10 Best Wine Bars in Jersey City

“Wow! Had an outstanding night at the Roxy and I think it’s been my best bite in JC.

Service was incredible, friendly, and attentive. We did go at an off peak time, so we got extra special service. However, I think at any time the service would be top notch.

The cocktails were excellent. Extremely balanced, delicious and amazingly seasonal.

The food was soooo good. I had the short rib special and I highly recommend it while it’s available. Absolutely delicious and the best short rib dish I’ve had.

I can’t wait to return!“

“I've been here a few times now, and overall, I really like it.

Apps are good. I've had the labneh and hummus. The only complaint is that the portion is a little small. the pita, in particular, is not enough for the amount of dip on the plate.

I've also had the charred cabbage, and it was not for me. Not particularly bad, I did finish it, though aside from the charred exterior, it was basically completely raw. I wasn't expecting fully cooked, soft cabbage, but a slightly lower heat would still get a good char on the outside while at least slightly softening the inside of this large wedge of cabbage. The sauce that was drizzled on top was quite spicy and good.

The corn ribs were definitely the superior small dish compared to the cabbage, although I do think the portion is too small. I could eat roughly 500 of those little things.

I don't see it on the menu anymore, but on my first trip there, I had a fried calamari and "chorizo" sandwich. There was a slaw on there that was very tasty, and the calamari itself was cooked well and was nice and crunchy. Hated the chorizo. It tasted like a cheap Jimmy Dean frozen breakfast patty. Never had a chorizo that tasted like that in my life. I picked it off and ate the sandwich without it.

Also had the pappardelle. No complaints. Delicious. Cleaned that plate in like 5 minutes. Although once again, especially for pasta, the portion was quite small.

Lastly, for my drink, I had the Nico's Song mocktail. In my opinion, it is completely undrinkable. Even though ginger is listed as the 3rd ingredient following both beet and orange juice, it was the only thing i could taste. Way too heavy on the ginger. The server definitely saw that i had barely touched the drink but didn't ask me if I liked it. I did end up just asking her if this drink was always this gingery; she mostly ignored the question, although she was kind enough to take it off the bill.

The atmosphere here is really great & the pride flags hanging like a cute little halo over the bar makes me feel good about bringing my parter here and spending money at this business. Music is a little loud but tasteful and the table arrangement/decor is really nice. Although the last time I was here, there was a table with kids all with their shoes off & their feet on the tables.

There a lot of restaurants in JC to compete with, but I still see myself coming back here every now and again.“

“The food is delicious and Mihai is the best waiter!“

“This place pure vibes. From the meticulously crafted and delicious cocktails to the breath taking decor and the absolutely amazing and friendly staff. Everyone you interact with will make you feel like a VIP while you're there. The music on the weekends is also perfect for dancing but Th and S give you an opportunity to chat with the staff and it feels really intimate. Perfect spot for a date night and even better spot to fall in love ?. Thank you Under the Boot for always bringing magic to my weekends.Entrance is right next to Boots and Bones on the left side. You'll see a neon sign above a stairway leading to the basement. Hope to see you soon ?“

“Service was impeccable-always had someone nearby if we needed something but not hovering. Food was delicious. We had the duck croquettes, Brussels sprouts, and bolognese pasta. The croquettes were our favorite but the sprouts and pasta were amazing too. Excited to go back for brunch sometime!“

“This place is so romatic and the staff and food are great. We left happy and ready to return soon.“

“Such amazing and warmhearted people, I love how I was craving for my usual breakfast sandwich for an amazing price and I couldn’t find one nearby the Exchange Place area, till I caught my eye on a little food truck stand… I will definitely come back and support this local/small business. Well deserved for these kind people.“

“Have enjoyed two fantastic meals at Ita. A perfect atmosphere for any intimate or casual gathering. The food is so fresh and the people are warm and welcoming. I will be back!!“

“We stayed at the hotel for one night since we had a dinner party across the street on Saturday. It was just a nice, calm place to have breakfast since there wasn't much open right there on Sunday morning. The staff was very friendly. I had scrambled eggs with applewood smoked bacon, potatoes and toast, and my husband had the breakfast burrito, which came with fresh fruit.“

“Great food, great atmosphere and great service.. I’m coming back and bringing friends and family! I definitely recommend it!“
