This restaurant was named one of the top restaurants in NJ and it was easy to see why. Good, friendly service. Great menu and tasty food. Not to mention the location, which is right on the water with picture perfect views of lower Manhattan. We were there on a pleasant summer night and it was perfect. I would recommend! read more

Been here several times. This ends up being our go to place whenever we have out of town visitors. We've sat inside and outside during nice warm weather. Doesn't seem to matter where you sit. The view is great and the atmosphere is relaxing. The food is delish. Hubby swears by their fish and chips and devours it in minutes. I try to make my way down the menu each time we go to try each and every item. So far I haven't had a dish I didn't like. On one of our visits I did have the lobster mac n cheese which was so yummm, couldn't put my fork down...even eating this hot and filling dish outside was good. We (including any of our guests we've brought so far) clean our plates.... we're either always hungry or the food is just that good, HA! The wait staff is very friendly which adds to our dining experience. Being recognized by a couple of the staff makes us feel right at home. read more

It was just ok. We did the chefs tasting menu 6 courses $85. Food: 3 stars We liked some courses better than others- the Alaskan cod was very good. The short rib and scallop dish was really bad- scallops were undercooked and entire center was raw. Everything else was good. Service: 1.5-2 stars For the money that you pay...bill was near $600 including tax and tip....I expect great service, not Outback Steakhouse. Actually, that's a burn on outback, I've gotten better service there. It looked like everyone was new except the manager and one other server (who we did not get). Our server was clearly new (did not know how to pour wine and spilled on the table). He would leave the menus on the table, forget to replace the silverware, just basic stuff. What killed me was that one of the dishes was lacking some ingredient and instead of just saying I'm sorry let me go check (basic table service), the first thing he did was argue and say that's just how it is and I don't have control over it. Also, everyone who brought out the food looked like they were about to drop the plates. A large part of doing a tasting menu is the service that comes with it....and it sucked. Probably wouldn't come back. read more

This was the worst service we ever had at brunch. Waited 2 hours for our main course 15 people in the place when we got there The food was buffet quality and a charge $60 a head for the privilege and wanted to charge $9 a person to slice my mother's 95th birthday cake The people were not trained very well And the kitchen was in a total state of disarray you can tell because it's an open kitchen and I was looking at the people working there. the line chefs and whomever the head chef was and they all looked bewildered like they jus were taken of another job and thrown in the kitchen Maybe I caught a bad day but The day that I was there this past Sunday it sucked read more

Booked and confirmed this place for a birthday dinner for 10 people, almost a month in advance. Only after I notified everyone attending did the restaurant call me back to tell me my reservation has been cancelled due to them booking a private event. I guess to hell with the rest of any customers that previously booked for that day. Don't plan on ever trying to go back due to poor customer service. read more

We went here for brunch while on vacation. The location and views were amazing. The food was all outstanding! Service was good, but at times slow. Our glasses sat empty more than once. Back to the outstanding food. At our table we had Fried Egg, Crab and Potato Hash (absolutely phenomenal), BBQ Short Rib BLT (he lived it), and the Mangalitsa Pork Burger (another favorite). We also indulged in a couple of sides which I would highly recommend doing. We will absolutely be back for brunch again. read more

What a lovely experience we had here at Maritime Parc. I got the burger which was just perfect and my wife had a salad which was amazingly fresh. We love coming here for Sunday brunch and it is definitely A favorite of ours. I do not understand the harsh reviews as this is probably our 8th time here and the wonderful experience is ALWAYS consistent! read more

Perfect setting: by the water, on Liberty Landing Marina, overlooking Manhattan across the Hudson river. Beautiful elegant decor. Very efficient service. Outstanding wine menu. Small yet superb menu, that changes seasonally. Everything we had was amazing. One of the best meals we have had in a long time. Starting from the complimentary bread and finishing with the dessert. One point that always makes a good impression to me is plenty of sides of vegetable options on the menu. The out of the box combination of flavors that come together to give you a balanced explosion to your palate: like the cauliflower with capers and fresh figs, or the octopus with chorizo. On Thursdays they offer a burger and raw oysters special. The burger was one of the best we have ever had: thick, flavorful and juicy, cooked to perfection. It comes with duck fries. The homemade cocktail sauce and the mignonette that come with the oysters are superb. read more

The restaurant has under went a complete renovation and new staff. The New menu is great, many new selections. Everything is fresh and outstanding! I'm really impressed by the staff and their service. The food is well priced, and the restaurant is comfortable. Nice view of the Freedom tower and Liberty Landing Marina. Highly recommend it!! read more

Came here for an event and the food is atrocious. It was very cold this weekend, and there was no heat, everyone was cold and freezing. Cocktail hour= basically frozen items (even celery was frozen) and served the stalest bread. For entree I order the beef option, but none of the servers asked us how we would like the beef cooked. Dessert-=again probably frozen And defrosted. Honestly I would never ever hold a event here. It's not worth the money at alllll. read more

First I'd like to start by saying that I'm a waitress at a seafood restaurant in Texas. Roadtrip pdf up to NJ/NY and the first restaurant where we had a sit down nice dinner was here. Walking in, it was beautiful and welcoming! We decided to sit inside because it was a little chilly (probably a mistake since every other review says you are paying for the view not the food) The spring menu consisted of 5-6 apps, 5-6 entrees, 4 sides.. which is consistent with many other fine dining places. What ISNT acceptable is having overpriced-- and small menu with food that is not good. There were 5-6 servers working last night and maybe 7 tables in the whole restaurant but they still managed to have our food come out really late. To the point where the people that came in after us received their apps, and food faster than ours. Well I'd like to believe It was because my boyfriend ordered a steak so It takes a little longer but it was medium rare. Again I work in a restaurant and have been for many years so I know cooking times of a 8oz Ny strip. Appetizers came out and we had the ravioli, it was good. Of course small portions but that is expected in fine dining. Actual entrees are what took forever to come out. And are server was no where to be seen for ages. Food comes out much much Later, my boyfriend had the NY strip 8oz with creamy Brussels sprouts, I had this strigoli seafood pasta. The pasta lacked any flavor but I cut that up to me comparing It to my own seafood restaurants pasta because a Cajun seafood restaurant and having much more seasoning. So I forgave the bland pasta. Boyfriend let me try his steak and it was horrendous. It was cooked right but you can tell it was rushed (probably because our server forgot to put in our food) it had the nastiest char-grilled taste to it. It was so bad that I even asked him if he wanted to return the steak, us being two servers NEVER return food because we get it and it's an annoyance but this was unacceptable. We decided not to return the steak because it'd probably take forever to get a new one and since we are a younger couple- they'd probably assume we couldn't afford the food. Ended the night with boxing our food, yes because food is food and my pasta was horrible it was just bland. I still regret not saying anything about the food especially when the manager asked us if everything was good but we wanted to stay faced or were too embarrassed to do so. The downside of being young I suppose. One positive came out of it, they validated our parking since it was over 2hrs so we didn't have to pay $7 for parking. TLDR: we are young servers at a Cajun resturant, food was bland, steak was really badly charred up. Wont be back. read more

My wife and I had NYE dinner here and had high hopes for it's location and menu. We arrived to complimentary valet which was nice, but when we entered we had to wait a few minutes to even speak to someone as there was no one at the host stand, very awkward. Once seated, we were given water but then waited a solid 15 minutes to be greeted by our server to order a bottle of wine. After ordering we were told another 15 minutes later that they no longer had that bottle available. After choosing a different bottle it was 10 minutes before we were served. A total of 40 minutes to get our first glass of wine poured?! Overall, the food was good, not as expected but tasty and the presentation was nice on the plate. Service: - had to ask to clear our bread plates - had to ask for more water multiple times - server was not attentive, never once asked how our food was for any of the three courses - was given the check without asking if we wanted anything else, we did want an after dinner drink but we're not given a chance to even order it. - the check was left on the table with no check holder or anything as if it was a deli for lunch. - when we did finally get up to leave after paying the server witnessed this and failed to say anything, not "thank you" or even a simple "good night". The service needs some attention to be worthy of the Manhattan prices. read more

Food was OK. We did the chef's tasting menu for $85pp. Not a bad price. The fish plates were very fishy and probably the worst plates of the tasting. The gnudi and risotto (first two plates) were by far the most unique and most flavorful. For dessert, you can choose anything off their regular menu. Now let's move on the service, because I have A LOT to say about this topic. The service from this wait staff is probably one of the worst I have ever experienced in my life. When the hostess brought us to our table outdoors, one chair was literally touching another which someone was already sitting. Clearly, the tables were super close. I'm like.. "do you mind moving our table a little further away. there's plenty of space." Damn, I'm not about to sit on top of another person. Next, no one introduces themselves and it's confusing to under who's your waiter and who are the food runners. Luckily, we got our drinks and our orders taken in a timely manner. The food from the tastings came out in about 15minutes intervals, which was enough time for you to enjoy the current plate and digest some prior to the arrival of the next dish. No one explained the dish when they placed it on the table. They're like, "oh here, enjoy." I'm like.. what the fuck am I eating? So we had the tasting menu pdf file on the phone to look at the description. Let's move on to the water boy. HE IS RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!!! Boyfriend's water glass was already almost at the top. But he still took the water glass and poured until it overflowed onto the table, onto boyfriend's lap. Then water boy proceeds to pour the extra water BACK INTO THE PITCHER!! I'm like.. OMG... now his backwash is going to be in the pitcher for everybody else to drink. Water boy also didn't wipe up all water he accidentally poured on the table. He simply WALKED AWAY. WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT?!!! Then at the end of dinner, I'm still eating my dessert, water boy goes "do you want more water." We said no, and then he takes our glasses off the table. Hahaha. UNBELIEVABLE!!! Water glasses should always be the last thing to leave the table. In addition, no one clears plates and no one seems to pay enough attention to want to do so. I helped stack the plates up, and we called them over to clear the table. Overall, nice location, mediocre food, horrible service. Valet parking needs help too because they didn't know how to start boyfriend's car. Probably wont' be back. read more

I think Maritime Parc needs a PR team and I'm offering my services for free. This place is one of the best restaurants in JC (some would even say NJ http://njmonthly.com/articles/restaurants/the-top-25-restaurants-2013.html), yet half empty every time I go. Is it the location? No, Liberty House is right across the parking lot and it's packed (and serving shittier food). Is it the food? No, my meals here over the course of 2 years have been consistently excellent, except for a slightly underwhelming restaurant week dinner. The service? Nope, the staff is knowledgeable and accommodating. So why is it possible to stroll in on a Friday night during prime time and grab a table? Maritime Parc, HELP ME HELP YOU. Obviously I can't remember every meal I've had here, but I do know I've loved most of them. Recently I had a fantastic asparagus appetizer with duck prosciutto and a poached egg. Also, a creamy corn and kale egg roll appetizer served over micro greens and topped with a smoky bacon dressing. That shit blew me away. The burger is a fancy style burger and is pretty solid. The sea bass dish over black rice and Miso glazed egg plant is great. I recall having a few great duck dishes here as well, but can't remember the details. The dishes here are well thought out and inventive. Not quite up there with 30 Acres as far as creativity, but close and arguably more accessible. The decor of the restaurant is gorgeous. The views of the NYC skyline and the Statue Of Liberty are amazing, and the inside looks like it was designed by Steve Jobs, Jony Ive, and Buddha. Service is top notch as well... for the most part. The servers are very on point and make great recommendations, but one gripe is they sometimes end up disappearing for WAY too long. The pros definitely outweigh the cons though, so if you have a special occasion coming up or are just looking for a memorable meal, stroll on in immediately (no reservation necessary). read more

When I rate a really nice, expensive restaurant, I usually use the standard "would I rather eat here than at Cafe Matisse (in Rutherford)? IMO, Cafe Matisse is the best local restaurant and certainly one of the best meals I've ever had. Fortunately for them and unfortunately for everyone else, no other restaurant is on par. That doesn't mean that Maritime Parc isn't a solid choice. It's quite good and anyone considering going there should absolutely do so and are guaranteed a great experience. But for me, 5 Stars is reserved for perfection. My meal and drinks here were outstanding. Service was attentive but somewhat amateurish. The restaurant itself is beautiful and visually striking. I would absolutely go back without hesitation but it's just not my first choice. Make sense? read more

Arrived at 7:15 and there weren't any people in the restaurant. Usually a bad sign. However, Chris the bartender explained that they are usually closed Monday to Wednesday. They are open Memorial Day to Labor Day on Wednesday. By 9:00 p.m. the outside seating was packed. Dinner was delicious. We shared the tuna tartare with crab meat and avocado mousse. For a main course we had the Scallops that were "hell's kitchen" worthy.the celery root puree and beet beurre blanc completed the dish. We also had the swordfish with a broth exploding with flavor. Just because, we tried the duck fat fries. They are to die for. Duck fat where have you been all my life? Service was average. Had to ask for bread and butter and received dipping oil as well. The oil was loaded and delicious. View was special. Love looking at Paulus Hook. Great place to take family from out of town. read more

Wonderful location to eat, food's banging, staff is on point, scenery top 2. If you see a bad review it's probably from an entitled silver spoon yuppy who thinks their shit doesn't stink, which I see many of those eat here and give nasty attitudes to the wonderful, polite, and sweet staff. Keep rocking maritime!! I'm on your side, and feel sorry that you have to deal with some of the patrons you do. read more

So I'm giving this a three because of the effort by the staff. If they had been snobby or had an attitude I would've given it a two but sometimes you gotta look past the product. That said. I was not really impressed with this place. Nice venue. Beautiful really. Right in Liberty State Park I can see why peeps have events here. Looking out and seeing downtown NYC, downtown JC, and Lady Liberty is awesome. Came here with some Yelpers to try their Thursday special of oysters, burger, fries, and a pint for twenty smacker roos. Good deal considering. Now to start the beer on the menu was not the beer they had. Bad form. And the waitress was having a really hard time keeping straight who was getting what drink. She was trying though. When the oysters came out we were all over them like a pack of wild dogs. They were excellent and there were plenty to go around. They had a great hot sauce and this, for the life of me I cant remember, tangy juice was delish. When the burger and fries came out I gotta say that I was very disappointed. It didn't really have a great flavor and the duck fat fries did not have a lot of duck fat flavor. Looking at the other burger options that my friends got they didn't look very happy with their choice either. I know its a special and that you get what you pay for but come on. The are a bunch of spots in JC that make better burgers for cheaper. No special required. I'm glad that everybody there was super helpful and gracious but I gotta say that Maritime needs to step up it's quality of food or I don't think that even $20 special will save them. read more

Awesome place! Highly recommend!!! Staff and service was top notch & so nice!! Food is delicious! Drinks get two thumbs up and REALLY nice location/views of the city. We had an awesome server-- a young man with curly black hair who was AMAZING! Love this place! My only suggestion would be maybe lessen the amount of wood burning fire pits in the outdoor seating area b/c the smoke can be a bit overwhelming. read more

Looking for a place this summer in Jersey City to chill on an outdoor patio with a drink and look at the sunset reflect off the lower Manhattan skyline? This is the place to be, and I'm gonna be there right with you. Maritime Parc is a little out of the way. It sits on the far end of the Paulus Hook marina in Liberty State Park and without a car, the restaurant is inaccessible unless you like to walk a long way or you have one of those multi-million dollar yachts to ferry you across the marina. The good thing is that the Water Taxi makes a pit stop there from the little known Warren Street pier that costs only $2 a trip. I need to find out details, but I have heard that it goes every 30 min after 6pm. The wait-staff here is pretty awesome. I met the bartender Dillon there, and he was extremely helpful and pleasant. Made a lovely drink for the ladies, and poured me a nice glass of bourbon after a tough day. He also told us about the Thursday burger specials which I am looking to capitalize on this summer. I'm a little mixed on the entrees. The entrees tasted great... nice delicate touches that made your pallet pause and appreciate the work that went into it... but they were more European-sized than American. In other words, its like getting a Kobe slider instead of getting a hearty Shake Shack double. I guess I wouldn't have minded as much if I had known ahead of time, but there was some serious shock factor involved when I saw my plate come out. The same could be said for the desserts. In a stark 180 from the entrees, the desserts were HUGE. The slice of chocolate cake was LARGER than my entree, and I got the 14oz steak. Go in with the mindset of ordering an individual appetizer, entree, and dessert, and you should be good to go. It sums up to a pricey meal, but one thing I have to say is that you get the full 3 course dinner experience rather than ordering an oversized entree that prevents you from tasting anything else. read more

Let me start by saying that the food in here is excellent. And the staff is very nice. But there's a reason why this place only gets one star. I have been there 3 times, and twice the parking attendant has tried to rip me off. Both times it was an older gentleman, who tried to take money from me even though I ate in the restaurant and was told by the hostess that I didn't need a validated ticket before 10PM to leave the parking lot. I challenged him both times. The first time he gave me an argument for a few minutes and only when I said I would go back in and get it sorted out with the management did he let me through. Tonight there was a line of cars behind me and I couldn't do that, and he insisted I give him seven dollars or he wouldn't let me out. I relented, but needless to say it left a very bad taste in my mouth and I shall never return here. It's the little details like this that can ruin an otherwise very good experience. read more

Location, location, location as the saying goes and boy-oh-boy does Maritime Parc have that in spades! This amazing restaurant is located in Liberty State Park with all the view that it has to offer. The New York City skyline is simply inspiring to see while dining here. The private boats and yachts that are docked in such close proximity makes it even more panache. So when I went with the folks for a nice Sunday brunch under remarkably sunny weather, I knew it was going to be a fabulous experience. Let's start with the look and feel of the restaurant shall we. Maritime Parc is located in a circular building with the event space at the top floor and the restaurant at the bottom. Upon entering the place you can tell right away that they want to exude a modern, upscale dining experience that infuses some nautical elements. The nearly floor to ceiling windows provides an amazing view and lets in so much natural light especially on bright and sunny days. Forget about linen on your table because the minimalist approach to their setting continues the modern vibe. I can only comment on the brunch service here at Maritime Parc. A great atmosphere and ambiance can easily be ruined by mediocre food but fortunately for my visit I had nothing but delicious food. Armed with an order of the quintessential mimosa my folks and I studied the menu to see what would tickle our fancy. After asking our server what he would recommend, I went with the lobster mac and cheese carbonara. Mom had the salmon burger with fried egg, marinated beets, and green onion mayo and pops went with the smoked salmon and potato hash browns, fried egg, sour cream, and bacon. A side of crispy string beans and duck fat fries rounded out the feast. The orders arrived not too long after and I dug in right away. The first bite of my lobster mac and cheese was simply heaven. Perfectly cooked pasta swimming in cheddar cheese with perfectly done crust at the top sealing it all in. The lobster pieces were plenty and meaty. I could actually taste it! The peas that were present added a nice hint of sweetness that balanced the richness of the dish perfectly. The sides, which were generous in portion, did not disappoint either. The crispy string beans were fresh, retaining the crisp snap of the fruit, while having the crunchiness of the batter. Dipped into it's accompanying spicy sauce, it was perfect. Now the duck fat fries needs no introduction. Greasy, fatty, flavorful duck fat used as cooking oil for thick slices of fries and my inner gastronome knows nothing but love for it. After a great brunch with the folks, I want nothing more but to come back and try dinner service here. I hope it will still have the same level of food to keep me happy because let's face it that view outside the restaurant is worth a visit unto itself. read more

This pretty much sums it up. Great view of the water and city, great venue, decent food, shaky service, overpriced.

How in the tom foolery did I not know about their Thursday burger special?!!! For $20 you get a choice of wine or beer, a burger and fries and a half a dozen oysters. IT. WAS. AMAZING. I had the MP burger which was delish (although the medium turned out to be more rare than I anticipated). I also ordered the duck fat fries which were so damn good I began to hate the regular fries my burger came with. All in all it was very good, I'm just sad I didn't get to try more. But don't worry, I'll be back. read more

So, I have lived in Jersey City for 6 years and had never been to Maritime Parc. In my head, I always figured it was a touristy type of restaurant in Liberty State Park aiming for the wedding crowd. I could not have been more wrong. Went here on Saturday night and had a superb meal, beautiful views and fantastic service. Before we even ordered, they brought out like 3 types of bread with this amazing dipping oil with melon, feta, sun-dried tomato...really topnotch. I also had a delicious cocktail - the Brunette. Then, we started with oysters and this pork belly kung pao - amazing! For our main entrees, we had the scallops with short rib and the skate. Both were divine. They ended the meal by bringing us delicious homemade cookies to take home. This place is a winner. We will be back for the tasting menu and wine pairings! read more

Martime, you have my heart. I've been here several times since finding it a couple years ago. I love the fact that it's a nice change from the hustle and bustle of downtown restaurants. I also love that it isn't Liberty House (cause that place sucks). It's nice to be able to have quality food and service and be able to look out at the water and pretty boats. My visits here seesaw between brunch and dinner; I've probably been her equally for each meal and I have never been disappointed. I've been most recently for brunch this weekend. I was again, impressed. I hadn't seen many of the things they've added to the brunch menu so I was pleasantly surprised. I'm a "steak and eggs" fiend lol so basically anytime that's an option, that's what I get. I was a little annoyed that they didn't list what cut of steak it was and I had to ask but "say may tay" (my grandma's version of "whatever")-lol. The steak was cooked a perfect medium-rare, though the sear may have been a smidge too much. My eggs were cooked right (over-easy) and it came with their famous duck fat fries. Color me happy. My dining partner got the lobster Mac & cheese carbonara; which was also completely delicious and overflowing with lobster pieces. I'd say prices are comparable to downtown, maybe even a tiny bit cheaper. Their delicious burger (which is a nice size and comes with a mound of duck fat fries) is only like $12. As many times as ive been here, I've never been disappointed. Quite the opposite. It great for one-on-one, groups, special occasion, or an impromptu brunch. read more

We have finally had it with this place! My wife and I have been boat owners in the adjacent marina for 5 years and when this restaurant first opened it was great. My wife is a vegan and they were kind and accommodating. The food was quite good as well. Flash forward one year and they wouldn't even give her french fries that were not fried in duck fat. I eat everything and have found myself thee on the odd Thursday burger and oyster deal. My guess is that they do this in hopes to drum up some extra business. Well, they have achieved the opposite, all that they have done is expose their incompetencies through this promotion. The food is now mediocre at best and the service is atrocious! What's worse is no one seems to care to make any changes whatsoever. I will be blown away if this restaurant is still open next year. read more

Wouldn't go back. Was sick afterwards for hours. The food was too sweet. Horrendous. 2 stars because the waiter was great. Never again.

Came here for a large family birthday dinner and the staff was very accommodating. The food was overall good. However the duck-fat fries and mashed potato rings were not impressive. Everyone ordered a different dish -- I shared the braised pork app which was unbelievably good. I had the lobster risotto for my main course, which was a little on the salty side. The venue itself was fantastic! Right along the water, and the decor on the inside was pretty as well. Overall the food ranged from average to out of this world, the venue and location boosted the scoring, and the staff was the nicest. One of our guests had to send back a drink, because it was simply undrinkable, and the waiter kindly replaced it without charge or attitude! He was great and the second drink was much better (: read more

Maritime Parc - Risotto -- a wee bit salty - Venues & Event Spaces Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

I expected a lot more from Maritime, considering your on the Top 25 Restaurants in NJ according to NJ magazine. We went here for a special occasion and the service was everything but special. I'm not sure if it was an off night or maybe they were training new staff but if you want to be considered among the other restaurants in the list then you really need to take the service up a notch. The waitress was inattentive and slow and when its an hour and 15 into dinner and you still have not gotten your entrees something's wrong considering the place was dead and it was during the week. Also please note that diners usually like to get their dessert along with their coffee, not 15 minutes after the fact. Very amateurish! I hate to complain but its well warranted and when your manager or maître d' is walking around and is unable to notice things like this....you have a problem. Aside from the service, the food was excellent and the outdoor patio is a great place to enjoy a meal. read more

My oh my. I haven't had a meal like this in a long time. On top of the amazing views of NYC, Maritime Parc also offers up delicious food. The hubs and I stopped in here last weekend to celebrate our anniversary - I asked for steak, he asked for go karts. Thankfully, we started the night here. For apps we went with the soy glazed braised short ribs and the oysters with bacon cream sauce. My mouth waters just thinking about the short ribs. Perfectly cooked, melt in your mouth deliciousness. We had the waiter leave the plate so we could savor every last bite of that amazing glaze. The oysters were good, but the bacon creme (while tasty) was a bit overpowering. My steak was perfect. (I was nice and shared, even though I really really didn't want to). The filet mingon came with perfectly caramelized onions, melt in your mouth mushrooms and side of the best watercress salad I've ever had. A-Mazing. Hubs went for the short ribs and scallops. He enjoyed them both, but it seemed like the highlight of the table was steak. At the moment, I'm working on some flimsy excuse to go to dinner here again soon. read more

We had a beautiful anniversary dinner here. The views, food, and service were exceptional. We stuck to the seafood dishes and they were very fresh and had a lot of flavor. The waiters and bartenders were also very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend! read more

The absolute worst service. I believe there was a female manager on the floor that was useless. We were seated and immediately ordered 6 drinks. (soda,beer, 2 bourbon, 2 vodka) It took 15 minutes to get... after asking "where are our drinks". There was 4 other people in restaurant. We noticed the wait staff hung out at bar through night. They were never on the floor assisting customers. We placed food order. Ordered 3 appetizers that came out late and served separately. The restaurant started to fill up. We weren't done with apps and dinner was being served... again having to wait between each person receiving theirs. Our table was mere feet away from kitchen... ridiculous service. Prior to meal one dinner ordered a glass of wine and asked for it to come before meal. Meal came- no wine. Asked server. He disappeared. One has to go to bar to get wine since the dinner was almost done. 3 servers and 2 bartenders hanging out at bar talking. Wine glass sitting there on bar. I grabbed wine and told server that the dinner was waiting for this. Then received the attitude from the servers and bartender. Just RUDE. This is not about shortage of servers. This was clearly lazy servers that wanted to hang and chat with one another at bar - then to serve diners. We ordered coffee.. asked for cream and sugar. We had to ask 2 other servers to bring cream. Coffe sat there getting cold. We left a tip. Unfortunately. Waiting for manners to return my telephone call. Do not rush to go here. The food was good. However, it was not enjoyed by coming in bits and pieces and sitting getting cold while we waited for utensils. Again the retainer was not busy. There were plenty of servers. Just no one doing their job... all huddled at bar or at hostess stand chatting. Avoid this place. For the money spent.. you can get equal or better food- that you can enjoy hot instead of waiting for utensils or glass of wine. read more

I am rating this place a ONE STAR because... 1) For the location and ambiance that they have, the food should be a lot better. Food taste like Diner food. 2) If they are going to serve Diner food, the price should reflect it. 3) If they want people to come back - at least the ones that know what good food is, they have to change the Chef. Hiring a short order cook who is trying to deliver good food, does not really help. We were here a while back when it just opened during Restaurant week for dinner to try...the food was so-so, and I figured, eh, it's coz it's restaurant week. We gave it another chance for Brunch today - diner food - yuk! Do not believe the New Jersey Magazine rating this to be one of 25 best restaurants in NJ. They lie. So for those of you reading this review...save your money and go to maybe Light Horse Tavern (great brunch), or Satis Bistro (good brunch), or across at Liberty House Restaurant - good brunch and great view, or Skinner's loft (we had dinner there, was ok, but not brunch, so I'm guessing ok). or Sam A.M. - although you need to be there before 11 AM or then you wait - their brunch servings are a little less than normal. Amanda's in Hoboken has decent brunch - but Hoboken parking is horrible. read more

I went to Maritime Parc for the first time this evening during restaurant week. The food was delicious and the ambiance was comfortable, contemporary, and allowed for us to have a nice conversation (i.e. not too loud). Overall we had a lovely time. The service, however, was atrocious, especially for what seemed like an upscale restaurant. Towards 9:30pm, the waiters were lined up next to the kitchen chatting or trying to hide behind service stations to text. They were playing with and dropping their suspenders to their waists like little boys at a long wedding. We tried on multiple occasions to catch the eye of a passing waiter to no avail. The hostess did the same thing--even when we called out to her--twice! After a 20+ minute wait with empty dessert plates, we finally got our waiter--David--to bring the check. He didn't have much to say and didn't clear our dessert plates before we left. As we were leaving he tossed cookies at us and mumbled something about "a gift from the restaurant." Not sure if this was supposed to be an apology for the wait? All in all, we had a good meal, but for the price--even during restaurant week--I would expect more attentive and polite service. And gentlemen, please keep your suspenders on until you get home! read more

This place is right on the water and really fancy shmancy looking when you first get there. So I was like oh my god this is going to be expeeeeeensiiiiiiive..... But we went on a Thursday which means..... 1/2 dozen oysters, 1 burger w/ fries (fried in duck fat), and 1 beer/glass of wine for.......$20!!!!! It was amazing!!!! Plus they have lots of different types of burgers. I go the MP classic burger which was delicious but they also have a scallop burger, a salmon burger, and another one I can't think of right now. It was also just a beautiful restaurant and we sat outside overlooking the water. Everything was great, including the service. It was so awesome! Plus everyone at the table gets a free huge awesome delicious cookie with the check!!! WHAT?! Needless to say I will be coming back again on a Thursday very soon! read more

We have a boat at liberty landing marina. It is nice having a couple of restaurants close by to grab a quick bite to eat at. However, I really do think maritime parc does a better job taking care of their private party guests upstairs than they do the general public. Every time I try to call in an order to go, there is an issue with the gal at the reservations desk. She is exceptionally rude as she "transfers" the call to the restaurant. The call is actually not transferred, you just sit on hold until you finally hang up. Food is decent, on the pricey side. Net net: for boaters, walk to the bar, and order your food to go. read more
