Skinner's Loft - Jersey City, New Jersey

We unfortunately did not eat here, but judging from the locals that piled into this restaurant and were greeted by the staff with warm and extended conversations, we'd say this restaurant is a special place.

Even if we missed seeing the family atmosphere, the simple menu alone tells you this is a serious food place. They're not trying to sell you everything but the kitchen sink, just the good stuff, consistently and deliciously prepared (from what was saw:)

Whomever designed the place, the lighting, the warmth, really knows how to seduce and create an environment out of a movie. You just wanna go in there.

The staff is beyond friendly and not at all surprised we instantly fell in love with the place, "Hey! It's Skinner's, an institution in these parts."

Skinner’s Loft is a cozy brunch gem with a charming rooftop and great vibes. The food is fresh, the cocktails are solid, and everything feels thoughtfully done. Perfect for a laid-back weekend brunch in Jersey City.

This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion.

My husband and I had a beautiful, intimate wedding ceremony/dinner on the rooftop! The view was amazing, the staff was exemplary and they sent out some fantastic dishes on the house. We are so so grateful for this perfect evening 💝💕

Punch drunk love cocktail 🍸 was good. The food was okay. Tad over priced in my opinion, for a $45 steak and fries that was kinda lackluster. Perfectly cooked but not much flavor. The salmon was alright as well. Again cooked great, but nothing really special. Thank you for the experience.

Not an expert of Jersey City…..yet. First day here and was excited to start searching for good places to eat. I wanted Salmon and saw a photo of their Salmon with garlic Spinach and lentils, so - I headed to Skinners loft. I would rate my dining experience a 4.7. Let’s breakout down
1. Ambiance - 5 Stars. Loved the diversity of bar, outdoor and the loft (indoor). Some historical look to the loft and I appreciated being away from the bar to read.
2. Food - 5 Stars. Also had the buffalo egg rolls. Their blue cheese dipping with a little buffalo sauce on the rolls were awesome. The garlic on the sautéed Spinach…… Que Rico!!!!
3. Service - 4.5 Stars. Main server had to be supplemented by another for refills on beverages but they were polite and kind. Soft spoken and wanted more recommendations but solid
Did see the restroom. Love more character, but it was clean which is more important. I’d return. Give it a go.

Me and my wife went for an early dinner. The server was pretty dry and direct with little personality but he wasn’t bad. We had the Beef Brisket potato rounds, Cauliflower Steak and Brisket Sandwich. Everything was properly cooked, being just a tad under seasoned all around. Nothing bad about the experience but it didn’t impress us and with the slew of restaurants near Grove, nothing makes this place be the #1 choice. I hear the rooftop bar is the highlight but I didn’t get to see that this trip.

Delicious! We came here for a Sunday brunch and both the tostada and breakfast sandwich were delicious. The little muffins they bring to your table were such a nice (and tasty) touch as well! The atmosphere is trendy and fun too.

The Kitchen is awesome… great food & products. They have a lot of local & organic products, like meat, seafood & beef. They work for and with the community.
