Fried Chicken & Waffle - this was kind of dry and bland
Li W.

Came here for Sunday brunch with a few friends when they opened at 10am. Plenty of seats available during this time. I got a Fried Chicken & Waffle, which comes with spicy syrup, but the whole thing was pretty dry and bland. My husband had the BEC burger (cooked medium), which he said was also dry. Otherwise, service was quick and friendly.

A nice touch of Hoboken in New Jersey!!! Zack's has great options in the appetizers, main and desserts. Their food is aesthetically pleasing to the eye but has great proprietary flavors with spices and sauces. Jerry was our guy that made great effort to satisfy our west coast palate. Food comes out the side door of the kitchen with nice temperature and detail.

(Dined 06/16/2024 SU @ 1:00pm): Gather your friends and head over to Zack's for brunch or simply hit the bar! My friend's colleague/friend recommended Zack's Oak Bar And Restaurant for brunch https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=AyIYNrArABEuTeuU486vgg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw after I arrived in town as a place we all wanted to try. While I continued to visit a dear friend of mine and found work in the surrounding areas, I wanted to explore the cuisine scene and leave my footprint for others to hopefully enjoy. I loved brunching as much as the next person, and this place came highly recommended, so why not give them a try. Would Zack impress us with his bar and restaurant!? PURCHASE Hudson Spritz ($15.00): A proper way to begin brunch... an effervescent easy breezy sweet sparkling cocktail - cheers! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=gzFK2WmzFl5P95pUE5qxCQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Fiddlehead Brewing Co. Fiddlehead IPA Beer 16floz Draft ($11.00): Hazy rich amber color, citrusy dank hoppy aroma, low body, citrusy hoppy flavor, clean dry finish, and smooth citrusy hoppy aftertaste. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=QAL2FbBvia1Equi1mZ575Q&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Short Ribs Spring Rolls w/Five Spice Sauce 4pc ($15.00): Stuffed with shredded meat and rolled in a light crispy crunchy wrapping, these were tasty and wonderful. Sadly, the dipping sauce wasn't fully utilized but necessary either. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Aioaxg-9vlHFZqp8jeF3jg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Mac & Cheese ($16.00): A ton of small pasta shells bathed in a creamy cheese sauce mixed with finely-chopped shallots, this dish came in fast, hot, and I couldn't have enough of it. Now... if it only had some bacon pieces! https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=OXyV8KFIV4BPE8EzHruwNw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Brisket Blend Burger ($22.00): Made with strips of bacon, roasted tomato, the succulent thick patty wrapped in cheddar and provolone, pickled red onion, cornichon aioli, presented open-faced on a toasted bun, and served with a pickle spear and herb seasoned thin fries, this impressive two-hander had juices run down onto my chin after each bite. The fries were good and plentiful but nothing special. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=BggyODwIbdZ4lSQsbjmfpQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw Credit Card Fee 3.00% Total Bill ($6.00): I understand why more businesses are adding this as a matter of standard operating procedure; I just wished they made it more explicitly known prior to ordering. SERVICE We made reservations, so we easily got seated next to the bar with sidewalk people-watching views. We had glasses of water delivered as we perused the menu. We placed our drink which arrived quickly, and once we placed our good order, it all came out less than ten minutes later. More drinks were ordered, the staff checked on us and cleared away dishes, and when it was time to settle the bill, that was quick and painless. Everything went smoothly - thank you! PARKING (Varied; N/A this instance) My friend and I walked a few minutes from the nearby Trader Joe's. We initially hopped on the 2nd St. Light Rail Station, got off the next stop at 9th St./Congress St. Station. I couldn't recall any private or public lots; however, there seemed to be decent street parking along the main drag of Willow Ave. and surrounding roads. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A surprisingly spacious interior layout with high tables in the bar area https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=q_y3px7aQNKGizzGPFDr1w&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw while leather barstools lined the bar, many tables in a separate back section, and several tables with umbrellas outside along the sidewalk. The decor had a very old period feel. Plenty of natural lighting came through the large front windows and doors while bright electric ceiling lights filled in the rest. There were a couple TVs at the bar while no music played in the background. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=qP5UWu3518OpvHpVraNgtQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Zack's Oak Bar And Restaurant was a wonderful first meal on this latest trip and would definitely return. Sure, I felt things were a bit pricey; however, everything I drank, ate, and tasted was blissfully wonderful with very good portion sizes. And, the service was perfectly fine. I found total value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience FOR MY PORTION was around $84.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit cards of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS

Everything about this restaurant was great except the hostess. I have lived in Hoboken for 4 years and this was my first time at the Zack's. I want to come back, but given the experience I don't know if I would. Our reservation was for 6pm and we were running about 5 min late at 6:02 we get a call from the hostess asking if we were coming (after I already confirmed over text) and I said we would be there at 6:05. She then told us we have until 7:30 as they have another reservation coming up. We get to the restaurant at 6:05 and she seats us and re-iterates we only have until 7:30pm. I have been to plenty of restaurants in the city and have never been treated like this before. As we sit we notice she's going around to many other tables either reminding them they have an hour and a half or letting them know their time is almost up and they have to leave. We even overheard other tables talking about how rude it was and how rushed they felt. They may as well give you a timer and put it on the table as soon as you sit down. They missed out on sales because of this. We were scared to order another drink or even dessert. The waiter however was amazing and super attentive. I was just shocked at the behavior of the hostess and how she made everyone in that dining room feel rushed. I have been to many restaurants with a time constraint but never experienced it like that to the point where every single table around us is also complaining about it. Other than that I would've given 5 stars. The food and the service from the waiter were incredible.

Fish tacos
Jenny R.

Bourbon on the Hudson - ehhh wouldn't order again Crab crack -just 1 med one but very tasty !! Ceasar salad- no croutons but I loved that breaded sprinkle?! Was great (could have used a bit more dreasing) Salmon - crispy but not dry- potatoes seasoned good Fish tacos - fish seasoned and crispy - would recommend They put salad on everything - no need to order it for an appetizer As a service standard: They didn't pour our water- or refill it the whole service (they left one bottle on the table the whole time even while it was empty) and didn't check back enough to question how the food was or if we needed more water. Our table had a clear view into the kitchen which wasn't my favorite as they left the curtain that was supposed to block my view open the entire time. The tables were way too cramped together felt like I was dining with the people next to me which is probably why the server couldn't/didnt check back on us to see what we needed

Hulgrid G.

Zack's has a nice atmosphere; brunch is quiet enough to catch up with friends and during the day the entire bar looks beautiful. The food was simple and to the point. The steak was a little overdone. I particularly loved the lemon ricotta pancakes. I just wish they had a mimosas offering (bottomless maybe?)

Lamb Bolognese Penne with Basil Ricotta & Spinach
Destiny C.

I went with my partner to Zach's for dinner on a Friday evening for our anniversary & we had a blast. It's been some weeks now so I don't remember our server's name but she was very friendly, polite and knowledgeable about the menu. The music selection was great but not too loud. Seemed to be of a younger crowd (20s-30s) but that isn't a bad thing for me. Our drinks were made very well & came out in a timely fashion. Appetizer was delicious and the big portions made it fantastic to share. The dinner?! SUPERB. I'm someone who typically gets bloated after a heavy meal of pasta & seafood but my linguine was truly refreshing. I had a glass of white wine after my mule and I didn't feel sluggish at all! My boyfriend couldn't stop raving about his lamb bolognese (I didn't try it b/c I only eat seafood/pescatarian) I think for date night, small birthday dinner, or just a night out, Zach's is a great choice. Arrive earlier than planned because you'll have to look for street parking. There was absolutely nothing about this night that the staff could improve on. Everything was amazing!

Short Rib Sandwich
Danielle S.

Zacks is always a go-to for me! Can't go wrong with the burger and fries. My friend tried the Short Rib sandwich and loved it.

Barbara C.

Food, service, and ambiance were all solid. We came without a reservation and greatly appreciated the restaurants ability to seat us quickly. We were seated outside. The outdoor seating is a bit tight, so if you'd prefer more room, reserve for indoors! The service was quick, with our food and drinks coming out shortly after ordering them. The Pulled Pork Sandwich and the Hoboken sandwich were both decent - It is exactly what you order. Neither of us were floored by the food, but it was solid. The speedy service was appreciated, but it also seemed that the hope was for us to eat and leave quickly. The drink presentation was great and the drinks were strong, definitely recommend these well-crafted cocktails. Definitely wished we could have stayed and enjoyed some more drinks, but we didn't want to hold the table, which was the vibe we were getting from some wait staff. Would give this place another try with a reservation!

Met some friends here for lunch the other day. Definitely did not need a reservation for lunch during the week The bartender / server was amazing during our time there. Loved that we could choose from a variety of different dips for our fries. My open faced egg sandwich with bacon and avocado was super yummy. I was a little disappointed I couldn't get a Bloody Mary (apparently they only serve them during brunch), but loved the Sweater Weather cocktail. They still had some fun holiday decor up, which made it super cozy and pretty. This would be an excellent date spot!

IPA at the bar!

Since my last visit, I had only ventured there once for a drink, but it had been far from a first choice. I loved that they had live music and a casual vibe, but my past culinary experience had been a letdown. However, I was very pleasantly surprised on my recent excursion. We grabbed seats at the rustic bar and enjoyed friendly service and pints of Kane Head High, my favorite beer. The crisp, refreshing brew went well with my cup of Chicken Noodle Soup. While that might sound like an odd "snack", I selected it because it was one of the few appetizers on the menu that was not fried. The broth seemed to interestingly be made of tomatoes and potentially other vegetables. It was packed with large, spiral noodles, shredded chicken, and fresh spinach. It was an interesting rendition for sure, but it was also very tasty, despite the fact that it was rather greasy. I was also bummed that it did not have more chicken and that it had not been served with any crackers. Oh well! Overall, it at least had left me with a much better impression than my last trip had.

My review is for Flour, the full-service restaurant attached to The Pizza Shop, a takeout spot. I…read morehad been eager to try their pies, as well as their full meals, but only just made it to their dimly lit, hip and happening main dining room. The space was not large, but they really made the most of it, offering a decent number of tables with reasonable space between them. My friend and I were quickly seated and immediately greeted by a charming server that opened our bottle of wine (it's BYO) and offered us still or sparkling water. I had read in other reviews that you had to pay for water, so I was not surprised by the $6 bottle of Saratoga that wound up on our bill. In addition to our engaging server and the happening atmosphere, the food was similarly incredible. We decided to order a load of things to share, so that we could try a greater variety. We started with two appetizers that were seasonal Spring additions to the menu. The Hamachi Crudo included five thickly-sliced, tender pieces of Japanese yellowtail sitting in a broth of rhubarb aguachile and topped with white strawberries and basil seeds. It was an unique blend that we would not have expected to work, but boy was it delicious! The sweet toppings infused a load of flavor into an otherwise mild fish. We also enjoyed the Fava-mole, a creamy puree of fava beans studded with balls of hand-pulled mozzarella and pea tendrils, all drizzled with zesty ramp oil. I had not been sure what to expect from the dish, but it offered fresh, bright garden flavors. We also decided to share a pasta course and an entree. The Fettuccini was tossed with spring truffles and maitakes in a light, yet heavily aromatic, wild mushroom cream sauce. It was one of the best dishes I had had in quite some time. Then, as we were waiting on our seafood entree, we received a second pasta, courtesy of the Chef. I had mentioned that I had heard rave reviews about Flour from a server at Heirloom Kitchen, a top NJ restaurant. Apparently, our waiter had let the Chef know about that glowing praise, and the kitchen further verified that positivity with the generous gesture. In fact, they wound up sending out the Linguine with white clam sauce, razor clams, and wild ramps, the other dish about which I had been most curious anyway. Well, it was another winner! It was garlicky, herbaceous, and rich with flavors of the sea. Speaking of seafood, we next received the Branzino 'Bahn mi', a perfectly cooked piece of Mediterranean sea bass with Vietnamese sausage and pickled vegetables. The branzino's crispy skin and flaky, moist interior were excellent, and we loved all of the other smoky and briny flavors on the plate. After all of that excellent food, we would have loved to try one of their appealing desserts, but we were just too full. Between the ambiance, welcoming vibe, and delicious cuisine, our Flour experience was simply divine! It has now became one of my favorite restaurants in the area, and I cannot wait to try their pizza at some point as well.

I came with a small group on a Tuesday night. We started off by sharing the whipped ricotta and the…read moreHamachi crudo. I was a big fan of both, especially the ricotta, which was so incredibly creamy. For the mains, everyone's fresh-made pasta was excellent. I ordered the Mexican street corn, which was unique, flavorful, and delicious. I also tried some of the spicy rigatoni and loved it. We ended the night with the s'mores dessert, which was rich and chocolatey. Also, the fact that the restaurant is BYOB is a huge plus! The only downside was that I lost an item during our visit. I had a really hard time finding their contact information online, so I had to go back in person to ask about it, which was a bit annoying. Ultimately, they weren't able to recover it, but the food itself was still outstanding.

The egg was perfectly runny, the hollandaise sauce flavorful and just right. I was very satisfied by the presentation and food quality. They had a special St.Patrick's Day menu for that weekend but I didn't try that. The dinner menu looks good so I would go back to try that.

The menu we had was specific to the tasting even but all made by the same everyday chef. The first course was white asparagus with a hollandaise sauce and that was so tender and delicious but light enough that I wasn't full at all. The second course was halibut with risotto and crab and there was so much meatiness. It was my favorite place and the flavors went so well together.

The mashed potatoes and carrots were the backbone to this plate (Ironically, there wasn't a bone with this entree.) Lava Cake: Although it is in the shape of a muffin, it still has the taste of a warm chocolate cake. It blends well with vanilla ice cream. This dessert would have been better if the ice cream was firmer instead of melty. Although the blueberries were a nice decorative touch, this type of fruit did not go well with the dessert. Overall, the meal was pretty good and when the weather gets warmer I am really looking forward to dining on the upper level to get breathtaking views of the city while sipping cocktails. #metropolis #metropolishoboken #hobokennj #rooftopbar #lavacake #braisedshortribs #downtownhoboken
