Porta: Pizza, pasta, and please order their homemade ricotta. It’s our go to place to bring people to in Jersey City.
Departed Soles: Originally a Gluten-Free brewery, now also makes beers for the Gluten Tolerant.
Satis: Amazing European food for brunch or dinner.
The Hamilton Inn: Try their French Onion Soup Dumplings. It’s our go to brunch spot because it’s just a few blocks away from our apartment.
The Archer: Our favorite cocktail bar with really great food to boost.
Torico: Our favorite ice-cream and go to place for all our birthday cake needs.
Matthews: A delicious spin on seafood. Although if you want the eat with your hands kind of seafood, go to Just Be Claws a couple blocks away!
Hamilton Pork: All the BBQ meats. And some mac and cheese.
Razza: NYTimes named Razza the best pizza in NYC (yay Jersey City!). It’s doesn’t take reservations, so go early! But we personally love Porta better!
Liberty Science Center: Yes, it’s a children’s museum, but it’s also incredibly fun for adults.
Barcade: Arcade games and beers, can you really go wrong?
Liberty State Park
Jersey City Waterfront
Graffiti Tour: It would be a self guided tour, but you can go in search of all the beautiful art around the city.
