Breakfast restaurant located in Jersey City. We’ve been there in a Saturday morningb and had a great experience. The place has a welcoming atmosphere and there were tables available. Staff was so lovely with us! And the food is great, delicious and with a fair price. We’ll be back for sure!

I really, really want to love Gia Gelato Cafe — I loved, loved, loved the place under the previous owners and was a regular here. for months now I have been trying to become a regular again. But now, while the staff is friendly and I like them and I really do want to love the place, the food is never really cooked properly and the service is slow. After many repeated tries, I think I may have to admit to myself this is no longer the place for me. They NEVER toast the toast — only slightly warm and dry our some pieces of bread and they most often don’t provide butter for the toast (though if you ask for it they will bring some. They often don’t cook bacon well enough either. I just recently had the breakfast quesadilla and it was cold. I don’t mean it just wasn’t hot and only a little warm. I mean it was cold. So cold the shredded cheese didn’t melt at all and some of the bacon was actually 100% raw. It’s like the cook/chef is afraid to actually cook things. Also depending on who is there the service is slow. The staff is SUPER nice, but hardly speedy and some seem not quite on-the-ball. I am very sad to say this is not nearly the place it used to be a few years ago. Such a shame — but basic cooking skills and speed of service are key to whether a place is good or not — and this place struggles in both areas.

I ordered from them one day on Uber eats, I was so impressed with the food and presentation! It’s soooo fresh, today I decided to go down there and check it out myself I got take out and to my surprise, when I got home and opened my food the avacado toast had tomatoes and onions on it. It was so delicious! I think they didn’t have too much avacado left so they substituted to make it more full. This place is deff gonna be on my top for breakfast for a while thank you!

I’ve had gelato here before and thought it was great- pretty authentic and good flavors. I’ve never tried the breakfast before today and I’m sooo impressed. So good!!! Will be coming for brunch often 🙂

A nice, tranquil place to relax and treat yourself. I love the quinoa salad (pictured). I also suggest the homemade Argentinian empanadas.

Very polite staff, my wife and I shared the cheesy grits which were amazing! She loved her natural oatmeal and the taylored ham egg and cheese was made to perfection. Will definitely be back again

The female owner of the shop is really nice and polite, and always welcome you with a smile . However, the male employees act arrogant as if they are better than you. And talk about you most likely in their language. They laugh at you if you’re polite and use human decency and manners, such as saying thanking you and smiling at them. They must not be used to polite friendly people in their lives. The food is ok. But I’d like people who aren’t snobs because they live in “downtown” jersey city serving me. I’ll go to Dunkin donuts with the normal people.
