We had a reservation for Martha's for dinner on a weekend. Because its downtown Hoboken expect street parking! The ambiance is nice and has tons of seating. It's a cute spot. Service was a little slow but it wasn't a big deal. We got the baja shrimp tacos as an app which were delicious. Then for entrees we got sausage fusilli calabrese pasta with the garlic bread (paid extra) and Martha's burger. Burger was average but the pasta was good. Overall I wasn't blown away by the place but it's a good spot to keep in mind if needed. read more

Really pleasant neighborhood space. Decent selection of draft beer, a few of them local. Served in tiny glasses. Noticed the same thing with wine pourings; tiny glasses / tiny pours. We were there as happy hour ended, so perhaps it was a happy hour thing, but was left with the impression they were a tiny pour establishment. Had heard that their crispy cauliflower nuggets were a specialty, so gave them a try. Very pleasant. Light breading, good crunch, great flavor. Recommend, and would be surprised if we ever came and didn't order. Split a house salad. Good and plenty to share. Just a bit inconvenient to try to split at the table on to small plates. No fresh utensils between courses. Wait person just moved the forks and knifes off the plates back onto the table as they removed the empty plates. Something I've always found off putting and cheap at what otherwise seems a nice restaurant. Wife got the steak frites, which was clearly the best dinner choice. Nice sized piece of well charred hangar steak with a good pile of wonderfully crispy fries. I got the sausage fusilli calabrese. Some chunks of really tasty house made sausage. The pasta appeared to be house made as well; long strands though without the usual fusilli curliness. Honestly, they tasted fine, but looked very much like a bowl of pasta earthworms. If the pasta shape is adjusted, I might recommend or order again. A nice comfortable place with a few opportunities for improvement. read more

I went to Martha's during lunch with my colleagues. The interior is a nice vibe that fits anything from a lunch with coworkers to brunch with family. Our server did a great job of explaining the menu options. We ordered some apps and then ordered the steak frites. The steak was cooked to perfection. It also came with a nice salad, perfectly crispy French fries and we added on some very addicting garlic bread. This is definitely a spot I will be returning to! read more

Stopped here after work with friend to grab cocktails and apps. The vibe was perfect and low lighting spoke to a good date night spot. We ended up sharing the pork dumplings, truffle fries and the martha's burger. We sat at the bar and the service seemed great. The food was solid and this seems like a good neighborhood staple for uptown locals. read more

Went with 6 of us for brunch and then 4 friends joined us. Nice place, service was fantastic and so was the food. The only reason not 5 stars was the portions were on the smaller side for the prices. read more

Martha's was the first restaurant we visited when we touched down at Newark for our family vacation in Hoboken/NYC. We could not have picked a better place to enjoy dinner after a long flight! Per our very friendly waiter's recommendations, we ordered the octopus, crab spaghetti, and brick chicken to share amongst the four of us. Everything tasted so delicious! Each dish had tons of flavor without being too heavy or oily. Even my dad thought the food here was good, and he is usually very difficult to please! I would 1000% come back again. read more

Martha's is such a hidden gem for Hoboken! Causal but still elevated. Also shoutout to whomever is in charge of the music selection, 10/10! The staff is so friendly and the service is quick! Drink: Bottle of Flora Prosecco Very light and crisp Food: Mini lobster and shrimp rolls, fries & broccolini The lobster and shrimp roll is to DIE FOR. I wish it was an entree bc of how delicious it is. Fries were cooked perfectly (i recommend trying with the truffle aioli!). I was a disappointed with the broccolini's lack of flavor. All in all, I will definitely be back for those lobster rolls! read more

I had never heard of Martha's, until a friend recommended. I absolutely loved it! Our service by Ayse was very good. I told her I was GF and she made some suggestions. After ordering something else, she convinced me the Brick chicken might be a better choice. I could not have agreed more. The chicken might be the best chicken dish I've ever had. It was absolutely delicious! I also had the house salad & loved the dressing. My husband ate the sausage pasta dish and the meatballs. He enjoyed everything as well. A little off the beaten, path in Hoboken, but definitely a must try! I can't wait to go back! read more

A charming restaurant on a corner in uptown Hoboken with a large dining room, lots of bar seating and a very friendly staff- this is a great location for a casual or intimate dinner with a date, family or friends (or all of the above!). The food was pricy but delicious and they had happy hour specials that convinced us to try some new drinks and apps. 5 stars if you're aware of the price point here. We walked out at about $65 per person after tax and tip (splitting an app between 2 and about 1 drink per person). read more

Great addition to Hoboken! It's a beautiful restaurant with quick service. First tried Martha's over the summer and had the crab spaghetti, filet mignon cheesesteak and truffle parmesan fries. Everything came out hot and the fries were perfectly crispy. Went back recently and tried the burrata, crispy calamari and pork belly bao buns for appetizers. For our main dishes we got the burger, cheesesteak and fries. Although it's a bit pricey, the quality of the food is great and they have an all day happy hour menu with good options. Overall, enjoyed every dish and would order again. Looking forward to going back soon! read more

A very beautiful spot in Hoboken! My friend and I went for an early dinner on a Monday and it was pretty quiet until around 6:30 pm. The ambiance is very pretty! We had 2 servers who were so sweet and brought out everything very fast. For drinks I ordered the espresso martini and my friend got a cosmo. For entrees I ordered the salon and I highly recommend ordering this! Salmon was cooked perfectly and the orzo was creamy and hearty. read more

LEMON RICOTTA PANCAKES - blueberry compote, fresh berries, whipped cream It was delicious! WILD MUSHROOM OMELETTE caramelized onions, gruyere, choice of salad or fries YUM! Added BACON on the SIDE As you can see in the photos the presentation of the food was beautiful and the food was delicious! Kudos to the chef. We had a great experience dining here and will definitely return again!!! read more

Bottom line first: Order the salmon! (And bring cash to save on the 3.5% credit card surcharge.) Everything we ordered was cooked well and a solid 4 stars, but wouldn't necessarily make me crave a return visit to Martha's... except the salmon, which I will 100% come back just to eat it again. + SPANISH OCTOPUS A LA PLANCHA ($18): The octopus was so tender and even my 4-year-old was a fan! The red pepper aioli wasn't my favorite though. - ROASTED BROCCOLINI ($12): Would skip this next time. Felt more steamed broccolini than roasted. + MAC AND CHEESE ($14): This app was my 4-year-old's main dish and she loved it. As expected from a baked mac and cheese from a restaurant--creamy, stringy, nice texture from the garlic panko. + ROASTED SALMON ($28): We asked for medium rare and the salmon was perfectly cooked, but the star was the sweet and nutty risotto with roasted squash and wild mushroom. It complemented the salmon perfectly and I scraped the plate clean. (I don't typically order salmon at restaurants but decided to trust fellow reviewers and I'm so glad I did!) + CRAB PASTA ($32): The spaghetti alla chitarra had a nice texture. Light and zesty from the lemon breadcrumbs, this pasta balanced the richer salmon dish well. And we were happy with the amount of jumbo lump crab meat in the dish. Though objectively well cooked, we'll probably skip this one next time so we can try a different entree. - SPICED CARROT CAKE ($11): This was enjoyable but wouldn't reorder. Also my personal preference would've been more cream cheese frosting on it. Overall, a delicious new addition to our Hoboken dining rotation. Service was great and ambience was classy. read more

We ordered the meatballs, steak frites, rigatoni bolognese, and chopped salad. The meatballs and steak were tender and flavorful, the fries were also very good. The pasta and salad were great. I would not recommend ordering a hugo spritz as it was not good. I took away a star because the ambiance wasn't great (bright lighting, quiet music, tables very close together). And the service was not the best. read more

Great food. Terrible service. It was a slow Monday evening and we were rushed the entire time. We were barely seated before being asked for our food order. We literally had not even picked up our menus. We were not asked if we wanted a beverage or cocktail to start. Entrees arrived and were crammed onto the table while we were still trying to enjoy our appetizers. When we made the reservation we indicated it was a special occasion and that was never acknowledged. For a restaurant with $30 entrees, I think you need to do better than paper place mats and disposable napkins read more

Surprisingly, delightful! I throughly enjoyed our meal. Whatever you order, you must get a side of their fries -- worth every bite. The cauliflower appetizer was cooked to perfection and the chicken entree was very good. Would definitely return. The only downside was our waitress who was very against any restrictions or slight change or swap. read more

Everything here was good except the cheesesteak. Unfortunately, Kraft American Singles, or something similar, was glued to the cheesesteak and did not taste good at all. The experience would have been significantly better had they used real cheese. I was really satisfied with our apps and then was saddened when the "cheese" showed up to the table. I attempted to eat it but was unsuccessful. The mini steak/lobster rolls stole the show and I could have eaten 14 of them tbh. I dont recall the service, which just means it wasnt memorable, so neutral. Ambiance was fine and there were a few other people there. One of the first hot days of the season I would've thought more people would be inside, but I think this place might be new anyway. Would go back specifically for the mini rolls no doubt. read more

Great food and great service! Reservations on Resy. Our group of four split the Crispy Cauliflower Nuggets with spicy mayo to start - we devoured them before I was able to get a photo. The Roasted Salmon entree was delicious; cooked to perfection with artichokes, corn and green goddess dressing. The Chicken Sandwich also looked good. Perfect portion sizes. For dessert, we split the Chocolate Budino pudding with berries and mascarpone. Fun cocktail list too! Can't wait for Martha's to offer brunch!! read more

I went for a quick bite at the bar, was greeted warmly by the bartenders & it's a cute spot. Ordered a chicken garden salad, they forgot the chicken but it was quickly fixed. Salad was good, portion was enough and the dressing was delish! It was really quiet but a nice spot to just chill and hang. I checked out their happy hour and that looks like something I would return for but not sure. Overall, good experience. read more

Quiet place with a lovely, roomy interior and solid food. We got the calamari and kale Caesar salad to start. Calamari had more tentacles than rings, which both my friend and I didn't love. It was ok but did have a slightly fishy aroma. I would not order this again. The kale Caesar had a delicious dressing, parm crisps, and thin crisps of toasted bread. I liked the flavors and textures but had some issue with the cut on the kale and lettuce, which was ribbon-like. For an entree, I got the crab chitarra. The crab was cooked well and there was a generous amount of it. The flavor on the sauce was nice and the breadcrumb was a great addition. The noodles were a tad overcooked. I enjoyed the dish overall but it didn't blow my socks off. I did really love the offerings of a zero proof/non-alcoholic beer, wine, and mocktail. Service was lovely and pacing was good. I was not upset about anything, but I do expect a slight touch more at the price point. I'd go back if someone invited me. read more

Always enjoy the chicken sandwich and fries. Great service and quiet during the week and very busy on the weekends.

A wonderful find on 12th (off Hudson) has creative cocktail options and wonderful food to fit any taste. Server, Peter, was spot on with recommendations: crispy calamari, grilled octopus, crab pasta, and chopped salad, all plentiful enough to share. It's reasonably priced with a relaxed vibe. One block off the river, stroll along and enjoy the Manhattan skyline afterward. You won't be disappointed. read more

Was excited to try this new spot in Hoboken, but unfortunately was a bit let down. The ambiance and decor is great but as the night went on, the service started to decline. Our server was attentive at the beginning of the meal but after we got our food, we didn't really see him and was left without water refills or the chance to even order a second drink. In terms of food, the cauliflower and salmon tacos were very tasty. I really wanted to like this place a lot and would be open to giving it a second chance, but it wasn't a great first experience. read more

Martha's opened about a week ago, and it seemed that they might still be trying to get their footing. First, they did not yet work with an online reservation system, so we had to call to book something. When we arrived, there was no host to greet us or even a host stand to highlight the prospect of having one in the near future. So, we checked in with the bar staff and a server, who pointed to one of their high-top tables at the entrance to the dining room. Once we were seated, we found the service prompt and friendly, though our waitress seemed a little shy or unsure of herself. We started with cocktails, and I selected the Golden Hour, a blend of Ketel One vodka, elderflower, white peach puree, lemon juice, and yuzu bitters. I honestly only tasted a good dose of vodka and something that resembled grapefruit, which I guess was the yuzu bitters...? The drink had a slight pink tint to it, but I otherwise did not detect any white peach or other fruit puree. My boyfriend's Frozen Lime Margarita was better, but had an odd floral finish. Despite our underwhelming drinks, I found my meal to be fantastic! My Roasted Salmon had looked bland, but was actually very well-seasoned and perfectly cooked to my preference. It was served over a warm hash of sweet corn, fried artichokes, and sliced potatoes. There was also an earthy and herbaceous green goddess dressing on the plate that made for a heavenly dip for the other components of the dish. My boyfriend's Steak Frites included a long, charred hanger steak that was very flavorful, as well as an excellent house salad (lettuce, tomatoes, and shaved heirloom carrots) and some under-seasoned fries. Overall, I would definitely return to Martha's for the food, but I felt like the staff needed some time and practice to get to where they should be. read more

Highly recommend!!! My husband, best friend, and I stopped in for lunch. Restaurant is super cute and cozy. The staff were very nice and helpful. We started with drinks. I had the espresso martini (delicious) and my husband had the Spring Fever (he loved it). The menu is very diverse so it's easy to find something for everyone. Hubs and BF had the roasted salmon. Salmon was cooked perfectly but the highlight was the risotto!!! One of the best risottos we have ever had, and that includes Italy. I had the grilled chicken sandwich with the truffle fries. It's hard to make a chicken sandwich stand out but they did an excellent job. And the truffle fries, OMG! Best ever!!! We were too full for dessert but we saw others who were enjoying and they looked spectacular. read more

I have been disappointed every time I have gone there. They charge for bread and yes $1.50 for one slice of bread. Then they charged my mother 50 cents for cheese - I have never heard of a restaurant charging for cheese when you order a pasta dish. The food is okay and overpriced. Not recommended. read more

Horrible experience! Very rude, bartenders. I should have known when walking into Martha's and the bar is completely empty on a Wednesday night at 5:30pm during the supposed Happy Hour , which consist of 1 wine Pinot Grigio.. Then my friend and I decided we don't want Pinot Grigio.. So they offer 1/2 bottle wines on Wednesday. Only to find out that it has to be $120 or $100 bottles of wine. (The bartenders were not informed of this so they were confused) We politely decided to leave because we were uncomfortable with the rudeness of the bartenders. As we were leaving the bartender chanted and was very disrespectful to us! It is so disheartening to see this place take over for La 'Isla. I will never step foot in this place again! read more

All of the food was OUTSTANDING. The drinks were even better tho. I am not one to rave about a drink but they were so perfect - get the Southside, trust me. Also the cocktails are $10!!! The burger, pasta, and not pictured boa buns were all delicious. Staff was amazing as well. read more

Martha's is a new spot in the area so had to try. They say its modern american cuisine but it seems a little uninspired to me. The menu is all over the place. Bao buns to pasta to cheesesteak. The fried cauliflower were good. The mac and cheese was mehh and the meatballs were delicious. The cheesesteak was ok but nothing special. Not sure this place has a true identity but I wish them the best. I will say there was good service. Good luck! read more

My friend and I visited Martha's on Friday for the first time. We opted to sit at the bar since we just wanted to have a couple drinks and share an app. It doesn't seem like Martha's changed too much of the interior after taking over from La Isla. They have good amount of bar seating and we were able to secure 2 seats together. For our first round of cocktails, I tried their espresso martini and my friend tried the Golden Hour. We were both disappointed with our drinks since they incorporated bitters into the recipes. Totally unnecessary and killed the flavor of the cocktails. For our second drink, we each got the Hawaiian Sunset. The drink itself was so-so and the actual pour was weak/short. Based on a friend's review, when it came to ordering food, we knew to avoid the salmon tartare tacos given they are a skimpy portion. We opted to share the mac and cheese which was tasty and a good-sized portion. They don't have a huge menu and it's not very cohesive. It's also on the pricier side. I think they need to work through some kinks and then they can have potential to be a good addition to the neighborhood. It's a really nice space and so it would be a shame to have another restaurant turn over here. read more
