Have been to San Guiseppe's a few times and I have to say the food gets better with every visit! Rice balls are the best I've ever had and the pizza is great (and there's specials are amazing!!). The staff is very nice and the owners are super down-to-earth and all around wonderful. Its the perfect size and the music is just enough, really a great place overall! read more

The only reason I'm not giving them 1 star is because I used to like this place. However, the last time I ordered here it was so bad, it made me realize that they have no quality control at all. I ordered lasagna and what I got was some lasagna bits slopped into a container. It wasn't actually lasagna since it wasn't layered or anything like lasagna, and not only that, but it was about half the normal size. Since it was takeout, I didn't notice until I got home. It was so bad in every way that I can't trust this place anymore. A good restaurant simply wouldn't serve what they served me. read more

First off, there's a parking lot so that's already a big plus. We had a great time speaking to the owner, and the food was amazing. We had the Garlic Knot Meatball Sliders, which was probably one of my favorite dishes ever. Then, the Grandma's Pie and Chicken Burrata. I'd recommend all 3 dishes and excited to come back to try more. Bringing some wine to compliment the vibe next time! read more

San Giuseppe is a hidden gem in Hoboken. My family threw me a baby shower there last Saturday and it was a fun, delicious time for everyone! The space is beautiful (minimal additional decor needed) and a perfect layout to hold a private event. The staff was friendly and prompt. They served salads, a number of appetizers (Highly recommend the eggplant rollatini and fried meatballs) and some pizzas. It was a perfect variety and amount of food for a luncheon. They're BYOB so we were able to bring our own champagne and wine to celebrate. All of the guests appreciated the parking lot as well. If you want a beautiful venue to host a private event that serves delicious food AND a parking lot in town, contact San Giuseppe asap. We will be back to have dinner there soon!!! read more

Excellent excellent pizza and the most helpful staff in town. San Giuseppe gets often overlooked, but locals should take another turn - new ownership with incentive new idea. A+ read more

We came here for Mother's Day. The food was great and the customer service was excellent! We ordered the burrata pistachio appetizer which is a must! For entrees we had parpadelle with short rib, burata chicken, gnocchi chicken, rigatoni bolognese. All were very good! Desert we had the Nutella calzone and an afogatto (spelling). We will def be back! read more

San Giuseppe - Burata pistachio - Italian Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

All I can say is wow! This restaurant might be the best one in Hoboken. And the best part? BYOB with no corkage fee. Went here with fives friends and we split two appetizers, a pizza and everyone got an entree. Total came to $52 per person. We will definitely be back! Our waitress was also a total sweetheart. She told us her recommendations, showed us pictures of the items on the menu (which I love), and answered any questions we had. The vibe of the restaurant is also so cute! It's small, but comfortable. We were able to actually hear each other and not scream. Attached are the pictures of our amazing food! Get the chicken burrata (4/5 of us did!!!) read more

Got delivery on a L sauce and cheese pizza and expected to get an awesome pie but instead got a Burnt and not that great pizza. boo! The pizza was alright itself, but the fact that some of the crust was burnt turned us off. Of course like other pizza's in NJ, the dough here is good. Maybe we caught them on an off day? I know other's have really enjoyed their pie. read more

I really think this is one of the best margarita pizzas I've ever had. The pizzas here is seriously always on point. The sauce is so flavorful, I love it. The meatballs are also really good, better than a lot of others in Hoboken. The Tiramisu is to-die-for delicious! It's light and airy, not too sweet, perfection! This a great local spot that is BYOB (and wine), and you can usually grab a table for a small party of 4 or so. Everyone is super friendly and welcoming. Delivery is great also, I never have any issues. Fresh ingredients, nice people, BYOB, you can't go wrong! read more

Went here for a baptism party. First, on site free parking. That alone ranks four stars. The food was excellent, especially the burrata which I never heard of let alone eaten. Next time I gotta try the pizza, cooked in a custom made coal fired oven. Overall a nice experience read more

Just moved from NYC, and I've been searching for good Italian food outside of some places in Little Italy. Found it in San Giuseppe's. Eat-in dining is very comfortable and friendly and 'upscaled' by tablecloths and settings (for dinner). Tried takeout as well - and the Vegetarian Pizza is to die for!!! Generous portions - be prepared to take home a doggie bag! Highly recommend this for couples or families. (BYOB). read more

Had a great experience with them for catering. Very easy process and all worked out perfectly. Food is delicious.

Excellent !!! Food was amazing , the staff is the best. You certainly will not leave here hungry New favorite ! read more

The 40min drive from my house to Hoboken was well worth it! This place has great food & nice ambiance. Food was amazing. Pizza was delicious had that as a starter & chicken parm as an entrée. Highly recommend a bottle of the homemade olive oil to dip bread or as a dressing. I was too full for dessert but I did have the espresso & it was perfect. Great service, parkIng lot & all around a good time. I'll definitely be back here with friends. read more

Food was delicious, great service and Giuseppe was very accommodating. Restaurant is small but very pleasant and tables were set nicely with a fall theme. I was allowed me to bring all my own decorations for a baby shower and it looked beautiful! From start to finish Giuseppe made it very easy. It was a beautiful baby shower and all the guests and I loved everything. Would definitely return for a meal and another special occasion! They also had parking which was a huge plus! Thank you San Giuseppe! Fran S. read more

Always know what you're getting here = really good pizza and elevated flavors! I got the Calabresa pizza and added fresh ricotta because WHY not, was sooo good. Garlic knots are huge, fluffy and the marinara is on point. Haven't had a bad meal here. Pro tip - get their wings and let your life be changed. Not pictured here (will do a separate review for those bad boys), but trust they'll be in your top 5 after. Sautéed onions and tons of umami and the wings are fall apart tender. Get on over here already! read more

My family went there to take my dad out for a birthday lunch. I'd mainly chosen the place as it was fairly near me and had a parking lot and saw it was rated well on Yelp. It's not a terribly big space and we were a party of 7, but our reservation was for 2:30pm so we had the place to ourselves. We saw freshly baked garlic knots on the counter that smelled delicious so we got a couple orders of those--big, fresh & fluffy, we all enjoyed them. We also got the burrata (which came with prosciutto & peppers--yum) and the crostini as apps. We didn't realize this place doesn't serve alcohol (it's BYOB) so we made do with soda. I really enjoyed my chicken francese entree, and my family mostly liked their meals (a salsiccia dolce pizza, Vitello Marsala, filet of sole) except my dad was unfortunately not a fan of his saltimbocca alla romana (although he doesn't eat veal much, so maybe it just didn't suit his palate). We decided to share the chocolate cake (not good) and tartufo (just ok) for dessert, and several of us got cappuccinos (pretty good). I don't know if I'd dine-in again, but I think I would definitely order delivery/take out from here in the future. read more

Charming atmosphere & owners. Always make you feel like you are welcome. We are OBSESSED with the San Giuseppe pizza. It's SO deliciously balanced with the prosciutto, arugula & cheese & the crust is perfect! By far our fave in Hoboken, for years now. Cravings never stop. Really enjoy supporting this local family owned biz. They are heart warming. read more

I unfortunately did not have the chance to try the food here but I will definitely say that the service is not even worth giving the food a chance. I had made reservations for 8:15 to eat here with my family who drove from 45 minutes away to have dinner. My reservation very clearly noted that I had a 15 minute grace period - giving us till about 8:30. At 8:21 I received a call from the restaurant letting me know that the kitchen closes at 8:30. The gentleman very clearly told me that they would let my family and I come in and place an order. I walked in the door at 8:32 and was unfortunately told that they would not seat us or take our order. If your kitchen closes at 8:30. Don't take a reservation for 8:15 with a 15 minute grace period. The math doesn't math here. read more

There are a lot of things that I loved about my recent trip to San Giuseppe. I loved the fact that it is BYOB with no corkage fee. I loved that there was a parking lot with plenty of spots. I also loved the beautifully decorated dining room, and the fact that when I came in with a group of 8 on a Friday night that they were able to set up a table for us in the blink of an eye. So, why two stars? The food was just not good. Me and my boyfriend split chicken parm and the pappardelle bolognese and both were not enjoyable. The chicken was rubbery and didn't have nearly enough cheese, while the side of spaghetti was overcooked and drenched in what tasted like canned tomato sauce. And that was the star of the show... The pappardelle was terrible. It tasted like some kind of weird beef stew and wasn't reminiscent of any bolognese that I've ever tasted. The noodles were also soggy and overcooked. I'd come in again but for pizza and nothing more. This is definitely not a good pick if you are looking for a quality Italian entree. For $15-20 a dish you can eat more enjoyable Italian food at any local pizzeria or red sauce joint around town. read more

San Giuseppe, how I love thee. I"ve been teetering between 4 and 5 stars on this place and I've finally decided to give San G some five star love and here's why. Food = 4 stars. Value = 4 stars Parking = 5 stars BYO = 5 stars What brings this bad boy up to five from 4.5 is the chef/owner who comes out to to thank his guests for eating and truly cares about his customers, the food and the community. Lets chat about the pros: 1. Free parking in Hoboken. Yes, it's true. 2. BYOB 3. The food is fantastic. Very simple, light and amazing. I've sampled the pastas and the pizza. I find the pizza to be absolutely amazing. The eggplant puree and the prosciutto with figs have been my favorite but with this thin crust pizza, you can't go wrong. The gnocchi is amazing and the buena serra with chicken, sausage and a balsamic sauce rather than the tomato is out of this world. 4. Service is good. So friendly and amicable. The food does take a while to come out but, everything is served completely freshly made so, pizza takes awhile, I get it. 5. Ambiance is nice. Far from trendy but similar to the food, it's authentic. Cons: 1. I can say price/portion size may be a bit off. My one minor complaint was that the salad was pretty tiny for the price. It was filled with fresh parmagiana, olives and white beans but, not a lot of greens itself. I think that was my only disappointment with the meal. With both the pasta and pizza dishes, you can taste the quality ingredients. I also think I'm used to Jersey City prices which clearly, it's just cheaper. Overall, San Guiseppe's the perfect place for a carb loaded night out when you're looking for great eats, Go. read more

Hosted my bridal shower (35 people) at San Giuseppes this weekend and it was perfect! The event space is cute and intimate and the food was great!

Highly recommend having an event here. read more

Came here on a Saturday for lunch. We got a pizza and vegetables pasta. The pizza was decent. Ingredients were fresh, and the crust was good. It's not as good as places like Razza, but the restaurant feels homey. The best was the tiramisu. Overall, it's a comfortable place to grab a meal, with friendly staff and unpretentious crowd. read more

I had a great experience from the service to the food. If I could give more stars I would. We had the Baratta as an appetizer and their hot honey pizza was INSANELY delicious. Everything was super clean and the owners were very hospitable. I will 10000% go back again to try all of the other items in their menu. Highly recommended. read more

Dined inside at SG for the first time this weekend. They take reservations on resy.com but it seemed pretty slow there for a Saturday night. I'm not sure if this was related to the fact that they had an electrical issue the day before, but they weren't serving calzones or garlic knots on Saturday and they didn't give us much bread. That was a bummer since we wanted to try the garlic knot special I've seen on IG with sauce, cheese and pepperoni. To start, we got the mozz sticks and eggplant rollatini. The sauce on the eggplant was really good. The mozz sticks weren't hot so we had to send them back to be reheated. For mains, we each got the same special - the chicken cutlet with vodka sauce & burrata on top. Was very good and a big portion. Unfortunately, our waiter mixed up our leftovers when he boxed them up and gave us each other's meals. They should let people box their own food for this reason. Lastly for dessert, we shared a cannoli which was tasty - they put a candle in it since it was my friends birthday. Overall, it was a pleasant meal and the service was good despite the leftover mixup. read more

A little hidden gem where the portions are generous. My friends and I were able to get outdoor dining on a Wednesday night and were welcomed by incredibly friendly staff. For appetizers, we ordered the crostini and the burrata. The burrata was incredibly fluffy and so decadent, great with the free bread. The crostini was packed with so much flavor, between the balsamic dressing and prosciutto, and was a pleasant start to the meal. The calzone was huge. Incredibly huge. I ended up splitting it with a friend since there was no chance I could finish this larger-than-a-football-sized meal by myself. We got the funghi calzone, which came with a side of tomato sauce and was generously stuffed with mozzarella, ricotta, and mushrooms. Incredibly delicious and I would highly recommend to any mushroom lover. Lastly, the cannoli. It came with a drizzle of berry(?) sauce and did not skimp on the filling. It wasn't too sweet and surprisingly light. At this point, my stomach was so full from the calzone, but it made a very special spot for the cannoli. Overall, I'd highly recommend this place for anyone looking for some nice, cozy Italian cuisine. Guarantee you'll leave feeling full. read more

Light and flavorful pizza. Ingredients are fresh and premium. Off the path but what a find for those who do.. Their wings. *Chefs kiss* read more

We started with an order of meatballs as an app. They were excellent. Maybe some of the best I ever had. Moist and tasty. My wife had a fish special she said was fine. I had the chicken scarparellio which was very disappointing. It was bland with a lot of potato and a few little medallions of chicken and sausage diced very tiny. No bread was served to mop up the sauce. Not thrilled with the meal. read more

San Giuseppe's is a fabulous hidden gem in Hoboken, the food is exceptional along with the help. Giuseppe and his staff were wonderful, kind and caring during my aunt's repass lunch. This is a 5 star restaurant. Everything was perfect. Thank you! Geralyn read more

My review is for a delivery.. which as you know can be hit or miss... but San Giuseppe is super consistent. Their menu offers food that's safe for me to eat (I have celiac disease) and it's so super yummy. I highly recommend the vodka sauce pizza! If I could I would eat it every day! read more

Best ravioli in town! Food is always fresh and service is fast. You won't be disappointed.

Overall, this place is nothing more than average. To start, the ambiance here is just not it. Ugly yellowish colored walls with no decorations, tables way too close to each other, no candle or anything on the tables. No bread to start off the meal, as well. I enjoyed my rigatoni bolognese and the salad we ordered, but the burrata and prosciutto appetizer came with 3 little pieces of prosciutto and had way too much olive oil drenched on it. The vodka sauce pasta was soooo average, ive had better sauce from a Jar. With so much amazing competition in Hoboken, not sure how this place survives. read more

Hands down best pizza in Hoboken/Hudson county, and easily one of the best restaurants in the county period! By far the most underrated. I've been goin to these guys for years. They don't miss. My personal fave is the San Giuseppe Pizza.. Prosciutto di Parma, arugula, fresh mozz, and shaved Parmesan. Saporiteee!! Sometimes I'll even add fresh figs or dates to it when I get home to get that salty sweet savory combo. Im also obsessed with their wings (pollo al forno)- seasoning is perfect and they top the wings off with carmelized onions. Last week my girlfriend ordered the penne vodka pizza. Honestly didn't think I was gonna be a fan, but I shoulda known better. They don't miss. Oh, and if u want dessert, just ask Joe or Mario for one of their famous cannoli's, you'll thank me later (I dunno if the cannolis are actually famous, but they should be). Best cannoli I ever had. We ALL should be supporting our local businesses during these crazy covid-19 times. And if you are reading this review and live in Hoboken/JC/UC/WNY anywhere in Hudson county, go check this place out.. you'll be helping a local family-owned business, and maybe just as important, you will be helping YOURSELF out. Again, thank me later.. but you're welcome. read more

Excellent food and service. Definitely will go back again. The food is made fresh daily. Highly recommended!!!

I had a business dinner here the other night, and they serve excellent food. The location is off the beaten trail in Hoboken, so you won't see big crowds here. The food, however, is delicious, and there is plenty of parking in front. this is definitely going to be on my rotation going forward. read more

I love this spot! Such a great, hidden gem. I highly recommend it! Great food, consistently. Great service and friendlyyy owner. Wait staff is so pleasant. It's off the beaten path, under the hoboken (14th street bridge) but it's near Carpe Diem so not desolate. It is on such a quiet street that it gives you peace coming here. Parking lot available! If you don't like dining amongst the foot traffic of people on 14th or Washington Avenue, this place is it. read more
