The owner was present the day we went and he was super friendly and helped us make the birthday for her even better. There was hookah, multiple seats, a second floor, gender neutral bathroom, byob and plenty of street parking. The food was authentic Cuban food with a fusion twist. Everything was delicious. We all ordered different things so we could try each others plates . Everything was 10/10. At the end of the night we got dessert and hookah and our bill was only $230! Not expensive at all for the amount we drank and ate. Absolutely will come back to this place again and again. I highly recommend this to anyone on a date, solo or in a group. Place has such a nice Caribbean vibe to it with Cuban music and decorations. The staff is friendly and everyone is welcoming. Give them a try !

Finally a nice sit down restaurant in my neighborhood!!! West Bistro is a new cuban spot located on…read morethe Westside of Jersey City. Ive been a resident of West Bergen JC for decades and sadly its been barren on food choices outside of fast food and chain restaurants. This place has come at a perfect time to the westside with all the new developments in the area. We came in on a sunday and had the place to ourselves. The decor is nice! I remember when it was another establishment so they did a very good job woth their improvements. The hostess and waitress were very nice. Its a BYOB restaurant so we brought our own wine BUT they have sangria and its free and all u can drink if u tag them on social media which is a great marketing tactic because who doesn't love a free drink?! We ended up taking our wine home and just going to town on the sangria which was very good!! Now lets get to the food. Moderately priced. We started with the shrimp scampi bruschetta, very strong in taste maybe from the white wine but it was good. For entrees we have the Vaca Frita and Skirt Steak. The meat was tender and flavorful. My Vaca Frita was a bit too lime for me, but still very delicious!!! It was served with rice and black beans! I saw ordered some sweet plantains! They were bomb! Crispy on the outside and tender and sweet in the middle!! So good!! I def want to return and try other items on the menu!! Overall great date night! So glad we gave them a try! Please support small local businesses like this one!! We desperately need them in our community. Thanks West Bistro for the great service and food! We will be back for sure and will def spread the word!!!!!!

This had gotta be one of the most delicious burgers I've ever had in my life! We got the American…read morewagyu burger, and we were obsessed. The buns were perfectly toasted. It was sweet with a hint of sweetness. The sauce makes this burger dreamy. It was rich but not overpowering. It didn't take away the rich flavor of the wagyu. The real star was the burger patty. It was well-seasoned but still maintained a beefy wagyu flavor. It was juicy with a hint of the charred aroma from the cast iron. Man...this burger was perfect. Unpopular opinion, the size of this burger was perfect for me. I like my burger in bite-able size. Oh! Don't forget to get the fries.

In honor of black history month AND womens history month I finally made my way to Crave Burger…read moreCafe. I was lucky to be there when both the co-owners were the only 2 working. I didn't ask if they were husband and wife but would be totally cute if they are. They had signs making it very clear patience is required as meals are made fresh upon order. As I waited for my to-go order I noticed the condiments along the entire bar wall. The Himalayan salt was so iconic to see! I personally don't recall ever seeing a fast food burger joint serve Himalayan salt as table condiments. Nice standout. They also have a cigar selection, which I found interesting (or oddly random). But, hey, get your coins! Lol The Food: I don't like these type of fries; they were cooked fresh however & overflowing. If you like 5 Guys or The Great Steak fries, you'll like these. I'm more of a McDonald's/Chikfila gal in terms of fast food French fries. The burger was good! The marinade they grill the burger in mixed with their special sauce on top was a tasty combination. They had flyers--a rarity these digital days, so I took one & posted it in my community. No matter my preference, I'll always share a good black owned or black woman owned business with others to encourage at least one try. Go, enjoy

I'm a big guy but I'm pretty conservative about where I spend my money and I just felt like I could have had more. Do I think the flavors were good, absolutely. But for the community, it's rough. I want everyone to eat good food but only if it's affordable. It's not just this one but others too. Service was good. And the interior it felt rustic and diner like, which I actually like. Only reason why I'm knocking it is price to portion ratio for the lunch special. But flavors, service is good in my book

When you walk in, the aesthetic feels a little unfinished, almost like they're still moving in, but do not let that influence your expectations. The food does all the talking. I ordered the boneless jerk chicken platter, the chicken curry roti, and grabbed a beef patty from the display. I started with the beef patty flaky, warm, perfectly structured, and stuffed with incredibly seasoned meat. It practically melted in my mouth. Easily one of the freshest, most flavorful patties I've ever had. The boneless jerk chicken meal was outstanding. The chicken was moist with a subtle smoky flavor and a perfect kick from the jerk sauce. Paired with plantains and rice, it all came together beautifully. The chicken curry roti was just as impressive. The aroma alone hits you the second you open the wrapper. The curry was rich, flavorful, and the bone-in chicken inside was so tender it fell right off the bone. And the staff there was outstanding the woman that helped me was very nice. Very respectful all around amazing. Portions are generous, flavors are authentic, and everything tastes freshly made. I highly, highly recommend this spot to anyone craving phenomenal Jamaican food. This place is the real deal.

Cute place where you order at the counter and then pick a table. There are around 6-10 tables but…read morenot many tables for big groups, the tables are glued to floor so you can't move two together. They have regular burgers, chicken patty and an impossible patty on the menu along with fries, shakes and fried Oreos. I got the impossible burger. I forgot to ask for pickles and they were so nice to give them to me in a cup on the side. Also free water, and it's seltzer! Just ask for a water cup. There is cheese on the impossible burger, doesn't say it's vegan cheese so I suspect it's regular cheese, making this is a vegetarian burger rather than vegan The burger I know is vegan but tasted undercooked and soggy. I liked the bun and toppings, it was a pretty simple sandwich and it was filling enough. $12 though. The fries were the highlight. Huge cup of perfectly cooked and seasoned fries! Got some big long ones, I love when that happens. My friends liked their food as well but said the chicken patty had too many onions. They said the fried Oreos were delicious. The staff were nice and friendly. I would come again!

For living in NJ for nearly my entire life, I never stepped foot inside a Tacoria. Now living in…read moreJersey City, I couldn't avoid seeing it only a couple streets away from where I live. Looking for a quick dinner, I decided to come here on a whim. Because it was raining pretty decently, I opted to eat inside. There's a small size dining area in the back, though the ordering area and hallway leading there is a bit narrow. Anyhow, for those who are new, the concept is similar to Chipotle, except that they create everything for you behind the scenes. I basically opted for the burrito bowl except with the vegan chorizo (Tacorizo). Before adding the sauces, the Tacorizo had a good amount of heat to it. I simply added the two mildest sauces and it was just enough. Bowl tasted great and it was obviously very filling. Good spot for a quick bite.

S/o to the Yelp event for sponsoring some of my food (cuz obviously you gotta get more when you…read morecan, duh!). That being said, the habanero sweet orange sauce and the elite corn they have from the sides menu... Best things I ate there! I don't even know what that orange mayo like sauce was on that corn but it made me sad knowing I only had two cute baby corns to eat, I just wanted to keep getting kernels in my teeth for that cob. And the habanero sauce, was downright slurpable. I didn't bother drizzling when you can just take a shot of it after every bite of either taco, burrito, whatever you get. Had to separate this paragraph for the tacos I got. I got 4 tacos. A pollo pastor, a shredded chicken, regular pollo, and regular carne asada. Now pollo and carne asada, nothing too special. Standard but with the way they sauce it and present it, I can say solid taco. The pollo pastor...as someone who can't eat pork, this was a blast to eat. They use mini chunk pineapple and put a good amount of condiments to balance it all out. Chicken not dry and super flavorful. Also enjoy the single tortilla over double. Less carbs. Now that shredded chicken. While not dry, I don't know where that bite was taking me. I just wasn't feeling it and I can't pinpoint why. I don't know if it's the extra stuff on top of it, or the fact that the corn was my fave but the side sauces didn't help. I'd def come back for the other 3 but not that shredded one. That limonada was sooooo good and refreshing! I thought I'd get horchata when I had the chance but because that limonada was hitting right, didn't even bother. And the fact it's like unlimited refills if you get a drink, totally worth it! Overall, I appreciate the patience of the manager and cashier. They were really nice and helpful. The interior was sick too. Repurpose lockers for chairs. Baseball stadium chairs. Definitely tight but just right. I was struggling finding spots for Mexican food, I have a pretty high standard for it, but I'll give this a solid/perfection score lol
