Plaka Souvlaki - Greek restaurant in Hoboken - 62 Newark St., USA

I was a little skeptical to eat here at how small it was. In and out kind of vibe. But the food looked so good. And it was more than that. I’m just lost for words at how good the food is. I ended up staying and it was chill vibe. No one rushed me out and they were all so sweet. I found a new Greek spot!!!

While we are visiting New York City from Canada, we decided to drive 20 minutes to eat Greek food at this restaurant based on the excellent reviews. Our experience surpassed our expectations! My daughter wanted to give it more than 5 stars. My son wanted to come back again. The front desk server was super considerate, professional and friendly! Thank you for giving our family a great experience!!

I was very excited to give this restaurant a try. When I arrived I was lucky to find parking on the street nearby. I walked in and was greeted. I ordered the chicken skewer platter with rice and pita. The nice guy that worked there came and spoke to me as I waited. The restaurant was super cute. I loved the decor. After about 8 minutes, the food was done, and I left. When I got home I ate and the meal was very good. I enjoyed the chicken and rice combo. I just had to add a little salt to it. All in all I had a good experience.

I’ve eaten here maybe 50+ times and every single time it’s amazing. It’s my go-to takeout option because it always comes so quick. This place is fantastic, best Greek food in Hoboken.

It's a cute little spot. Just a few tables. Most people order for delivery or to go. Since we were not a from Hoboken, we opted to eat in. Roberto and the team were helpful and friendly. We ordered the Platter: Pork Souvlaki, Rice, Hummus, and Dolmades Pork was nice bite sized, I did wish it had a bit more seasoning, rice was good, hummus was nice and creamy, and dolmades were good Kotobacon Souvlanki (chicken wrapped in bacon), Lemon Fries, Eggplant Dip and Baked Butter Beans This was hubby's plate. Bacon wrapped anything is delicious, hehehe. He loved the lemon fries. It was good. I just don't like thick fries. Eggplant dip was good, different as you can see pieces of eggplant and not just a mush of something lol Baked butter beans, ok I didn't think I would like it but it was delicious, I ate half LOL We went with his cousin, who is a picky eater. He ordered the same Platter as I did with the exception of the dolmades, he got the Avocado Tzatziki instead, which was a good choice! His cousin ended up raving about the food. A separate order of Loukaniko (Greek Village Sausage). This was so good, I'll have to order it next time. We all tried the different flavor of the flavored Sparkling Water. Orange, Pink Lemonade and Sour Cherry. They were all good flavors. But we all liked the Sour Cherry more than the others. Hubby ordered a rice pudding to go. It was so good! We're going to have to go back just to get the rice pudding hehehe We had a delicious meal and friendly conversation. I do wish they had a location in Bergen County. This restaurant is set up in a style that can be franchised and should be. 😀 Spread your delicious food! Parking is such a pain in Hoboken. There is a paid parking lot one block over on the other side of the CVS across the street.

Everything was very good. For me, the two things that weren't great were using chicken thighs instead of chicken breast (I don't like mouthfuls of fat and grizzle) and the french fries were in the sandwich (just odd). These are purely my issues, so I don't fault the restaurant. Staff was friendly and pricing was reasonable. I would recommend trying if you are in the area. It's very convenient to the train station and the food was prepared quickly!

the first look at the shop - wow! Cute, beautiful decor, and glad their food matches the vibe! I ordered the chicken skewer platter with lemon fries and a pita also giant beans at the side & their sauce. My wife ordered Chicken wrap. ( I guess I should have gone for rice as the Fries were too much for me and so thick were the fries, not used to) chicken wrap - it was good, but it should have more sauce in it. it gets dry at the end with no sauce left in the wrap. Hoboken area: full of Crowd celebrating st Patrick's day and it took 30 mins to get the parking. woohoo, a crazy evening it was.

I was drawn to eat here after looking at someone’s fresh-looking dish when I was walking by. We got chicken souvlaki and lamb/beef pitas - they were not greasy, the pita was warm, the veggies were fresh, and the sauces were the right balance. Very pleasantly surprised and great staff. The Greek fries were delish - nice kick of lime and the feta wasn’t overwhelming.
