City Bistro is a family-owned, three-floor restaurant, lounge, and rooftop in uptown Hoboken serving Italian American comfort food, cocktails, and good vibes. Run by longtime local restaurateur John Avoletta, it’s equal parts neighborhood hangout and celebration spot—think lively main-floor bistro, a second-floor dining room for groups, and a full-service rooftop deck with views of uptown Hoboken. Expect a crowd-pleasing menu (pizzas, pastas, burgers, seafood), a broad drinks list, and a social calendar that leans festive: live music most Thursdays, DJ-driven Friday/Saturday nights, and the signature Saturday Brunch Party at noon. Reservations are encouraged for the main dining rooms (the rooftop and patio are first-come, first-served), and the team hosts private events across multiple spaces—up to cocktail-style capacities on the roof. It’s a casual, upbeat spot for date night, birthday groups, or a sunny afternoon on the deck.
