    I love this joint. The food was very tasty and the prices are affordable. Excellent bang for your buck! Menu is on the wall, so no paper wasted or germs shared ^^. Service was great as well. Friendly lady took our orders and was attentive throughout. I will be back for the other breakfast specials for sure!

    Great little mom and pop diner. The staff is so friendly ! It's my understanding these are new owners but they're caring and kind to every customer. The food quality is great and comes out hot and quick. Loved supporting this restaurant! I ordered two orders of pancakes, a western omelette, home fries, corned beef hash, orange juice, and a hot chocolate. Total was $30 and we brought our leftovers home. Great portions. There were tons of locals and long time customers in the restaurant.

    Nicks is a old school jersey city legendary diner. It's located on communipaw. It draws a local crowd every single day. I've been here many times. It's very affordable and get a good amount of food. Family owners, mom and pops diner. Nothing fancy just good food

    the inside of the restaurant

    Amazing restaurant/Diner in the heart of Jersey City. I've only eaten breakfast a few times and the pancakes are excellent. Small and cozy. Throw back restaurant. Owners (likely original) are there every day. Cash only. Limited (very limited) street parking. Love this place and stop in whenever I'm in the area.

    The food was delicious there was a wait because it was packed the waitress was nice and overall it was great food and service

    The food was delicious there was a wait because it was packed but the food got out to us quickly and the waitress was nice and overall it was great food and service. The prices are awesome! You get a lot of food. My plate was nicely but I Dug right in and move on my bacon to the side, it was a nice layout of food. On the table are pancakes French toast, eggs and Bacon the food is delicious.

    This is a great small little diner for anyone who wants to grab a quick breakfast that tastes great and for a great price. The owners here are a cute older couple who are very sweet and service is always fast and great with them. I always order my usual Bkfast sandwich: Egg whites with peppers, onions, turkey bacon and cheese on a roll with a side of French toast. Very simple but delicious. And good coffee (chock full o'nuts brand). They have all your basic breakfast foods (grits, bacon, turkey bacon, turkey sausage , and they do lunch). Check it out if your in the neighborhood.

    Is this place good? Worth the trip?

    It is lunch counter/diner food. The people there are very sweet, the food is decent and the prices are great. (Note, I have only had omlets, home fries and toast, I have not tried the other food). Is it worth the trip depends on where you are and… Read more

My entree was shrimp and grits which was also delicious, the shrimp was cooked perfectly and there was a poached egg on top which always makes everything better. I got to pick a type of bread to go along with the meal and was about to choose sourdough until the server mentioned the option of a fresh baked biscuit! Bonus - it was served with butter and house made jam. My husband got the mojo chicken which was also very good, especially the black bean puree. We also wanted to try the crispy bacon fried rice (which also came with an egg!) and it was something we'd definitely order again. Last but not least, the service was amazing! Can't wait to try their dinner menu.

Everyone was asked how the food was and service except for our table which consisted of two black women, this was the man in the instagram Videos he completely ignored us . Then we went to the wanderer next Door which we later found out that it's an extension of cafe Alyce and the same man showed up and still ignored us. I will never return here my money is best spent somewhere else.
