I came with a small group on a Tuesday night. We started off by sharing the whipped ricotta and the…read moreHamachi crudo. I was a big fan of both, especially the ricotta, which was so incredibly creamy. For the mains, everyone's fresh-made pasta was excellent. I ordered the Mexican street corn, which was unique, flavorful, and delicious. I also tried some of the spicy rigatoni and loved it. We ended the night with the s'mores dessert, which was rich and chocolatey. Also, the fact that the restaurant is BYOB is a huge plus! The only downside was that I lost an item during our visit. I had a really hard time finding their contact information online, so I had to go back in person to ask about it, which was a bit annoying. Ultimately, they weren't able to recover it, but the food itself was still outstanding.

I came here with 4 hungry friends, and so we indulged by getting a lot of food and sharing everything family style. For starters we got the whipped ricotta and spicy-ish Caesar salad. They were both delicious but I'd go back just for the salad alone, had a nice kick and sooo much cheese on top, YUM! Main plates: we shared 4 diff pastas. The Mexican street corn, spicy rigatoni, cavatelli, and fettuccini. They were equally good but my favorite was hands down the fettuccini and rigatoni. Everything was so creamy and well seasoned. The ambiance: low moody lighting. Cool plates and attentive and kind service. I'd def recommend for date night with your lover our group of friends.

Our dinner and overall experience at Anthony David's was stellar!…read more We started with the Heirloom Baby Beets, which were served with citrus, pistachios, and a creme fraiche. It was a light, summery appetizer in which the earthiness of the beets was offset beautifully by the bright citrus notes. For the entrees, we got the Truffle Carbonara, Pistachio-Crusted Branzino, and the Hanger Steak. All were exceptionally good! My steak was cooked perfectly to medium-rare, was well-seasoned, and was taken up an extra notch by the delicious peppercorn sauce. The branzino was also a big hit with both people who ordered it. They praised the dish at length, and one person kept going back for more bites even after announcing she was stuffed! Our server was vivacious and happily chatted with us about the many menu options, giving us tips about the most popular dishes not just among customers, but the staff as well. She was great! I encourage you to treat yourself to dinner here. It was a lovely meal!

I definitely recommend having a reservation as they were pretty busy on a Sunday morning. The Cappuccino was well-made, soothing, and gave me a much-needed caffeine kick. We got one sweet & one savory dish because that's the best way to brunch! The Steak & Eggs was surprisingly good! The hanger steak was juicy, tender, and well-seasoned. I had asked for the eggs to be soft scrambled and I felt like they were a touch overcooked but still enjoyable and paired well with the steak. The brunch potatoes could've been way crispier but I did enjoy the peppers & onions mixed it. The French Toast was fantastic. The coconut butter was a nice addition and it was the right sweetness level overall. Good try for brunch!

Classic neighborhood spot. We went on a Sunday around noon as a party of three without reservation,…read moreput our name on the waiting list, and were seated in about 20-25 min, which wasn't bad at all. The service was friendly and attentive throughout our meal. We started with the French onion soup, although it arrived at the same time as our entrees instead of beforehand. Even so, it ended up being my favorite dish of the meal. Rich and flavorful. For my entree, I ordered the steak and eggs. It was decent, but the quality of the steak wasn't quite what I expected. My mom had the chicken salad, which she said was satisfying, and my husband ordered the eggs, ham, toast and French fries, a solid classic breakfast that he enjoyed. We also had a side of bacon that were tasty and crunchy just I liked them. Overall, Elysian Cafe had a cozy neighborhood atmosphere and good service that makes it a pleasant place to spend a.weekend brunch. That said, I found some of the food to be underwhelming. If you're looking for a charming local bistro, it's worth a visit, but if your main priority is exceptional food, there are stronger brunch options in Hoboken .

We went here for a special event with a tasting menu and wine pairing and had so much fun…read more The vibes of the place are great and there is a combination of modern pub with some classic design elements and molding on the walls and ceiling. The menu we had was specific to the tasting even but all made by the same everyday chef. The first course was white asparagus with a hollandaise sauce and that was so tender and delicious but light enough that I wasn't full at all. The second course was halibut with risotto and crab and there was so much meatiness. It was my favorite place and the flavors went so well together. Next was grilled oysters and I've never liked oysters but these were amazing! The bacon and breadcrumbs that had a slight lemon flavor went so well with the oysters. Next was lamb loin with stewed white beans and carrots. The lamb was medium rare, I could have skipped the beans but that's me. Dessert was a strawberry Terrine which was full of fresh and authentic strawberry flavor. I would come back and try their normal menu and also do a tasting again as it was delicious and reasonably priced.

I've been coming to Zack's over 10 hears and man how it has fallen apart…read more.. I was extremely disappointed by my experience at Zack's today. The biggest issue was the hostess, who was incredibly rude and completely unaccommodating. From the moment we arrived, the attitude was dismissive and made us feel like we were inconveniencing them simply by being there. What was especially frustrating was the complete lack of willingness to accommodate a reasonable request. Instead of trying to find a solution or even communicating with us in a helpful way, the hostess came across as annoyed and unwilling to make any effort whatsoever. I understand that restaurants can be busy and that not every request can be accommodated, but there is a huge difference between saying "we're unable to do that" politely and treating customers like they are a nuisance. Unfortunately, the experience at Zack's was the latter. There are plenty of restaurants in Hoboken that manage to be busy while still treating their customers with basic courtesy and hospitality. Based on this experience, I won't be returning to Zack's and would think twice about recommending it to anyone.

The organic chicken was executed cleanly, retaining moisture and natural flavor without drying out, which speaks to disciplined temperature control. The meal closed with a bread pudding that was rich and elevated by a caramel sauce that complemented rather than overwhelmed the dish. Flow: Service followed a structured and intentional cadence. Guests were asked to place the full order upfront, allowing the kitchen to control pacing. This resulted in smooth ticket firing and appropriate spacing between dishes, creating intervals to enjoy drinks without feeling rushed or delayed. Hospitality: Service was attentive and organized.

Recently changed name - if you order for pickup, please note the sign is different. There is a sign "chicken factory" but that's if you walk really close or right next to building - door - window. Food: 1. Large size drumstick and chicken. Comes with 10 wings and 6 drumsticks. See my menu photo for the portions for each size 2. Hot | Taro milk tea /w Boba + Thai Milk Tea /w Boba Portions were great. The bubble tea - there are plenty of them around here, but I really liked the ones here. Very nice to see a merchant that has Korean dishes of all varieties including donuts - churros - corn dogs!!! Absolutely loved the menu. The chicken and drum sticks were soy sauce garlic marinated. Crispiness was great. Portions were fantastic. Plenty of actual meat behind the fried skin. Both were delicious particularly with accompanying hot sauce. One of the better Korean fried chickens I've gone to. The drinks were good too. If you don't want to visit two merchants (chicken + boba) the two drinks I ordered I consider single boba store level. Gong cha, etc. Loved our food and drink. Had left overs for next day and gobbled it up with wifey. Service: Lidia took my order her service was fantastic! At the end she gave me a matcha donut on the house as we were talking and she was explaining the 15 year history. Highly recommend trying this place. Super Bowl 2026?
