We have just had a fantastic meal at South Lions. As a family of 4 from the UK staying for a week we have tried out a few places to eat in Hoboken and this was without a doubt the best from every aspect ….. price, taste, quality and service. We arrived about half an hour before they were due to close, but we weren’t rushed and the owner was warm and friendly, recommending different dishes and giving a 15% discount when we paid cash.

South Lion in Hoboken is an absolute gem! The food here is seriously delicious, and you can tell everything is made with care and fresh ingredients. My favorite has to be the pork soup dumplings they’re perfectly juicy and packed with flavor but honestly, every dish I’ve tried has been excellent. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the service makes the whole experience even better. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to again and again!
