Blue Eyes Restaurant
When planning your perfect day, look no further than us. Our mission is to offer guests an authentic Italian cuisine and pizza experience, food that's prepared with uncompromising quality on a daily basis. We offer a variety of coffees, from the traditional American, Espresso, Cappuccino to more exotics like the Viennese and the famous Nutella Cappuccino.

This is my favorite restaurant in Hoboken. The owners, managers and staff go above and beyond every time we are there to help make it a special experience. My husband and I honeymooned in the amalfi coast and the authenticity of the food at blue eyes brings us back to that trip every time!
Services
We proudly own a wood burning oven made out of bricks that have been flown from Naples, Italy, to offer you the most authentic pizza Napoletana. We also serve a variety of pastas, appetizers, paninis, desserts, gelato, and assorted coffees. Our restaurant sits on the Hoboken waterfront facing the gorgeous view of the New York City skyline.
We always aim to bring you the freshest dishes, and that's why our menu changes every season based on the products available. We offer pasta variations including whole wheat and gluten free, as well as gluten free pizza! Classic vanilla and chocolate gelato separated by a cherry and sliced almonds covered in cinnamon, finished with a chocoalte coating.
We do not have our own parking space, however there is usually street parking on our Sinatra Dr! Please be aware that we don't reserve specific tables. We do our best to keep our costumers happy, we make sure a table is available for the size of the party at the time of the reservation but because we have costumers coming in and out at all times, we cannot guarantee a specific location / view.

This place is selling frozen food reheated. Owner can care less if he loses business. Was served uncooked fish and also saw a roach running down the floor. If you even think of coming here DONT. I was sick all last night from uncooked fish. Also my son got this slice in his pizza. Molded cheese.

Really enjoyed an impromptu brunch at Blue Eyes. I have no idea why we haven't tried it before. I wasn't that hungry but wanted to sit down and enjoy the weather and needed an outdoor area because we were on a walk with the dog. They were very accommodating for our large pup in narrow outdoor area.

We had mango nectar mimosas (they made it with less juice to make it less sweet for me) and shared the burrata. I had the pear and walnut salad and my husband has the shrimp linguine. Everything was good.

The best part is the view. Will definitely be back for it.

The food was decent but the view from outside is the main selling point. We ordered the penne vodka, margherita pizza, and Nutella pizza. The penne was my favorite part of the meal. The Nutella pizza definitely needed something extra to make it taste better (option of fruit or hazelnuts on top would've been good) - it was really just pizza dough with Nutella but it didn't mesh well enough. Overall, decent - I wouldn't mind coming back if we're looking for a place by the water but wouldn't rush back either.

Meh. The location is nice - on the water, and we watched the sunset. But the food is pretty meh. The frittura was fine but not crispy in the way I think the best calamari should be. The pizzas were decent. The pasta was unflavored and watery. While the pasta was cooked al dente, the sauce was pretty shameful. We got both the Bolognese and the octopus pasta. Both were watery, lacked salt, and flavor.

The service was fine but not great. The host was friendly and charming. I'd say the price to quality is pretty off.

If you're looking for location, it's lovely. But don't go

Easily the best dining experience we had during our stay.
If not for time constraints we would have returned. As soon as we walked up, staff were right there. Not just one or two but 4 employees were right there to seat us. A fabulous table overlooking the water and walkway was where we requested to sit and a table was immediately sanitized.
Our waiter was attentive and brought our drinks quickly along with taking our order. Great wine options and the sangria was dangerously good.
We had the Granchio, Tagliatelle al Ragu Bolognese and Spaghetti ai frutti di mare. Everything was perfect with

Yummy Italian food right by the waterfront- you get great views of nyc and the water while enjoying a nice meal. The only downside is that since everyone seated outside wants to be close to the water, all of the tables are fairly close together.

Their grilled octopus with arugula salad on the side was phenomenal. I am glad I had it. It definitely satisfied my cravings for octopus. It was super soft and perfectly charred which gave the dish so much flavor! Would order again.

The waitress was super unfriendly. She spoke abruptly and rudely when ordered our drinks. When I asked for an extra glass, she again had attitude get the glass. When we ask for a wine menu she checked to see if our menu had a copy in the back. Of course the wine list was missing.
Never came over to ask if our food is okay. But she asks our next table politely how their food is. The fish is dry like pork chop well done.

We keep coming back here with our family this summer! It's the perfect place to impress with a view of sailboats skimming the NYC skyline AND grab an Aperol Spritz.

I absolutely love the pizzas here (they're medium sized, thin crust, amazinggg sauce from Italian tomatoes) but the salads and pastas are great as well.

Blue Eyes reminds me of hanging out at a cafe restaurant on the Amalfi coast. We always get a warm welcome, the owner is lovely, and can't wait to go back soon!

My friend and I went to Blue Eyes for dinner this past Thursday - we wanted to hear the Beatles cover band that was playing that night as a part of the free Hoboken concert series so we got there a little after 6:30 pm to make sure we could get a table outside. We had no issues securing a table for two in their uncovered outdoor patio area; it seems like there were open tables throughout the musical performance so no need to get there too early. There were a lot of servers working the outdoor area and they were all very friendly. They immediately brought out complimentary bread with a bruschetta

A mouthwatering meal and a fabulous view of the water is the best dinner combo in the world- don't you think? Located on Sinatra Dr. in Hoboken, NJ, the view of the Hudson River is everything- plus these folks have a faithful following. Coming here was wrong on sooooo many levels- but my sister gave my nephew the upper hand in selecting the restaurant of his choice for his celebratory graduation dinner.

Long drive aside, I was hoping Blue Eyes at least look the part of a splendid "waterfront restaurant". Nope. Service? Not even. Except from my girl Andrea who took care of us for

I will preface this saying we didn't come for dinner and it likely affected the whole experience.. but that's why I'm giving it a 2 rating versus a 1.

When we came in the host (owner?) was super friendly! It was later in the evening, and we had already had dinner at a different restaurant. We wanted desserts, some nice drinks, and the view!

We were very quickly shown our table and given menus. The server was friendly until I mentioned we would likely just be getting drinks and desserts. He frowned and took away our silverware and proceeded to ignore us for a good half hour! Honest

Went here for lunch following my sister’s graduation. They were out of almost EVERYTHING on the menu. Half of our party needed to pick their 4th or 5th choice. Service was TERRIBLE. Really slow and inattentive.… We had to wave them down multiple times to even get our order taken. What little food they had was decent but I’ll never go here again. Terrible

Kudos to Blue Eyes Restaurant for being the only restaurant in north Jersey that was available for a 13 people reservation with such short notice! I've never been here before and I was a bit hesitant because of the reviews but my family and I decided to give this place a try.

We visited on a Saturday night around 7:45pm. Parking in the area? It's Hoboken haha! I was lucky to snag a spot right in the front of the restaurant. Even though it was metered parking I only had to pay for the spot until 9pm (free parking after 9) It was as easy as downloading the parking app to pay.

This is my go to neighborhood pizza place! I stop by many a night for some red wine and savory authentic Napolitano style pizza. Always the perfect crunchy crust and good thickness! It's hard to eat more than 2 slices so best to go with a friend or two! It has an old school vibe and stunning location with very friendly staff. Bon apetit!

What i tried -
Nutella pizza: you can't go wrong with this one. This was delicious and the base was cooked well
ricotta spinach ravioli : this was good but not the most extraordinary dish I've had ‍
tiramisu: I was so happy to finally satisfy my craving after a week.
Views are pretty
