    Italian Chicken Sandwich
    Alyssa E.

    Solid spot for a great chicken sandwich. The chicken was perfectly crispy, the sauces were flavorful, and the price was very reasonable. The staff was friendly and even cut the sandwich in half for us when we mentioned we were sharing. It's a small, unassuming place, but they know how to deliver on quality and service. Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area.

    Delicious sandwiches in Jersey City! I had the Peruvian Chicken Sandwich which was packed with lots of panko breaded chicken and loads of flavor. The fries were also great. I was also interested in trying the Korean Chicken Sandwich. Restaurant has 6 seats indoors and 3 tables outdoors when the weather is nice. Friendly staff. Price is reasonable. Parking can be difficult as it is street parking.

    I got the Peruvian chicken sandwich. This is so worth your money omg. It was not one but two pieces of fried chicken stacked together, and it was piping hot & juicy. Such a satisfying meal. Anytime you want a fried chicken sandwich, you should come here.

    The Korean.  Very messy but a must get because it's juicy and crunchy chicken.

    ive had my eye on this spot for a minute. glad i finally came in and will be back. I grabbed the korean. the chicken is crunchy, but juicy. theres layers of flavor. VERY MESSY. i didnt think this was spicy, but felt some heat. the slaw is nice on top. the bun is buttery, but toasted. the sandwich itself is steep, priced at $15, but i think it's worth it. its made well and flavor profile is unique. small spot with 2 small tables, so id say not good for groups. they have maybe 8 other sandwiches and various fries. add them to your order for $3. good service, friendly staff & clean place.

    Great food. Awesome service. Chicken Sando was tops. (Korean chicken was not too hot. Kinda sweet.) Burger looked good too. Yum.

    Chicken Cesar sandwich

    I have been here a handful of times & every time I've tried a new sandwich. They literally never disappoint - I have yet to have a bad experience! My most recent try was their chicken Cesar sandwich & let me tell you, it was soooo delicious! 10/10 - no notes. I'm not sure if this is a permanent item on the menu but if it's not, it definitely should be. The sweet potato fries are also very good! Highly recommend!

    Messy but totally worth it. Ordered the Italian chicken sandwich with fries and it didn't disappoint. The sandwich was huge and delicious. My only complaint is the fries, I just wish they were a bit bigger and better to complement the sandwich. Took the order to go, service was quick and easy. Food truck converted to a walk in restaurant. Solid spot!

    Togarashi Fries
    Alecia B.

    Okay! The prices are fair! So I like that. The place is small but it's in Jersey City so it's cute and I love that they were playing 90'a rap/hip hop! Service is quick, we only waited like 10 minutes for 2 Mexican cheesesteaks. The cheesesteaks had the look of a Mexican style cheesesteak. The meat had all of the flavor but that was the problem! The aji verde sauce wasn't noticeable and the pickled onions complimented the meat, but the placement was wrong or not enough. They added that sweetness I was looking for to go with the meat just a little bit. The needed lime and spice. The entire time I was eating a sandwich. It was good, but each bite felt like it was missing something. The sandwich is a 6.5 for me and I feel lime and spice would kick it up a few notches. The free fries that were given to us had a sweet meat which was good but the fries either need to be crinkle cut or cooked a little less. They were too hard for loaded fries.

    No forks given is a hole in the wall burger find in the heart of Jersey city ! First time here, the owner was very friendly and quick to attend to us. We sat outdoors, and were served the food very promptly. Everything on the menu seemed and sounded delicious. The actual dishes surprisingly live up the expectations and rating. I really enjoyed my panko breaded spicy tofu burger, we also ordered the chicken burger and spicy fries. The slaw with the burger was so fresh and delicious and added to the flavor bomb. Overall really good first experience, and came out with happy full bellies. Will definitely come back here.

    Peruvian sandwich with tofu Togarashi fries

    It's always nice to see a great food truck make the move to brick and mortar. No Forks Given is a pretty recent addition to Brunswick Street, expanding on their menu of fried chicken sandwiches and cheesesteaks from a tiny storefront. I did a Peruvian sandwich with tofu in place of the chicken: aji amarillo + aji verde + pickled onions + cilantro + scallions + spicy mayo on brioche, and a side of togarashi fries (thin fries covered with spicy mayo + togarashi spice + scallions + sesame seeds). The sandwich was a mess, in a good way: crispy without being overly greasy, with a nice bite from the sauce. The fries were under seasoned, but the togarashi made up for it

    Peruvian Fried Chicken Sandwich

    Not sure how they are considered the best fried chicken sandwich. I got the Peruvian fried chicken sandwich . It came with two pieces of chicken that lacks a flavor. Looking at other photos, I certainly got two burnt pieces of chicken. If I had the sandwich without the chicken I would've said it was tasty.

The fries were a bit too much old bay so probably could have done without those. The wings and cheesesteak were excellent! They didn't skimp on the meat for the cheesesteak and the bread was perfect. To drink I had a couple rounds of the Dirty Water which was definitely made with love from our bartender. Would absolutely travel to the city and make this an Eagles watch part routine.

    I have to confess that I have even less of a yen for cheesesteaks than I do for actual steak at a…read moreplace like Gallagher's or Smith & Wolensky. I've been in Philadelphia numerous times and have never felt an urge to sample for myself and decide which of the "famous" cheesesteak competitors in the city, across the street from each other-- Pat's or Geno's--- is actually the "superior" one. Couldn't have been less interested (unless it was someone offering me free tickets to an Eagles game; THAT I would have been less interested in, given my near-total boredom when it comes to sports of any kind). I did go through a phase during my college years (money ill-spent, given my subsequent "career" trajectory) where I ate lunch often in the cafeteria and invariably ordered a cheesesteak and a piece of German chocolate cake. Not quite sure at this late date what that was all about, but let's just say it's not one of my admittedly few "treasured" memories. Having said all that, I did order food the other day from Midtown Philly and was well satisfied. I was at work in Hoboken, suffering through yet another migraine and the nauseating effects of the medication I take for it (I really should have been home in bed, but if I take off every day I have a migraine...which is usually every single week and occasionally 2 or 3 days in a row...I'd be out of my job in no time at all). As I've perhaps mentioned in previous reviews, when I am in the throes of a migraine, it almost never proves deleterious to my appetite. If anything, it enhances it. I glanced over at my co-worker/friend, the former Godfather of Lunch (in his newly found sobriety from gluttony, he has sworn off ordering food to be delivered to our office, calling it "stress eating"). Not expecting an affirmative response, I asked, "You feel like ordering out?" Surprisingly, he immediately replied, "OK. We can't order Lo Fatt Chow anymore. What does that leave?" "What do you want?" He mentioned Midtown Philly. We had ordered from there before, a long time ago, and I hadn't disliked it, but...as I've said...I rarely, when hungry, say to myself, "What I need right now is a cheesesteak." This time, though, it seemed like an inviting and inspired change of pace, and I responded, "Ok. Let's do it." I ordered a Pittsburgh cheesesteak, which was the steak (ribeye, as I've learned-- not Steak-umm's, as I once thought), cheese, and tricolor coleslaw. The sandwich was just enough-- not enough to be uncomfortably over-filling, not skimpy enough to leave one hungry and feeling cheated. It was a moist, flavorful sandwich that did assuage my hunger, and left me thinking, "Maybe I need to re-think this lifelong indifference to Philly cheesesteaks!" It was helped by a plentiful side order of French Fries (they have a decent side order selection to choose from, if one is so inclined), which were crisp, just as I like them. They were too many of them, in fact, and I unloaded some on the Godfather, who in turn spooned over his tomatoes to me (don't ask me to explain his antipathy to tomatoes; I don't know! Tomatoes are one of the very few things he won't eat). I also had a lemon-lime Gatorade, which sometimes helps soothe (or so I've thought) a migraine, the electrolyte draining preparation for a colonoscopy, and...in the past...the fierce hangover left by an overindulgence the previous night in alcohol and opioids. I'm unsure what the Godfather ordered-- either the Diablo cheesesteak or the Volcano cheesesteak-- but it was ... obviously, given the name they've bestowed upon it...very, very hot indeed. Not something my delicate digestive system would have been able to handle (although I do sometimes wish fervently that I could still eat like that). However, the Godfather pronounced himself well satisfied on finishing it and he wasn't breathing fire in my direction. This was one time he didn't chastise me for "pushing" him into ordering food. They have other items one can order, like Hoagies-- including "Sinatra's Hoagie" (of course; it's Hoboken, after all!), which consists of ham, Genova salami, provolone, lettuce, tomato, raw onions, olive oil, red wine vinegar. Next time, I might be tempted to order it. Salads too. And desserts. Prices were reasonable, delivery was quick and efficient, and the food really hit the spot, making the agony of my medicated migraine less intense and debilitating than it otherwise would have been. I very much recommend Midtown Philly. I look forward to ordering from there again, and I won't let a few years go by before I do so. And it has the enthusiastic seal of approval from the former Godfather of Lunch! What other recommendation do you really need?

Fedoroff's is great but pricey, and I remembered Olde City wasn't bad the last time I had it years ago, so I trekked in. Mistake. I should have stayed home. Garlic Parm wings were big and well-sauced, but when I bit in I found they were a bit drier than other wings I've had. And $19 for a plate of wings seems high. Italian fries were the same story - seasoned well, but tough. Nothing like the great ones at Yankee Stadium. When I get tough food I always wonder if they served me reheated leftovers from yesterday. For the cheesesteak, I ordered the "Authentic" which is supposed to come with your choice of cheese (Whiz/American/Provolone/Cooper Sharp/Ghost pepper jack); but I absentmindedly forgot to specify my choice and the server didn't ask me. It was only when the food came and I saw the Whiz when I realized. I would have appreciated a prompt so that I could have gotten Cooper Sharp. It was his first day so maybe he didn't know better. There was another server behind the bar who he was training under. I will give the servers props for giving me the combo price without me asking for it ($18 for cheesesteak, fries, and soda/water). But overall, stuff could have been better. The place was dead. I was one of three people in there but still felt ignored. There's a lot of TVs and a lot of beer options so I can see it being a good place to drink and watch a game. But the food is just ok. Very different than what I remembered.
