Where to eat in Hoboken?
There are many very good restaurants. I think the best place is Amandas. I have been there several times, and I really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Also try Sri Thai (down to earth atmosphere), Sushi Lounge (good food, loud music), La Isla (brunch especially), and Favia (for the health conscious).

View from Hoboken

Hoboken is situated just across the Hudson River from Manhattan. The Hoboken waterfront offers a serene view of Hudson River and a panoramic perspective of Manhattan. My wife and I have always loved the view, especially the sunrise: the river glistens, and Manhattan silhouette emerges. It is truly an uplifting experience.
