Corto 507 Palisade Ave, Jersey City Italian • $$

“BYOB Baby! In addition to that everything was fantastic. Chuck was our server and he was fantastic. The chef told us about the peppers in olive oil we could buy as well as an almond spread. The rigatoni had a wonderful sweetness as well as quite a kick in the spice level. The dill salad had great light flavors. The pork was seasoned so nicely and they really let it speak for itself without too much salt or a heavy, overpowering amount of spices. The olive oil cake was delightful and lovely with a hint of citrus. Everything was beautifully done, it was a quiet evening in a fantastic place. Great for a date or your family. We found a parking lot about a 5 minute walk away.”

“Wonderful service. Very attentive waitresses and waiters. The oysters in the half shell, and the octopus were fabulous, as was the ox tail!We also got some very delicious dessert :)I love how it has the theme of being a “hole-in-the-wall” type of place where there is a low-key/secret entrance through the pizza place called VB3.There is a dress code, but it’s not too strict or too fancy. But just right for the atmosphere.They played ‘happenin’ music … lol. Idk why my word is ‘happenin’, but you get the point! They also have live DJ after a certain time (I think 9 PM)It was dimly lit and comfortable. There are chairs and booths. It’s handicap accessible as well which is a plus in my book!!!Also, the owner is quite a swell guy!!! I highly recommend coming here on many occasions; whether it’s a small party, a casual night out, a date night, or if you’re just spending time with friends/family, it’s a cool spot for it all . What a great experience I had !Oh, and they offered hookah too if you’re interested!9/10 is my recommendation!!!Wheelchair accessibility: Extremely accessible for power wheelchairs, manual wheelchairs and for anyone who has difficulty walking. No steps or ramps to maneuver or deal with. Bathroom is also accessible. The entire floor is spacious enough to not get around & one continuous walk way. Plenty of room & an excellent staff to help with any needs.”

I was very jealous of my dates choice of the roast chicken, but I couldn’t complain about the fish tacos at all, aside from the tough corn tortilla that probably needed a minute to steam more.

My top dishes and gotos after trying a solid portion of the food here over the years includes: chicken/fish maw soup (or Buddha's temptation soup, this tastes like the former with seafood), egg yolk prawn, lotus root with sticky rice, braised meatballs, and the yogurt and fruit dessert. The duck here is also great, if you like it on the sweeter side.DO NOT sleep on the drinks here!!

Left Bank Burger Bar 194 Newark Ave, Jersey City Hamburger • $$

“I love this place. It's a local burger shop with a full bar and unique (usually over-the-top) burger specials. I love that you can customize your burger, and they also have amazing seasoned fries. The price is great, and the service is quick. It's never too packed, and it's a great meal. Every time I am in the mood for a burger and a beer, I only head to Left Bank. The ambiance is cozy and they usually place some good music and sports.”

Marsha’s Taste of Caribbean 800 Communipaw Ave, Jersey City Caribbean • $$

“Hopefully rabid mobs won't do a "French Laundry" attack on my hypocrisy for sometimes avoiding places that have 3 stars yet saying the consensus is wrong on Masha & Harry's. (Minor annoying note - if you type in Taste of the Caribbean, its formal name on Uber Eats, Yelp search doesn't show it...which will be my excuse when defending the subpar page views of this post). The chicken curry from a previous order was good, maybe not better than Flatbush but I haven't been to Flatbush in forever. The revelation was today's order of doubles and bake and salt fish. For the doubles, you'll want to check the boxes for the pepper and tamarind sauces. One negative review complains about the amount of salt fish in the bake. I thought this was a brilliant sandwich. The cabbage and other vegetable items indeed have more surface area but everything was in harmony. I'll remind you that Hannibal Lecter was only in The Silence Of The Lambs for 16 minutes.”

Rustique Pizza 611 Jersey Ave, Jersey City Pizza • $

“I always thought of this place primarily in terms of takeout but I had my daughter's first birthday there a couple of weeks ago and would be remiss not to share what a wonderful experience it was on all fronts. First of all, as other reviewers have noted the food is incredible. Every single person in our party raved about their meals--mostly pizza orders, but I had a hot sub and I could not devour it fast enough, it was so delicious. Quality ingredients and really authentic preparation. Beyond the great food though I want to highlight what a lovely experience we had at the establishment. The restaurant was so accommodating to our needs--they let us bring in our own decorations and cake, even let me come in early to set up, and it really made the day feel special and personal. Unlike most other places, they also let us relax and enjoy ourselves. We lingered for a while and at no point did they make us feel like we needed to wrap it up and leave. As the mother of the birthday girl it really meant a lot to me, and I don't think I would have gotten that experience anywhere else. Finally, I'd like to compliment the staff who took such good care of us--they were professional and friendly and continuously offered to help with whatever we needed. We were a party of 21 including four little kids so I'm sure at points we were a lot to take! But all we received from the staff were pleasantries and smiles. I'd recommend to anyone not just making this your go-to pizza place for takeout, but thinking of them for your next gathering as well. Or a meal out, it's not a frilly sceney place but it's got a cozy, homey feel that's perfect for intimate conversation and catching up. Thank you Rustique for making my daughter's birthday so special.”

Amelia's Bistro 187 Warren St, Jersey City Bistros • $$

“We reserved the private room on the lower level for a family reunion for 27 people. The restaurant was centrally located for our families in Westchester, Long Island, and Philadelphia. The kitchen and staff were amazingly friendly and the food outstanding. The price-fixed Saturday brunch menu was tailored to our Gluten-free, Vegan and vegetarian’s needs. The service staff were warm and friendly and delivered our food quickly and accurately. The bar (shout-out to Jr.) served excellent cocktails at a reasonable price. Alexa S., the manager, was very helpful answering all our questions organizing the day and was very attentive during our gathering. We all enjoyed the day and highly recommend Amelia's Bistro and will definitely return for other family events.”
