Best Restaurants for People Watching in Hoboken

Delicious dinner at the Russian Tea Room! My husband had the sea bass and I had the scallops. The atmosphere is as romantic as it ever was. The prices are a bit high, but the food was wonderful and this is a special place. It’s a New York icon for a reason. On a side note, any negative reviews I’ve read were for tea. Despite the name, I don’t think this is really a tea place. Go for dinner, and you won’t be disappointed. All the dinner reviews were glowing.

Everything was absolutely amazing. Our waiter was so accommodating and understanding. The food was incredible. The fish was fresh and beautifully plated. The overall ambiance of the restaurant makes you feel as though you are dining in a movie. I recommend booking a dinner reservation. The ambient lighting, jazz music, and magical views of the cityscape create an enchanting, and intimate feel hard to replicate!

Outstanding dining experience. Our 8th time going for dinner or brunch. Dinner is excellent, but the brunch is hands down the best in New York City. Hesitate to write a review because it is obvious that in the next couple months it will be impossible to get in. The setting/ambience is stunning. What you'd expect from a massive budget from RH. Staff is like Four Seasons hotel. And the food is unbelievable. You'll struggle to figure out what to order and so you'll do what we do...which is to go back. Whatever you order at brunch, make sure to include the Swedish Pancakes...possibly the best pancakes on the planet. Sweet potato is not to be missed (brunch or dinner!). I heard another diner today (patriarch of what appeared to be an elegant Southern family) say "the avocado dish was epic". I think I'll have to go back myself to verify!

An amazing dining experience at the Strip House on Valentine's night! Even with the VDay busy night, we really enjoyed our evening. Courtney Eckert the GM and her team made the night special. Always excellent food, sips and ambience! Much appreciate the service by Laura our server too. The Strip House is our fave Steakhouse in NYC! We will be back again soon!.

Came here for the first time with my girlfriend on Valentine’s Day. We were welcomed and seated quickly. Our waitress was very attentive even though it was a busy evening. The food came out fast and was absolutely delicious (we ordered the salmon, steak frites, mac and cheese and mash potatoes). Only small complaint was that the mash potatoes was cold but the waitress addressed this issue easily and got us another one. The drinks were delicious and the atmosphere was very romantic. Our waitress even helped us take some pictures together. Overall wonderful experience and we will be going back for sure. 10/10 would recommend.
