As a fairly recent newcomer to Jersey City, I for one greatly appreciate your opinions on Jersey City cuisine and usually find myself agreeing with most of your assessments. Have you ever tried Tania's Polish Restaurant or Rita and Joe's? I've never been to either of them and was just wondering if there are any opinions. BTW: Jersey City has 5 synagogues and is the corporate headquarters of Manischewitz.

I had a late dinner at Subito last Friday night and it was full when we got there @ 9:00. It is a BYO and there is a full dinner menu. We were seated at the bar and they opened our wine while we waited for a table. Staff was gracious and accommodating but I think the kitchen has some timing problems as first the appetizers and then the entrees were served in stages. Menu is standard Italian and there were a few specials offered. Calamari were well-flavored and not greasy. Pasta and meat portions were generous. Cavatelli was undercooked. All in all, not dazzling but I would definitely go back in a few weeks when they will hopefully have worked all the kinks out of the kitchen. I hope this place becomes a viable option for Jersey City.
