As good as that looks, I must say you messed up. THis is the ONLY reason to go to NJ if your a NYer, and that reason is FOR THE STEAK!! it is amazing, outstanding you pay 24 bucks for what you would pay $150 in the city for. They cook it right, the seasoning is perfect and the potatoes are unlike any other place in the WORLD I have eaten them. Only thing is to watch out for that Pepper, it looks like a Tomato…ITS A HOT PEPPER!. Ahh I love this place.

Arthur’s is a decnt spot for burgers. I like their Blue cheese burger best. But the best burger in Hoboken is Zak’s on 3rd & Willow – less than a 10 minute walk from the PATH (probably 2 minutes away from Arthurs). Juicy, flavorful, and much better fried onions or sauted mushrooms on top if you like those options. Their rolls hold up well, too. Buskers also makes a decent burger.

The reason to go to Aurthur’s in Hoboken is for their steak. It is a 24oz. RibEye that costs $24 and comes with potatoes. Is it aged meat? Not that I can tell. Did rare order come out MR? Yes. Was it the best steak for the money in the tri-state area? Yes.

i agree with dougie boy — those bk burgers look disgusting….this burger looks all right, bacon looks good but the onions definitely dont look appetizing. hoboken is cool 1 day of the year, and thats on st pattys…other than that, the only reason to go to hobo is to hang out with Joba chamberlain and get drunk.

Also, @wriskit, the trip to Hoboken from Manhattan takes about as long as it takes to get to Park Slope in Brooklyn, not to mention half the places the food guy has gone to.

And AGAIN, Hoboken blows. Jersey City’s where it’s at.

Whoa! Come to Jersey City if you want good food, I can’t remember the last time I had a good meal in Hoboken.

A good burger place would probably be Skinner’s Loft. They have filet mignon sliders that are really excellent. Their burger is good, too, but nothing jaw-dropping.

Jersey City deserves some love, food guy! Look up Nha Trang for some awesome Vietnamese.

My god, wriskit, just hop on the PATH train and pretend you’re on the subway going to the UES or some similar godforsaken place. You don’t need a passport or have to go thru Customs. Sheesh. I thought the “Manhattan lifelong city dweller” was just a joke when I saw it on Sex and the City.

Even if it were delicious and affordable, it would not induce a trip across the Hudson into unexplored pioneer territory for a city dweller who could spend a lifetime just searching for the best burger in NYC. BTW, I was in Hoboken once. I had lunch at Sinatra’s favorite “red sauce” dining place. As i recall, it also has the red and white checkered tablecloths. The food was underwhelming.
