    Love the feel of the dining room. You feel like you're in a funky place in Hoboken or the Village rather than suburban Jersey. The menu & wine never disappoints.

    There's simply nothing that isn't done well here. Steak: check. Fish: check. Chicken: check. Cocktails: check. The staff are great.

    The place where everybody is a neighbor, the atmosphere is elevated, and the food is terrific.

    Love the featured cocktails. Seasonality is a terrific thing. Makes the evening an experience rather than just eating. A peanut-butter whiskey old fashioned? Why not?

    Always terrific experience, thanks to a staff that gets it right from back of the house to front of the house. The penne with blackened filet mignon is a go--to. All the seafood is terrific, from the halibut to the clams casino & steamed clams. Definitely recommend the house wines after a terrific cocktail.

    Del Monico never disappoints. It’s one of the most consistent dining experiences in the area. From the service to the food, they’re happy to have you join them and they want to make absolutely sure that you enjoy the food and the drinks. We go for special occasions or when we may just want a 100% positive experience after a hard week at work. The steaks are prepared at a level that would surprise you if you’ve ever eaten at one of the more touted steakhouses in the NYC tri-state area. They even take great care with the sides!! I could go on but now I’m starting to wish I had leftovers so I’ll stop here. Just go.

    Not your typical steakhouse as they offer some eclectic items but everything is done well. Staff is very nice and attentive. Took some time to get our entrees but the steaks were cooked perfectly. Pretty good wine list and interesting cocktails.
