting around to posting something I should’ve written at the start of the year.

This is where we had our New Year's Eve dinner on Dec 31, 2025. The total came to nearly 3,000 USD for three people, which included three tasting menus, a pretty nice bottle of wine, an extra order of Hokkaido uni, which was absolutely delicious, and the tip.

The restaurant is tucked inside a supermarket, which was kind of interesting. The atmosphere and setting were pretty good, with an open kitchen, and the staff were polite as well.

As for the food, I’d say it was decent but nothing that special. The overall quality was fine, but it felt overly fussy and trying too hard. Flavor wise, it didn’t go for that clean, natural kind of profile. It leaned heavier and more muddled instead. Most of the dishes were a bit too rich and greasy for me, which just isn’t my thing. To be honest, the two Michelin stars felt a little overrated.

One other thing that annoyed me, and this is different from most other restaurants, was that the deposit you pay doesn’t get deducted automatically from the final bill. They charge you the full amount first, then refund the deposit about a week later. Since I used a Canadian credit card and the exchange rate was swinging pretty hard around New Year’s, I ended up losing a bit of money for no good reason.

So overall, it wasn’t a particularly enjoyable experience, though I wouldn’t say it was terrible either.

That’s about it. 😍😍😍“
