    Grilled Beno and lobster with and pasta
    Aimee O.

    The waterfront views are fantastic, but unfortunately the food didn't meet my expectations both times I visited. I'd come back for the scenery before I'd come back for dinner.

    Food was Amazing in every bite. Beautiful view even though it was an ugly weather can't wait to go back outdoors. But everything else great. Service outstanding and quick. Definitely a comeback soon

    Lobster Fettucine
    J C.

    The food was delish! Especially the octopus app and the lobster fettuccine! Drinks were good too but the draft beer was warm and was served to us that way by the bartender and server. Not sure why they both didn't realize they were not cold at all. Service was a little slow but not terrible. The views were great! We would go back!

    Had a lovely time. We only came for apps and some drinks. We had the ice Tower. I wasn't a fan of the crab or muscles. But the oysters shrimp and lobster were great. The staff is very nice. The ambiance is great and well kept.

    Great views abs ambiance. Service is hit or miss. Some of the staff is great and some tend to disappear mid service, leaving you trying to flag down other wait staff or bussers to get something or even just the check. Sunset into dusk/night is best time. You get the full effect of the views. In terms of food. It wasn't bad at all, just nothing that was punch in the face kind of wow. The seafood seems fairly fresh and they make dishes to showcase the seafood. They have a few non-seafood items as well. Drinks look great. I wish the wine list by the glass was more extensive. Had enough options to pair well with food but more on the basic side. Likely would be back for other food items but may just enjoy food and drinks at the bar.

    We have not been to Molo's in five years and wanted to sit by the water today. To start entering the restaurant the smell of bad fish in garbage was so strong. We should have left but there were many people on the deck we decided to stay. The service was very nice but the fish was not fresh. I had filet mignon which was good but we were very disappointed. Unfortunately we won't go back. Plus the drinks were hot and small. View is beautiful it's a shame.

    Fried Feta

    Our group of 4 enjoyed a Friday night at Molo's. Ample parking can be found across the street in a lot at no charge. We were about 15 minutes early for our reservation, but they immediately welcomed us without hesitation and escorted us to our table with a stunning view of the Manhattan skyline. (TIP: Request a seat at the windows) The 2nd floor was closed, however my wife said the view was better upstairs. AMBIENCE: You can't go wrong with floor-to-ceiling windows and the NYC skyline as your backdrop. Tables were spaced well and even with a full dining room, we had great conversation without having to "Scream" at each other. Lighting was perfect as it wasn't too bright or too dim. SERVICE: Very fast, efficient and pleasant. Water glass was never empty. We sat for about 3 hours and never felt rushed or like they wanted us out. FOOD: Authentic Mediterranean experience. The Fried Feta (Photo) tasted like it was straight from Santorini. The Lobster Fettuccine (Photo) was very filling with huge pieces of lobster including both claws. Crabcake was very fresh. VALUE: Some other reviews say that it was overpriced and I can understand the feeling. However for fine dining on a waterfront, the pricing was as expected. Especially for seafood. We would absolutely return to Molo's!

    I had a fantastic dinner at Molos last night! Definitely sit outside when dining because the patio and view of the NYC skyline is spectacular. There's lots of lights to make the views even more special. The inside is just as beautiful. However, the patio is perfect! I would recommend booking an earlier dinner if you want to eat outside because it does become quite busy. There are so many great appetizer options on the menu. My friend and I tried the fried feta topped with pistachio and drizzled with honey. We also shared pita with eggplant dip. Both options were a big hit. You can't go wrong with fried feta! For dinner, we shared the Dover sole and Spanokorisotto. The Dover sole was marinated in lemon and butter. The potion sizes were decent, so you get your money's worth. The Spanokorisotto was a nice play on Spanokopita and risotto combined. We loved that! We finished our meal with dessert and really enjoyed the Galacktoboureko, which is a vanilla custard pie. The espresso martinis were delightful. If you're in the mood for Greek, check Molos out!

    I love this place it's amazing food and service I recommend the view of the river looks amazing

    I've been to Molo's a few times over the years. The food is pretty good (although a little overpriced) and you can't beat the beautiful NYC views. They have a great outdoor patio with plenty of seating and a large indoor dining room. My husband and I dined here for dinner a few weeks ago and the service was insanely slow (which was odd because the dinner rush had mostly cleared out). The tuna tartare appetizer and oysters were delicious, and our entrees were fine (I got the Dover sole and he ordered the lamb chops, nothing too memorable). It's a good spot for outdoor dining but not top of our list to return to anytime soon.

    Lobster pasta
    Thomas U.

    for the View, 1/2 for the Food -- but Who's Counting When Manhattan is Glowing in Front of You? If you want dinner *with* Manhattan instead of *in* Manhattan, Molos is your spot. It's basically a giant glass box perched right on the Hudson, staring straight at the skyline like it's trying to flirt with it. I swear Icould practically see Times Square blinking back at me. We got there at 6 PM -- perfect timing to watch the sun set behind the city and make you briefly forget about New Jersey traffic and your $10 valet fee (because, of course, there's no parking -- beauty has its price).This was a special "welcome home" dinner for my son, back to Jersey after college and a few years of wandering the states. The mood? Proud dad. The view? Movie set. The crowd? Birthdays, anniversaries, date nights, and at least one guy nervously clutching a ring box (good luck, buddy). Now, the food. Let's just say it's like the skyline: looks great from afar, fine up close, but you're mostly here for the view. The menu calls itself Greek seafood, and sure, there's octopus, branzino, and calamari doing their best impression of Santorini. It's... fine. Not bad, not life-changing -- just "average in a nice way." Cocktails were good -- strong enough to make me forgive a few culinary sins and toast to the incredible setting. Service was polite, professional, and didn't rush us, which I appreciated. Would I go back? Absolutely. Not for the food, but to feel like I own a multimillion-dollar penthouse for the price of dinner and valet. Pro tip: go before sunset, order a drink, and pretend you're in a lifestyle commercial.

    Molos Chips
    Aram L.

    Came by on a weekday for dinner without a reservation and was seated right away outside. Waiter was nice though the food and drinks both took quite the minute to come out. Food was good though I will say it's a bit on the pricey side. The lobster pasta was good though did hope for more than four pieces for the price. I will say those molos chips were great. Sea bass was good though there are bones so make sure to chew slow (rookie mistake on my end). The ambiance is the highlight with great views of the city. The outdoor area can be pretty windy though so something to keep in mind.

    We have a reservation for NYE 2023 @ 8:15PM, are children allowed? We are planning on just having a nice dinner and are not planning on staying for a celebration or anything like that.

    Is the tzatziki portion that comes with veggie chips reasonable?

    Yes enough for two to three people

    When is the best time to call? It seems every time I call to modify a reservation no one is picking up, and a late cancel/no show fee will be charged $25/person. Seems oblivious when I can't cancel since no one is picking up and I can't do it online

    Hello, Molos Restaurant gets busier in the evening time. Definitely someone will get back to you but the wait times get longer after 6-7 pm. My recommendation for you to get the fastest phone answer is the morning time when the restaurant opens,… 

    Hi! Is this restaurant kid-friendly? We have a 2yo son and would like to go there for celebrating the anniversary.

    Yes Molos is a restaurant that is kids friendly. We love kids and we always welcome them… 

    I tried make a reservation for me and my husband a week ahead for window seat but unfortunately the answer was no. I could wait two weeks or a month but the receptionist said no. Then who will reserve the seats for the customers by what? Just random?

    Molos is a restaurant with great water views from all tables. Window tables are not reserved on line or over the phone, but are giving when quests come in. We will always try our best to accommodate our quests.… 

    What's the dress code?

    Sunday brunch is more casual. But I would dress up for a date. Nice jeans or slacks.

    Are there many vegetarian/vegan options available? I see 1 or 2 salads possibly. Not sure if anyone has experience with this at Molos.

    Molos restaurant menu is largely based, on seafood but it does offer a couple of vegetarian options.

    I have to come right out and say it-- I've never been so enthusiastic about a "take-out" place…read moreafter just 1 meal. Ever. At work, the Godfather wanted to order (unusual for him to suggest it; usually I'm the 1 pushing for us to order out, and he's invariably resistant, although ultimately, he's acquiescent, although just as invariably he blames me for "pushing him into it" as he gobbles down whatever food it was we've ordered). I was willing but wanted to try something different than our usual fare (burgers, Chinese, Japanese, sandwiches). Someone else mentioned Exotic Eats, as a younger co-worker had ordered from there recently and seemed to enjoy what he had eaten. I asked, "Does this younger co-worker have a discriminating palate?" (Not actually being quite the jerk I oftentimes seem to be, I did of course use less pretentious, overblown verbiage in asking my question.) The reply was, "He's young; he'll order almost anything and like it." So...it might be great; it might be horrible. So we took a chance. They deliver, and I was intrigued by their on-line menu. I can't remember what the Godfather ordered, or another co-worker who wanted us to include him in what had once been known as the Lunchbox Mafia, but I ordered "the Island Bowl." Sliced jerk chicken breast on a bed of Mac & Cheese with jerk BBQ sauce. Being hungry, I ordered a side of blueberry cornbread, and the dessert of banana pudding cheesecake. All of it washed down with my ever-present bottle of Poland Spring water. We didn't have to wait long for it to be delivered. As I mentioned in my introductory remarks, I found the food fabulous. The jerk chicken in its BBQ sauce had a tangy sting, but it wasn't unpleasant or pain-producing. And I have to say-- the Mac & Cheese was the best I've had since my late mother used to make it for me in childhood. It's a baked "dry" Mac & Cheese as opposed to the overly sauced (and bland) version you get in most restaurants these days (all it was missing was the crumbled crackers that my mother used to put on top of it). Pure deliciousness, as they say. The blueberry cornbread was the perfect accompaniment, and the banana pudding cheesecake was wonderfully smooth, creamy, and decadent. I wasn't feeling bloated to the point of discomfort once I had finished it all, but I definitely felt "well fed." My fellow partakers were equally as enthused. Prices were fair, portions were immeasurably more than adequate, and the meal was luxuriously satisfying on every single level. As mentioned, delivery didn't take long at all, and it arrived hot. I'm not entirely sure how to classify the cuisine. The website described it as "Soul Food" with a "Caribbean Spirit." A long-time friend of mine is Jamaican, and she used to throw a big feast for friends and family every summer (I was usually the only white person invited, which was never any sort of a problem, although once a little kid of 4 or 5 looked at me with hostility and said, "What are YOU doing here?"), before health issues sidelined that annual event. She was a great cook, and everything was fresh-- jerk chicken, fish, ackee that always reminded me of scrambled eggs, breadfruit, sorrel liquor, etc. Despite the quality of the food served, I never really acquired a taste for Jamaican cuisine (I ventured out once to a Jamaican restaurant in Perth Amboy with friends; they were enthusiastic about it but it wasn't of the same quality as my friend served, and obviously didn't transform me into a "fan"), but I don't know that Exotic Eats is Jamaican per se. But I know that what I had was delicious and filling, and I can't wait to order from Exotic Eats again. Obviously, very highly recommended.

    Execution: The mac & cheese showed strong flavor, thickness…read moreand proper texture. The collard greens were well-seasoned. The chicken was crispy and packaged in aluminum foil to keep it from turning cold. Flow: Ticket pacing was efficient, with food arriving in approximately 8-10 minutes without sacrificing quality. Hospitality: Service was attentive and composed throughout the visit. FOH member showed confidence in the menu and maintained strong awareness of the room. Guest interaction felt genuine and well-trained. Structure: The menu offers variety without unnecessary additions. Final Standard: A soul food operation where flavor, timing, and hospitality was well executed.

The guac was good but could use a bit more salt, i wish they had chiccarons as chips instead of tortillas but the chips were great so wasn't a big issue. overall though expensive for some pretty average guac in my opinion. the seabass crudo was great, i loved the sauce and the mango went great with it. Super fresh, super tasty. Unfortunately the tacos were a mess, when it arrived the tortillas were so soggy that they were just coming apart, the meat was also falling off and overall the presentation was horrendous. the tacos weren't balanced as well, there were some with too much meat and then some with basically only cheese. overall flavor was not birria im typically use to but it was solid. honestly these tacos are probably the worst tacos i've ever had, for $20 it's a travesty. overall for a place nearby i'd come to get some drinks and the crudo and esquite because those were fantastic. but i'll pass on their tacos hard.

Now I have a thing when people say "it's just next door" or "it's right down the street." What did George Dubya say? Fool me once and it's shame on you, fool me twice and the shame is mine for getting us into a war based on lies and greed?" Yeah something like that. Anyways, I typically don't believe when people say something is close so whenever I visit her we just order in delivery rather than motivate (ie put on a bra) and go out. But dang it this is literally. Right. Next. Door. As in I can sit on the deck outside of the restaurant and look in her living room. Smh. I say all that to say IVE BEEN MISSING OUT!! Her bday was this weekend so she booked a large table for family and friends. I was relieved to see they had valet. Parking is atrocious in this development so to only pay $10 to be 10 feet from the door was awesome. The restaurant itself is beautiful and the staff know her well and treated her as a valued guest. Here's the rundown: We went for BRUNCH. They have a prix fixe for $41 of most of the brunch items and it includes 2 Bellini, 2 mimosas, or 2 Bloody Marys. Good right? Welp what you don't know is that their cocktail menu is incredible so to heck with the prix fixe. We got mimosas at home!! Between the 10 of us we got cocktails, appetizers, entrees, desserts, coffee. Highlights: -Service was spectacular. Wesley was On It! By the time we finished eating there was another party of 10+ seated right behind us that he was servicing. I hope he enjoys the reward$ of his hard work! Make it rain on em Wesley! -Fat friendly seating. No arms, solid chairs, comfortable cushions. We were there for 4 hours and my booty was never sore. -Food. We tore it up and it was all delicious. My half of the table had the farm house breakfast sando, the fried chicken sando, French omelette, huevo rancheros. We shared the crab hush puppies, wings, calamari, goat cheese salad, and blueberry pancakes. I was nosey and saw that some of my other table mates ordered the skirt steak and eggs and the short rib. -Drinks. I know my husband loves mango so I suggested he get the smoked mango drink. I didn't know it came with theatrics. Dinner and a show?! Btw by the time our table was done almost everyone had ordered one. Lychee martini, Paloma, old fashioned, midnight espresso. Also all very good! -The View. Our party was too large to sit outside but we did sit right at the floor to ceiling windows. In between birthday wishes and food comas we watched the boats, jet skis, and undulating waves of the Hudson. Previous posters are correct - the place is pricey. But high key the people who live in that area are already paying a premium for everything else sooooo. Now, I DONT live in that area lmao so this will be a rarer treat for me. But I was happy to celebrate my cousin's birthday in a place that she loves. Awesome experience - I look forward to returning! 10/10 would put on a bra for this and walk downstairs lol

At the best part, selection and offerings do not disappoint. A bright and welcoming space, the store is stocked with various prepackaged goods, including unique items, such as black cuttlefish gnocchi.

Stocked with multiple types of salmon, more obscure fish, such as whole snapper, and tons of different types of shellfish. prices are reasonable and in line with what is to be expected.

I've had the Dorado, Branzino, Faroe Island Salmon, the cod, and the monkfish. They have even had sardines which are my favorite. Fresh whole sardines are hard to come by. All of the fish that I had tasted good and was very fresh. The staff members are very friendly and are eager to help. They clean your fish and cut it however you like. Definitely a great experience if you're a fish lover like myself. I plan on going back to try their scallops and clams.
