2021 is rapidly coming to a close, which means it’s time for year-end roundups spotlighting some of the year’s best new eateries. Yelp, for example, has posted its annual list of the top 50 North Jersey restaurants. The list includes seven of the best Jersey City restaurants.
Pinwheel Garden and Sushi by Bou managed to squeeze into the top 20 at number 15 and 17 on the list, respectively. (Pinwheel was also on Yelp’s list last year). Newly opened Cafe Alyce also came in at number 24. (The latter made it on our list of best brunch in Jersey City).
Rounding out the list were The House of Hot Chicken (30), Tino’s Pizza (33), Andrea Salumeria (40) and Sam AM (42).
Yelp’s annual list is created using a restaurant’s total volume and ratings of reviews from January through November. Absent from the list is one of our 2021 favorites, Brick Lane Jersey City.
