“Let me be blunt. This Italian restaurant is not a typical one that blue collared people visit. It's for the sophisticated ones. The food is served in small bowls that you can share. It's a different experience that you can try. Interesting is what I can say! By the way, this is a BYOB place.”

“This small-footprint gem delivers exactly what so many of us miss back home: quality, chatpata quick bites like spicy-tangy pani puri (with live assembly and multiple flavor options—sweet, savory, and everything in between), the iconic Mumbai vada pav layered with coriander chutney, tamarind, and that punchy dry garlic chutney (ek dam mast!), misal pav, ragda samosa, dabeli, grilled sandwiches, paneer tikka rolls, and more—all pure veg and bursting with genuine flavors.

What really sets it apart is the warm, welcoming vibe—the pleasant service and friendly owner make you feel right at home, unlike some other places around that feel rushed or impersonal. It’s cozy and fun, with that true street-food energy packed into a compact space, perfect for a quick bite or takeout when you’re in Journal Square/India Street area.

If you’re missing the real deal till your next trip to India, skip the average options and head here. Places like Desi Adda keep the quality high, the tastes authentic, and the desi spirit alive—definitely worth appreciating and coming back to again and again. Highly recommend for anyone chasing that homesick cure!”

“The food we ordered from Casa Cubana for the surprise 50th Birthday party we hosted was a HIT! Everyone told us the food was delicious. They even provided serving utensils. We had black rice with beans (Moro), pork shoulder (Pernil), chicken and steak skewers, garlic shrimp, chicken and beef empanadas and sweet plantains. And yes, all of it was mouthwatering good. I was sold when I went for a quote and was given a chicken empanada to sample. So juicy! I highly recommend them for your next event, lunch or dinner. The cafe they have is lovely and the customer service is 10/10. You won’t be disappointed.”

“I had eaten food from Stella's before and was please with the food I purchased. However I was extremely impressed withy current order. I ordered a slice of pizza and fettuccini Alfredo. YUM I KNOW!
The pizza was typical yet the taste was amazing. I am not sure if the shell is made fresh or frozen, but when fresh or frozen, they have made a good choice.

The fettuccini Alfredo was just as good!

The only issue I have is that when you call there to ask to see if they a certain item the woman who answers the calls does not answer kindly but gets annoyed and hands up.

Otherwise, good job Stells and the chefs that make this place wonderful.”

“I had the most phenomenal dining experience at Kings Pride, a Nigerian restaurant in Jersey City. The exceptional customer service by the owner, Veronica, truly made it stand out. Veronica went above and beyond to bring the essence of Nigerian cuisine to our table, even taking us behind the scenes to demonstrate the traditional preparation of the dishes. Her passion for sharing the culture and flavors of Nigeria was truly inspiring. The Jollof rice with stewed goat was an absolute standout, bursting with rich, aromatic flavors that left a lasting impression. The Ogbono soup was a true staple of Nigerian cuisine and paired perfectly with a side of fufu. The classic homemade Zobo drink was a refreshing and delightful complement to the meal. Veronica's warm hospitality and her dedication to showcasing the authenticity and rich cultural heritage of Nigerian cuisine made our experience truly memorable. Kings Pride is more than just a restaurant; it's a place that brings people together through the love for great food and the celebration of Nigerian traditions. I highly recommend Kings Pride as a must-visit for anyone seeking an authentic and enriching culinary experience. Veronica's commitment to preserving and sharing the intricacies of Nigerian cuisine deserves the utmost support to keep this remarkable restaurant thriving.”

“I just wanted to give our waiter VINCENT !!! The biggest applause !!! Within the first few minutes on approach the expectations were defenitley met... Only downside of the experience was such a small menu usually people expect big plates. The portion sizes were honestly perfect to split between one other person if not just to have for yourself. My boyfriend and I had the Porter house 40oz cooked medium that was a Valentine's Day special and it came with this amazing Block of 1000 layer potato and it was probably one of the best french Frye ... I've ever had lol! They had an amazing wine selection for such a good price for being so close to the city !!! Most expensive bottle was probably $120 most of them average between 65 to 72$ . We also ordered the scallops. The oysters were a little bit warm upon arrival which was a disappointment because that's what was the main reason why we came there for but we were definitely enlightened to have our taste buds experienced to other varieties of the menu and the escargot which is an old Italian recipe which not many restaurants know how to make or prepare but the fried wontons we had absolutely delicious with the sauce they had at the bottom of the plate. It was like the perfect bean and nutty texture. Good job guys !”

The kind that says you matter and makes you feel you're blessed.

As soon as we got in they greet us with smiles and good tea. That's why we needed after a good night. Real soup is to the body what peace is to the soul. Soup is a symphony of flavors dancing on your tongue.

“This place is busy, but worth the wait! The menu system is online and looks really clunky, but with the help of Google review photos I settled on the pan fried noodles and braised pork hock (which is highly recommended). The pork comes in a dark, rich savory sauce (they mentioned after it can also come in a garlic Sichuan that is sweeter). The noodles were fresh, with soft scramble eggs and a tang I couldn’t identify. Very good. And the pork literally fell off the bone and the skin was unctuous and filled with collagen and flavor. Would’ve loved some soy sauce at the table, but all in all staff is friendly, the space is airy, and the food is insanely good.”

“This small-footprint gem delivers exactly what so many of us miss back home: quality, chatpata quick bites like spicy-tangy pani puri (with live assembly and multiple flavor options—sweet, savory, and everything in between), the iconic Mumbai vada pav layered with coriander chutney, tamarind, and that punchy dry garlic chutney (ek dam mast!), misal pav, ragda samosa, dabeli, grilled sandwiches, paneer tikka rolls, and more—all pure veg and bursting with genuine flavors.

What really sets it apart is the warm, welcoming vibe—the pleasant service and friendly owner make you feel right at home, unlike some other places around that feel rushed or impersonal. It’s cozy and fun, with that true street-food energy packed into a compact space, perfect for a quick bite or takeout when you’re in Journal Square/India Street area.

If you’re missing the real deal till your next trip to India, skip the average options and head here. Places like Desi Adda keep the quality high, the tastes authentic, and the desi spirit alive—definitely worth appreciating and coming back to again and again. Highly recommend for anyone chasing that homesick cure!”

“Meryendang Pinoy JC is truly one of the most exceptional Filipino street foods, a testament to the owners' kindness and generosity. Their tireless efforts to build this dream have paid off, and it's incredible to see their vision take shape in their own business establishment. I still marvel at how far they've come since 2020, when I first messaged them to order food from their humble home setup. Fast forward to 2024, and they've officially opened their business doors. Now, you can drop by anytime or conveniently order online - it's still an outstanding experience. They're growing steadily, bringing the flavors of the Philippines closer to our hearts, and making us feel like we're back in the Philippines 🇵🇭 🇵🇭🇵🇭 1000/10💛💙 Wishing You All The Best and More Blessings To Come Meryendang Pinoy JC💛💙🙏”

Mariscos el submarino 103 Christopher Columbus Dr, Jersey City Mexican • $$

“Very good tacos at a very fair price. These are probably some of the best seafood tacos I’ve ever had, even better than once I’ve had in California or Mexico. The large shrimp with cheese taco is by far my favorite, the ceviche is also good, and the restaurant itself is always packed with a lot of energy. I’ve ate in there in person, I’ve only ever picked up food, which is very efficient with them and fairly quick.”

Yuan 537 Washington Blvd, Jersey City Chinese • $$

“This place is busy, but worth the wait! The menu system is online and looks really clunky, but with the help of Google review photos I settled on the pan fried noodles and braised pork hock (which is highly recommended). The pork comes in a dark, rich savory sauce (they mentioned after it can also come in a garlic Sichuan that is sweeter). The noodles were fresh, with soft scramble eggs and a tang I couldn’t identify. Very good. And the pork literally fell off the bone and the skin was unctuous and filled with collagen and flavor. Would’ve loved some soy sauce at the table, but all in all staff is friendly, the space is airy, and the food is insanely good.”

Overall, the food was delicious with reasonable prices and generous portions. Our favorite was the flavorful, juicy burger with perfectly balanced ingredients. The fried cod in the fish tacos was also crispy and satisfying.”
