Mikie Squared

Great prices, great atmosphere, hospitable bartenders! They will make you want to be come a regular! Mix crowd, usually from ages 21 – 35! Love this place!

1 Star is too many. I stopped in here today for their fish taco special that looked like a decent price. There were a good amount of customers outside so I figured the food must be good. I walked by some service staff as I came in and sat at the bar. They saw me but didn’t acknowledge me. There was no bar tender behind the bar so I waited. I waited a good ten minutes before I left. Kind of ridiculous.

Had the opportunity to try this spot in hoboken last week. I must admit I was extremely surprised at the amazing ambience. Isaac and Joe and the rest of the staff were extremely friendly. Isaac is an amazing bartender and manages the place with great ease. He really knows how to treat all customers like a family. He is a great asset to this wonderful place. Lastly, I must say that the food is amazing the Filet Mignon tips are finger licking good. highly recommend it for all.

My boyfriend and I came to Mikie Squared for two reasons: one, because on Thursdays, martinis are half priced and two, because my boyfriend’s roommate works there now. That being said, Mikie Squared did not disappoint, and I will certainly be back, especially for their Wednesday trivia night.
Though it was martini mania, my boyfriend and I got a strawberry margarita and a Blue Moon as our first drinks (Blue Moon was also on sale and my boyfriend is a big beer drinker). My strawberry marg wasn’t too sweet or overflowing with alcohol — perfect for a Thursday night meal. Later, my boyfriend ordered the mango martini (don’t judge him) and it was definitely mango-​y, but in a good way. Being the girl I am, I enjoyed the fruity taste that masked the overwhelming taste of alcohol.
Instead of ordering two entrees, my boyfriend and I decided to split three appetizers — the buffalo calamari, the tomato and mozzarella salad and the spinach and artichoke dip. Let me just say now that each of these appetizers was incredible. The mozzarella at Mikie Squared is homemade, and you can taste the effort put into making it. The buffalo calamari is also a unique spin on regular fried calamari; combined with the creamy dipping sauce they provide, this was by far one of the best appetizers I’ve ever had — especially since as a pescetarian, I never get to eat buffalo wings and this is a great substitute.
The best part about our experience was that the staff was friendly (especially since we knew some of them) and I always felt like we were being paid attention to – our water cups NEVER went dry. When the bill came out, I was surprised that three drinks and three appetizers came out to under $ 50, but in a good way. I love Mikie Squared and I can’t wait to go back.

Solid brunch spot with good drinks. Get the breakfast burrito and a man-​mosa (blue moon beer, champagne, shot of stole orange vodka)

Quality of food tends to change day to day, but if you go on a good day it’s amazing. Also this place usually has good specials.

I love this bar! After coming here enough times I have come to appreciate everything about this place! The staff, the atmosphere, the clientele, the drinks, and the fact that it’s just the right size and not overbearing.
You can come in here for brunch, lunch or dinner and be sure that anything you eat/​drink will be on point! My favorites are the maple chipotle wings, filet mignon tips, and their montaña de nachos.
Their bartenders are awesome too, they play great music. Ask for Isaac, tell him Cecilia sent you! Hands down: the best Bloody Mary. Some of my drink favorites are the pumpkin spiced martini, and the peach sangria.
They definitely nailed their motto, «good food, good drinks, good people.» Seriously, what are you waiting for go try it!

I’ve been in here twice now, both on Wednesdays. The food is good, especially for a place that looks like a bar (loud music, lots of TV’s). The first time I had the «Cindy’s always on a diet» and I really enjoyed it. The honey balsamic side it comes with isn’t my jam, but it’s ok because you don’t need it, the chicken is moist and the veggies are well seasoned. Maybe not worth $ 13 – 14, but coupled with cheap wine, it made a decently priced meal. Last night I had the special, which was a corned beef sandwich. I’m no corned beef connoisseur (mainly because it’s usually on a reuben with two of the grossest things someone can put on a sandwich– swiss cheese and sauerkraut), but I really enjoyed it. It came with chipolte mayo, which was kind of a weird addition but seriously amazing. Like, I could put that on anything. Even the cole slaw was worth eating by itself. I like that there was no upcharge for getting a side salad instead of fries. Salad itself is just mixed greens and two tomato slices, but it was fresh and well dressed.
They have half priced wines on Wednesday, which is always welcome. They also have trivia… I didn’t play either night but the questions weren’t ridiculously hard and it’s well paced.
Teddy the bartender took care of me, but all the staff I interacted with were friendly. I’ll definitely be back!

I don’t know what happened to the food here, but it’s gone downhill since my last visit about a year ago. I ordered a buffalo chicken salad that came out like flying saucers on a plate. I won’t get too detailed about what happened next, but I took two bites and left shortly after. I really liked this spot and hope it was just an off night for their kitchen.

This is a weekly Sunday spot I go to with bae and drink tons and tons of Sangria. They have great deals on Sundays which includes $ 10 pitchers of Sangria. I especially like going there when our favorite bar tender Isaac is there. He always makes our time spent there wonderful. The food is great as well, we highly recommend the Buffalo Chicken Wrap and the house wings. Good deals.

I enjoy the food here, especially the Filet Mignon tips– delicious!
Good selection of beers and drinks to choose from. Clean and cool spot to drink/​eat.

I’ve always liked Mikie Squared, and have a special appreciation for it’s small town bar atmosphere. It’s different than most of the bars in Hoboken, and has a way of keeping friendly clientele absent of roid rages after a couple of beers. The staff is the likely reason; they are always smiling.
Our waiter tonight was no exception to my previous experiences, and despite coming in for a few drinks, he was awesome and made us feel right at home. He made the suggestions of a chocolate peanut butter shots to my wife, and she loved them. I appreciated the selection of beers and loathed my punkin ale that tasted like pumkin.
This is always a spot on bar to go to.

Had problems with the online ordering. Staff was very helpful on the phone. When our food finally came however it was not very good.
I am not updating the review because after this was posted the restaurant ended up calling and refunding me. We will definitely visit the restaurant in person because I am sure it will be a great place to visit.

We like this place. To be honest, I liked it better as Rogo’s way back when, but it is still a solid place. The waiters and bartenders and even bouncers are nice and friendly and attentive, it has decent chairs and booths that are comfortable to hang out in and watch the game, and the food is actually really good. The only reason it doesn’t get 5 stars is the prices are really high. A sandwich wrap with fries can set you back like $ 14, which is kind of steep compared to other places and other bars/​grills in Hoboken. So look for their specials and happy hours, and save a buck. Decent brunch too. They are also usually really cold inside, regardless of the season, so be prepared.
Our favorites are: Chicken Quesadilla, Alyssa’s Everyday Chicken Wrap, and Onion Rings (super crispy, greasy, and delicious)…and Yuengling :)
The Stevens college crew used to dominate this place, but now it is much more hipster/​yuppie Hoboken types, which is actually better (weird to say).
Service is fast and attentive, they bring you water right away without having to ask which is nice, and don’t mind filling it up versus other places that expect you to only drink alcohol the whole time. If you stay hydrated with water, you actually drink and spend more, so good job Mikie Squared!
I will continue to be a regular here.

Wah I wish this place got better reviews. I’m pulling for you, Mikie’s! I often order takeout for lunch, but I’ve been here multiple times for brunch, dinner, and a drink when I felt it necessary to sit at a bar by myself and sulk.
Food’s been good every time I came. On some occasions it has been great.
One of the guys behind the bar (I wish I remembered his name) makes a mean mojito. The mimosas are so good… try the Manmosa! We stole that one and made it a signature drink at our wedding.
Cozy place. I love the décor, great atmosphere. Sometimes it smells like a watering hole but hey, shit happens. I bring everyone here… family, friends. 5 stars.

We stopped in for lunch and had an enjoyable meal.
Décor: It’s a bar, there’s not much more to it than that. However, they have a handful of tables inside and outside and even have a large window that they open on nice days (so you can sit inside be feel like you’re outside). Overall, it’s pretty dark inside but that just makes it easier to see the bunch of TVs they have that are showing any kind of sporting event on at the time. The actual bar itself is pretty sizable and runs the length of the front room.
Bathroom: unknown
Staff: Our waitress was nice and kept our water glasses full almost the entire time.
Food: We just had lunch, so no drinks. But many others were boozing away during Sunday brunch. We started with the Lobster and Corn Chowder (yum!) and then had a salad and wings. Everything was very tasty, the only thing is that I wish the wings were a bit hotter (temperature wise).
Value: The prices are right about what we expected.
This is a solid place that I’d come back to again for drinks or some more food (their menu looks pretty solid).

I recall this place being cheap but Jesus H. Christ don’t order the Martini’s here. You are asking for a trip to vomit city the next morning.
They have a cool touch screen juke box which you can use to your advantage to liven up the joint (hint: this place isn’t all that interesting.)

This bar is really great for any day of the week. Trivia night Tuesday’s, Friday happy
Hours, sports game nights, or Saturday dinner dates. We’ve made trivia night here a tradition– they give away great prizes and really get everyone involved. My only complaint is that they take too much time in between rounds for Trivia, so everyone cheats! They should shorten the time so everyone has to think quick.
Good people & good times Also, amazing bar food!!!
Usually, when you go to a bar you should expect the regular mozzarella sticks and fried food menu that’s pretty mediocre. This bar has healthy food and a selection too! AND it’s delicious!
My group of friends and I got a burger, the veggie wrap and a salad All of them were absolutely excellent. This surprised me for a casual bar but their food was GREAT and it’s a fun time to go to to hang out. I highly recommend this place! :)

Place was great, easy to get to. The bartender was chill, she was on top of our drinks at all times. The pre made frozen margaritas pack a punch.
My girlfriend had a sandwich, it came out in a timely manner and she loved it.
I would totally come back here again for drinks or casual bar food.
It’s definitely a small venue, but wasn’t near packed at all. It was a Monday night though, so I can’t account for the weekend crowd.
They had a bunch of TVs to watch the Eagles game but I’m pretty sure there was no volume on the TV.

I go to Mikie Squared for trivia on Tuesday nights and once in a while on weekends for drinks.
The service is excellent; the bartenders are so friendly and attentive they are some of my favorite in Hoboken! Tuesday for trivia is always a good time and if you’re getting some appetizers I highly recommend the Filet Mignon tips — they’re so delicious. It is pieces of filet mignon on garlic toast with this awesome green pesto sauce. I have no idea what is in the sauce but it’s great. You wouldn’t think you’d get that good of food at a place that serves the standard «bar food»…but trust me it is.
This a great place to watch sports games, hang out for trivia, or just grab a drink.
