Carlo's Bakery, owned by Buddy Valastro of the reality show Cake Boss, is a renowned bakery with multiple locations across the United States, including two in New York City. The bakery offers a variety of delectable treats such as cookies, cannoli, and elaborate cakes. One of their popular items is the rainbow cake - a six-layered vanilla cake filled with sweet vanilla icing and covered in rainbow sprinkles.
Growing up, I watched Cake Boss and I always wanted to try Carlo’s Bakery! I missed coming my first time to NY/NJ, so I knew this time I had to come in and try Carlo’s Bakery! I had a great experience and the quality of the pastries was superior…very fresh! No line, no wait. Staff were friendly! First time trying a lobster tail, and I think that’s my new favorite dessert! Thanks for fulfilling a piece of my childhood!!

Just doordash a mini rainbow cake, donuts, cookies and cannolis since we are in Jersey celebrating my daughter 5th birthday. Got her a rainbow cake and decided to get some desserts. The desserts all tasted old. Cannoli filling tasted spoiled. I did a late night order, early morning delivery so it appears the desserts were from the previous day or two.. everything went in the trash. Luckily I bought the rainbow cake for the look (since it’s bright and colorful) and not for the taste as i’m sure that will also get trashed. What a waste of money! Would never recommend and tell anyone I know to stay away from this bakery in Hoboken. Absolutely the worst!

I bought a cannoli, a cheesecake, a lobster tail, and sfogliatelle, and honestly, everything was just inedible. Each pastry tasted like pure sugar — so extremely sweet that it was impossible to eat. I don’t know if they keep adding more and more sugar or if they use some kind of syrup instead, but the result is simply awful. The cheesecake didn’t taste like cheesecake at all — it was more like slippery, greasy butter with no real cheese flavor. The cannoli shell tasted like stale bread, and the sfogliatelle were not fresh. The so-called cheese filling was hard and didn’t even taste like cheese. Trying these desserts is enough to cure anyone from eating sweets ever again. Absolutely not worth the hype.

We traveled way out of our way to visit this place and it was a bust. First, I had to go to another restaurant to take my child to the bathroom due to them not allowing customers to use it.. we order canoli, e'clair (about $7) and donuts and we were very disappointed. The cream inside the e'clair was frozen or suuuuper hard. The canoli's tasted like soggy bread at almost $7/ canoli thr donuts were just plain. For us 4 dishes was about $30, the place wasn't clean. Just unwelcome and not what I'd expect. There was no waiting as it was 4pm on a Saturday. Never been to NJ and my one stop 1hr out of our way was this bakery. Our excitement died when we open the door. :(

We had to visit since we’d known this location from the Cake Boss. So many choices of pastries it was hard to pick but we got several different ones to share. We did get breakfast sandwiches too and they were delicious.

I was on vacation and traveled from Puerto Rico to New Jersey! I was so exited to visit Carlos's Bakery at Hoboken after visiting Time Square location I arrived and there was no costumers... when I asked there was no lobster tails... I asked for 2 regular canolis, 1 pumpkin spice, 1 peanut butter and 1 smore... I get home with one regular, one pumpking spice and 2 peanut butter... What a deception they weren't fresh... after having them at Time Square location fresh this is so disappointing 😞 I brought them back to Passaic to share with my family... now I know why my cousin doesn't like the bakery at all, I get her if this was her first impression...

Bakery
Baking Mama, located in Hoboken since 2015, is known for its delectable desserts. While their specialty is cakes made to order with at least three days' notice, they also offer a variety of other treats such as cookies, cupcakes, macarons, and more. Customers can enjoy vegan or gluten-free options in flavors like chocolate, vanilla, and red velvet. The shop has received rave reviews for its sea salt chocolate chip cookies and cinnamon rolls with generous icing.
A local store I was in recommended it and it was amazing. The chocolate chip cookies (there are a few different kins) and cinnamon buns are to die for! People working the counter so nice also (maybe the owners?) and it is only a couple blocks from the train station!

Such a cute bakery. A mom and pop business. And " mama " was working there. A picture of her as a little girl is on the wall. They were so friendly. Their cookies are better than great. So soft and delicious. I wish I had three stomachs in order to try everything. Definitely recommend. And they own the coffee shop down the street as well. This shop is tiny and authentic.

Stopped by for a quick sweet treat, decided to get a cinnamon roll! They must have been fresh out the oven and were so warm and tasty! Also grabbed an ube matcha cookie! Plenty of gluten free options, but not a place I would suggest for dine in.

WOW! Stumbled across this shop while working in Hoboken this week and I am so glad I did. I ate most of what I got before I took a picture, but everything was DELICIOUS. I’m picky when it comes to cookies, but the sea salt chocolate chip did not disappoint. It had the right balance of chocolate chips and sea salt. Highly recommend warming it up for 10 seconds before eating it. The cinnamon roll was perfect. They didn’t hold back on the icing and the dough was super soft. They have a bunch of other cookie flavors to choose from and some other desserts. New favorite bake shop in North Jersey!!

I love this place! Stopped in after a Climate event at Pier A park and was met with two lovely women and a delicious smell. We spoke for a couple minutes and it instantly brightened my day. The ube and sea salt chocolate chip cookies are absolutely scrumptious and the chai is very refreshing in the summer heat. Even found out we share a name! Will return again when I’m able, highly recommend.

Cold Stone Creamery is a popular ice cream chain known for its customizable creations mixed on a granite slab. In addition to their signature ice cream, they also offer shakes and more. Customers appreciate the friendly staff and fresh ingredients used in their treats. While some have experienced minor delays in service, many enjoy the variety of flavors available, such as Oreo and birthday remix. Overall, Cold Stone Creamery provides a pleasant and delicious experience for ice cream enthusiasts.
We had a lovely time at Cold Stone! The ice cream was very good — rich, creamy, and full of flavor. Our little ones especially enjoyed the fun mix-ins and colorful sprinkles. The “Signature Creations” menu offered a great variety to choose from — something for everyone. The staff was friendly and patient, even with our big group. Seating was comfortable enough for a family night out, though the store could use a little more space during busy times. Overall, a sweet treat for the whole family! We’ll definitely be back for more.

This time I ordered Chocolate Devotion, and this new girl didn't mix up the ice cream well. She just put brownie in between, covered with ice cream and that's it. Otherwise Everytime they break it very well and mix this up. These kind of tiny things are very important. It's just not encouraging to come back again.

Will could give 0 star! Because that’s very much they are! We had a very disappointing experience at this ice cream shop. The staff member we encountered was extremely rude. After my daughter finished her ice cream, I even wiped the table clean myself. My daughter’s hands were a bit sticky, so she asked if she could wash them. To my surprise, the staff member stopped her and told her the area was “too scary” and that she couldn’t go in. When my daughter said she just wanted to wash her hands, the staff member then told her the sink was broken. I was confused—washing hands is a basic need, not taking a shower… I asked if she didn’t wash their hands when preparing ice cream for children, and the staff member said she didn’t, then added that the sink was in the kitchen but “the kitchen is too dangerous.” None of this made sense. We live nearby and came to support this ice-cream shop, even though their ice cream is quite expensive. Unfortunately, the way we were treated was unacceptable. We will not be coming back, and I strongly suggest hiring staff who can be genuinely kind to children.Thanks!

It is a very nice place. Its was my first time here and i would definitely say they are one of the best. The ice cream was good and the chocolate waffle they prepared was very fresh. Also they were making it newly fresh so it was added bonus for us. The staff is really friendly and working hard to make the experience pleasant. I know it takes time but patience is the key as they are putting in effort to make it unique. There are many flavors personally i liked the Oreo one and birthday remix. They offer milkshakes and cakes as well. It is a bit expensive but worth the try.

This branch of Cold Stone Creamery at Hoboken is a good place. A really nice neighborhood and also a must visit neighborhood in the area for the weekend. Very great crowd. Now this place in particular is a well maintained and clean place. Serves good ice creams. Staff is friendly. Only thing they lack is the service. They take a lot of time to serve a normal number of orders. They can improve there. Otherwise a great place.

Went to this place after a lot of reviews but personally I did not like the place. We took the banana caramel crunch small cup to try it out and it was not good. The ice cream was overpowered with the taste of the banana. I had to wait till the penultimate bite to actually taste the caramel and the vanilla flavor. Above this the ice cream is ridiculously expensive, the small cup costed something around $8-9 which is really on the high end, which I wouldn't mind if had the same quality. The shop itself was not well maintained and definitely they need to keep the shop clean. Thet had a small outdoor seating area as well. Overall an okay place wouldn't sweat it out to reach here only to have an ice cream.

I don't no if it's a race thing or religion I feel I was also disrespected but definitely I won't be coming here that's why I gave it 1 star because the ice cream was just on average

Anthony David's is a cozy Italian restaurant located in Hoboken, offering a unique dining experience. The restaurant serves as both a storefront gourmet shop and an outdoor sidewalk dining spot for dinner and brunch. Chef Anthony Pino presents a diverse menu featuring Italian classics and innovative creations made with seasonal, local ingredients. One of the standout desserts at Anthony David's is the warm doughnuts, available in Nutella-drizzled or bourbon-glazed options.
Absolutely, hands down, the best dinner we had while we were in the Jersey/ New York area for 4 nights. The intimate, sophisticated environment was only amplified by their exquisite, elevated cuisine. The staff were SO accommodating and helpful too. Genuinely a full 10/10 experience you MUST try!

Came for brunch. The juice was super fresh and made the carafe of mimosas super enjoyable. The food was not as great. It was not horrible enough to send back, but it just missed the mark. The Margherita pizza tasted like store bought frozen pizza, the steak frites came over cooked and the potatoes burned. And the French toast Benedict sounded good in theory, but lacked some much needed texture other than soft. The service was fast and polite.

I went to this restaurant for my mother’s birthday dinner, and we had such a great experience! The food was absolutely delicious, the drinks were perfectly made, and the service was outstanding. The staff were so friendly and welcoming — they really made me and my family feel right at home and made my mom’s birthday extra special. It’s rare to find a place that combines great food, excellent drinks, and such genuine hospitality. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a wonderful dining experience. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

Tried out Antony David’s in Hoboken and had a mixed but overall good experience. The spring squash tortellini was light and fresh, though the flavor felt a bit underwhelming for me personally. The lychee martini was spot on refreshing and smooth, definitely a highlight. For starters, we had the hummus plate and the whipped ricotta. The hummus was okay, but the whipped ricotta stood out, it was thick, creamy, slightly sweet with a hint of honey. Highly recommend that one. Desserts were the real winners here. The brownie with pistachio gelato was rich and comforting, definitely a must-try. But the star for me was the espresso panna cotta. Super flavorful, and the coffee hit instantly with a bold, robust finish. Probably the best thing I had that night. Good spot for drinks and dessert for sure. I’d come back just for the panna cotta and cocktails.

I had the steak with potatoes and it was absolutely perfect—juicy, tender, and cooked exactly how I asked. The potatoes were the ideal side, buttery with just the right crispness. To top it off, I tried the lychee martini, and it was such a refreshing surprise—smooth, lightly sweet, and perfectly balanced. A great pairing to round out a delicious meal. Highly recommend!

My partner and I, along with our dog, had a 5:15 PM Sunday reservation and were promptly seated at one of the many available outdoor tables. The restaurant is nestled in a tranquil, residential corner of Hoboken, making for a peaceful and pleasant people-watching experience without the disturbance of heavy traffic. The service was a definite highlight. Our waitress was gracious and attentive throughout the meal. We were particularly touched when they brought out a disposable foil bowl of water for our dog—a small but significant gesture of hospitality that we greatly appreciated. The wine list was somewhat limited for our taste, but we were very pleased with the option of a reasonable $25 corkage fee, which allowed us to enjoy a special bottle we brought from home. Our meal began on a high note with the appetizers. Both the Heirloom Baby Beets and the House Whipped Ricotta were excellent, showcasing fresh ingredients and balanced flavors that set a promising stage for the main courses. However, the entrees presented a more mixed experience. The Eggplant Bolognese featured bucatini cooked to a perfect al dente, but unfortunately, the sauce seemed to sit on the surface of the pasta rather than being fully infused, leaving the dish wanting for a deeper marriage of flavors. The Crispy Rohan Duck Breast was a similar story of near-perfection. The flavor combination was lovely, with a house-made, reduced cherry demi complementing the rich duck beautifully. The letdown, however, was in the execution of the skin; despite the "crispy" descriptor on the menu, it was not rendered so. In conclusion, Anthony David's offers a truly wonderful atmosphere and top-notch service that make for a delightful evening. While the appetizers were flawless, the entrees, though conceptually sound, had minor flaws in execution that kept them from reaching the same heights. Would I return? I'm undecided. The service and ambiance are strong pulls, but the food gives me pause. I would certainly consider coming back to explore more of their excellent appetizers over a glass of wine, but I'd need to deliberate before committing to another full dinner.

With over 40 different flavors including pound cake, black sesame, and coffee cookies, there's something to satisfy every palate. In addition to classic options, Torico offers unique flavors like Thai tea and soursop.
Their stuff was really kind! There was a blonde lady took care of me and she was so kind to me🥹🥹🥹 I had 3 scoops in waffle cone and they have a lot of flavors!!!

You will usually find a line in summer evenings. They have good variety of flavors, however the fruity flavors don’t really come across as natural in taste (probably artificial flavors are added). Couldn’t see any info about what ingredients are used in their ice cream. Some servers seem to be giving out generous amount in one scoop while others may give you a smaller size scoop. Overall the ice creams taste decent. Around $8.50 for a large cup with 3 small scoops in it.

Torico Ice Cream is absolutely worth the hype! Even on a weekday night around 9 PM, there was a long line out the door—and after trying the ice cream, we totally understood why.We had Chocolate Marshmallow, Lychee, and Pound Cake—each one was delicious and unique. Despite the crowd, the service was friendly and efficient. The atmosphere was cheerful, and you could feel the local love for this place. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Jersey City and craving quality, creative ice cream.

I had an amazing time. I went there Monday night at 7 PM. There are so many cool flavors to choose from so it took me a while to decide but I choose a hot fudge brownie sundae. It is a brownie on the bottom, 2 scoops of ice cream, whip cream, fudge sauce, and marischo cherry. I had pinapple ice cream(a summer flavor) and vanilla peanut butter. It was amazing. The ice cream was rich, creamy and fresh! The customer service is fast. Even though it was busy, it moved quickly and I got my order in less than 5 minutes from ordering.

Torico is hands-down the GOAT of ice cream shops — family-owned, full of heart, and an absolute gem in downtown Jersey City. The flavors are consistently top-tier, with Butter Pecan and Praline Cream leading the charge. Pro tip: add a little Chocolate to the mix and you’ve officially hit the jackpot. Their homemade cones are next-level — crisp, buttery, and the perfect companion to any scoop. The service is always friendly and fast, and the shop itself just feels good to be in. Clean, welcoming, and full of flavor (literally and figuratively). Can’t recommend it enough. If you’re in JC and craving something sweet, Torico is it.

There is a reason why this ice-cream place is so well rated. The ice-cream is incredibly smooth and delicious. Even the fruity flavors are delicious! I have tried the blackberry, papaya, lychee, dark chocolate and so many more I cant remember. Beware tho, you'll keep want to coming back for more !!

Prices have raised again. $5 for a small scoop of ice cream. Service wise, they unfortunately train their employees to be curt and sour in telling you with the deadpan expression that sampling is limited to three. Employee brought it abruptly in my face I could only sample 3 flavors. It's been a year or two since I've last been, and I've sampled more than 3 flavors on several occasions. Despite flavors staying consistent, they don't need my continuing patronage.

Dino & Harry's Steakhouse is a classic establishment located in a 19th-century saloon, featuring stained glass and a tin ceiling. The restaurant has been serving the community for over 30 years, preserving its vintage charm with a hand-carved cherry bar from the late 1800s and nostalgic details. Known for its steaks and chops, the menu offers sirloins, filets, porterhouse, and rib eyes paired with house-made sauces and sides.
A gem in Hoboken! Traditional stake house with live music (piano). We sat at the bar which was the best place to be. Everything we ordered was delicious. Especially the sides (yumm). You can easily skip the salads though. The portion sizes were great. It’s a stake house and the menu is priced accordingly and I feel it was worth it. The drinks were solid. The wait staff was friendly and the service was quick. Seems to have a lot of regular customers which is always a good sign. Would go there to celebrate a special occasion.

Definitely the best steakhouse in Hoboken. I would recommend the 24Oz Sirloin (at $68) x 2 vs. the 32 Oz Porterhouse for two (at $118) - better value for money - just ask for it to be cut and served hot. The Canadian bacon is great too though they serve it with coleslaw on top which makes NO sense. Not much of a beer selection but they serve it in a chilled glass which works.

Just LOVE this place. I've been going here since I was a child and everything was amplified when I chose to have my reception party here in early October. The staff were beyond excellent, the food was scrumptious, the set up was perfect even with a DJ + photobooth + live artist. Everything was taken care of and truly the experience soared beyond our expectations. The feedback we got from guests were typically around how great the service was, how tasty the food was and their appreciation for the capacity to be in&outside. Thank you Dino & Nick for such a memorable day for us! For this party: 111 guests with DJ, photobooth outside, live artist inside, piano was tucked away and coat closet for usage with open bar.

When we came here it was pretty packed but we had a Reservation and managed to get a seat tucked away on the side of the place. Was kind of disappointed as I made the reservation for a birthday dinner and made then away. I was also looking to watch the live jazz band as I mentioned with my reservation as that was part of the birthday plan but was sat in the back. For food we got the salmon dish and a steak. For starters we got the Applewood bacon. The bacon had a little more fat then we wanted but decent flavor. The salmon cane with a side of avocado and tomato had decent flavor. The steak topped with mushrooms wasn't that good. Was looking for a bit more flavor. For dessert options the cheesecake tasted like store or frozen the other dessert option forget the name was like a pudding in the cup overall desserts didn't meet our expectations. Service also lacked as the server wasn't very attentive. I'd be willing to give the place another try just was disappointing for bday plans.

One of their highlights is the zeppoles, an Italian pastry consisting of deep-fried dough balls topped with sugar and served with three dipping sauces.
Absolutely a delight to sit outside under the covered breezy patio and enjoy their brunch! The prosciutto and fig pizza was amazing! They have great brunch specials too that can be shared. Definitely will be back.

Came for brunch and was pleasantly surprised. The staff was great and helpful with the menu/brunch options. The food was delicious and drinks were not bad.

Bin14 offers more of an aesthetically pleasing atmosphere than a satisfying culinary experience. The portions are extremely small and overpriced, with little to justify the cost or size. The pizza resembles a personal pie rather than something meant for sharing, and the drinks are noticeably watered down. The only standout dish was the street corn with grilled shrimp. If you're seeking high-quality food and value for your money, you might want to explore other options.

This place is fantastic—great food and an amazing ambiance. The Mexican corn, in particular, is one of the best I’ve ever had. The only downside was the fries; they felt more like something from a fast food joint and didn’t match the quality or elegance of the rest of the menu. Honestly, the experience would be stronger without them.

Food is delicious! I love the concept of small plates made with great ingredients! Service was also outstanding! However I found the overall bill a bit pricy when compared to other places, reason why I remove a star! We didn’t drink any alcohol drinks! I still recommend it for the great quality dishes and products!

Came here on a whim while walking back to our parking spot. The wait wasn’t too long and the weather was perfect for outdoor seating. Chicken Parm and Eggplant parm were the Friday night specials! It happens to be our favorite dishes - so we got very lucky. The calamari was good for a starter and their side salad was delicious. But the best was their garlic bread - I wanted more lol! Highly recommend for a nice romantic evening in Hoboken.

Nestled in the heart of Hoboken, Augustino's is a beloved Southern Italian eatery that captures the essence of traditional cuisine with its vibrant atmosphere and hearty portions. The restaurant boasts an eclectic decor featuring distressed brick walls adorned with vintage mirrors, custom Devils jerseys, and nostalgic photos that pay homage to local legends.
Best Italian restaurant in Hoboken! I called a week in advance and got a 5:30 reservation on a Monday. The ladies that work here are very sweet and helpful! Can’t wait to go back. The gnocchi bolognese was our favorite and we inhaled Buddy’s lasagna. Don’t miss the ice box cake for dessert.

This place is a Hoboken institution and a throwback to the good old days of cash only and family owned Italian joints in Jersey. Service is great and the vibe is too. The table is hard to get but if you call they usually have some last minute cancellations or tables earlier in the night. You can also try to sit at the bar. The food, is classic red sauce options. I must admit though was a little disappointed in everything but the shrimp in garlic and wine sauce, which was sublime. We also had the pork chop, chicken parm, chicken piccata, meatballs , and carbonara.
Jonathan G — Google review
Best chicken parm of my life, sauce, chicken, cheese, pasta, just insanely good. “Sunday sauce” rigatoni dish also incredible with the meat set aside. Fra diablo lobster tails and mussels with linguine also perfectly spicy and ridiculously good. The bread is freshly baked and just crazy delicious. The ice cream “affogato” dessert was amazing. I think the key is the best red sauce you’ll ever taste in your life. Denise at the bar made us feel like we were eating at home. All the one star reviews are people who just don’t get how these small family style places operate. Be on time and bring the cash, and be very polite, like you’re visiting your Italian grandma, not eating at Il Mulino. If you love incredibly good Italian food and want that “home style” atmosphere and cooking (and don’t mind putting on a couple pounds) this is the place. Definitely worth the trip from Manhattan.

Review for Augustino’s – Disappointing First Impressions That Matter Bottom line: We were foodies that came far to visit. We did not like how you were saying it, how you were laughing — it was weird! Unfortunately, our experience at Augustino’s was not welcoming. As first-time walk-in guests, we were surprised by the cold and somewhat intimidating reception from the front staff. While I understand every business has its policies, how they’re communicated matters just as much as the rules themselves. The approach taken came off as harsh and uninviting rather than informative or friendly. It might help if a more approachable staff member—perhaps someone with a naturally warm demeanor—handled guest interactions. First impressions shape the entire visit, and this one set a negative tone before we even sat down. Also, the policy around card vs. cash payments felt unnecessarily rigid. A small discount for cash-paying customers might ease that, but better still would be clarity and kindness when explaining these rules upfront. We walked quite a distance to try this place, so the letdown was more than just minor. A bit more hospitality and flexibility could really go a long way—especially for new visitors. Feedback like this may seem small, but over time, repeated experiences like ours will affect the restaurant’s reputation across platforms.

I stopped by in person to inquire about a reservation and, unfortunately, had a very disappointing experience with the staff member handling bookings. Upon greeting her, I politely acknowledged that reservations are often difficult to secure here and asked when the next available table might be. Rather than assisting, she responded curtly with, “What day or date?” When I explained that any evening would work, she repeated the same question with visible impatience. After I suggested Thursday or Friday—while clarifying that weekdays were also fine since we live nearby—she flipped through the reservation book abruptly and stated those days were unavailable. When I again asked if she could tell me the next open slot, she simply repeated, “I need a day or date,” in an unhelpful and dismissive tone. No matter how great the food may be, an experience begins with hospitality, and the lack of courtesy at the reservation stage left a lasting negative impression. It’s disappointing that such an acclaimed restaurant allows such unprofessional service at the very first point of contact.

Food - average. Service - we arrived for a 6:30 reservation - our wedding anniversary, I sat down, then was asked to move to a different table - all while my husband was parking the car. He walked in at 6:45. At this time we were told we couldn't order anything on the bone/ sauteed on the bone because we were late and wouldn't have time. We were rushed to order everything else. At the end - we were done 15 min early. It was the most unpleasant, sit down, big important date celebration I have ever experienced.

This place is amazing - very delicious food, very nice ambience and vibe. It is quite small so you should make a reservation in advance - walk ins can be difficult simply because there isn’t much space. The food is absolutely amazing - definitely check it out!

I can’t believe that I lived in Hoboken for 10+ years without ever going here. It’s fantastic. The second I walked though the door, I knew by the aromas in the dining room, I was in for a night of good food. We (thankfully) got to taste everyone’s dishes and everything was exceptional. Veal picatta, chicken parm, lamb chops and GIANT veal chops were all so flavorful and well prepared. We also had the juiciest meatballs and the calamari (and its tomato sauce) was the best I’ve ever had. Great servers with sass! Make a rez and go.

Blue Eyes is a modern Italian restaurant and cafe located on the Hoboken Hudson River waterfront, offering stunning views of the Manhattan skyline. The eatery celebrates the legacy of Frank Sinatra, Hoboken's famous native son, while serving up traditional Italian cuisine cooked in a wood-fired oven. With a riverfront patio and raw bar facing the Hudson, Blue Eyes provides an ideal setting to enjoy brunch, lunch, dinner or drinks while taking in the picturesque scenery.
One of the best italian restaurant!! As an Italian, the quality of the food is great and the atmosphere is even better! You enjoy the real Italian food with fresh ingredients in a warm environment that makes you feel at home! The view is great and it’s absolutely worthy to go and enjoy a spritz and pizza or pasta!

The food was actually really good - especially the pizza. However, the service was quite disappointing. When we walked in, the staff just stared without saying anything. Also, when we asked for the check, they started clearing the table. While wiping it down, they PUSHED TRASH TOWARD ME — ESPECIALLY ONTO MY SKIRT — and some of it EVEN FELL ON ME. Still, NO APOLOGY. Good food, but the service REALLY NEEDS IMPROVEMENT.

Most importantly: I AM CELIAC. I can’t have gluten because I’m currently undergoing treatment. I ordered a gluten-free pasta, but when I was almost done eating, I started having a reaction—my neck and arms began to itch. I flagged down another waitress (since ours wasn’t paying much attention to us), and she went to double-check with him. When she asked him, he looked surprised, checked the order tab, spoke to the manager/owner, and then came back to tell me HE WASN’T SURE if it was gluten-free—because sometimes he asks the kitchen, and they don’t do it. He took my plate away and said I could have the chicken that was already on my plate, and even offered me a gluten-free pizza “on him.” But by then, I had lost my appetite and declined. On top of that, my friends and I waited an hour for our drinks—mine was just a simple sparkling water. We ended up ordering dessert first because the main course was taking so long and we were all starving. No manager came over to apologize or even acknowledge what had happened. To make matters worse, after this whole terrible experience, they acted like they were doing me a favor by “not charging” for my pasta, but still charged $10 for two tiny chicken breasts. (Meanwhile, my friend ordered the same dish and got four large pieces—clearly, there’s no consistency in portion sizes.) We all had dessert, and they told us, “We’re not charging for the dessert, but please don’t tell anyone.” So many other things went wrong, but I’ll leave it to my friends to share their sides—otherwise, I could write an entire essay about how bad this was.

Food was really good but the service leaves a lot to be the desired. The hostess somewhat escorted us to our table but put the menus down and walked off without saying a word so I had to guess what our table was. Second, had to flag down waiter most of the times to order something. Third, while seated the waitress was talking loudly behind me to a friend on the outside of the restaurant like I wasn't even there. This place is a one and done kind of place.

The restaurant boasts a 30-ton coal oven that ensures the quality of their food. Notably, their breadsticks were even enjoyed by Frank Sinatra himself.
One of the best restaurants I’ve been too recently. Excellent service! Sage was the one taking care of us and she was excellent. My girlfriend and I ordered the kale salad, and plantain croquettes and they were amazing! So delicious. The salad is my girl’s favorite. I got the burger and it is definitely a top tier burger. She got the seafood linguini and it was delicious. Very flavorful! Top tier Mac and cheese on the side. Probably top 5 I’ve ever had. We finished with the bread pudding it was the best bread pudding I’ve ever had! You must order it when there. It is perfection. 10/10 experience.

Overall rating: 4.7 My oh my, my friends wanted to try this place being in New Jersey. Through some research I realized it was a very popular place, especially their bread pudding for lunch. I came around 12 so I didn’t really want breakfast food by the time I was ready to eat. I ordered the mussels and while they were good, I was expecting the sauce to be delicious. The green sauce was a lot thinner & tasted very healthy. Not sure why I thought it would taste more like the typical sauce. It was just okay. I also ordered the infamous bread pudding with my friends who agreed reluctantly and wow 3 people was too little. You need at least 4 people to eat that! I took a good amount to go & it filled my dessert for the whole week! It was a really nice setting but the waitress was so friendly! She was selling every piece and wasn’t pushing either. We went around 1 so I think the brunch rush was coming to an end. Everyone was so friendly and I’d definitely go again if I’m in the area. Recommend trying something else that I didn’t order.

This is so good. I saw quite a hype of this place on a tiktok and waited a while to go but I genuinely believe Antique lives up to the hype ESPECIALLY with the bread pudding. I think it was the best dessert I’ve ever had. it’s massive and the 4 of us couldn’t even finish it which i’ve never had an issue with before. Really worth checking out!

Atmosphere is nice! But the food is just above average! Steak was over cooked although ordered medium rare. The server was no where to be found for 10 min so we just started eating! The muscles are great, but portions are small. Pasta is really good only thing i would give a 5 star Bread budding is good! The caramel and the oven bake flavor is what is making it good! It was a good experience! But it isnt worth coming back for this price. Drinks are great thou!

“Local neighborhood spot with elevated cuisine and service” would be the perfect short blurb for this restaurant. It’s both a special occasion spot and a regular everyday spot at the exact same time. Great entrees and apps and drinks for a lunch a brunch or a dinner. It can be tough to snag a table but the wait or repeated effort is worth it. The pastas the proteins and the veg are all equally worth ordering. The inventive spins on classics like elote and lasagna are delicious and crave worthy demanding a conversation about their deliciousness and an immediate desire to make the next reservation so that you can enjoy them again. The desserts are equally good and the warm skillet cookie is every bit as good as the bread pudding which already has legions of fans. Easily recommend over and over again.

Brunch at Antique Bar & Bakery hit all the right notes. I had the steak and eggs with chimichurri—ordered it medium rare, and they nailed it. Juicy, flavorful, and just the right amount of char. The Huevos Rancheros were bold and satisfying, and even the Eggs Benedict, though simple, had that perfect balance of flavor and comfort. The vibe? Effortlessly cool without trying too hard. The kind of place where you can settle in and really enjoy your meal. Service was spot-on—friendly, fast, and attentive without hovering. Now, about the bread pudding—I’m not usually one to go crazy for carbs, but this changed my mind. Warm, rich, and absolutely addictive. If you only try one thing here, let it be this bad boy. Seriously. Can’t wait to come back—this place has something special.

This is my favorite bakery in Jersey City!! Everything is extremely affordable, the staff are always friendly, the longest I've ever waited in line is around 10 minutes. I've never gotten anything bad here, their cakes are so moist and fluffy but never too rich. The flavors are always so amazing and everything is baked to perfection. If you are looking for a birthday cake or just a few pastries please come to this bakery, you definitely won't be disappointed and will 100% keep coming back.

Ordered a full size tres leches cake for my husband’s birthday for $120 + tip and it was perfection. Gorgeous cake and tasted phenomenal. It has a layer of thick caramel-adjacent deliciousness and a layer of peaches which some people are not a fan of but I liked it. Perfectly moist but not sopping wet. Every ingredient super tasty! Pickup was fast and easy.

Just don't come here if you’re in a rush as sometimes there is a long line. It's that good!

This is one of the finest bakery in the area. Plenty of options to choose from ranging from pastries, to cupcakes and coffee. The vibe of the place is really good and the staff is helpful. This place is always full of people and crowded and hence the aesthetics don’t emerge out. Sometimes the queue could be long but it’s fast moving. I have usually picked up pastries and they taste fresh and good 8 of the 10 times. They do not have any vegan options. The store is on a heavily trafficked street so parking could be tough to find. They have public meter parking right outside the store.

Dulce De Leche Bakery is truly out of this world! Even though they opened their doors at 7(!) a.m., a cheerful line of people was already waiting well before that on this beautiful September Saturday. Thankfully, the queue moved quickly, and we saw one happy customer after another leaving with big, enticing packages. The selection of baked goods feels virtually unlimited. There's something exquisite for every craving: from light and flaky croissants, freshly baked bread, and satisfying cookies, to gorgeous cupcakes, and, of course, their magnificent cakes. For any celebration—or just because—their cake selection is a dream. You'll find towering Celebration Cakes perfect for birthdays and promotions, decadent Red Velvets with a tangy cream cheese frosting, and classic, moist Vanilla Bean cakes. They even offer specialty creations like rich Black Forest Gateau and bright, zesty Lemon-Blueberry layer cakes, ensuring they have the perfect centerpiece for any event, big or small. The service is just as impressive—fast, friendly, and accommodating. And when it comes to taking home your masterpieces, the packaging is wonderfully convenient and safe, with different sizes to perfectly fit your haul. It is, without a doubt, the best bakery around! Thank you to everyone at Dulce De Leche Bakery!

On our visit, we decided to try out a few of their pastry options and sampled the butter croissant, chocolate croissant, almond croissant, and a chocolate chip cookie. The pastries overall tasted fresh, and you could tell they were baked with care. Out of everything we tried, the butter croissant and the almond croissant stood out the most. Both were flaky, buttery, and delicious enough that we ended up ordering a few more to take home. The chocolate croissant was decent, though not quite as memorable compared to the others, while the cookie was good but nothing particularly special. They also serve coffee. We also tried their avocado toast, which unfortunately didn’t impress. For the price point, I felt it was a bit underwhelming in flavor and portion, especially compared to the quality of their baked goods. It definitely leaned on the expensive side, and in my opinion, didn’t justify the cost. What I did notice is that they have a much wider variety of pastries beyond what we ordered, so there’s definitely room to come back and explore more of their menu. They also offer cakes, and from what I’ve heard, their tiramisu cake is considered their standout item. If you’re a fan of tiramisu, this seems like the one not to miss. Overall, while not everything was perfect, the pastries especially the almond and butter croissants were impressive enough to make me want to return and try more of their desserts.

If you know, you know Dulce de Leche is a gem known for their delicious pastries and cakes. I'm in love with their breakfast sandwiches but this visit was for cake slices since my boyfriend and I are obsessed with their DDL Chantilly cake. It's chocolate cake with layers of dulce de leche and whipped cream, it's so light and fluffy. I always order online for pickup in which I walk straight to the cash registers, a staff member grabs my order, and I then I head out. The slices of cake are pretty hefty too. They also have other sandwiches, smoothies, juices, coffee, and more. There's tables and chairs to sit with a laptop and I believe they have free Wi-Fi. Since I visited during the weekday around the afternoon, there weren't many people here but there were times I did have to wait on line for a while especially on the weekends. Definitely check them out!

Downtown Jersey city! What a treat to have this delicious frozen yogurt store! They have plant based and real ice cream based selections! A plethora of toppings!!! The staff welcomed us warmly and kindly explained where to get the cups and told us to get the toppings from them. I just had to try the pineapple dole whip! And let me tell you it did not let me down!! I added chunks of strawberry and mango. So refreshing on the palate and not overly sweet. It was just perfect! There is a gender neutral bathroom available and a few seats to enjoy your treat inside. On a nice day you could just walk around the area.

The outlet has the best possible location in downtown Jersey City so hats off to that! The ambience is really cute and the staff are really polite over here. You can add as many flavors of frozen yogurt and they charge you based on weight! The best part is that a lot of their products are low fat or non-fat I did add multiple flavors like vanilla, chocolate, raspberry, strawberry, Paris tartare and something else which I don't recollect now which was topped with blueberries, brownies and chocolate chips and finally the sprinkles. Overall it was a great experience and loved the taste! One improvement I would suggest is to improve the texture of raspberry, as initially I found it similar to strawberry!

Downtown Yogurt was the perfect quick pick me up my boyfriend and I needed in this hot, humid weather! They offer various flavors from fruity to chocolate-sweet, to the classic flavors, to more unique flavors. Some of these flavors include: mango, cookies n creme, watermelon, pistachio, chocolate, etc. The service was extremely friendly and helpful in choosing the right flavors and toppings for me. I'm a chocolate-sweets kind of person so I left with a cookies n creme, pineapple flavors (yes it worked for me) - with toppings of strawberries, Oreo crumbs, strawberry chocolate, Nutella crumbs with hot chocolate drizzle. Very happy with my experience and would make another visit again to try out the other flavors/toppings.

Its been so long since I have had good ice cream since I don't do dairy and was so happy to see this event. I have been to this location in the past, so was looking forward to enjoying again. When I arrived I parked on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted. They had about 3 vegan options so I went with the vegan vanilla with oreo, cookie dough and brownie.

Finally gave this place a try! IT’S PRICEY $6.50 (1 scoop), BUT the quality holds up— GENUINELY GOURMET. The staff is straightforward without much personality. They are not trying to charm you, just there to keep the line moving & explain the unique flavors..The space is small.. It’s clearly an independent shop still finding its rhythm, which adds to its charm. A newcomer in the ice cream game without a franchise backing, hence, the premium. A good spot to try when you have extra money to spare. The rating should probably be lower, but I still want to support a small business—especially in the tough, competitive world of ice cream. It’s not like cafes, which are a more common and arguably easier type of business to start and sustain. There’s real effort and creativity behind this, and that deserves recognition.

Pretty good ice cream. Very friendly staff. The only thing I didn’t like was the weighing of the ice cream before serving. I do not run a business. So take my ignorant opinion for what it is worth but I did not even look at the price of it until I saw that. I was buying it because it tastes good and I didn’t care but once I saw that I felt nickle and dimed so I lookes up to see that I am playing $6 per scoop and I feel like it was not worth it. Years back during a customer service training I had to watch a video that stuck with me titled just give em the pickle which advised businesses not to up charge for everything and the customer will feel like they got a bargain. It is my understanding that this is why 5 guys throws “extra” fries in their bag that are already factored in to their price and the customer feels like they got a bonus. How much could a bit of a heavier scoop cost? Negligible at best.

It’s really delicious ice cream with unique & seasonal flavors. If you are deciding between ice cream shops to go to in JC, this is the best scoop in terms of quality. The only downside is that it’s pretty expensive, these days $6 for a small.

Absolutely loved their ice-cream. It melts right away which means that they are old school. They do not add stabilizers like other ice-cream shops. Really appreciate the quality. Not many places make good quality anymore. Thank you for making sure that our kids eat quality product.

Solid choices, not too limited without being too expansive. 2 samples only per customer. No tiny/taster/kids sized scoops. It's cold inside. Nice that the service is quick and straightforward, but it's missing that friendly touch.

Probably the best ice cream cookie sandwich I've ever had in my life. I try not to toss that around lightly. The cookies were so good and tasted homemade. The sea salt that you taste on each bite of the gooey chocolate chip cookie just adds a whole flavor to each bite. Then there's a hefty size scoop of ice cream that gets sandwiched between the cookies. I think it's the best bang for your buck over here at MSL. Will definitely come back whenever I'm in the area. The flavors are also so different from other creameries that you see around here.

You can really appreciate the quality of their product once you start comparing to others. Alfajores, matcha cookie and honey lavender are primo. Flavorful, cool combinations and reliable classics. Local competitors just don’t taste as rich or even worse taste chemically and aerated. I wish they made enough of their limited flavors so could be available to buy for longer than a minute.

We’ve been going to Sweet for years, so choosing them for our wedding cake was an easy decision. We placed our order about a month in advance and included some inspiration pictures for the design. We picked up our single-tier, 10-inch, 3-layer carrot cake with cream cheese frosting the day before our wedding in NYC. Two months later, I still can’t stop thinking about how delicious it was! It was beautiful, absolutely delicious, and a huge hit. We definitely recommend Sweet and will be back for more of that carrot cake!

We opted to order our wedding cake from Sweet because we wanted to use a local bakery and didn't want a '"traditional" wedding cake. I fell in love with a vintage style heart shaped cake design and Sweet baked us the most beautiful and delicious cake. When my husband picked it up the day before our wedding and showed it to me, I gasped because it was exactly what I had envisioned. We highly recommend Sweet and can't wait to try more of their delicious treats.

I came here after dinner as I was craving something sweet. I love eating something sweet and I am always in the mood for cake. The quaint bakeshop is located near a park. Due to COVID, they are limiting the amount of people in the store. I ordered a Red Velvet ($3.75) and a Fluffernutter ($3.75). The cupcakes were tasty but, I felt that they were a bit small to be "regular" sized. Personally, I thought the tasty and presentation was just okay. I didn't see anything that made them noteworthy to visit again. The bakery had tons of interesting flavors but, I am not sure I would return. Maybe if I was in the area again. The one thing I didn't like is that the cupcakes were placed in a paper bag. I had to be very careful on transporting home my goodies. The customer service was okay. The person didn't really seem into being there one way or another. I was just another fly on the wall for all they cared.

The best cake truffle I've ever had. I buy cake truffles here when I really want to eat sweet desserts. My favorite cake truffles are carrot cake, chocolate, birthday cake, etc.. It's hard to say what I don't like. The price is reasonable, too. They sell many kinds of bakeries, such as cupcakes, cakes, cookies, and more which look great But I haven't tried them yet. You may not want to try their coffee. If you want great coffee, there is another coffee shop nearby. There are no indoor seats, but there are a few outdoor seats.

Cocoa Bakery in Jersey City is a delightful spot that captivates with its inviting aroma and warm atmosphere. The service is excellent--friendly staff make you feel right at home. I appreciated the variety of vegan and gluten-free options available. I tried the cupcake of the day, a chocolate chip and white chocolate creation, and it was absolutely delicious; rich, moist, and perfectly balanced. While some seats could use a bit of maintenance, the overall vibe is cozy. I'm looking forward to my next visit to try the truffles. If you're in the area, Cocoa Bakery is definitely worth a stop!

One of the must visit places in Jersey City for cup cakes, truffles, Whoopie pie and a litany of baked goods - you name it. The quality is ethereal and absolutely speaks quality, authentic ingredients, mastery of craft and baking as religion. It’s that good (for me atleast). Have a go at anything you won’t be disappointed - favorites are Cup Cakes, Pies, Truffles, Big Cakes.

Sadly, I’m really disappointed with my first experience at Cocoa Bakery. Based on word of mouth and reviews, I picked the bakery on Grand St for Thanksgiving pies. There were splits in the pumpkin pie when I picked up, from either overcooked eggs or cooling too quickly. Unfortunately I feel like it was not worth the price ($33), given the presentation. The apple pie was not a traditional lattice pie. But the pecan honey caramel was delicious and absolutely well worth the price ($37). I like the bakery but will likely not order ahead pies or desserts

Jun's Macaron Gelato is a vibrant and inviting dessert spot located on Washington Avenue. The menu features an array of delectable treats including macarons, crepes, ice cream rolls, and gelato with various toppings. One highlight is the delightful combination of rolled ice cream sandwiched between two gluten-free macarons made with almond flour. Customers rave about the tempting flavors of rolled gelato as well as the special macaron varieties such as Red Velvet.
If you have a sweet tooth, Jun’s Macaron & Gelato is an absolute paradise! The raspberry macaron is a delightful treat, perfectly crisp on the outside and soft inside, bursting with fruity flavor. The chocolate gelato is simply divine—rich, creamy, and indulgent.

I’m not someone who usually goes out of my way to buy chocolate chip cookies, but I had a chance to try theirs—and wow, they were surprisingly good! Soft in the middle with perfectly crunchy edges and packed with lots of chocolate. It was also super thick—when I saw the package, I thought there were two cookies, but it was actually just one giant piece. Definitely worth trying!

Very nice sweet shop in the Washington Avenue. It offers many sweets, including Gelato, Cakes, Macarons, and cookies. Everything looks so cute and colorful. We had Butter Pecan Gelato and Almond Gelato. The Butter Pecan was tasty and not too sweet. There were many chunk of pecans and we love them. We definitely recommend this flavor. The macarons are pretty and they have many special flavors, including Red Velvet. The staff was very friendly and the service was fast. The shop does not have any seats inside. So, we sat at the front.

The brand originated at the University of Pennsylvania and has since expanded to 16 locations across the city, offering classic cookie flavors like chocolate chunk, M&M's, and snickerdoodle. In addition to cookies, they also offer cakes with various icing options and "wiches," which are ice cream-stuffed cookie sandwiches. The seasonal menu adds an exciting twist to their offerings.

This review is solely based on the quality of the cookies. The people working there were nice and friendly and have absolutely no issues with them. The cookies just seemed to be cooked more well done which isn't what I like. I get it. They are making thousands of cookies per day and I come in around 9pm looking for a snack. I still think the quality should be there. Their loss though because I get pretty hungry at night!!

Insomnia cookies have the worst customer service that I have ever experienced in my life. It is beyond ridiculous.

The empanadas at Crema are exceptional. If you're accustomed to greasy, fried versions commonly found in Jersey City, give these baked Argentinian ones a try. They offer a wide range of options, including vegan and vegetarian choices as well as those with ham, beef, and chicken. The quality is consistently delicious; I've been purchasing empanadas from this establishment for two years and they have yet to disappoint. Their ice cream and croissants are also outstanding.
What an amazing experience at this locally owned cafe! Crema offers a variety of premium drinks hot and cold! Also, a variety of baked goods, gourmet sandwiches, hot plates, and even ice cream! Staff was extremely friendly and helpful and offered great service! The inside is decorated with beautiful artwork and live plants. They are pet friendly and offer inside and outdoor seating. Come by and check them out!

I stopped by this little coffee shop one evening after work. It’s a small, charming roadside spot with a cozy vibe—just a handful of tables and chairs, but enough for a casual hangout or for folks working remotely. Beyond coffee, they also serve ice cream, baked treats, fresh sandwiches, and soups—perfect for a light refreshment. I ordered a regular drip coffee ( with cream) and a slice of what seemed like a coffee cake. The cake might’ve been gluten-free (which I didn’t realize at the time), and it turned out quite dense—not soft or spongy as I’d hoped. It also lacked sweetness, apart from a thin sugary crust on top. Not terrible, but nothing to rave about. The coffee itself was very basic—drinkable, but not particularly rich or flavorful. Service was a bit slow, but to be fair, only two staff members were handling both orders and prep, and the place was quite busy. Despite the wait, they remained polite and well-mannered, which I appreciated.

Great drip coffee! I have been wanting to come here for awhile. This morning I was out of coffee at home and boy, have I been missing out on some really great coffee! Their coffee is the best I've had, way better than any of the places around (wonder bagel, dunkin, mcd, starbucks or any of the small coffee shops in Grove, which to me always taste stale or too weak). Crema's drip coffee is a delicious, nice rich medium blend, with nutty undertones. Fantastic for regular drip coffee, highly recommended. Nice amount of caffeine to give me the morning jolt I needed. Very friendly staff and I thank them for their friendliness, without caffeine I'm a zombie. 2 large black coffees cost $6(was about $5.35 but gave the change as a tip). Highly recommend this family run business. We need more places like this in this area. Please support them and stop by for a great cup of coffee, you won't regret it. Don't wait or hesitate like I did, you're really missing out if you don't try their coffee! If I could afford to buy coffee everyday, this would be my go to place. I will be back to try some pastries and homemade ice cream. (Went back and tried Pistachio mousse sponge cream cake, tiramisu, chocolate mousse and carrot cake. All were fresh/delicious and I highly recommend. They keep some in the freezer and it thaws out really well. $27 plus a crossaint and brownie. Next time ice cream).

Flour is a renowned gourmet pizza place known for its fresh ingredients and perfect crust. The restaurant offers a nice ambiance with candlelit tables and fancy plates, allowing customers to bring their own beverages. The menu features delicious pies, including the spicy rigatoni and Mexican street corn pastas, which have received high praise for their excellent taste. While the restaurant is on the smaller side, it has a modern vibe that many find appealing.
Came here with my girlfriends - this place was great! It was so delicious and the byob option is such a win. Pastas dont include a meat which I didn’t love and the prices are high, but the food was REALLY good and creative. Pics are spicy rigatoni, steak, whipped ricotta, & tuna crudo.

Flour in Hoboken was a solid find. The ambiance is low-key and chill, perfect for a relaxed dinner. You have the option to sit inside or outside, which is always a plus. Parking is on the street, but we were lucky enough to grab a spot right in front, which made getting there stress free. We started with the whipped ricotta served with sweet peppers on the side and mussels as appetizers, both were really good. Honestly, you don’t realize how much you need whipped ricotta in your life until you try it. For entrees, I had the Mexican street corn pasta, and it was fire. It captured the full flavor of street corn, and I’d honestly go back just for this dish alone. My partner had the spicy rigatoni, which was also really good, though I personally would have liked a bit more heat. Service was great. Our server was friendly, checked in on us often, and even brought us a complimentary glass of champagne when he found out we were celebrating our anniversary, which was a really nice touch. Overall, everything was cool, the food delivered, and we left happy. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you’re in Hoboken.

Overall, a nice dining experience even though we felt quite rushed. The high quality of the food is fairly well documented here, which makes one wonder why just the average Google score. On food alone they could and should be scoring at a 4.5 or above. We’ll start with the food. We ordered the whipped ricotta (7.5/10, $21), pesto gnocchi (8.2/10, $32), Mexican street corn (8.3/10, $35) and olive oil cake (7.6, $14). Solid scores across the board, but also nothing necessarily spectacular. While the portions are generally small, the dishes are quite rich so it works. Immediately once our plates were cleared they wanted to get our dessert order in. We needed a second to breathe so just asked to think it over. They came back minutes later asking again, so we just went ahead and ordered the olive oil cake thinking well we’d still have five minutes before it arrived. Nope, it was at the table within 30 seconds. Not only that, our check was dropped off immediately after, barely after taking our first bite (mind you, this was 6:59p for a 6pm reservation). Another thing I see mentioned here, the lack of tap water. There is just no excuse for this and a simple money grab to sell bottled water. All in all, if they cleaned up these few silly items, they’d be better off in the long run. $132 for 2 people is pretty pricey, even considering the natural savings of being a byob (which is almost negated by that high prices). They just need to make the dining experience more relaxed and enjoyable to justify the high price tag most people would be willing to pay for quality.
Joe C — Google review
The service was horrible. The hostess was incredibly rude, and seemed that she completely hated the job and everyone around her. The steak tartare was very good and the pasta was alright. Just like the other reviews mentioned it’s INCREDIBLY loud in there. And I don’t think it’s because of the amount of people, I’ve been to much tighter more packed restaurants where I was able to talk and enjoy my evening. But at this restaurant everyone was genuinely yelling at each other to talk like it was a college bar.
Anastasia — Google review
This review was required after the half a dozen visits in the past 18 months. I have come with a large party and a small intimate party. The pros are clearly the BYOB which allows me to spend a higher per item price on the menu while enjoying my own favorite wine. That being said the decor, the vibe (lighting, ambiance, service) more than compensate as this truly is the neighborhood restaurant on the upper west or upper east sides across the river. The food is inventive and approachable not pretentious. The dishes are constructed both for the tongue and for the eyes. I would recommend this over a trek into the city if what you're looking for is great food in a great environment. I like the printed plates that are the default place settings prior to the meal because they invoke a pleasant mood, but I also love the actual stoneware and flatware at the restaurant which feel both elegant and homey at the same time. The starters are well executed and tasty. I do wish there was a complementary amuse bouche to really cement the family vibe but I don't know the logistics and timings and expense that that would entail. The beet carpaccio leaves one thinking they had a great dish and not missing a protein. The whipped ricotta is fantastic and I'm always left wondering how much effort went into getting the flavor and airy creaminess into the ricotta. In the past I thought the ratio of bread to ricotta was off with too much ricotta but it is perfect now. The steak tartare was excellent and though I initially thought the pringles were a gimmick (and the presentation is a bit gimicky since its still in the can) the actual contrast of the flavor is great. I would not have been bothered by a crusty bread or handmade chips but the pringles can was definitely more memorable. I thought the pastas are, as a whole, quite good. Not overcooked, oversauced or overseasoned. I think some of the detractors want all of those things though on the negatives I did feel that the malfadine this last time had been dummed down a bit and could use some more punch for the adult palate, unless it is the effective kids menu offering. On the positives the spicy rigatoni was excellent and I craved more sauce even after the dish was gone. The squid ink bolognese was excellent though the aroma was a bit fishier than I expected. The mexican street corn pasta is one of my favorites and made me wish for summer. The ochi is a great dish concept but I wish it was a single bite not two. There is no complaint on the flavors and the story weaved together by the very different dishes and flavors seems well constructed despite the variety of inspirations and backgrounds as it just seems American, a melting pot which speaks to its diners themselves.

Started with whipped ricotta and Caesar salad- both were delicious! Food - corn pasta was cold and boring S’mores Tart - s’mores are warm, therefore this dessert should be warm. It was cold… Service- terrible, she never asked how our food was once! And dropped the bill. Lastly, they don’t offer tap water so you need to pay $6 for a bottle…kinda crazy

So let me tell y’all about Flour. First the owner Justin , super cool dude. He’s on the floor engaging with his guests and making sure you are comfortable and will be your server if he needs to be which was the case for us for a brief time. The food is next level! Everything is so fresh and the send out your food at almost the perfect pace as if there are little cameras at every table scanning your food letting them know “ they have about one good bite left” 😂😂. I was only able to capture the spicy rigatoni as everything else we started eating because it just looked so good! You must get the Whipped Ricotta, Spicy Ceasar, spicy Rigatoni and the Mexican Street Corn, the FlatIron. Everything is super light it’s best to get different dishes and share.

If you're tired of the usual stress-inducing ice cream parlor experience, where you agonize over flavors and end up with the same old scoop, then get ready for a delightful surprise! This place takes the often-daunting task of choosing an ice cream flavor and transforms it into an incredibly fun and vibrant adventure. Forget boring white walls and sterile counters. From the moment you step inside, you're enveloped in a colorful environmental experience that's as exciting as the flavors themselves. Seating is minimal, but the outdoor space is equally fun. Go early if you'd like to beat the crowds which often congregate later into the evening.

Lovely place, loved the decorations and that all their paletas are made with natural ingredients! I tried the passion fruit paleta filled with condensed milk and so far it’s my fav! It has the perfect balance of tangy and sweet! I also tried the Dubai chocolate paleta dipped with dark chocolate and coated in peanuts. I liked it but it was too sweet so next time I wouldn’t dip it in chocolate it’s not needed for me personally. They have so many more flavors I want to try such as mango sorbet, coconut, Dulce de leche, etc… Highly recommend to come here with your family to try different ones! They have a water bowl outside for your pets to drink water.🥹❤️

Had their S’mores cookie and it was perfect. Location is small so best to grab one while on the go. They also have deals if you order a certain amount. Great gem in the heart of downtown Jersey City!

We ordered these cookies from the website. They came wrapped up fresh and ready to eat. They taste amazing if you put them into the microwave for a few seconds. Id highly suggest stopping by or ordering some from the website. I tried them since Coryb from instagram invested in them.

I used to love bang cookies 5 years ago! Idk if it’s because they expanded so much, and I’m happy they are successful, but the love that was in these cookies as a startup is lost. I got two cookies and both tasted too crispy and burnt around the edges, had a taste like sugar coated plastic. The cookies and cream was so so sweet, didn’t have any chocolate flavor and the cream was a thin line in the center. I rather eat an Oreo. The chocolate chip caramel one was a tiny bit better, at least the gooey center was gooey. But it had that same plastic taste. Not that I know what plastic tastes like but something was off. I unfortunately will skip.

Being near NYC and having everything at your fingertips there are unlimited options when it comes to cookies, and we are obsessed with Bang Cookies! We purchase every time we see a store (including at Terminal A in Newark Airport no matter the time of day) and even ordered a massive order for takeaway treats for our wedding guests this past year. HIGHLY recommend ordering for yourself (or for an event) they are seriously the best.

My partner and I came here for dessert and it was amazing! I got the snickerchurro which was amazing! The size was so generous wnd it was thick! My partner got the chocolate strawberry and it was amazing! They are big portions and tasted even better heated up. We will definitely be back! The staff was so nice to offer us heated!

The cookies are fantastic - gooey, crispy, taste homemade, and interesting flavors vs your run-of-the-mill choc chip and PB-whatever. The customer service is abhorrent - the salesperson mumbled incoherently and was posting photos on instagram while we ordered. I mean it’s a cookie place, but it’s not a lot to ask to be marginally more engaged with a customer for a 5-minute transaction (tops).

This place is absolutely amazing if you're looking for a sugar rush in the Grove Street area! They have a decent selection of cookies with different varieties to choose from. Although, there's one thing you should know - if you happen to swing by around 9:30ish on Fridays and Saturdays, they tend to run out of most of the cookies. It's a bit strange, right? I mean, how can a place close early and run out of popular flavors on one of the busiest streets in town, especially on weekend nights? But hey, don't let that discourage you! Their brownies might not be my cup of tea, but you should definitely give their cookies a try. My personal favorites are the triple chocolate chunk and sea salt chocolate cookies. Trust me, they're worth it!

This place never disappoints. Located near grove st path station, it's easily accessible. The staff is friendly and the cookies no doubt are good. The good thing is these people have shakes in their menu which I didn't find in their heights outlet. Tried out their signature bourbon kitchen sink and loved how it wasn't too sweet and had the taste of whisky in it.

Alessio's Cafe is a charming Italian eatery nestled in the heart of Hoboken, offering an extensive breakfast and lunch menu. The cafe is renowned for its delectable coffee, flavorful gelato, and mouthwatering Nutella pizza. Whether you're craving New York-style pizza or a refreshing beverage like lattes, cappuccinos, shakes, or smoothies, Alessio's has got you covered.
A lovely spot for coffee and pastries and probably some of the most tasty and reliable breakfast wraps/sandwiches I've ever had. The chicken cesar wrap was delicious too. Wonderful attention to detail on delivery orders and great in person service.

After a busy day sightseeing in NYC we wanted something quick and easy to eat. Did a quick search on Google Maps and found this little gem. We ordered the 16” Alessio Special Pizza to take away and it was one of the best pizzas we’ve eaten. They also sell pizza by the slice and have a great selection of cakes which we also sampled! Really recommend this place and if we’re weren’t heading back to England in a day or two we’d be eating here again!

I have lived in the area for years and have ordered from here many times. The food is decent but it is very inconsistent.

Ordered the Capri Panini (grilled chicken and pesto) and the Hoboken (prosciutto and porchetta) and both lived up to their descriptions. Large sandwiches with generous portions of meat and cheese but still hold together nicely. Also tried their pistachio croissant which was buttery and soft. I actually thought the filling was phenomenal - really rich and not too sweet. A nice departure from the large, ultra flaky, darker croissants that are all the rage right now. I did takeout and was pleased that the sandwiches travelled well. The cafe was just packed on a Saturday morning and the wait was about 50 minutes for my online order.

Baonanas Banana Pudding is a delightful twist on the classic treat, featuring a light and mousse-like texture that sets it apart. The menu offers an array of exciting flavors such as cream n cookies, ubenanas, strawberry baonanas, honey cornbread, Nutella-walnut, and french toast.
This is my first time visiting Baonanas Cafe. I’ve heard about it from my friends, and I decided to go today just to give it a try! Their pudding was so abundantly good. It was so creamy, flavorful, and scrumptious, especially their cookies and cream, and matcha pudding. So far, I immediately fell in love with their puddings. One of the staff members named Celia is friendly, attentive and delightful. She went out of her way to ensure I was completely satisfied with my experience. I’ll definitely come back with 1-2 friends to have their pudding again. It’s highly recommended for those who crave a soft, creamy dessert!”

Super cute pudding cafe!! Drink menu is creative & tons of options to pick from. Delicious flavor combos for the banana pudding (the Nutella & cookie butter were soo good!). The pudding itself isn’t that sweet compared to others I’ve had. Some flavors weren’t available when I went (i.e Sat 8pm: Thai tea, lychee rose, cookie butter & strawberry banana for pudding flavors). A little sad bc I wanted to try those flavors however staff is very generous in letting you try the different flavors before deciding. I was still able to try several flavors and had a good experience. Street parking is tight but it’s worth it.

They have games you can play while your sitting there enjoying yourself. They also offer a gluten free option as well. It's a very clean and cozy place to grab a nice sweet treat. The staff was also very welcoming and helpful. I got to taste the puddings before I purchased them and I'm glad that's an option because it helped me narrow down what I wanted. I will definitely be coming back again.

Very cute and quaint location, I hadn’t checked out the back but the inside was bright and calm vibe. I came with the intent to try popular flavors I saw on TikTok but I got there and there were so many other flavors to try. My favorite was the blueberry cheesecake. I got it served with the lychee non banana flavor fresh strawberries and passion fruit drizzle. Rose who prepared my order and her co worker were very nice. I got a half pint and it was soo much I put it in the rest in the freezer and I think I might be on to something lol it doubles as a good ice cream

I tasted this banana pudding today and couldn’t believe how delicious it was. It was even better than Magnolia’s which I didn’t think was possible. I tried three flavors today- the classic which was my favorite, the coquito flavor which was delicious and even had flakes of coconut in it and finally the cookies and cream which was also divine. I’m ashamed to say how many servings I had because I totally went back for a second round. This recipe is delicious! Great job to the owners!

We stopped by MangoMango for dessert and it did not disappoint! The mango sticky rice was delicious — super fresh, the mango perfectly ripe, and the sticky rice paired so well with the scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. We also tried the dragon fruit ice cream, which was interesting but definitely has a very particular taste — I wouldn’t recommend it unless you already like dragon fruit. Overall, such a fun spot for a sweet treat. The mango sticky rice alone makes it worth the stop! 🍨

Milk & Cream Cereal Bar is a delightful spot for ice cream and cereal enthusiasts. They offer a variety of cereal-infused ice cream flavors that can be personalized with an array of toppings. In addition to their signature ice cream, they also serve milkshakes, cereal bowls, and pints for purchase. The unique concept allows customers to create their own customized ice cream by blending different cereals into the base.
The ice cream is extremely yummy and looks so good, snap couldn’t eat first lol. Our orders got a little discombobulated but the worker was amazing and got us situated right away. The vibes inside were cute with an open outdoor concept yet, they use lots of pastels and those get dingy. So certain frames seemed back room-ish. Overall, great spot for anyone from dates to family snack stops:)

I thought this was the cutest concept for an ice cream place especially if you love cereal. I decided to do a cone with a mix of Oreo and fruity pebbles with vanilla ice cream. They have this machine that mixes the cereal into the ice cream really well so it’s a beautiful blend. You literally end up creating your own version of a new ice cream. I might have overdone it with the caramel so that is the only thing that I would’ve taken out but overall it was such a cute experience. They have tons of indoor seating! The place was empty because it was really cold outside so it was perfect for me. Check it out if you’re in the Jersey City area.

Great tasting ice cream with plenty of variations to get creative with! Ice cream here is EXPENSIVE though. $9 for a cup. Although, they do give you a decent portion. The place is also noticeably cleaner than most eateries around here so applauds to that. They clean and rinse the machines pretty much in between every order. Highly recommend.

Friend had suggested this place for dessert. Reminded me a lot of momofuku milk bar but with more cereals to choose from. It was a pretty hot day when I went, so the line went very much out the door. Seating was limited, and the bar seating area was closed off. The ice cream itself was pricey for the amount that you get. It's novel in the fact that the cereal is blended into the ice cream, rather than sprinkled on top. The ice cream was definitely on the sweeter side and had less of a buttery texture (which I personally like in my soft serves). The toppings were ok. I wouldn't recommend going out of your way to come here but if you happen to be in the area need a cold dessert option, this isn't a bad place to check out.

16 Handles is a popular self-serve frozen yogurt chain that offers a wide range of rotating flavors and creative toppings. While not entirely vegan, it has dairy-free options, including the exclusive Oatly soft-serve ice cream with creamy and mildly sweet chocolate and chai flavors. Despite initial skepticism about the artificial-looking birthday cake flavor, it turned out to be delightful.
Writing an honest review can be beneficial for both shoppers and business owners. My experience at 16 Handles has always been a pleasant one. The place is very clean and organized, and the flavors are delicious. I enjoyed the variety of choices available. Above all, the customer service has always been professional and respectful.

Fresh out of Macao Trading Co, which had my pockets on life support, we decided we needed some dessert. Even with my pockets fighting for every last breath, I spent $14 here and wasn't even mad. I FULLY LOADED my bowl with 3 flavors of yogurt: vanilla, cookies and cream, and birthday cake. Upon putting the birthday cake on, it was a deep artificial yellow which was a major cause for concern. However, upon trying it, I had to eat my words. It was delightful. One of my best personality traits is to admit when I'm wrong. I'm sorry for judging you based off your artificial coloring, birthday cake flavor. They have an abundance of toppings, honestly any kind of topping one could ever wane for. I decided to go with crushed vanilla wafers, oreos, and one gummy worm on top for purely aesthetic purposes. I am an artist. The crushed vanilla wafers were the MVP of the bowl, tying the whole thing together making it ELITE. It made me oddly reminiscent of how Steve Nash tied those Phoenix Suns teams in the mid-2000s. People love to forget about Steve Nash smh. Don't worry Steve, I won't let them forget. I DEMOLISHED this bowl like Sheldon Brown DEMOLISHED Reggie Bush on that swing pass back in 07. Drew Brees lowkey set Reggie up tho smh. This is EASILY my favorite frozen yogurt place in the city, but granted I haven't tried THAT many. One star off cuz it's kind of dirty in there and as others have mentioned, the price is pretty steep lmao. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__

I visited this location a couple of days ago. The staff were very welcoming when we entered the location and greeted us. If you’re not familiar with 16 Handles is a store with a variety of frozen yogurts and a variety of toppings. There are also vegan and dairy free options. During certain season there are limited edition flavors available. In the past you were able to sample a flavor however I don’t believe the store is doing any samples due to COVID. There is hand sanitizer and gloves available for you to use. Once you get your selected flavors and toppings you go to the register where the staff weighs your dessert. The store accepts cash and cards. There is indoor seating is available as well as outdoor seating. Give it a try you may like it.

Jam Cakery Events is a popular spot for various events, including birthday parties and wedding cake tastings. The cakes are highly praised for their delicious flavors and beautiful designs. The bakery offers fun baking classes for kids, incorporating themes like superheroes, and provides a delightful experience for both children and adults. With its professional and friendly staff, Jam Cakery Events creates memorable moments through tasty treats and engaging activities.
We feel so lucky that we found Tere and Jam Cakery. It took us many tries to find a NY bakery that (1) could make a vegan wedding cake (2) wasn’t way too sickly sweet and (3) was within our budget. I’m an amateur vegan baker, so after 2 no-go cake tastings, I was prepared to give up and make our wedding cake myself – thankfully we found Jam Cakery shortly after and I’m so relieved we did. Not only is Tere very kind and warm, but she makes really, really good cake. We loved meeting her for our cake tasting, she was so flexible working with us to get the flavors we wanted (we landed on lemon basil cake with fresh strawberries and cream cheese buttercream), and understood our desire to not have the cake be overly sweet. She didn’t balk when we asked for 4 tiers (some bakers we talked to said vegan cake wasn’t structurally sound for that), and she hand delivered our cake on the big day. Our guests loved our cake, and many of them were shocked that it was vegan. Unlike so many wedding vendors out there, Jam Cakery doesn’t upcharge for weddings. I look forward to getting future celebration cakes from Tere. Photos courtesy of Heather Pauline.

This was the best raspberry ice cream I’ve had that wasn’t homemade in my own kitchen. The flavor was so strong, it brought back memories of my childhood picking fresh berries in the morning and making ice cream with my mother the same day.

Quirky little gelato spot. I tried a few flavours, and was surprised at how few I liked right away (because I’ve heard such good things about il laboratorio). Banana tasted so “green”, cherry like medicine, olive oil was basically vanilla and mocha was just a bit unbalanced? It was a good texture and I do like the size. $6 for a small w two flavours. But will not be running back.

This place was great. We got two different flavours, mocha and toasted marshmallow. If you love coffee and a little bitterness from the coffee while also getting the hints of chocolate mocha is perfect for you. The toasted marshmallow on the other hand might have become my favourite flavour of ice cream as of today. The sweetness of the marshmallow and the small hint of burnt flavours is the best for the feeling of campfire marshmallows. If those flavours aren’t for you there is a great variety of flavours. The service was great and fast. 摩卡咖啡味十足

I think this gelato is really solid!! I got the Thai tea and dark chocolate, and both were great. The dark chocolate is super deep and flavorful. I like the texture of all their gelatos a lot - it’s denser than most gelato. They let you sample a few flavors which is great. They have vegan sorbets too. Super fun flavors. Also normal flavors. The line sometimes gets long but moves pretty fast.

I have heard about this spot for years but never had the chance to try it until recently when I ordered a gelato cake from them for my birthday. Their offerings are extensive so there's something for everyone. Shockingly affordable at $49 for an 8-in cake, and the quality was superb! The cake is customizable and I chose fior di latte, mango, and black sesame. The crowd favorite was mango, but both the fior di latte and black sesame were wonderful and tasted very authentic and well made. You can just taste that they use high quality ingredients, and aren't trying to mask anything with tons of sugar and sweetness. I will definitely be back for their other flavors and this might be my new birthday cake spot from now on! :D

Bakery
The Old German Bakery in Hoboken, NJ is a family-owned establishment that has been serving the community for almost fifteen years. This café specializes in authentic German pastries and baked goods, as well as breakfast dishes and light fare. The bakery's menu features a variety of delicious treats such as strudels filled with raspberry-strawberry yogurt, apple, or strawberry-cheese. They also offer delectable cakes like beesting cake and German-style cake flavored with almond and vanilla.
My partner ordered a Black Forest cake for my birthday. I was very excited, and when I picked it up the owner was very insistent that this was a cake for family and close loved ones, not something to give away to anyone. I am so glad I listened to him and chose not to bring it to my birthday party. This is the best cake we have ever had, bar none. It is decadent but light, the chocolate used is the perfect amount of bitter to compliment the cherry and mousse fillings, and the kirsch soaked cherries are heaven. This cake is well worth the price, many times over! (The Mothman was our addition).

The sweet grandpa at the bakery was super enthusiastic, explaining every single bakery like his own baby, haha! Everything looked so fresh and delicious—I was only going to buy one but somehow ended up with four! 😂 The chocolate turnover is way better than the regular chocolate croissant in my opinion. Definitely coming back next time. Highly recommend! 🥐

Absolutely love the tomato pastry - it's my go to anytime I walk by and it's not a Monday. It's a flaky pastry pocket with tomato sauce and olive flavor. In the past there had been a more Parmesan heavy version which I miss. But this savory one still hits the spot. Also used to be some indoor seating but I get that the pandemic has changed things. Now it's stand outside the building which is still very charming. There's all sorts of other sweet treats, also a fan of the chocolate pastries. Absolutely worth a visit.

This Bakery in Hoboken is a delightful spot for authentic German pastries and baked goods. Every slice is packed with rich flavors, especially the fruit and cream varieties. The Black Forest cake and German chocolate cake are absolute must-tries—they’re moist, decadent, and full of traditional taste. The owner’s passion for baking shines through in every bite, and his friendly behavior adds a personal touch to the experience. While the bakery can get busy during peak hours, the wait is well worth it for the quality and authenticity of the treats. If you’re in Hoboken craving a taste of Germany, this charming bakery should be at the top of your list!

Simply love the place. A no frills, easy on pocket bakery serving the best authentic Germany desserts and bakery items. Family owned and operated and serving the fresh right out of oven. A must visit if you are in the neighborhood.

This place has been open only with a cart in front of the actual bakery for at least past couple years I think. Not sure why they don’t accomodate customers into their bakery. Because it’s been only with a cart, I haven’t been curious enough to try out but grabbed couple of those pastries recently. Pastry parts overall felt crunchy, thin, and little bit dry. Pastry itself was neither yay nor nay for me. I just imagined that’s how german style pastry is. I liked the flavor of savory tomato one but not so much for raspberry sweet cheese one. Latter had very subtle flavor of anything, so it wasn’t exactly spot on to my palate.
J K — Google review
The pastries, especially the savory ones, are some of the best I’ve had. The lattice pastry with leeks is a must try, and anything with raspberry in it is incredible.
Lou L — Google review
You have to try this bakery if you’re in the area cause I know if you’re a local you must know it. They have so many options: Bread, cakes, pastry. Just stop by and try it. My dad used to love the coffee so it must be good as well. I like that the cakes are not that sweet, it’s subtle which I like more. You can tell it’s a family business which makes it more adorable :)

Informal Greek venue offering baking to take home & a light menu of Mediterranean specials.
Nice place! Liked their bagel with salmon (bagel bread itself is super delicious and crunchy) and chickpea salad. Coffee isn’t the best but still good with dessert. Everything’s new and clean inside. Definitely coming back when I’m in Hoboken next time.

Were hanging out at Pier A when had a craving for coffee, searched for it on google maps and didnt realize we were in for a pleasant surprise. The cafe is so beautiful, clean, fancy. The desserts are delicious. We got the wrapped waffle and every bite was chocolate heaven. We also got the mango & banana smoothie and it was out of this world. Their assortment of teas were a perfect addition to the chocolate. The man making the coffees was super kind, informative, and friendly. Will DEFFINITLY be coming here again. Thank you for the amaizng experience!!!

This large airy shop with ample seating has everything you could want from Greece. ..except maybe an olive bar, but I might have missed it. Good breads, sweets, sandwiches, even a frozen dessert bar. I visited the first day, and when I asked for Baklava, I was given Galaktoboureko - which was actually a better choice to round out my selections. Best wishes for these people, i am sure i will return.
Barney S — Google review
I really wish I could say I like this place but I cant we have gone there numerous times after seeing posts on Instagram that look delicious. Unfortunately for us. The taste isnt there. After having been to Greece I cant say this is greek from Greece. The flavor is bland and doesn't scream authentic greek. It looks amazing and photographs beautifully but doesn't taste like that. When spending this kind of money I would expect better. They have a great vibe going in the restaurant. Everything else is 5 star except the most important. Dont bother ordering the frappe here it is entirely too strong and not even made correctly.

I can't get enough of this place. The baklava is the best I've ever had, Casper makes an awesome cappuccino, the spinach pie is very good and its worth every penny. Thanks again ladies and gentlemen of GFG.

I used to like this place when it first opened but looks like a lot has changed. The staff was rude and almost gave me an old slice of pie that was just for display, I asked her to give me another one from the fresh one and said it’s the same thing ( well… I know it’s the same thing, it’s just that one is fresh and the other has been hanging out all day!!) The prices are also way too high for the quality you’re getting, I got a Greek cheese pie which they shouldn’t call cheese at all cause it had 99% dough and 1% of cheese (see pictures) there was so much dough in it that the inside was raw & not even baked.

Bucket & Bay has great gelato!! They always have a few alcohol-infused flavors on the board, as well as sorbet and vegan options. I love that all their cones are not only homemade but also gluten free! The size of their scoops are also pretty decent.

Cute little place for different types of coffee, croissants, fudge. I liked the raw setup. Sadly, they were out of options we wanted to try, but whatever we tried was yummy. I liked the tomato croissant a lot. If you are lucky you will get a place to sit otherwise tha place is really spaceous but with less seating options.

Unique gelato flavors, both alcoholic and non, had me going back two days in a row. First day I tried Red Eye (a coffee-loke flavor) with purple sticky rice (lighter flavor), while two friends tried their chocolate flavor. Note that the chocolate tastes very rich. Then we noticed Bucket & Bay also offers a whiskey gelato flight of 4 flavors... so we came to try that the next day. I plan to be back when in the area. Helps that they have free Wi-Fi and a PokéStop nearby!

Ben & Jerry’s is a beloved ice cream chain hailing from Vermont, celebrated for its imaginative and whimsically named flavors. This delightful spot offers a variety of options, including non-dairy ice creams made with almond milk or sunflower butter, ensuring that everyone can indulge in their sweet cravings. Flavors like Strawberry Cheezecake and Cherry Garcia are just the tip of the iceberg! The atmosphere may be cozy, but it adds to the charm as you savor your scoop or pint.
As a dessert lover, I decided to try this famous ice cream place. I wouldn’t say it’s the most delicious one — I’ve definitely had better — but the atmosphere was really nice. You can tell they care about customer satisfaction. The service was good too. I tried the cherry, caramel, and strawberry flavors — the caramel one stood out the most. I liked that you can add extra toppings (though of course, it costs extra). Overall, it was a pleasant experience — definitely something worth trying at least once.

The ice cream: Ben and Jerry’s Of course their ice cream is great (though my daughter didn’t like the Marshmallow Sky Swirl flavor… didn’t taste like marshmallow). The service: Really not good. I asked for a regular cone (got the extra cost dipped in sprinkles). My husband asked for a large Caramel Macchiato Milkshake and got a small. As we were checking out I was completing the frequent customer club form and told her prior to her ringing us up I was doing it. I said it again to please let it go through (no one was behind us). She quick rung it up and told my husband to swipe (he wasn’t there when I told her to wait for it) and he tapped his card and it went through. I said to her I just asked you to wait for the code; were you able to put it in? She said no you can just do it next time. Well don’t worry there won’t be a next time. Way too many other options to go to in Hoboken and the service made the ice cream totally not worth it. Gave two stars because the ice cream itself was overall good Ben and Jerry’s ice cream, but this place of business had bad service.

I came for Mother’s Day and it was not to packed. I sent my partner in to get me one scoop of chocolate. The server said there was none left. He walked out with my chocolate ice cream. Apparently she had some. They charged $15 for one scoop of chocolate ice cream. A cup of strawberry, and vanilla. i think that pretty expensive for what is given. Other wise decent ice cream.

I really like this ban and Jerry's ice cream place. There is a lot of verity and the ice cream is always fresh. There making their own ice cream cone. There is also a frozen yogurt options. The place is small, but it's ok if you only eating your ice cream and go. And also cheap compared to other Ice cream places. We always take one for 2 because it's really big. The big bucket cost 45$ !

Such a wonderful place in Jersey City Heights. I always recommend to anyone visiting. The ice cream is homemade and delicious so creamy and light bursting with natural flavor. The owners are so friendly and welcoming and always accommodating!! Very clean crepes always fresh and it’s such a joy to watch it being made. Highly recommend!

I don't know who Angel is, considering the staff were all Indian when we were here--but I'm glad she likes Lotus Biscoff as much as I do. The double scoop I got of this flavor was every bit as creamy and baby cookie-y as I wanted. I'd skip the bubble tea, though--unless you like the artificial, food-colored, syrupy type. The Honeydew bubble tea was a nuclear shade of green that would probably give you a third arm (or telekinesis), and tasted like an AI-designed imagining of what honeydew might taste like.

Best staff and best ice cream and crepes on the heights. The staff was friendly and kind to the max. They were helpful, thoughtful, and welcoming. The crepes were sooo tasty and they had some of the most fun flavors I've seen in quite some time. We will definitely be back We're still eating, at first we said we would only eat half because the serving was big. I've been writing this review and had two bites, I looked over to find 80% of the crepe and ice cream gone and a look of guilt across my boyfriends face. He meekly said " it's too good, I can't stop".

We ordered rolled ice cream and crepes. Ice cream tasted ok but I think it is overpriced for the quality. But the main issue with my experience here was the service was really poor. I waited 20 minutes for a crepe and I was in a rush and since my order was not ready after 20 minutes I kindly asked them to cancel my order. They refused to do it and did not even apologize. I really do not recommend it here. You can find way better quality ice cream and crepes for the same price around here.
