Johnny Rockets

It’s been a long time since I’ve ate at Johnny Rocket’s! However, as I was passing through I decided I wanted a quick bite! Johnny Rocket’s has been in business for a long time and the employees take pride with this business. I ordered a burger and you can tell the quality compared to a regular fast food chain! Plus, what other establishment puts a ketchup smiley face on your table! Follow me on social media: Instagram: BillyBangCCars YouTube: Billy Bang Cars

It was my very, first time trying out Johnny Rockets while we visited Hoboken. Loved the super funky exterior but when we ventured inside... WOW! It honestly felt like we'd stepped back in time to the 50's! The retro-looking seats, the feel and vibe of the place, along with the old record selectors they used to have back in the day (although these ones no longer work, it was still cool that they were part of the diner!) They had old tunes playing, which added to the diner vibes. With us visiting during the week, we were able to find a seat immediately, greeted by the lovely young lady working there. We had time to browse the menu, which offered things such as fries, tots and onion rings, along with burgers, sandwiches, and salads also. I must say, their hand-spun milkshakes are AMAZING! I opted for the peanut butter one and my word, it was delicious! Super creamy, thick but not too thick that you couldn't suck it through the straw. When the young lady came back to take our orders, we started with the onion rings which were super crispy and tasty, being complimented by the ranch sauce on the side. For the burgers, you have a choice of a single patty or a double. I ended up going for a single Route 66, which came with Swiss cheese, grilled mushrooms, caramelised onions and mayonnaise. The burgers don't come with fries, so you have to specify if you'd like them. But the burger itself, along with the onion rings was very filling. Pressing down the burger, I could see the juices from the burger and biting into it, was a real taste sensation! SO MUCH BETTER than anything you'd get at McDonald's or the likes. The burgers were fresh and cooked to order on the big grill in the kitchen, full of flavour from the first bite to the very last. THIS is certainly a place I'd come back to, without a doubt! A big thank you to the young lady who served us, as she was super pleasant and a pleasure to interact with. We exchanged brief pleasantries with the chap who was at the bar, as we were leaving (I believe he may have been a manager/the owner). Would highly recommend if you're in Hoboken, looking for a bite to eat in an awesome establishment!

First time at this establishment we got to the location like ten minutes before closing we had went all over Hoboken and most places were closed. We apologized for last minute Madia was very sweet took our orders and brought us our food. Food was fresh and correct and delicious. Appreciated their hospitality will return. Keep up the good work you guys👍

Stopped into Johnny Rockets just needing to use the bathroom and the staff was kind enough to let me without even buying anything. That level of hospitality really stood out. Out of gratitude, I ordered a shake afterward and it was absolutely delicious. Great people and great service I’ll definitely be back

Me and my daughter were looking for a proper American diner experience. JR didn't disappoint us perfectly cooked food. The food was amazing. The staff were very helpful. Went there twice in the 2 weeks we were there. Took my other daughter who lives in New York she had never been, and she really enjoyed it.

I've come here a few times, I decided to take sometime to write about how this place makes me feel. let me talk of this person first who greeted me, and brought food and chatted for a few shuffling moments his busy work let him. Dennis, the store manager, brought me a chicken burger, fries, a vanilla milkshake, and most importantly he did a little smiley with the ketchup on a mini plate. for somebody like me who hardly goes to diners for burgers and munch off on quick food made on an assembly line like kitchen and delivered off by people who just call you by an assigned number, this recent Johnny rockets experience was refreshing. I wanted to know its history but also chatted away with Dennis as to why he migrated to the realm of food. he has a genuine human bent and an honesty about him. the way he shuffled his attention between many orders was perfection perhaps given his long years of work. I asked if I could take a picture of him with the food which was also great with fresh ingredients , thanks Dennis .... the restaurant is a beauty and the food is real

Decided on a whim to go to Johnny Rockets in Hoboken because they were opened late. Everything was cooked fresh and the server was the nicest. Haven’t had one in years since the Queens location closed so truly enjoyed the “ol school” atmosphere.

This Johnny Rockets is far from what it used to be. Today, I ordered a vanilla malt shake and it was far from the thick shakes I used to get here. It was more like milk with a touch of malt and vanilla ice cream. To make matters worse, I told the person who took my order that I was staying and he packed it to go.
