NJ | Riverside Italian Dining with Stunning Views 🌅🍝

At the end of a Hudson River pier, Battello faces the Manhattan skyline—especially magical at sunset. The semi-outdoor space glows with warm light (it’s also a popular wedding venue!). Seafood-focused Italian dishes were all solid, and the atmosphere made everything better. 🍞 Housemade Potato & Onion Focaccia ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ Soft bread with truffle honey butter—rich, savory, addictive. 🧀 Pecorino Zeppole ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fried dough balls with aged ham and spicy honey—salty, sweet, delicious. 🥩 Prime Beef Tartare ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Coffee oil, chili, sun-dried tomato, capers, Parmesan, toast—good, but not the best tartare. 🦐 Shrimp Cocktail ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Classic chilled shrimp with spicy lemon cocktail sauce—fresh and light. 🍚 Spicy Lobster Risotto Arrabbiata ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tomato saffron risotto with lobster—creamy, spicy, satisfying. 🐟 Branzino & Seafood Pescatore ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tender sea bass with fregola pasta, asparagus purée, pancetta, cherry tomatoes—perfectly balanced. 🥔 Ricotta Gnocchi ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ Soft gnocchi with sausage ragù and garlic potato mousse—tasty but filling. 📍 Battello 502 Washington Blvd, Jersey City, NJ 07310 #BattelloNJ #WaterfrontDining #ItalianSeafood #HudsonRiverViews #NYCFoodie #MustTry #DateNight #SunsetViews #NJFood #RomanticSpot #NYCEats #FoodWithAView
