Def the curry goat at Nicole's. So good. I can see it as one of those places that newbies are afraid to walk into, let alone try.

Nicole's on CC and Jersey Ave - delicious curry goat and curry fish takeout will transport you to the Caribbean in no time. We would've never ordered from this place if it weren't for Seamless. It's definitely a little rustic. But the food is always yummy and the service very friendly.

I tried Lee Sims for some holiday chocolates... OMG... we got salted caramels, raspberry jellies and coconut clusters... amazing. And fantastic quality for the price.

I'm sorry folks but there are to my experience 4 must have eats in JC that you can't get anywhere else 1. Monteleones , (There's a reason there is a line outside of the bakery during the holidays) 2. Lee Sims ( If you don't know what it is , your not JC) 3. The mustard /custard that the Astor Bar makes for St. Pat's cornbeef . 4. A burger at the Park Tavern , it may not be the worlds best but in JC in that bar it's the best I've had. Honourable mention , the orange drink at Blvd Drinks. Sorry Louie, Casa Dante's was better.

The Kitchen at Grove Station http://www.grovestationkitchen.com
299 Marin Blvd, on the back side of that big office bldg The food is delicious (brunch: grits, pork belly sandwich, almond croissant). The decor is cozy, casual, and hip (amazing transformation in what was probably a very sterile environment before). The service is outstanding - they went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, attended to, and completely satisfied with our experience. I love everything about this place and will be taking many, many meals here in the future!

It seems like they've gotten friendlier the last couple years. The person who threw a soda can at me when I (politely!) pointed out I'd paid for a drink and not gotten it with my order doesn't seem to work there anymore.

Many places have been covered, but I?ll throw a curveball in with... the bar pie at Astor Bar for lunch.
I happen to also like Olala Empanadas. Quote:
I?ll second this, but add in that I really like their burger. It tends to be my Friday staple. Quote:
The must order there is the dumplings. After that, their egg sandwich is incredible.
