I'm super stoked about The Hutton being in the Heights. It's located off of any main thorough-ways, which gives it a quaint neighborhood restaurant/bar feel. I've been a couple times now and service has been great. Both times I've been there I had the Hutton burger. It was really nice and juicy. As far as drinks, I've had an old fashioned (it was done perfectly) and a malbec, which was pretty good. Other things to note: they have a yuge (ha!) patio. That's going to be poppin' in the spring and summer. Also, I appreciate that the water in the bathroom turns warm/hot. I really hate it when you're at a restaurant and you only get freezing ass cold water to wash your hands with. It's the little things... read more

Meh. Nice place, nice decor, and nice location. We went for the NYE prefixed meal. $40 and is was ok. Serving size was rather small. Was full for dinner but not overwhelming. Unfortunately the service was very slow. Took awhile to get menus. Asked for bread and never got it. Getting beers was an ongoing issue. We had to order multiple times and they would come one at a time. Toward the end of dinner, 9ish, before bar package crew started and we were rushed out. Waiter just swung by and dropped the check on our table. Apparently we were done drinking. Bill was $310 with tip for 4 people and only two of us were drinkers. Hear good things about brunch and will probably try it out again. Have fun. read more

Last night at the Hutton, we had such a great experience our server Josh was top shelf. Great timing, good suggestions and great personality. Me and girl had a good time definitely would recommend this place for anyone looking for a low key - date night with good vibes read more

I highly recommend the Ricotta Gnocchi, definitely worth the calories. Their cocktails were also superb, specifically the "fresh to death"

The reviews don't lie! Food presentation and the taste is good; we got the skirt steak and sweet fried chicken along with onion rings and octopus as an appetizer. Octopus and skirt steak were our favorites, both were charred very nicely; the onion rings were delicious also!! The fried chicken a bit too saucy for my taste but very satisfied in the end. read more

Very nice addition to the JC Heights area.Good drink menu and beer selection and nice ambiance plus they have outdoor seating with TV's.The food is also pretty good.My only complaint is that the menu doesn't have many basic dishes.Most dishes are a little different than usual but sometimes in a bad way.They have also changed a the menu a couple of times since they opened . Other than that it's a really nice place. read more

I have so much love for The Hutton. I hope I'm not biased because I'm so excited to have this place in our neighborhood, but the food and drinks are on point and the owners are lovely. The beet salad is great. The vegan squash ravioli is delicious, and the small portion is more than enough for one person to have as a meal. The Irish grilled cheese will become a constant strain on my waistline. The cauliflower steak could use a little bit of refining, but it's also a pretty solid choice. I'm excited for them to start doing brunch mid November. The Hutton Mary was a lifesaver the day after a night of too much drinking. I also want to point out that the outdoor space is a rare gem in The Heights. It's huge, and, unlike downtown, not overcrowded with tons of people all looking to dine and drink outdoors. Really, really happy this place is in our neighborhood. We've been missing a solid bar food option since we moved here, and The Hutton more than fills that void. read more

I live in the western Slope heights, I was curious about this place, nice bar, super cool outdoor area with huge tree in the middle Most creative outdoors ever Good bye downtown Hello Slope !!!! read more

Service, food and drinks it's all great!! little hidden gem in the Heights! cool bar and very awesome out door space. Looks like it would cool to host a party or at least grab a group of friends to hang out for summer brunch. read more

Came here for the first time last night with my husband. We live down the street and have been excitedly awaiting the opening of this place! Coming from Brooklyn, we have been missing a nice neighborhood brunch/bar & dinner spot and I think The Hutton is will fill that void. It looks beautiful inside. A large bar with a nice selection of cocktails and beers, and a good amount of regular dinner seating. I got the 225 smash cocktail which I enjoyed. Fresh muddled fruits in drinks are my favorite. The food menu was large with a good variety of options to try. We ordered off the vegan menu and got the butternut squash ravioli, which was excellent, and the cauliflower steak which was also great. Both had great flavor and were served hot. It was also a nice sized portion. One of the owners, Leah, introduced herself to us and she was very kind and welcoming. We had a great experience here and are so excited this is in The Heights! Can't wait to come back here for brunch :) read more

Nice little local gastropub. Good food and a great crowd but it gets too crowded here on Friday and Saturday nights.

Came here on a random Sunday Night for a quick cocktail and some grub. We were greeted quickly and since there were open tables, spots at the bar, and high tables available we were told to sit anywhere we wanted. The inside is really nice. Cozy meets trendy kinda place. We sat toward the back and ordered cocktails first. My bf got a Fresh to Death and I got a Grapefruit Ciaprihna. Both were so delicious! We ordered the lemon fries, Brussel sprouts, kale Cesar and the burrata. The lemon fries were ok. It needed more lemon and maybe a garlic aioli on the side to dip. Just my personal preference. The Brussel sprouts were good, just wish they were a little crispier. The Kale salad was not worth it. It was dry and we had to ask for extra dressing. The burrata was very flavorful. It was a small portion but it was pretty good. Does this mean I've given up on this place? Not at all. They have a beautiful outdoor area and I would definitely come here in the summer for cocktails. I also want to give their brunch a try and hopefully that will increase my rating. Overall I really enjoyed the drinks and the atmosphere but the food just needs to be tweaked a little more. Give it a try! read more

Stopped by yesterday for The Hutton's soft opening. We waited days, counting down to when we'd be able to see this place for ourselves, the heights community could not have been more excited. We were not disappointed. From the well thought-out wine/beer menu to the creative cocktail recipes and the amazing food selection; this place has already set the bar for all restaurants in JC Heights! The environment was warm and welcoming. The interior of the place is beautiful. It looks like a lot of the original design was kept intact, which I appreciated. Their outdoor patio is absolutely gorgeous. You must see it for yourself! The proprietors walked around the restaurant, bought everyone their first drink on the house. They were friendly and obviously excited to have their new restaurant open. My boyfriend and I tried the Hutton's take on a Grilled Cheese and we loved it. The flavor of the sandwich could have been a little more even throughout but beside that it was great. The service from the staff was alright. Some servers didn't seem to have much experience or might have been a bit nervous. I hope they follow the model their bosses are setting by being friendly, open and making eye contact with customers. We enjoyed a few drinks throughout the afternoon and I believe their Smash 225 is my new favorite cocktail. The ginger beer and Jack Daniels combination is so smooth and full of flavor. Ian and Leah: welcome to the Heights! We've been waiting for you!! read more

I went for brunch and had the smoked salmon toast...it was delishhh! I would definitely go back. read more

My friend and I live near McGinley Square (JC) but came here on a Monday night to have a beer and check out the new spot. It was a good crowd, not too busy, not too quiet. The place occupies a visible corner on one of the tree-lined residential streets of JC Heights. As an architect, it is very clear that the place was tastefully and meticulously renovated by the owners. From a nice terrazzo floor, to the exposed tin ceiling (maybe original?), to lots of rich wood tones and exposed brick walls. I took a peek at the back terrace, there is a generous space with a majestic old tree as the canopy. We will have to wait until next summer to see what a great place to hang out it will be. - Good beer selection (tried a local beer, NJ beer co.'s abbey ale, and a seasonal choice-- dogfish punkin' ale) - Very tasty burger, ordered medium, included a side fries. A savory hint of bacon, probably blended into the ground patty. - Music playing in the background, but good selection of tunes. - Attentive service. - An inviting place, with a wide variety of drink and food choices. Overall, a good value, and definitely plan to go back. The burger was so good, it will be hard to venture out to try other highlights from the menu! Thanks! read more

Definitely the best burger in the Greater New York Area. Make sure you upgrade to the lemon fries.

Absolutely incredible!!! Needed a nice dinner place on short notice in Jersey City and we were stressing that the place would be super packed on a Friday night. Thankfully, there was no wait for a table...and honestly there should have been a wait because this place was AMAZING!!!! My mom and I decided to share three small tapas-style plates, and that was such a good call. We ordered the carrot tempura, honey ginger cauliflower wings, and everything seasoned pita w burrata. Damnit everything was AMAZING. I wish I could douse every food I eat in the honey ginger sauce and I never want to eat a regular carrot stick again. Sizewise, portions were actually huge and definitely could have been shared across three people. The host and waitress who helped us all night were extremely nice and made the experience that much better. Thankfully I just moved to Jersey City so now I can come here all the time!! read more

The Hutton - New American Near Me - Jersey City, New Jersey

My 1st time visiting this little gem.. The ambiance is very nice with music that's not to loud as to overpower a conversation. Flatscreens, dim lighting, and the staff very welcoming & on top of servicing their guests.. The food was amazing. I had the salmon with purée sweet potatoes.. That chef is good b/c that salmon was cooked to perfection. It's small inside but it has a homey kinda vibe. I will definitely be back.. read more

Came here with the whole family for dinner. Ordered a bunch of things to share. Everything was delicious! We got grilled octopus, Jerk clams, PEI Mussels, Today's homemade pasta, Prosciutto wrapped salmon, and Brussels sprouts. Great atmosphere, great service. You gotta check it out! read more

Let's start with the service, Matt our waiter was very attentive to us despite the place being packed. He managed his time and ensured that we were taken care of. We had a high boy table that wasn't too sturdy. I really appreciated that Matt fussed with the table until it was sturdy and ready for us to throw down with some delicious grub. The so called "small"plate appetizers were actually a nice sized. They were awesome!!!! We had the grilled octopus. It was tender and savory. Enough for two to share. The smashed avocado had an egg and salad. Delicious I definitely recommend. We had short rib sandwich with sweet plantains. Who would've thought of that mix. Delicious!!! The gnocchi was as one of the best I've had in a couple of years. The portions are what we call "Jersey Portions" very generous and it's one of he pluses of living in Jersey. This was our first and definitely not our last time here. Every one should experience this food!!! read more

The food was good, very tasty. Service was good. I have one quibble. They substituted some kind of pasta instead of the creamed spinach that was on the menu, without informing me. My son ordered baby back spareribs. He got, instead, a portion of spareribs. Strange. read more

Favorite place! I have lunch with them every week. Soups are just something. I recommend!

Great drinks, food and atmosphere. I go here frequently for the dinner and drinks. I have had many of their entrees and all are good. They usually have weekly specials. My favorite is the mussels which are outstanding. read more

The food was spectacular. A creative menu with perfectly executed dishes. We started with a very tender grilled octopus with bread cubes soaked in ancho chili with beans. The other appetizer was unctuous pork belly on buns with a miso sauce and greens. Entrees were a wonderful dish of mussels in a smoked tomato sauce; and two duck legs in a BBQ sauce with roasted squash, garlic confit crispy kale and candied nuts. Dessert was roasted strawberries with strawberry gelato and hazelnuts with chocolate. Special drink menu was also inventive. It was pricey, but all dishes had very ample portions. Service was very friendly and top notch and no wait for food. read more

I was really excited when this place opened as the area needed a place like this. Unfortunately. I did not enjoy what I ordered as it taste like full on bacon grease. The fries were great, and my friends food was good according to her. She did mention she didn't enjoy the bacon in place of ham in her eggs Benedict but nothing too crazy. The ambiance is super awesome and the coffee was good. I will try this place again for dinner. Seems pricey for the area but hey, they have rent to pay too so I get it. The dinner dishes look way more appealing and they have daily soups which I look forward to Trying. Maybe I'll update my review once I tried it for dinner. read more

The lunch today was awesome the special grilled cheese with bacon was super yummy and side salad with mustard dressing and the jack and ginger drinks was on point, husband enjoyed his grilled chicken and we had bao pork buns which are to die for thanks to the chef read more

Had brunch here and it was such a great vibe with even better food! Will definitely return.

nice vibe decent service menu had alot of choices lively bar ... food was presented well and was good quality , but i didnt really enjoy the tastes of the endive salad or the gnocchi. read more

Really like the atmosphere, great staff, delicious apps and brunch, good cocktails, gorgeous backyard with great layout. There's a reason it's always packed! One thing I'll say, the chicken platter isn't worth $24 dollars. For three pieces of unseasoned fried chicken and a handful of fries, next time I'll skip it and get Hollywood fried chicken on the way home. read more

I came here twice, first time I ordered beer and the pumpkin tamale. YUMMMMMYYYY. They had no problem making it vegan for me. Great drinks and vibes. Also outdoor seating in the back. read more

Love this place, it's quaint and the drinks are great. Have enjoyed breakfast, lunch and dinner here, they are all great dishes. Definitely recommend. read more

The food was amazing. The atmosphere was nice the staff are very welcoming. I should've taken a photo of my grilled octopus but I just dived into the food so quickly. The white beans and some type of red sauce on the octopus was delicious. I had a side of French fries which was also amazing. I definitely recommend this place to other. It also gets crowded after 5 on Saturdays. This place is a kinda of a big deal. I can't wait to go back again to have the same meal. read more

I enjoyed my brunch in Hutton. The french toast and eggs Benedict were amazing. Overall a good experience.

Sincerely great food all around! But I would say some of the foods are absolutely overpriced The fact that a burger was 50 bucks is insane. I can understand you guys take pride in making quality foods for your customers yet the pricing should be reevaluated. You're located in Jersey City where most people are barely middle-class, this isn't Hoboken where the people spend there money on anything no matter the price. Although I must say the place truly looks absolutely beautiful now that they remodeled it. I remember how it used to look like in the past it as a kid growing up in Jersey City. read more

First visit to The Hutton and it was great. Atmosphere was relaxing great service, fun music and absolutely wonderful food. Definitely will be a repeat customer. read more

Best food you can get in Jersey City. The chef created a very unique menu with unexpected creations and incredible flavor. The menu caters to meat lovers and vegetarians. To top it off the outdoor area is just lovely. Great/ strong cocktails and v friendly service. The desserts will make your jaw drop. It's an incredible find. I feel lucky to have found this place. I recommend this place if you want to impress anyone. Will not disappoint. read more

I love The Hutton! Great ambiance both outside and in, excellent service, and even better food. I've been for brunch in the winter and dinner in the autumn and both were exceptional. This is a must try. read more

I been trying to come here for the longest time but been super busy plus I don't usually hang out in the area but rather in the City but since this place is just around the corner from me I decided to see what the hype was all about. So I came here with my niece and I was shockingly surprised how delicious the food was. The preparation was up to part, the size portion was fairly decent and quality was A+. My only negative remark was the waiting which was about an hour long, by then we were famished and inpatient, just waiting to be waited on. Our reservation was on a Saturday at 2:30pm, since brunch was ending and their dinner menu had not begun---the only thing we could order were drinks, that doesn't work well if you have an empty stomach. We did not know this prier to our reservation, nor is it mention on their website or 3rd party reservation apps. We did not receive any accommodations for the long wait, only an apology from the waitress. The food was delicious but way over priced. read more

I just tried the hutton burger nd it was AMAZING the smocked bacon jam was really the best part of the burger. The service was amazing nd id definitely recommend it for anyone to try !! read more
