    Where do i start: First I was not told the item i ordered had missing ingredients (salad was missing arugula and I only wanted to order it for the arugula) Food was not good. The only thing good were their wings & cauliflower appetizer Flatbread was chewy and burger buns were burnt. Steak sauce was expired However I would’ve let this all slide until I realized after leaving they DID NOT tell my party that 20% gratuity was already added and the server stood there watching me talk about the tip machine and how the options for tips were so low (3-7%) and I wanted to give more - ended up double tipping at 40% I’m all for tipping our servers but it’s the principal.

    Very disappointed with the food. Actually disgusted. Started with calamari and I thought I was actually eating rubber— that’s how chewy it was. Didn’t eat any at all. For entree I got a grilled chicken Cesar salad. Chicken wasn’t done and when I complained about it, it wasn’t taken off the receipt or get me a new one and I had to just eat the salad and not the meat. Probably the worst restaurant I have ever been to and I highly advise everyone to stay clear of this place. If you don’t believe me, believe the picture I took of the chicken.

    One and my girlfriends and I got together to catch up. When we arrived I was lucky to find parking on the street nearby. I have rode past this place many times and never noticed it. We walked into this cute bar and grill. We sat at the bar and was served by Brandy and she was very nice. I only had a drink of merlot. My friend ordered wings and Jameson & ginger ale. She enjoyed both. The bill was affordable and we enjoyed our time here.

    The drinks were amazing I had the Misunderstood Mojito and it didn’t disappoint, the spiked lemonade was alright too tart for my liking and the rose garden was delicious. The appetizers were tasty, seasoned well I just wish there was more calamari , the cauliflower bites were the best thing. It really had a great play on fried chicken wings. The entrees on the other hand were not great, the spicy chicken sandwich was dryyyyy and lacked seasoning and my friends steak had no seasoning at all. If we knew this we would’ve just finished our meal with the small eats and been on our way. Overall it is a cute spot for small bites and drinks.

    I discovered Jersey Social a few months back midway thru the pandemic in June of 2020 driving to Target and bookmarked the restaurant. I finally decided to go on a Sunday. Arrived at 6:45pm. Sat right away. Service was provided promptly. I am so glad I saved this restaurant to come visit. The drinks and the food were very good. The vibe and ambiance was perfect. The prices were also affordable. Everyone was very friendly and service was attentive. The bartender and waitress told me and my guest to make sure we come on the weekend for Saturday's drag show brunch or Sunday's brunch with a DJ. We are making our reservation. I truly had a very enjoyable evening. I recommend anyone to give it a try and I definitely will be back.

    We decided to give this place a try for our anniversary dinner and wow - we were not disappointed. The food was both creative and delicious. Highly recommend the General Tso's Cauliflower. For dinner I had the Pasta Primavera which was also excellent. The perfect amount of sauce over al dente noodles and fresh seasonal veggies. For cocktails I had the El Mentor (highly recommend) and she had the Mule (a grapefruit infused take on a Moscow Mule). Both were excellent. The service was very friendly and attentive without being overbearing. High grades to the waitstaff as well. We'll definitely be coming back here and recommending to our friends in the JC/Hoboken area!

    This place is good hangout with friends. Drinks are the spotlight of this restaurant, had some amazing ones. Starters are also really yum, although found main course kinda ok ok. They recently had a dessert menu change, we were suggested a fancy one which turned out to be mediocre. Tasted good, but not worth the price. I would recommend this place for quick starters and drink!

    The staff abs the service was excellent. The only downside to the Chicken & Waffle is that the batter used to fry the chicken has too much salt. Which is unfortunate.

    Good food and hosts many great events (live music/DJ, watch parties, etc). Nice community bar perfect for a drink after work, or brunch with friends on the weekend.

    Great experience. Some of the best chicken wings I have ever had…tasty sauce and the breading was perfect. Refreshing Aperol Spritz cocktail to go along with it. Stayed for the night watching the NBA playoffs and enjoyed the vibe here a lot. Will be back.

    Came here on a Tuesday with some friends and had one of the best espresso martinis I've ever had. It was only $8 for Happy Hour. Plus my friends loved the chicken wings. So fun, such a good deal. Highly recommend!

    Went here for brunch with a few people. It’s a good casual spot. We had the burger, salad, avocado toast, and chicken and waffles. Everything was good and service was great. It’s a bit outside of the downtown JC area. Seems like a good local spot for those living the apartment complexes above it. Good atmosphere overall and would go again.

    Went to watch the Cricket World Cup today which was a ticketed event - for about $30 through eventbrite. I don’t know if anyone checked the tickets at any point . But mine wasn’t and looked like there were just people who entered randomly. But breakfast / coffee , which was supposed to be included was getting charged at 8 am . I ended up getting coffee - and I was told the free “included” coffee is done being served. It was just a very confusing situation after having paid $30 for the event . The bar itself is good, but seems like the owners need to step up the coordination and event management in the future especially if you are showing big games with massive fan following . Personally , I just threw 30$ down the drain and had zero service except for a spot to watch .

    Been here for the cricket World Cup matches and the vibe was just great! Props to the entire Jersey Social team for efficiently handling so many people and serving everyone with the utmost efficiency. Would definitely keep visiting to this place!

    Superb ambiance and service. Very professional team. Charged up atmosphere for World Cup matches. They opened restaurant/bar at 3 am so that people can watch cricket World Cup from beginning. Thank you to Arun and his team. Food and drinks were great 👌👌 Sandwiches, breakfast items were delicious 😋 Highly recommend for drinks, food and party 🎊

    The service was amazing and very caring. The soy garlic chicken wings and the cheesecake is an absolute must. The lobster roll (Connecticut style) was also pretty good. The wings were cooked to perfection and the flavoring was divine. The cheesecake was my favorite. It was not too rich and not too sweet. I will definitely be going back.

    Loved the ambiance and place , Food was good too. Baos are just awesome and lamb burger was great too, but texture can be better. Spicy chicken sandwich is really spicy, can be offered in different spice levels.

    Visited this place once back in July 2021. Must say this place has some cool vibe! The staff was polite and the service was good. Had ordered a vegan burger 🍔 along with fries. I remember the burger being freshly made, the buns were so soft that they melted the moment I put them in my mouth. The fries were fresh and piping hot and perfectly as they should be. The price is decent for the restaurant and yeah! I hope to be back someday. P.s. they have parking inside the building, which is a big positive.

    Food was pretty good and the staff was polite. No complaints! Would visit again if I’m in the area. I got the mimosa flight and the regular breakfast option with 3 eggs

    Lovely place! The food and drinks were delicious. I was slightly annoyed that I was charged $2 for a slice of cheese...CHEESE. It would've been nice to be told that while I was ordering like how other places would usually give me the heads up. Just to give me courtesy.

    Went there last night spare of the moment with a large party (7). Quick to seat us, but downhill from there. Extremely slow service. To the point that half our entrees came out with a 15 minute pause until everyone received their food. That's just summed up in one word... unacceptable. As for the foos itsel. I would consider it average at best (and that is being modest). This place clearly caters for the crowd that likes to get drunk and will eat anything offered to sober them up. Sadly thst business model will succeed in today's marketplace, but I won't be a returning customer.

    I love the food here, its always a good time and the service staff are super nice too. They have an awesome menu with affordable prices as well.

    What a fun place! I love ping pong and I love meeting new people so this was the perfect place for me. It's got a cool vibe, the music is on point and the drinks are really good. I also went on a Friday night where they have ping pong pros that you can challenge for drinks and prizes. I thought I was good at ping pong but after playing with these guys, I realized that I still have a lot of work to do. Nevertheless I had an amazing time and will definitely recommend going with a good group of friends (or a date ;)
