Finally was able to get a reservation at this very popular Italian spot in Hoboken. The experience did not disappoint. Went for a birthday celebration with a group of seven. The place is a little tight but cozy. Service was excellent. But the real star of the show is the great authentic Italian food. Pork chop is excellent. I had chicken parmigiana, which was outstanding. Will definitely try to get here often.

I hosted my husband's birthday party @ Augustino's in Hoboken, NJ All my guests couldn't say enough about what a fantastic evening they had! The restaurant's atmosphere is warm and cozy. The food was excellent. The staff was extremely accommodating . The owner Sharon and her sister Christine were the life of the room! If you have the good fortune of getting a reservation @ Augustino's , take it! You won't regret it! Fran

Food was delicious. Atmosphere is like an old school Italian restaurant. Heavy wine pours but they could definitely have a better selection of wine.

Worth the wait! This is our fourth year in Hoboken and our first opportunity to go to Augustino's. Reservations are tough to come by so I recommend following them on social media as they sometimes post last minute availability. Be sure to bring cash as it is cash only. We started with the meatballs (amazing!) and calamari. I loved the calamari but would recommend a lighter appetizer so you'll have room for each course. My husband had the orecchiette with sausage and broccoli rabe. He was on the fence about picking sweet or hot sausage, and they recommended he get both! Perfect compromise. I had the best carbonara of my life. For dessert, we split the famous ice box cake, and I might want to get this as a birthday cake next year. This truly feels like the perfect old school Italian dinner, and we had wonderful and welcoming service. I would love to come back and see all their Christmas decor in December.

Delicious! I was able to get a last minute reservation and the food and service was great! Highly recommend the Cold Calamari Salad, it was probably my favorite thing on the menu. The Artichoke Heart Francese as an appetizer was great too. They also asked if we were still dipping the bread in the sauce before taking the plate away which was something I appreciated! We also got the Spicy Sausage with Hot Grapes and Balsamic sauce appetizer - it was so good and different! For my entree I had the Filet of Sole Piccata with a side of vegetables and it was so light and tasty! For dessert we had the house icebox cake and it was so yummy and comforting. Augustino's is a great staple in Hoboken!

I can't believe I have never left this gem a review. This is one of our regular spots in Hoboken and my FAVORITE Italian restaurant in New Jersey. The food is so fresh and no matter what you order, it's delicious! Everything is delightful, from the pasta to the fish to the meatballs, and even the complementary bruschetta they bring you at the beginning. They even make great martinis, and they give generous portions too. Not only that, but the service is incredible. From the moment you walk in, you feel like family. Augustinos makes you wish licking your plate was acceptable. MUST TRY!!!

Wow living in Hoboken for years and finally went to Augustino's - such wasted time!!!! Why didn't I come here sooner??? Best Italian food in Hoboken hands down. Already trying to figure out when to come again. Tips and thoughts: - Meatballs were the best I've ever had. A recommendation from the server. They were soft like butter, yet so moist and tasty - Chicken parm was great. Cutlets were thin. Sauce was great with a touch of sweetness. Pasta was perfectly cooked - My husband had veal Milanese (no judgement) but he said it was also the best he's had. The arugula salad on top was dressed and not just thrown on the plate. Veal was thinly breaded as well - Icebox cake was a great ending. Light yet fulfilling. Overall the hype of this place is real. Make a reservation. Bring cash. We came here in January and they were already filled for Valentine's Day and pretty much all Saturdays. Plan in advance. OR walk in at 5:00pm on a Tuesday night (like we did) and hope you get lucky. Stop waiting. Call them now.

Visited 10/24/2022 Came here with family... and got the best table, right in the window. We'd heard so many good things about Augustino's and as it turns out... everything we heard was true... Everything was excellent. Food, service and ambience. Apps for the table were Caesar and mesculin salads, stuffed peppers with risotto and sausage, sausage with grapes (Wow! I really liked this dish... sweet and spicy. SOOO good! ) Entrées were Sunday gravy with braciole, sausage and meatballs, sautéed porkchops w/ vinegar and hot peppers, a veal chop and a couple other pasta dishes I can't remember. lol. Everything was very tasty... although I would have liked my pork chop to be a little less 'well done.' While tasty enough for me, the vinegar sauce was needed to help make the chops moist and juicy. They were large double chops and there were 2 of them, so there was plenty for a meal the next night. But to be fair... I could have... should have asked for the chop to be served medium/medium rare, so that's on me. Service was excellent... and there was a nice selection of wine and beer. I can easily see why this place gets such good ratings.

After eating my way through Hoboken over the last 10 years, I FINALLY made my way to Augustino's. Let me tell you I'm so sad I didn't come years ago. This place feels incredibly homey and comfortable - like you're at grandmas house. Reservations are a MUST as there's only a handful of tables. Also worth noting it is cash only. Some of the must try things here are the chicken parm and the icebox cake. I'm still thinking about this cake as I write this review. Besides that, we shared the mussels and the shrimp marinara for apps. The sauce was delicious. Great for sopping up with the bread. I had the sunday sauce special which came with what felt like a pound of meat. All delicious. Can't wait to come back here again.
