Jenn Pedde: The goat cheese salad is incredible. Goes great with the house red wine, too.
Snooty Waiter: Hamilton's Potato Pierogis are perfectly pan fried and served with caramelized onion and a truffle sour cream. The complexity of sweet n savory, hot n cold, soft n crisp textures all dance perfectly.

Felipe P.: Great restaurant. Nice ambiance, friendly service, and fantastic food. Mofongos with chicharrones, Vaca Frita, Bisteca palomitas... All good!
gil mojica: Huge portions and amazing food
Brendan Raftery: This is just such a great restaurant. Cool vibe. Fantastic food with generous portions. Great drinks. Probably one of my favorite spots in Jersey City
Jenny Lee: Generous menu! Wait time can be long, but worth it. Try classics like Chicken Pot Pie. Recommend the Tuscan Chicken as lighter, healthy fare. Save room to share a slice of cheesecake. Or get your own!
Fulya Seref: Steaks and cheesecakes and ambiance and waiters and waiteress are all excellent!! The reason to visit Jersey City again :))
S E: They have huge servings so be prepared. The service was great and the food was just as good.
Vishal Shah: They make some of the best brick oven pizza in NJ. Definitely get the meatballs and bread/butter too.
Larry Fish: Everything is wonderful . Cheese and bread are executed with perfection! Nothing extra to hide flavor, just the delicious food
Jason Hopple: Looking for the BEST homemade pizza, look no further. Wood-fired with seasonal additions throughout the year!! Keep up the great hospitality!!

Carl Figueiredo: Great value. BYOB. Get the Shepard salad w/feta and the dips for the excellent bread (hummus, baba ganoush, etc.). The Adana Kebab was a home run as we.
O K: Nice little addition to the Paulus Hook neighborhood (replacing Kitchen Cafe). Lunch specials are a good deal - try any of the kebabs with the spicy vegetable spread. Decent baba and jajik as well.
Ritesh U: The Iskendar kebab is excellent

Indian Restaurant · Journal Square · 27 tips and reviews
Sigalle Barness: Best Indian food. If you like your food extra spicy, pair the lamb vindaloo with the chili naan and wash it down with a mango lassi. Perfection!
Stephanie S.: Believe the hype about the buffet! For about $12/ person (not including taxes), perfect if want to try dishes unfamiliar with and if famished/ craving. Another fave-- aloo tikki!!!
Sudhir Pullamsetty: Buffet is good
