This is a tiki bar, we liked the vibes and smoldering bastard cocktail.
In terms of food, avocado fried rice was good. Drunken noodle was good too but it was on the sweeter side. Same with korean fried chicken. Which is why we didn’t particularly enjoy the latter.
But this place makes for a cute date night spot!

Bartender was a pretentious hipster jerk, which ruins the atmosphere when you discover it.

Honestly pretty disappointed - I was looking forward to what pan Asian food was going to be like but not very creative, Asian or filling. The small portions for “large format” dish felt like a scam. Honestly the cheesy Hawaiian inspired aesthetics and not-so-great or asian dishes made sense when I looked up the owner

I was pretty disappointed to be honest. “Pan Asian” yet there was slim to no tasted of Asian influence. “Pan asian” yet it had a tacky Hawaiian tiki bar aesthetic throughout the decor and servers style. Service was lackluster.
Roasted Scottish Salmon: the soup base was Thai influence & that was the only good part of the dish. The salmon itself lacked flavor or any substance besides being food. Not to mention it was small and not filling for my partner.
Bao Down- Fried chicken: “Large Format” and the price made me think the dish would be filling, yet I was not filled. The taste was also tacky & cheap. Tasted like I could buy the sauces at stop and shop and make the dish at home.
We also got a virgin beverage which was good. Too much ice but good while it lasted.
I think the restaurant needs a rebrand. The vibe gives random white man that opened up a pan asian restaurant. If someone of asian decent or even Pacific Islander decent actually opened this… 😬

We made a reservation at 7:30 but waited for 25 minutes to get seated. Food was great and staffs were friendly. Just wish we didn’t have to wait when we already had reservation.

This place has a warm and cozy atmosphere, making it a great spot for a casual date night. The Grilled Chicken Satay came as four skewers of chicken breast, and while it was a bit dry on its own, the peanut sauce really brought it to life. The Korean-style wings stole the show—crispy, slightly sweet, and topped with sesame seeds for an extra pop of flavor.
While the food portions are on the smaller side, the quality and presentation make up for it. I also tried the Foam Dead Flowers IPA, which was light, subtly sweet, and a great pairing with the meal.
If you’re looking for a cozy spot with friendly service, good drinks, and flavorful bites, this is a solid choice—especially for a date night!

Except for the fact that there were a few service delays and timing issues , the food was excellent. This is a very popular restaurant so depending on the time you attend expect to have a bit of wait for service. Other than that I would recommend this restaurant for a sumptuous twist on your traditional dishes.

Really great atmosphere with solid drinks and delicious food. Highly recommend the short rib bao and shrimp and garlic. Service was a bit slow but it wouldn't stop us from coming back.
They literally do not answer the phone. I’m confused I called to verify if they were open 3 times yesterday and now twice today with no answer. Horrible customer service

Reservations was quick and easy , a card on file is a must. It’s $10 pp to reserve. Food was delicious, service was good. It only took a while to get the bill but they was busy for dinner rush. The shrimp pad Thai was yummy, i wish it had more shrimp but the flavor was there. Always get the edamame , that’s an easy 10/10.
Overall the experience was amazing. The food was out of this world, everything was seasoned and cooked to perfection (and I mean this very literally). Service was amazing as well, definitely will be adding this to my regular rotation of restaurants.

I was so excited to visit Cellar 335 again as the last time I visited was years ago, and I mean years! I made a reservation for Thursday evening, and it wasn’t too crowded, it was perfect.
My friend and I started off with our drinks which I really wish I remembered the names of. I believe it was Lost at Sea and Saturn. The drinks were worth it, they come well presented and pack a punch! Since we were really hungry, we decided to order the large-format bao bun meal which is meant for more than one person (LOL) but we figured we could take some home. I ordered the crispy tofu and my friend ordered the fried chicken. IT WAS DELICIOUS! We even have some to take home too because I had to have my sister try it. Our waiter was super attentive and answered any questions we had.
The ambience is beautiful, it’s dimly lit and I love the decor. The bar area is gorgeous. Sometimes they even have specials on the weekdays. Cellar 335 is definitely a Jersey City gem. Make sure you make a reservation and check them out!
P.S. parking sucks, it’s Jersey City so if you’re driving, make sure you leave enough time to find parking!
