This place is tremendously delicious! I tried out the brunch selection: the shredded beef brisket paired w/ Yukon gold potato hash and I also had a taste of the chorizo bocadilla de tortilla - dee-lish! They offer a brunch special for $17.95 which includes a Mimosa or Bellini. They also have a fine selection of wine and bourbon! Try 'Angel's Envy' -- the waiter agreed, he sure was envious of that bourbon choice. I hope to comeback and try their dinner selection, until then I'll extend 4-stars oppose to 5. buen provecho, Leilani read more

Interesting menu that changes seasonally, lovely ambiance, and attentive staff. I really enjoyed the short rib. Tender, tasty, and served beautifully with an interesting preserved cabbage and spaetzle. My friends ordered the pork shank (tender and flavorful!) and the sweet potato gnocchi (also nice). The banana cream pie was actually a nicely sized tartlet with banana cream in the bottom, milk chocolate ganache coating and a small dollop of toasted marshmallow. Not too much, not too sweet, and all around delicious. read more

This restaurant was a phenomenal experience, the food to the service were all excellent and the atmosphere/decor was gorgeous inside. My family and I loved the dinner from start to finish from the appetizers (crab cakes, patatas bravas, mussels, croquettes, Brussels sprouts) to the entrees (we ordered the pastas dishes and the local bass). We ended the night with their housemade desserts which was the perfect way to finish the night. I highly recommend trying satis bistro! read more

Wanted to give this place a try a second time as the first time the food was very meh and thought maybe it was just an off night for them but the food again was very disappointing. Service and wine is great. read more

Went on a weekend for brunch with first time outdoor dining after COVID outbreak. It was such a pleasant experience!! I loved how this place is following all the rules and regulations and all staff wearing masks. I felt bit hesitant eating outside since we are still in the middle of pandemic, however, I felt relieved when I arrived and see them following 6ft rules! Also the food was still amazing as always! Really enjoyed the time! read more

Delicious food. Portions may be not so generous though. So we ordered an additional dish. Quality food. Would be visiting here again. Has decent vegetarian options read more

Was here with 7 others, pretty solid food. We had some cocktails and appetizers while waiting prior to dinner and one of the Chardonnays I believe during dinner. In terms of Cocktails, I had the Gypsy Dance which among other things came with Sour Cherry Palinka (a Hungarian Fruit Brandy) and some sour cherry juice with some other things. It was quite sour and quite delicious. I recommend it if you like other sour alcohol drinks and especially if you like sour cherry juice (like Tamek or related.) An image of the drink is here. http://ink361.com/app/users/ig-1213402194/satisbistro/photos/ig-1006581212197834629_1213402194 Someone else had a bourbon drink which was listed on the bottom. It was good also though i think my drink was more creative. Someone else had an Allagash white/witte which is always good and someone had a Peroni. The beer selection here in general is on point and not super expensive though their USA selection could be bigger but a good German/Belgian beer selection, especially for it being more of a wine/spirits place. We shared for appetizers/while waiting Patatas Bravas 8- Crispy Potatoes, Pimentón, Cumin Aioli, Scallions Probably the best of the three. Solid. Quite similar to other Spanish places I have been to but with better quality spices. Quite addictive. 3.8 Lentils de Puy 10- Rye Berry and Frisée Salad, Caraway Goat Cheese, Pear and Pomegranate Dressing Very good. Nice and nutty. Very refreshing. 3.7 Winter Greens Caesar Salad 9.5- Parmigiano Garlic Croutons The normal. I wouldn't say amazing or poor. It's somewhere in the middle. 3.1 Mains: I had (and someone else:) Butternut Squash Wellington 22 Mushroom Braised Kale Duxelles, Boucheron and Truffled Porcini Demi, Upland Cress and Spiced Pepitas Yep, I went vegetarian for once, and oh my it was delicious. I am not sure exactly how you add "Boucheron" into a demiglace but the sauce was nice and mushroomy (not much truffle, probably just a lil' truffle oil?.) The pastry shell was nicely rich and the filling was quite good. It tasted a bit cheesy in some sections which was kind of surprising as I don't see one listed. I guess it was the buttery texture combined with the rich inside. The squash was good though I expected more of mashed for texture and to make it so there was more of it. A lot of the bites didn't have squash but I really didn't mind. The cress salad/spiced pumpkin seeds (aka pepitas) were fine. Quite a rich dish also. 4.0. I tried: Housemade Ricotta Gnocchi 25- Braised Escarole, Cannellini Beans, Garlic Confit The Gnocchi were not super good. As a lot of other people seem to have said, they are way too thick for their own good. No pleasant plumpness like in good Gnocchi. No real contrast. I would say to change the recipe but so many people have posted the same thing that well, it looks like they won't. The sauce is OK but doesn't help 2.2. Braised Short Rib 26- Sauce au Poivre, Chorizo and Goat Cheese Mashed Potatoes I only tried a very little piece of short rib with a very little bit of the potatoes. The short rib was fine (maybe very slightly dry) and the potatoes were good. I won't rate it as I didn't get too big of a bite. I did not try: Someone had chicken and liked it. Two others had steak and enjoyed it (steak frites are steak frites.) The food is somewhere in the high 3s with a good alcohol selection and very nice service. Solid low 4. read more

Had a fantastic outdoor dining experience on a Friday evening at Satis Bistro. Service was attentive without being intrusive, and were kind enough to set us up at the bar after we had completed our meal and the skies opened up on us! Truly a lovely atmosphere, will be back again soon. read more

My girlfriend and I recently came to Satis for dinner for Hudson Restaurant Week. The atmosphere here is just fantastic. Satis has a nice spot on the corner in Paulus Hook with both indoor and outdoor seating. The indoors is quite small, but very nicely put together. We chose to sit outside as the weather was just too nice to pass up. We started off with appetizers - I ordered the patatas bravas and my girlfriend ordered the scotch egg. Both were very flavorful. I would almost say the patatas bravas were a bit over-seasoned, but they were still very good. I had never had a scotch egg before, so I don't have any comparison, but I also really enjoyed it and would definitely order a scotch egg again. Moving onto the main course, I got the trofie a la genovese pasta dish, which was trofie pasta with arugula-basil pesto, corn, charred bell pepper, and green beans with toasted pine nuts and goat milk cheese. It was a very unique dish and full of different flavors. I don't recall having a similar dish in the past, and I really enjoyed it. My girlfriend got the cast iron roasted half chicken in bourbon pan gravy and polenta with broccoli, pecan, bacon, and smoked blue cheese dressing and said it was fantastic. Lastly, for dessert I ordered the sweet corn panna cotta, blueberry and cornmeal shortbread and my girlfriend ordered the banana chocolate cream pie. The panna cotta comes highly recommended by me. This panna cotta was absolutely perfect - a great balance between sweet and savory. My girlfriend also enjoyed her dessert. Satis can be quite expensive if you aren't catching a deal like Restaurant Week, but in my opinion it's worth it to give it a try. You can find quite a few dishes that aren't too common at other restaurants, and judging by the meal I had they know how to make them right. A solid four stars from me - I definitely recommend it and I will most likely return for a special occasion or other event that warrants spending a little more for a nice meal. read more

Satis was the venue for my wife's baby shower and Satis delivered, which is high praise coming from my mother! "We stressed trying to present a perfect party , your staff calmly handled our last minute changes.  All of us, guests and hostesses were able to  enjoy the celebration.  The food was exactly as ordered and made a lovely presentation. Delicious and healthy too! It was a pleasure doing business with you.   Thank you again for your gracious attentiveness." read more

I went to Satis Bistro on a weeknight for wine and cheese. The full menu looked great but I was only there to snack this time. This place is a hidden gem in Jersey City! They had a large wine selection, and plenty of cheeses and meats to choose from. The decor is modern/rustic, and the atmosphere was very relaxed and chill. They also have a cute outdoor seating area that would be great for a warmer night. It's in the Paulus Hook area which is beautiful and relatively quiet, perfect for a nice meal or drinks outside. The food and service were both excellent and I will definitely be going back! read more

Had a great dinner here with friends over the weekend. We ordered chilled celery root and leek soup which was delicious. Main course was the braised oxtail with snap peas and mascarpone risotto, and a side of the braised escarole, white beans, and garlic. Flavors were just right and on point. The celery-leek soup was a pinch over-salted for my personal taste, although the rest of my group thought the salt level was fine. For dessert, we shared the zucchini and almond cake and the strawberry shortcake sundae, and both were delicious. The strawberry shortcake sundae was my favorite of the two. I got a glass of white wine and my friends shared the red sangria which they enjoyed. I highly recommend Satis and especially look forward to coming back and trying some of the cheeses and charcuterie. read more

Thanks for a wonderful evening as we celebrated oir birthdays together. The food was tasteful and delivered with the satisfaction of the customers in mind. The staff were so friendly, cordial and charming. My wife and I couldn't contain our happiness since we were also celebrating a secret milestone that I blurted out the purpose of our celebration to our host.

This is such a cute bistro that we happened to discover unexpectedly! We were returning from a rather long bike ride in the Liberty state park on a Sunday and stopped here for a drink. The menu seemed so tempting that we ended up having a full meal! We ordered the cacio e pepe and the french toast. Both were delicious and the exact carb overload that we needed after the workout. The staff was very nice and accommodating. I would love to return for dinner as this place looks like the perfect date spot! read more

Cute spot in jersey city. Food was great but service was slow. Tried to go for restaurant week but it ended the day before. Pretty crowded and loud. I had the potatoes to start which was the best and the short rib entree. My friend had risotto which was also pretty good. I wouldn't rush to return tho. Maybe for a date. read more

For the price point, the food quality was average: - Calamari curry flavor was great, but came out cold - Braised Pork Shank was dry and bland - Hanger steak lacked the juiciness that I've seen with chimichurri sauce - Spaghetti e Vongole: bland, poor presentation Wine: great recommendation and price point for the 1/2 bottle Ambiance: Fantastic! Service: Great! Summary: Plenty of other restaurants in JC that I'll try before going back to this place which is 3 blocks from my apt building read more

My boyfriend and I recently went to Satis on a date night and it's a perfect spot for such. We started with the Bacon Wrapped Dates, which I would 100% recommend. They are drizzled in honey and stuffed with cabrales cheese - they are absolutely INCREDIBLE. We split a bottle of red wine and ordered the Risotto Gamberi and Braised Pork Shank as our entrees. The risotto was delicious, it comes with 3 large prawns but the prawns were almost a little too blackened to the point of burnt. The pork shank was delicious, I would highly recommend it as well. It was so tender, it falls right off the bone. We finished our dinner with the Creme Brûlée, which was also very yummy. Overall, a very pleasant meal. read more

We held our daughter & fiance's wedding shower at Satis Bistro on 8/29. I simply cannot say enough about this place. The restaurant is quaint & accommodating. The staff is fantastic, Laszlo & his team did a remarkable job. The food was great and the beyond sliders were beyond fantastic. We were getting compliments all day about the choice of venue for the shower. I highly recommend Satis Bistro for any event as well as everyday dining. Laurie G Howell NJ read more

Now bear in mind that it has been months since we dined here ... we're sorry but we check in and then forget to review (we're trying!) Satis had not been open a month when we stopped in during the winter restaurant week. A very fine meal followed, with lovely cheeses, sandwiches and gelato. Excluding the crotchety waiter who was groaning to his manager about "never working lunch again" it was a fine experience. Having munched at a few of the area spots we can say that it is certainly a stand out ... and kudos to the owners for taking a risk on this euro inspired bistro. read more

Truly an amazing meal. The service was top notch, the manager was welcoming and the wait staff took great care of our large table with ease. Every dish was prepared to perfection. I cannot wait to visit again! read more

I loved this place. My boyfriend and I came here with another couple for dinner on their recommendation. It was restaurant week when we came. Our service was friendly, and the atmosphere was perfect. We all had wine, and the restaurant week menu was 3 courses. Two of us had onion soup, and two of us had salads. Very fresh ingredients. For entrees, I had the gnocchi, which was phenomenal. Two people had the chicken with brussel sprites, and one of my friends had the short ribs. For dessert, some of us had gelato, and one of us had the creme brule. Nothing was disappointing about our dinner. We never felt rushed, and everyone loved their food. Absolutely plan to return. read more

Came here for a Friday night dinner with a group of 9 friends. I am torn giving it a 4-star as the appetizer were 6 stars and the entrees for me were little below 3-stars Shrimp with chorizo appetizer is a must try, solid rounded and balanced spicy flavor. The salumeria and cheese platters are great if you are into salamis and cheese(I love trying both). These guys take their meat seriously and I believe one can buy too. I don't recall all the dishes ordered but definately not to my expectations or should I say that I don't have a great exposure to French cuisine however didn't cut it for me. Verdict - Definitely a must visit place in JC. read more

I took my wife here for her birthday. We had reservations and I highly recommend making a reservation. The place was quite busy for a week night. Our table wasn't ready when we arrived so we waited by the bar area, I had a whiskey and my wife had an apple cider. The place is cozy with not a lot of privacy seating is quite close to each other. We both had the fish of the day and it was excellent. The dessert was very good as well. We both have been talking about going back there to try it out again, but just haven't gotten to it. read more

Totally a hidden gem. The dishes are so much better than many restaurants in New York includes Michelin star restaurants.

Just tried Satis for the first time yesterday. Lovely location, they open at 11 on Sunday's and it can get very busy so if you're driving get there early for a parking space. If you are a meat and cheese lover this is the place for you. Alas, my husband and I don't eat meat but the menu was marked with a leaf to indicate the vegetarian options which there were quite a few. The coffee is great, $3.50 bloody Mary's. Loved the creative additions to the usually boring French toast. The service was great and they seem to manage strollers and large parties pretty well. read more

The restaurant is located in a nice part of Jersey City. We choose Satis Bistro for Hudson Restaurant week. When we arrived, the restaurant was very busy. Both outdoor and indoor tables were filled. The inside of the restaurant did not seem to have plenty of seating, but on a nice day, there's lots of outdoor seating. Appetizer: I ordered the Papayas Bravas. When it arrived, the dish looked great, almost like a fancy version of Taco Bell's cheesy fiesta potatoes. Unfortunately, as good as the dish looked, it was unenjoyably very salty. However, the deviled scotch eggs my girlfriend ordered were delicious, but served with a very small portion. Entree: I ordered the Cast Iron Roasted Chicken. I did not care to much for the Broccoli salad, but the chicken was cooked perfectly. Although it was on the salty side once again, it was delicious. Dessert: The best part of the meal. My Sweet Corn Panna Cotta was had a great texture and taste. It was served with blueberry and cornmeal shortbread. Were it not for over salting, the experience at Satis Bistro was a pleasant one. read more

awesome vibe, good food and decent drinks. perfect for date night or a chill night out with friends. I prefer their brunch over dinner.

I am giving this place two stars for the ambiance and the waiter was very nice. I will say I was excited for this place because of the good reviews. Sadly was super dissapointed. First- my friend and order the patatas bravas. They brought just plain potatos on a plate- reminded us of the potatos they throw on the side with an omelette at a diner. Lacked flavor and server with mayo completely on the side. I ordered the pasta with carbonara sauce. I eat carbonara sauce very often- I was shocked by what they brought out to me. It literally tasted like pasta with just eggs-no other flavor at all. It was bizarre. Basically was scrambled eggs with pasta and inedible. Sent this back to get something else and got the squash entree. This was another massive let down. Another dish with zeo flavor. It tasted like microwaved squash. I barely was able to eat. I would not recommend this place. Maybe for drinks but definitely not for the food. read more

Awesome spot in jersey city! I took my hubby here for his birthday dinner and this place did not disappoint! The ambiance was very romantic and perfect for a date night. Our favorites were the formage & charcuterie, Patatas Bravas, and oxtail risotto. My hubby had the short rib - which was pretty good but a little too much peppercorn. We both decided the risotto was the best! I'm a huge fan of risotto and theirs had the perfect texture and a good helping of oxtail which I loved! We then just had gelato for dessert, in which the restaurant greeted my hubby happy birthday - lovely way to end our dining experience! Would definitely come back! read more

Meh. Food lacked flavor and was not served at the right temperature. Steak wasn't butchered properly, prawns were overcooked. Char was OK. Also, when selling a 1/2 bottle, present the bottle. read more

Greatly enjoyed our meal starting with the assorted cheese. Chef's choice. We had plenty of crusty bread with Manchego and 2 other cheeses we had to ask what they were. The waiter didn't know and went inside to find out. From where. He didn't know that either and went back inside again. I admired his enthusiasm but he should have known about the cheeses before he served them. All 3 of us had a pasta dish that was outstanding. The gnocchi were ricotta pillow light and filling. The kale pesto and cauliflower over my pasta was delicious as was the pasta with sausage and broccoli rabe. Wished it had more rapini. We will be back to enjoy the outdoor seating again. read more

What a great experience! My family was visiting from Atlanta and staying at the Hyatt Regency on the water. We took a walk to find a restaurant for dinner and stumbled upon Satis Bistro...lucky for us. The owner/manager was very friendly and talked to our party as we looked over the menu then set up a table for 7 without a reservation. Hospitality was perfect and the casual atmosphere was comfortable and inviting. I had the Grilled Pork Flatiron and couldn't have been happier...I was the first to finish my meal and contemplated ordering more as the meal was sooooo good! My family had everything else on the menu from the Bouillabaisse to the Pan Seared Duck Breast and they were as happy as I. You will not go wrong with this quaint bistro, I can't wait to go again. read more

Delicious food. Literally haven't had anything bad here ever, and I've been a bunch of times. The bacon wrapped dates are to die for, and every fish dish I've had has been expertly prepared. They have some really nice wines by the glass, and a cute underground bar space as well. We love to sit in their pretty outside area when the weather is nice. They also do a nice job with events. I went here for a friend's baby shower and the service was impeccable. read more
