Onieals - Wall streeter burger - American Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

One of my go-to spots for excellent bar food in town. Burgers are always tasty although on the smaller side compared to some other places in town. Entrees are really good as well. Sometimes the service is kind of slow, but it's never bad service and the food will make up for it. Go with the black and blue burger, pancho villa burger, or chicken montrachet entree. read more

Everyone will tell you about the burgers, so yes, get the burgers the first couple of times you come here. They really are fantastic. Doesn't even matter which one. The things that don't get enough attention are just about everything else. Their wings are good, and their pastas are on point too. The gold of this place is the outdoor seating in the warm weather when you can look at the park and see the passers by. Fantastic location. read more

Onieals is always the best sport for a bloody and burger in Hoboken. The burgers never disappoint and the service is always great. Super chill vibes whether you're inside or outside. Don't forget to get a Bloody Mary, they have plenty of options to chose from! read more

Onieals - The Wall Streeter - American Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I have been coming here for years. At one point almost weekly. But today is the last day. They were extra extra slow. Every table was waiting drinks and food for way longer than reasonable. Management needs to hire more servers. When I said that to the server, he laughed at me. Ok, we are never coming back nor will we recommend this place. They get one star because I cannot submit the review without it. read more

Best burgers in town. The Turkey club is also amazing. The staff is so nice, and always willing to make accommodations. Great place for wine with friends, date night, or casual time with the family. They have a disco ball, live music, and great outdoor seating. Their martinis are amazing, $8 wine night. And get vodka sauce on the chicken parm or mozzarella sticks. read more

Went here for outdoor dining and thought the food was really good. It was a little windy but the heat lamps helped keep us warm. I kept reading reviews about their burgers so of course had to get one and thought it lived up to its reputation. Ready to try their other burgers next time I go back! read more

If you're in Hobo and faced with the 'where should we eat' debate, then I definitely suggest checking out Oneials. The vibe is casual and relaxed, the menu has got plenty of classic and easy to please options and the prices are fair. I came in with some pals on a Wednesday. Partly because we were hungry and needed some food, but largely because of their 1/2 off wine specials. We had a great experience, and I'd definitely come back again for a meal out in da 'boken. Although there was a bit of a wait for a table, live music and half priced wine at the bar made it easy to pass some time. All of the burgers sounded incredible, but unfortunately I'm **trying** to be healthy and ended up going with a spinach salad. The spinach was just about the only healthy part because the salad was smothered in bacon and goat cheese- oooopsies. The menu has a ton of options - everything from pasta dishes to crab cakes. Regardless of what food mood you are in, you are guaranteed to find something that you want to eat. Hoboken has a ton of great dining options, but make sure not to overlook Onieals! If an hour wait on a Wednesday night is any indicator, the food here is pretty damn good. I'll definitely be back in on a weekend to try out some brunch. read more

Onieals - Spinach salad - American Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Went in for a late Wednesday night dinner. Thankfully the kitchen is open till 11pm on Wednesday's. Outdoor seating is only available till 10:50, so my boyfriend and I grabbed a seat inside. For drinks, he ordered a whiskey sour with four roses (whopping $10!) and I stuck with the Summer Rye. Nice pour. The two of us split a cup of French Onion Soup (cheesier and just as flavorful as last time!) and fried mozzarella balls. There was a thin layer of breading and a ton of mozz, so it wasn't too heavy and really let you appreciate the fresh cheese. I wish the tomato sauce was a little more flavorful. For our main, we split the Onieals Fettuccine. As Janice would say: Oh. My. God! Just thinking about it is making me drool. We substituted the sun dried tomatoes for artichoke hearts at no additional cost. Even the pasta noodles were high quality and cooked to perfection. The sauce was so scrumptious my boyfriend and I were debating whether or not we should order bread to sop it all up. All the while we were bopping our heads to the music -- really great playlist. Even had to whip out Shazam. Again, I truly recommend you stop by ONieals for dinner. If you're not looking to sit in the main bar area, you can choose outdoor seating by the park or a cozy, romantic nook in the back room with dim lighting and candles. See you there! read more

Damn! USED to be my favorite burger. First time back in a couple years after moving out of Hoboken and am sad to say I see a noticeable decline in the burger. Change in bun the most obvious culprit (was brioche if I remember correctly now potato roll). Bun quashed down to paper this which I hate. Burger didn't have that flattop char I remember either. Not a bad burger by any means but very run of the mill now. read more

Perfect place for a date now that I think about it. I went on a Saturday night with a group of friends at dinnertime. It was about an hour wait. They let us sit at the bar if we were drinking. A tad annoyed about that. The menu is American food, the top item is the burgers so I had to try it for myself. It was delicious! Our waitress was very playful with us after I had no clue what I wanted. read more

Good food but embarassing service that ruins the experience. Waited nearly an hour for our entrees.

Food was really just average and service was mediocre. It was a disappointment last time we went since I remembered the place as being great years ago when I went for the first time. read more

Onieals is a solid American dining option in hoboken. My husband absolutely loves their burgers and usually orders one every time we visit. Occasionally, he will switch it up for a steak dinner, which is a lot of food for a good price. I personally enjoy their penne vodka. They add sun dried tomatoes to it, which really adds a nice pop of flavor. If you're into cocktails, they also do these well. I love the mint tea- warning these go down easy, and I also have had some fun brunch drinks as well. This place is cozy, no frills food, and we always leave with our tummies satisfied. read more

The food was terrible. No flavor at all, would not go here again. We did not feel well after and had to go to another restaurant since we didn't even eat our food. Friendly staff though! read more

Super good fries and burgers! They also open very late so it's a good late night stop!

Just tried this place tonight and was a bit disappointed. I had the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. The chicken was paper thin, to the point that you really couldn't taste the chicken. It was the same with my Daughters Cajun Chicken Sandwich. For $15.50 per sandwich, I would expect a decent piece of chicken. Service was ok. Friendly yet pretty slow. Not sure I would ever try again. read more

I've been a regular here for a while now but the service has been so bad lately that I think I'm done. I would have given 1 star after the way I've been treated by 1 person in particular, but aside from him it's been ok. I'm fed up now, though, so I'll be getting burgers from somewhere else. read more

I had almost forgotten this place but luckily I stopped in this past Sunday for a late brunch and was lucky enough to get a table in the bar area. It's more fun than the dining room and you can catch the game. Started with the buffalo shrimp. Great buffalo sauce, not too overpowering and lightly fried with no breading which is the key. Anyone worth knowing doesn't eat breaded wings. Great blue cheese dressing too which isn't always a given. Next course was the Shepard's pie. Great flavors. Very simple well seasoned ground beef, peas, carrots, and perfect whipped potato char on top. Near perfection. Not too filling which is nice. It comes with a side of seasoned sautéed spinach. A nice touch because we really needed something green on the table. Dessert: an Irish coffee with Jameson. It's the perfect winter warm up meal at a true hoboken mainstay. Service is always great. This plays does food right. read more

Onieals - The holy trinity - American Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I popped in for some wings and a burger. The wings were huge, and cooked perfectly. The sauce had a good nibble to it, but didn't bite. The burger was juicy and cooked to a perfect medium rare. Loved the laid back atmosphere. Can't wait to stop in again. read more

The food is good and the place is casual and comfortable. Service is okay. I had to ask for a glass for my beer and when I eventually got one the glass was warm like it had just been washed. Not the best temperature for beer. The server was friendly but other than filling a water glass he didn't ask us if we needed anything or how the food was, which is unusual. read more

Solid brunch experience. We had the Eggs Sardeaux and Irish breakfast. Both hearty and filling. read more

Onieals doesn't even deserve one star, but unfortunately, i can't post unless i rate this awful excuse for a restaurant. To start, we asked the hostess to put us at a table outside. She claimed that there weren't any tables available, but found one and placed us directly next to the trash. Our homophobic and racist server did not greet my girlfriend and I; he served us water in filthy glasses. After some observing, it seemed that he treated his other tables with respect, but because we are women of color, that same respect was not given to us. I ordered a Moscow Mule, he slammed it on the table, i took one sip and it tasted like tap water mixed with flat ginger beer. Because that was more than enough to leave a bad taste in our mouths, we got up and left. The server then chased us down the block asking for a tip for a drink we did not even take more than one sip of. He proceeded to harass us. He called us "a joke" after we called him out on his blatant racism and homophobia. @ the manager - he was the only server outside. Do better. Zero stars ! read more

The best place for food ,drinks and music Ive always had the best experience when here, Service is great waitress is always tentative and prices are reasonable affordable and overall great comforting food and atmosphere. If I had to choose anything from the menu of which is the best I really can't, since everything is delish. And if I must say since I gone there serval times I practically had tried everything and every time Im there I try something new. I really have no complaints. The only down fall about this place is they don't have a dessert menu option which I always love to enjoy after a good meal is a nice piece of cake. read more

Place is always great and consistent - great neighborhood spot with really good food. Also helps that the staff is always so nice! 5 star for me. read more

Great chicken Parm. Nice atmosphere. Solid beer selection. Will definitely go back as menu looks good all around.

I love a good burger and a pub that isn't touristy! Hoboken parking is what it is so, we took an Uber but, there was street parking if you could get over the piles of snow. The front interior is pub style with a long bar and a couple high tops when you walk in but, the back section has classy bistro tables and a nice ambiance. This would be a nice business lunch or date spot with a great view of the park area in the square. I ordered the Cajun burger cooked medium and served with fries. The burger temperature was spot on and I applaud the beef quality that they use. The Cajun sauce was so, good I was dipping my fries in it. I can definitely recommend this but, the fries were a little lack luster. My guy being the sharing guy that he is let me try his Penne Vodka and 5 stars on that. You know when the sauce is sticking to the pasta that you are in for a treat. The pricing and level of service are both good and I think I will stop in to have a couple beers and another burger next time that I am in town. read more

I love Onieals. What an extra perk living a few apartments down from such a great casual place. The burgers are amazing and I pretty much get the wall streeter every time. French fries are always crispy hot and delicious. the penne vodka also has a taste like no other restaurant I have been too- so good!! I ventured out the other day and got the Cajun chicken sandwich which had so much flavor. Staff is always super friendly too! read more

Good overall spot, off the strip ("Wash") so it draws a better, more local, crowd, which is nice Pros: Right by the library and park, you can make a day out of it without leaving a two block radius Good food, and not just good for a bar, but actually good food in the back or in the bar We like the nachos and sandwiches Nice servers, fast and attentive service with a smile Not bad prices without specials Cool ambiance and nice decorations, we love the art work in the back Nice outdoor seating if it is nice out Bread is really good, get oil with Parmesan cheese people! Good music Cons: Cold in the winter, they need to jack up the heat or seal the windows/doors better Kind of small, fills up fast, and could use some more TVs for the big games So yea, I am a fan, a Hoboken staple read more

Onieals - Burger & fries - American Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

I've tried O'niel's for the bar, outdoor seating at brunch, and the restaurant for dinner. All three have been good. The bar is small and intimate. Perfect for a down the street from your doorstep kinda of place. Bartenders are alert and a napkin on a pint still saves your seat here. Brunch is amazing. I can't get over how good the turkey sandwich with avocado was. Became my favorite turkey sandwich in Hoboken. Perfect mix of turkey, pickles, mayo, avocado, and toasted rye. Pasta for dinner here has always been good. Nothing over cooked coming out of this kitchen. Also the staff here is very friendly. They have always been kind to requests and don't mind making sure your happy. Always a great spot to stop off at while doing the rounds around Hoboken on a Friday or Saturday night. read more

I came to Onieals on a Thursday night for a quick bite to eat. I was quickly seating in the back of the restaurant. In the back it offers a very warm and intimate atmosphere. In the front of the restaurant there is the bar area with a couple high top tables. It would seem like a perfect place to grab a drink with friends. Onieals are known for their burgers and boy are they good. I think you can not go wrong with their burgers and also the portions size are generous. I ordered my burger medium-well and the chef cooked it perfect! After our initial order it took about 10-13 minutes to get our food. The wait time was not bad at all because they gave us bread and our waiter kept checking up on us to make sure we were ok. Also, i must note that the prices here are very reasonable. I would highly recommend Onieals to anyone looking for a good burger from a small intimate local spot. I would rate Onieals as follows: Food Quality is 4 Stars, Service is 4 Stars, Atmosphere is 4 Stars and Price is 4 Stars. The views expressed are of my own and are my true personal experience at this establishment. My personal experience may not reflect this actual establishment, their quality or someone else's experience at the establishment. read more

Four months later, I am finally making good on my New Year's resolution to Yelp more (at all.) Here goes nothing! Onieals is one of my favorite spots in Hoboken. Whether it's for brunch, lunch, drinks and apps (wine night Wednesday!) or dinner, Onieals never fails to disappoint. The food is always delicious and drinks are generally on point too. I'm not a huge fan of their bloodies, but they serve manmosa's (the oh so delicious marriage of OJ, vodka and blue moon) so it's not an issue for me. Recently, I celebrated a monumental occasion at Onieals. I've been a fleeting vegetarian (fish eater on and off for the last few years) for eleven years (!) and when I decided to rejoin the world of the burger eaters, Onieals is where I choose to enjoy my first. This was no small decision - both Minetta tavern and Bar Boulud were in the running - but it was unequivocally the right one. As many reviewers have stated before me, the burgers at Onieals are AMAZING! My current favorite is the Californian with cheddar instead of swiss, but I've been steadily making my way through their impressive list. While I am sticking with the cow eating for now, the veggie burgers here are also phenomenal and will continue to be a part of my regular order rotation! read more

One of the worst services I've ever experienced... crazy how they have 4 stars. The rude server def ruins the restaurant's rep.

A wasted meal for us. Terrible service and execution, I almost walked out. We visited on Wed July 4th mid afternoon and Onieals was lightly filled as we were seated immediately. We quickly placed orders for drinks and meals. Our drinks made it back to us quickly but then we waited for 30 minutes for our meals. A salad....and a burger; seriously? Should've been 12 minutes, max! 30 minutes of just sitting there with no interaction from our server to address the lengthy wait. Unacceptable in my opinion. I got up to try and find him and when I did he then explained that its a small kitchen and they just got slammed with tickets but he'd check for me. A few minutes later the meals arrived. The salad was lovely. The burger was basically raw in the middle and I after 3 bites I just tossed in the towel and asked for the check. 30 minute wait for a meal that was poorly executed - that's kinda where I draw the line. They didn't charge me for my meal, I walked elsewhere and enjoyed a nice lunch. read more

I come here ALL the time for lunch and take out Chicken Parm (1/3/21) Love to ask the cook, how does one burn chicken parmesan?! read more

Oh, I just love it here, especially during the holiday season. You can find O'nieals by the pretty tree on the corner of 4th and Park, which is donned in white lights year round. How can you not love that? The vibe here is awesome. It's small, especially tight in the dining area, but not enough to ruin a meal. The food is consistently good and the staff is super friendly. Whether you go for a four-hour brunch with the girls or a romantic dinner with your date, you will not be disappointed. This place has it all - burgers, seafood, pastas, meats. There is a huge selection of delicious food to choose from and the prices are more than reasonable. They serve up great beers and wines and an atmosphere that will make you feel cozy and welcomed. And in the summer, there's outdoor seating right by the pretty white lighted tree :) read more

Stopped in at 1:20 AM for some late night eats after a long night drinking. It is a small place and mostly the front of the bar was still open and the back was closed, but it was clear there was still enough people scattered in this restaurant. Ordered the Nachos with chicken and jalapeno cheese fries, um it was amazing!! I know that although we were drinking it may not be the best account but I was still sober and we were just snacking before we ended our night and literally it may be the best nachos that I have had in my life. Chicken nachos, piled HIGH with guacamole, sour cream over a mound of nacho chips and cubed chicken pieces. The whole dish was clearly assembled then tossed into the oven so that all the cheese would melt nicely over the chips, it was literally amazing! Not sure why it was so good, but maybe it was the quantity of food, cheese, and guac or maybe I was just so surprised by the dish at this random bar. Cheese fries were piping hot, cheesy and very nice. Would definitely order both items again the next time I am here. Drinks were standard quite nice, nothing to really complain about. Prices are standard for Hoboken, was just ecstatic to be pleasantly surprised before the end of the night. read more

My boyfriend lives a block away from Onieals, so we always pass it while walking to or from our cars. It's always packed and after reading yelp reviews, it makes sense why! When we were looking for a place to eat dinner for our date night, Onieals was at the top of our list. The seating is very limited, but thankfully we came on a Sunday night and it wasn't very crowded. We were seated in the dining room and given menus to make our choices for dinner. We were sitting for 15 minutes before asking if we wanted anything from the bar and if we were ready to order - this is where they lost a star for me. We saw waitresses constantly visiting other tables, but felt that our waitress had neglected us. We didn't even get bread for our table. When we were finally seen, we ordered their hummus and The Wall Streeter burger with monterey jack cheese instead of cheddar. The hummus came out with warm, lightly toasted pita, which was perfect since we were starting to develop a strong sense of hunger by this time. The hummus very blended, so if you're into chunkier hummus, you might not like the texture/consistency. I usually like chunkier hummus, but found the balance of acid with the chick peas to be perfect. My burger came out exactly as ordered and the bacon was crisp to perfection. I understand now why people claim that Onieals has the best burgers in Hoboken. Overall, I would come back for dinner the next time I was in the mood for a burger in the neighborhood. If the service was better, this would have easily been a 5 star review from me! read more
