If you're into burger diners, check out "Dillalo Burger", it's a burger diner style restaurant in Ville Emard just off Monk Metro.

Chinese food. The real stuff in Chinatown. Even the buffet Chinese food was good, but there are no buffets around anymore.
Sometimes I get urges, in the middle of the night. I love egg rolls. I like the ones in the restaurant. The authentic ones in real Chinese restaurant. I even like them at the buffets. I keep some frozen ones in the fridge and microwave them for a few minutes to cook the inside and then use the broiler basket to crisp up the outsides.
Napoli’s on Washington Street in Hoboken (about 11th), great brick oven pizza with ample selection.
Torna Pizzeria on 9th Street (a few avenues off Washington), which has an incredible Sicilian slice that needs to be topped off with extra sauce. The place looks like a dive (good for takeout), but it’s scrumptious. See Barstool’s Dave Portney’s review of Torna’s Pizza Hoboken on YouTube. Pretty funny.
Best advice if you want to cross the river for pizza: Hit Napoli’s for a few slices, and then get a Sicilian (with extra sauce) takeout at Torna’s. The Sicilian at Torna’s is a must.
A Sicilian slice from Torna’s and a cold Guinness while watching a NJ Devils game on TV is something not even Montreal can offer. But then I’d rather eat frozen Elio’s than most Montreal pizza. Lol

Frank Sinatra is the most famous native of Hoboken, yet he did not eat his pizza in NY or NJ. He knew better and had his driver take him to Sally's in New Haven, CT. Sally's is full of photographs of Sinatra dining there:

If it's good enough for Frank, it's good enough for me.

That’s an interesting tidbit EB. I didn’t know that. You have to remember when Sinatra was in Hoboken this place was kind of a dump. Only during the late 80s did Hoboken become one of NJ’s best towns. There are a couple of bars still around this square mile city that Sinatra frequented. Hoboken holds the distinction for most bars per square mile.
You eat at Sally’s at all?

It's in my backyard, so the answer is yes, many times to Sally's, Pepe's and Modern, the so called "Holy Trinity" of New Haven pizza.
I could never understand why New Haven was the pizza capital of the US but evidently it is.
looks like Sally’s is temp closed until mid- late Feb
