Coffee is actually pretty great, you can taste the espresso. Nothing like the watered down coffee some other places sell. I would recommend for a good cup here. read more

Alessio's is absolutely delicious pizzeria and Italian bakery. Their pizza is cheesy, crunchy crust and tangy sauce. Their cannolis were ok I felt they needed some chocolate chips in the cream. I loved their eclairs. I would go back for those!!! Overall a great hidden gem in Hoboken. read more

4.5 stars I had been hearing rave reviews about Alessio's Cafe for years! From the pastries to the sandwiches and beyond, the praise was vast, so I was thrilled to finally stop at the casual, deli-style spot recently. I did not grab much, but my Iced Coffee was rich, bold, and really delicious. It was not your typical, watered down cold brew by any means. I also tried a few of their treats, though I was sad to see that they were already out of their rainbow cookies, a personal favorite. But, one taste of their Brownie, and I forgot all about the rainbow cookies. The rich, buttery block of fudge-like decadence was heavenly and had a thick upper layer that seemed to be a ganache or frosting. I also tried a Sprinkle Butter Cookie, an Italian bakery staple. It had the typical hint of vanilla, but was much softer than the crunchy version to which I was accustom. It was still tasty, but no where near as alluring as the brownie. The staff was a pleasure to chat with and my requested items were similarly enjoyable, so I will definitely need to go back and try more of their menu items, specifically some sandwiches and other savory bites. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Cute spot! Local neighborhood feel and great quality.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Picked up to-go and tried 2 sandwiches and pizza. Everything tasted fresh and hot! Would recommend and want to try other items. They also opened a market across the street and look forward to checking it out! read more

Do NOT, I repeat DO NOT get the chicken caesar wrap. Wrap was loose, dressing stunk, there was barely any cheese, no croutons, and the chicken was chewy and tasted like rubber. Every component was a complete miss. It's a shame because I've had great food from Alessio's, and I've had bad food from Alessio's. The Prosciutto Supreme sandwich a few weeks ago was one of the best sandwiches I've ever had. Phenomenal. I guess stick to the paninis? At least stay away from the wraps and anything with that disgusting chicken. This spot as a whole probably deserves like 3 or 4 stars, but I'm really upset that my dinner tonight was wasted. read more

This is a great place to ordering catering from. The entire ordering experience was seamless and you can do everything online which makes it quick and easy. If you need to call with any questions everyone on the phone is super responsive too. The catering menu is massive - sandwiches, pastas, apps, heroes, salads and so much more. I went with an assorted wrap tray and an assorted sandwich tray. Both came with a really great variety and everything tasted fantastic. The only thing I don't love is that they don't give specifics on what's included. It's just an 'assortment' which got a little tricky for those in the group with dietary restrictions. Delivery was prompt and they even included plates, utensils and napkins. If you are looking for solid catering in Hoboken then definitely check out Alessio's. read more

It pains me to write this because I was this restaurant's biggest fan when it first opened years ago in Hoboken. In recent years the quality of the food has not only been inconsistent but gradually declined despite rising prices. It's evident that after the owners began opening more locations they switched to lower grade meat. Once the Terrace opened their cheesesteak never tasted the same which was the first sign. More recently I received two poor quality orders in a row including DISCOLORED eggs and a "chicken" cutlet sandwich that barely had a shaving of meat inside of it. It was practically a glorified grilled cheese. I hung on for so long hoping it would spring back but the decline has been progressive. Quality food and ingredients will always keep your customers loyal - a word of advice. read more

One of the best chicken Caesar wraps out there--crispy or grilled, you can't go wrong. Fries are on point, and the Italian empanadas (pizza + empanada + grilled chicken) are a flavor bomb. They also offer free WiFi, awesome coffee drinks and delish pastries!

Ordered the Pesto Pasta + Grilled Chicken online. Website had the option to customize the pasta style, I chose Rigatoni but was delivered Linguine instead. Presentation wise not the best. Chicken was tossed in with my pasta, some chicken pieces warm and others ice cold and I had to dig to find the chicken pieces. Flavor is good and portion size is great. Sandwiches here are better ! read more

Ordered for delivery via DoorDash. Toasted Marshmallow Latte arrived half empty because it was spilled all over the outside of the cup since they did not package properly, and what was remaining just tasted like regular coffee . The Hoboken Girl I had spent $3 extra to add bacon and they added only ONE strip of bacon for that, not worth it at all & since there was barely anything I did not get that crunch I was hoping for since all the other ingredients were soft. And if there was any jalapeno aioli in it I did not taste it at all because there was zero kick to it and it was just bland. Plus it arrived cold even though they are not far. Chocolate croissant had almost no chocolate in it (see pic) and what was there had a weird orangey flavor to it which I hated. I never got to taste the Truffle Brownie since they forgot it completely from the order!! So careless. Very disappointing. read more

Order a bunch of pastries for takeout. Those included: Sfogliatella (5/5) Crispy and prepared to perfection. Loved the ricotta, orange-essence filling. Fabulous! St Joseph Pastry (4/5) Tasted soggier than I'd expected it to be. The Pistachio filing was nice and creamy, but I would prefer an even stronger pistachio flavor. Lobster Tail (4.5/5) This was flaky and well executed. Chocolate Mousse Cake (4/5) Good chocolate notes but was on the drier side. Nutella Bombolini (4/5) Would've preferred the outside to have not been glazed, but overall enjoyable! read more

Have been meaning to leave this updated review for a while now. Just finished an iced coffee drink ,and a sfogliatella, which is the classic, crispy layered breakfast pastry of Naples. Normally they arrive here hot or warm, but it's 11 degrees out right now, so no such luck. Such consistency! Crispy, fresh and baked each morning. I always know that the coffee drinks and the pastry will be like superior quality. In keeping with the Naples theme here, I usually order the Vesuvio panini, or a prosciutto supreme, also delicious, as usual. Chicken panini is also very tasty. Have not tried dinner entrees, but his pizza and focaccia are really old school, traditional and very good. His veggie ones are especially good. Not ideal for cannoli. Rainbow cookies are also good here, and so are the eclairs. Had an almond croissant, which is very crispy and fresh, too. A real HOBOKEN asset. read more

This place has it ALL! I don't write a lot of reviews but for this place I will. First off I've had nearly everything from the menu & it's all top shelf. I mostly go for the paninis but it's all good, let's be honest. Incredible selection of sweets as well. The fact that I'm only block & a half away has me maybe a lil bit biased? WHATEVER!!! Place rules & people that work here are always so cheerful & pleasant makes it a no brainer to come back 3-4 times a WEEK. Absolutely love this place & so happy to have them nearby. Would give 10 stars if yelp allowed read more

Doesn't the cross section of these sandwiches look amazing? Both were delicious and the service was great- the workers would even come out onto the patio where people were eating to make sure they were happy with their food. Prices are fair, the treats looked delicious. Cozy spot that makes for a perfect quick Sunday morning breakfast out. We got the Caprese and Spicy Texas sandwiches and shared the two. Different flavors, but refreshing and filling at the same time. read more

Have ordered from Alessio a few times and they have not disappointed. Good food and fast and fairly priced! I will be ordering again!

Hoboken already has its fair share of Italian restaurants in town, but if you haven't tried Alessio's, you're missing out. I first discovered this quick service spot upon a pizza crawl, and it has become one of my staple spots! It's a great casual restaurant to grab a slice of pizza, a coffee, some dessert / gelato...even all at once if you prefer. If you love crispy thin crusts, you'll love their pizza. I've ordered several slices here where everything I've tried was delicious. In addition, they have a good variety of options from wings, salads, sandwiches, meatballs, fries, and more. Their dessert case always looks amazing (hello cannolis!) as does their gelato. There's a couple of tables inside and outdoors which can also accommodate a large group. Highly recommend and will be back! read more

Visiting for a few days and ordered delivery for dinner. The Capriccioso pizza was excellent. We also ordered a Greek salad for $14. It was disappointing for the price. It was flavorful but 80% lettuce. Skip the salad and try their pizza. A very good value and better than expected. We ordered a large pizza but I just included a pic of a slice. We got delivery in about an hour on Friday night. read more

I come here daily only because it is across the street from my child's school. The sweets are delicious, coffee is meh and the service is horrible. The people behind the counter do not greet, acknowledge your presence and they will forget your order. A typical morning at Alessios includes standing awkwardly waiting for one of the five people behind the counter to acknowledge you so you can place your order. Once they decide they are ready to take your order, they seem really inconvenienced by your presence. Then they will totally forget to make your coffee because they are too busy chatting. The owner seems really nice so it's unfortunate that the younger employees are so miserable. Typical encounter: Me: *awkwardly standing waiting for someone to take my order Employee approaches the register and looks at me (no words are spoken) Me: Hi! Good morning can I please have a mini cannoli? Employee rings it up and gets cannoli (still no words are spoken) Register asks if I want to tip employee I take my cannoli and go kick rocks read more

Why is the service here always so slow??!! It should not take 30 minutes to make a to go panini. I don't know what the hype is about this place. Every time I've come in to order I'm frustrated by how long it takes. What's worse is that it was 90 degrees today and they had no air conditioning on! We couldn't even wait inside. While our sandwiches were good, there are better places in town and they certainly were not worth the wait. We weren't the only ones about to lose it today over the wait time.... read more

Italian cafe that does coffee, pizza, sandwiches, and pastries. I got a square vodka slice ($4.69), a sausage, pepperoni, and pepper slice ($4.69), and a mini cannoli ($2.81). The vodka slice was crisp and very rich, which tastes very good but is kinda sickening. The slice was an 8/10 in taste. The sausage and pepperoni slice was absolutely enormous, about twice the size of my hand. It was super floppy, chewy, and not very flavorful. (5/10 slice). The cannoli was disappointingly soft and bland. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They must not like getting business because they didn't have AC on and it was sweltering inside[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Brought home some breakfast sandwiches from Alessio's today - Spicy Texas Sandwich for my husband and Veggie Tricolore for me. Although I wasn't a huge fan of the ciabatta bread, the sandwich ingredients were fresh, and we both liked the sauces (pesto for me / chipotle aioli for him). The Bombolone with Nutella was delicious! Try microwaving it for 10 seconds if you're eating it at home. Yum! read more
