Best Seasonal Restaurants in Bayonne

We always go for Thanksgiving dinner at Houlihan's. The Caesar Salad was exceptionally fresh and good, but the Thanksgiving entree was a bit smaller than usual and not quite as good quality as previous years. The mashed potatoes were a small ice cream serving and did not taste good. My brother said there was fat on his turkey. I didn't like the heavy seasoning on the string beans. Honestly, the best tasting item on the plate was the cornbread. It's only $24.99, but I would pay more for a better quality dinner, especially on a major holiday. We are considering other options for next year because although the server was great and attentive, the food was subpar.

From start to finish everything was delicious! My absolute favorite appetizer is the calamari, always have to order extra because everyone fights over it! The fried zucchini chips are perfectly crisp and we enjoyed the zucchini flower appetizer special which was equally delicious! The meatballs were spectacular as always. When it came to the dinner we all had a hard time choosing our entrees because the variety of options were better than the next so we decided on getting all different options to enjoy. The short ribs were tender and juicy a perfect treat on a cold evening accompanied by a wonderful Pinot noir. The branzino was cooked to perfection , light and fresh especially after all the amazing appetizers it was a perfect dinner option! We also thoroughly enjoyed the linguine vongole, a phenomenal classic chicken parmesan and squash ravioli. Although we were quite full, we couldn’t resist the desert menu particularly the churros and irresistible banana bread pudding! We can’t wait to return to this family favorite restaurant! Well worth the trek from Westchester New York !

Their tapas are big enough for a meal! Each one was delicious. Worth a trip to Staten Island to go to this restaurant with great food and very good value. Service is also friendly and professional.

Went to celebrate a birthday. I love the whole vibe of the restaurant. All our cocktails were delicious. We ordered a few appetizers, including the flatbread, which were amazing. All our entrées were delicious. The service was terrific. Our server was extremely friendly and helpful and never did we feel rushed? I would highly recommend, this restaurant to anyone

Tasty calamari. Especially nice cocktail, a tamarind margarita. Loved the pizza. Great atmosphere. Neighborhood joint, full up on a Sunday night. Will be back.
