Best Family Style Restaurants in Hoboken

My wife and I celebrated our 10 year anniversary at Hawksmoor last night. The ambience, service and the food were exceptional. For appetizers we had the scallops ( best dish of the night ) and the potted beef. For our main we went with the porterhouse for two and the beef fat fries. Steak was cooked perfectly and the fries were amazing. For dessert we had the pavlova and a anniversary surprise.

We had an excellent experience af Bad Roman. The babka, truffle penne luongo, short rib papparadelle, and chocolate torte were all to die for. Some of the best Italian I've had outside of Italy. And they gave my wife and I a card and a glass of champagne for our anniversary. Great experience!

It was a very busy Valentine’s Day and the staff did well keeping up. It did lack its usual personal touch but the food compensated. The “Amore” singing was a very nice holiday touch.

I picked this restaurant by looking at online reviews. I could not have made a better choice. Our reservation was on time. We walked in, sat down and were immediately greeted by our server. Emily was her name. She was without a doubt, one of the best servers I have ever had the pleasure of working with she treated my wife and me as if we were her only customer and we were the most important people in the restaurant. It was truly a special occasion for us. The food was everything that she had said it would be and everything that I read online. It was fabulous. We took her suggestions for some of the dishes we got and every suggestion she made was fantastic. I will go back to Carmines anytime I’m in New York City.

The food is delicious. There are so many good options to choose from. We had the garlic shrimp, clams in a red sauce, mussels in a green sauce, and paella. All very good. And the service was great! The staff was very friendly. Great restaurant!
