Just wanted to let you all know that I was just in Bon Chon ordering wings and as I'm paying for my food I see into the kitchen and there is a big tray of cooked chicken just sitting there on the floor, with the cooks walking around it as if it wasn't there. I pointed it out to the manager and she said "Oh they are just transporting it" I said that maybe I would call the health department or post about it online and she said "You need to relax". Now this chicken may taste good, and they may have fancy branding but the bottom line is that this is just another dirty take out place...one that is overpriced. Before everyone keeps hyping this place up they should take a look at what is going on in the kitchen.

I ordered delivery from them for the first time tonight and I will do so again for sure. I had the eggplant rollatini and a salad. The eggplant was hot and and very tasty. The salad was crisp and fresh. The guy who delivered the food was the manager-nice guy. I told him that I appreciate the fact that their prices are very reasonable. This is the kind of place that JC should support. Go Parkside Bistro!

We gave the place a shot last week. It was very full on a weeknight, and we sat at the bar. I was glad that the televisions were small and high up so that one could enjoy the restaurant without being bombarded with televisions.

Brief review:
Interior is great
Staff good
Food mediocre
Prices high for a tavern, overpriced for food quality

The cocktail prices are on par with hip places in the city, not quite hotel Gansevoort prices but close at 13 or 14 dollar martinis. The question is-- why would they choose to set prices by those standards?

I think that they don't know what they want to be. If they want to be upscale then the menu and food must follow. Otherwise lower the prices, continue serving mediocre expected food and everyone wins. Someday someone will open a top notch restaurant in JC.


I've said it before and Bicicletta, I agree with you and will say it again...this could be a great place to hang out but they really do need to lower their prices.

This place has great potential-good service, warm atmosphere and quality food. The only problems are the small portion sizes and high prices. I went back for a second time and ordered the fish and chips. They were very tasty but they only served three smallish pieces of fish. They need to reconsider the portion sizes--it is more important to satisfy your customers than save negligible amounts of money with each non generous serving. If they are going to charge that much for dishes there should be no question about the quantity of food.

I have to agree with what others have said. Small portions and expensive prices. Hey owner-man, would it really kill your business to give a little extra and charge a little less? Seems like you are leaving your place wide open for easy criticism way too early in the game.

I must disagree with you Phook. Teens in JC are the ones who are committing many of the crimes, so why is enforcing the curfew not a pressing matter for the cops? Seems like it would make the streets a lot safer for everyone, including the teens who have to stay home.

Instead of just putting "This Thursday" when you post an upcoming movie, could you please post the date as well? It is a bit confusing.

Thanks!

The building is in a great location! Its a couple blocks from the Grove St Path and Newark Ave is becoming the new hot spot. That easy to determine since there are new buildings and reastaurants opening monthly as well as the new lighting and trees!

Crystal Point is way more expensive. One bedrooms starting where Saffron's two bedrooms start at! That post had to be from a C Point sales person.

I think this building is a home run! Especially for the one bedrooms starting under 300K.


Newark Ave is becoming the new hot spot?? I wouldn't go that far JCboyz. Hopefully it'll be a while before that really happens.

The person who does most of the baking for Stockinette is Chef Marco. He was pastry chef at Lighthorse Tavern for 5 years. He lives right around the corner from Stockinette so these are locally made treats. Everyone who goes there knows how good the food is.

Maybe you weren't paying attention to the other posts JCbiscuit, but this man is not intentionally "in his own angry little world." He is suffering from Schizophrenia. Sorry he spoiled your quality time in Basic but try to have some compassion for other human beings.

I heard that even if they do pick him up and take him in for evaluation they can't keep him very long. We are going to have to get used to this situation. On the bright side, he hasn't been too bad lately. Hopefully now that summer is over he will stay inside more with the cooler weather.

He needs to be relocated to a facility that can give him the care he requires. His family is not seeing to this, so as neighbors we are being put in the position to ensure that this happens. He has become a major disruption to the peace of the neighborhood. I called the police twice in the middle of the night when he was yelling. The first time they came and told him to go in the house, the second time they didn't show up. The next morning I called again and they said the next time it happens I should call back and they will send an ambulance, which will hopefully begin the process of getting him the care he needs, and bring quiet back to 3rd St.

He's a mentally ill old man whose family has abandoned him to live alone after his mother died earlier this year. It is a very sad story. He shouldn't be living there by himself-he needs to be taken care of and can't do so himself. However that does not mean that we as neighbors must endure his screaming and be kept awake at all hours of the night. I suggest to all people who live near him that they call the police when he is outside yelling in the middle of the night so that he can be taken in, evaluated and given the proper services.

Re: New Mexican Food Cart Downtown

The guys working this cart are great-I don't know if this "holla" incident is true or not and I won't make any excuses for them if it did. I do know that you get a real, authentic, Mexican street food experience and some of the best food to be had in Jersey City. I am not exaggerating. Alex and Aaron are family men, are totally real, cool individuals and eating here is 10 times better than any crappy fast food joint. Part of Latin culture, in my opinion, is to be laid back and casually joke around. I'm not going to condemn them for not acting like some chain restaurant automaton. If they did "holla" at someone as they were walking by and that person heard them and was offended I am sure they regret that. This cart is a real gem and it deserves our business. Otherwise, they might just pack up and leave for somewhere else, and that would be a shame. JC should embrace these guys.

This food is mouthwateringly good. Go hungry and be adventurous. JC needs more business owners like the young Mexican fella who operates this cart. He is nice, earnest and hardworking and is always looking for ways to expand his business. Be a sport and try one of his tortas. You won't regret it.

And the cool thing is that inside it feels like the place has been there for 40 years, even though its new. We have an old school, traditional diner that has soul and character, even though its still new on the scene (our scene)

Just wanted to give this place some love...I don't think I go here often enough. Went to Sava's tonight with a friend and we were both raving about how good it was. The flavors and tastes of this food are pure pleasure. Amazing. We are lucky to have a place like this in our hood. It's better than any Russian/Polish joint in the East Village, easily. Deeply satisfying, affordable meals served by a true character of a Polish Grandma in an unpretentious, genuine atmosphere. Without question one of the best eateries in Jersey City. This little resto is the real deal.
