Tapas Restaurants near Staten Island, NY

“Just go !! Wonderful place ! And the owner is…. Amazing !!“

“I love this place. They always have great and fresh food. My favorite has to be the vegetable ramen. It’s so delicious, their chicken wings are flavorful and guns texture is pretty good. I love their bubble tea as well. I order through Uber eats majority of the time, I wonder if I can directly order from this restaurant though. I think I’ll find that out. Today I ordered the matcha green tea bubble tea, usually I order the mango milk bubble tea. They must remember because Uber gave me a complimentary mango bubble tea. This place is highly recommended by me. 10 stars“

“Best food and margaritas!!“

“Veteran owned! I appreciate how law enforcement/ military friendly this cafe is- especially considering the location and the current political climate. How lovely it was to be somewhere that celebrated those who put their lives on the line to protect us.

The interior is much larger than it seems from the outside, with plenty of spaced apart tables for private conversations.

The menu was extremely affordable and surprisingly extensive for a local coffee shop (they have a kitchen in the back and everything is prepared fresh).

Only downfall is the difficulty to find parking and the little to no gluten free options. Please add gluten free bread or pastries!!“

“We’ve been to Violets on many occasions..it’s our go to place for great food and the staff are phenomenal! I highly recommend Violets and look forward to dining there again soon !“

“Wine was ok, but the cake...........................insane“

“this is the best bar an restaurant Katrina an Abby are the best bar tenders an the food is amazing.“

“I stay at the Canopy every time I come to Jersey City. Their food has always been amazing and yet they continue to dazzle with a new menu with the same cravings and yummy additions. I cannot thank the team at The Studio enough for always taking care of me and making me feel at home when away from home. Shoutout to Chef Claude for THE BEST mussels I’ve had in too long a time. Thank you chef for the extra garlic!!“

“In a world where chaos and mediocrity too often prevail, it is a rare and invigorating experience to encounter a pizzeria that stands as a beacon of order and excellence.

The decor is warm and unpretentious, the lighting soft yet deliberate—a space that invites you to sit, to breathe, to reconnect. It is not ostentatious, nor is it neglectful; it strikes that rare chord of intentional simplicity that calms the spirit and focuses the mind. Here, the act of eating transcends mere consumption and becomes a shared ritual, a moment of communion in an age too often defined by isolation

The staff, too, embody virtues that resonate deeply. They are attentive without hovering, competent without arrogance—each interaction a small but meaningful demonstration of responsibility and care.

This is no trivial thing; it reflects a commitment to the dignity of the individual, a principle that ripples outward from the kitchen to the plate.

And then there is the price—fair, reasonable, and reflective of the quality bestowed upon you. It is not a gouging demand, nor a cheap shortcut, but an honest exchange that honors both the effort of those who create and the patronage of those who partake. In a culture where value is often distorted by greed or undervalued by apathy, this pizzeria stands firm in its integrity, offering a meal that satisfies both body and soul without exploiting either, or compromising much of anything.

In sum, this pizzeria is more than a place to eat—it is a humble archetype of what humanity can achieve when we strive for excellence with purpose and pride. It is a sanctuary where the chaos of the everyday is held at bay, where the simple act of breaking bread becomes a celebration of life’s possibilities. I recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone who seeks not just a good pizza, but a taste of the transcendent in the ordinary.

While it is excellent, excellence is a virtue that must be maintained, I think this team is up for the task.

All in all Comet Pizza is my favorite thing since Russell Crowe screamed 'Are you not entertained?!' in the hit motion picture Gladiator back in 2000. I’d fight a tiger in the arena for their pepperoni pie.

It’s pretty good! Definitely will come back!!!“

“super small place oy about 6 tables plus a few bar seats. food is super expensive but we had Erin as our server and she was absolutely wonderful. can't say enough nice things about her. super friendly and very attentive to our needs. she made it a wonderful experience. food was not great, a little bit greasy and very overpriced. there's literally about 4 choices on the entire menu. Reuben sandwich with fries ($15) chicken tenders with fries($13) bowl of mac and cheese ($12) chicken wings (6 for $8) we weren't going to eat here but it is inside the hotel and we didn't want to drive anymore after a long road trip to get to the hotel. if it wasn't for Erin's awesome service then we would have walked out.“

“Great wine different flights to sample. You can even buy bottles“

“Spicy pepperoni lived up to its name and was very good. Our waiter was attentive at first then forgot about us. Sweet ice tea was carbonated and tasted like Sprite but waiter swore it was ice tea (I disagree that was tea). Extremely difficult to park in questionable area. Would not return.“

“Ginger chili wings are great. Pretty spicy with some sweetness. They only offer one type of wing and this is it. I can’t blame them for keeping it simple if what they got is great. On a separate note…Ordering is odd… no register. Just scan a QR code and wait… Tip is automatically included on bill and I don’t see a way to edit that. Good wings is all I really care about though.“
