Outstanding in every way

Our wedding at Battello was truly the best night of our lives, and we cannot recommend them enough. From the very beginning, Dominique was AMAZING. She was so responsive, transparent, and made the entire planning process incredibly easy and enjoyable. There were absolutely no hidden fees, no stress, and no surprises — just genuine professionalism and care every step of the way.
The entire Battello team went above and beyond, but Tammy deserves a special shoutout for being absolutely FANTASTIC on the day of our wedding. She was there for anything and everything we needed, always calm, organized, and ready to help. I can be a bit of a control freak, but their team made me feel so comfortable and confident that I was actually able to fully trust them and truly enjoy every second of the night.
And the FOOD — our guests still cannot stop talking about it. We heard over and over again that it was the best wedding food they’ve ever had. Every detail was executed perfectly.
To top it all off, our weather forecast looked terrible all week and showed rain for most of the day. Somehow, Dominique worked absolute miracles. When the rain cleared, she and the team quickly arranged tables, chairs, heat lamps, and couches outside so our guests could fully enjoy the beautiful waterfront atmosphere. It was above and beyond anything we expected.
Battello truly cares about the experience you and your guests are having, and they go the extra mile in every possible way. If you are considering having your wedding here — GO BOOK IT. You will not regret it.

Highly Recommend!

My wife and I had our wedding at Battello earlier this month and we cannot say enough good things. From the staff: Megan, Tammy, Bobby, all of the bartenders and servers, the effortlessness they allowed us to feel on the day of due to how organized they are, the level of communication and support throughout, it was all really a dream. Guests still have not stopped raving about how incredible all of the food was. Of course the venue itself is absolutely stunning and the perfect setting if you're wanting a chic but rustic vibe with breathtaking city views, but the staff there really makes it that much better. As the couple and as a guest you will truly feel catered to every step of the way. We could not recommend it more for couples looking in the NJ/NYC area!

Our magical winter wedding

I cannot recommend Battello enough for any upcoming couple looking for a wedding venue. Living in the Hoboken/Jersey City area I have heard lots about the food and views that this restaurant “Battello” has to offer over the years. Eating there prior to even getting engaged I knew this was the place for us. Not only did the food exceed the local reviews, but the space was so romantic and the staff so attentive. In late 2024 Alex and I got engaged, and had Battello booked 8 days later for our magical winter wedding in December 2025.

Upon meeting with Megan, the events director, she was welcoming, knowledgeable, and extremely organized. Everything was laid out for us making this entire wedding planning year so seamless. She was available in an instant and always so willing to help. I am so thankful to have worked with her and to know her for this past year.

The food options were beyond our wildest dreams.. I think the hardest thing we had to do was narrow down to our favorites because there were simply too many favorites.

Our day went off without a hitch. Many of our vendors have strong relationships with Battello which speaks to their level of professionalism and recognition within the community. There was never a doubt in my mind it wouldn’t be just breathtaking and it sure was. Tammy, our day of coordinator, could not have been more wonderful. She certainly knows her stuff and make the ceremony, to dinner, to speeches flow so seamlessly.

Alex and I wanted this wedding to share our love with the ones we love most but also showcase a piece of our home. We still have friends and family complement the staffs level of detail, the quality of service and cusine, and of course, the million dollar view. I had a family friend state she’s been to a lot of weddings “even one in a castle” and this exceeded them all.

The best part getting married in a restaurant is that soon we get to come for dinner, and relive the best and most magical day of our lives…

Battello is certainly the place to wed.

Best Day Ever!

This venue is incredible - from the scenery to the food/drinks to the service, we couldn't ask for anything better. From the minute you step into this venue, you're greeted with warmth and the beautiful scenery with the iconic NYC skyline in the background. The venue transforms into an incredible atmosphere with a large dance floor, great mix of table setting and an impressive well stocked bar. Outside of the venue itself, the food and drinks were AMAZING. From the tasting (which is essentially a party for couples), we knew we made the right choice. The food and drinks were the thing we got complimented on the most. With our friends and family claiming 'this was the best food and drinks we've ever had at a wedding.' Other than the venue, foods, and drinks, we can't give enough kudos and compliments to the team at Battello. Megan/Dominique/Tammy and the rest of the team were the stars of the show. From helping us select a date, curate our menu, running the show, bustling the wedding dress, and ensuring we had the best night of our life - we couldn't have asked for a better team to trust. Anyone getting married here is so lucky and we wish we could do it all again. We will definitely be back (for brunch/dinner) and hope all our friends get married here.

100% Recommend

Having Battello as our wedding venue was truly a dream come true.

Venue:
The space itself is gorgeous, and the views are spectacular. Our guests loved being able to check out the view from the pier, and the easy flow between rooms for the ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and after-party.

Staff:
The staff at Battello is truly top-notch. Megan, our venue coordinator, was THE BEST. She was so responsive, kind, and helpful. I felt so confident going into the day knowing that Megan would be overseeing the event.
Tammy, the bridal attendant, was fantastic. She anticipated our every need, made sure we were able to enjoy all of the food & drinks, and helped the timeline stay on track. Tammy also was a huge help with my bustle and veil - a total pro!!
All of the servers and bar staff were great, as well.

Food:
The food at Battello is excellent. Guests raved about the food, especially at the cocktail hour. Our stations were Paella, Pasta, and Seafood. Our dinner entrees were Scallops and Filet Mignon. The Scallops and Cacio e Pepe are particularly out of this world.
For dessert, Battello prepared a beautiful tiered wedding cake, and the zeppole station was a big hit.

The best day!

Our wedding at Battello was truly magical, thanks entirely to the exceptional staff who made it all possible. I had the pleasure of working with Megan for over a year, and her dedication and professionalism were nothing short of outstanding. On the day of the wedding, Tammy went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly—assisting with my dress and providing support to me and my family in every way imaginable.

Throughout the entire planning process, I felt an immense sense of comfort and confidence, as the Battello team clearly possesses deep expertise and experience. They are remarkably responsive, highly organized, thoroughly professional, and consistently warm and welcoming.

Our wedding day was perfect in every way, and we owe that to Battello. Friends and family are still raving that it was the “wedding of the century,” praising the breathtaking views, exceptional cuisine, and ideal location.

One of the aspects we cherish most is that Battello operates as a full-service restaurant during the week, allowing my husband and me to return often and relive one of the most memorable nights of our lives. We wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend this venue and its outstanding team.

BEST wedding venue ever

Megan helped plan the perfect day with her team for almost two years with my husband and I - answered every email within minutes and made it a completely seamless experience start to finish. Everyone keeps telling us that this was the best food at any wedding ever - agreed!!! I also could not have done anything on the wedding day without the help of Tammy, who managed every second of the day - from drinks and food for us ready to go in the bridal suite, to bustling my complicated dress, to keeping the entire run of show going smoothly. THANK YOU SO MUCH! We could not recommend this venue and team enough!

Best Venue I could’ve asked for!

I just had my wedding here last weekend and I could not have asked for a better event staff! From the beginning I worked with Megan who is very kind, accommodating, and responsive. She helped me feel confident every step of the way and without her my vision wouldn’t have come to life! The whole staff handles every single detail with professionalism and expertise and the day of is a true example of how perfectly they execute their events. We had absolutely 0 issues, everything went according to plan and I had no stress or worry that they would deliver what we had planned. We did the ceremony and reception here and the room flip was seemless as well. The bridal attendant, Tammy, is absolutely amazing. She was attentive, knowledgeable and kind to my whole bridal party. She helped my sister bustle my dress so quickly and brought us anything we could need all night long. We also had the pleasure of Dom being our day of coordinator, so we had a touch of each team member and loved them all! I seriously cannot recommend this venue enough. Everyone I speak to had the time of their lives and I am local to jersey city so I’ve met a few people who had their weddings here as well, and raving reviews from everyone! Worth every dollar and so thankful I went with them :)

Battello - A dream come true!

From the moment we stepped into Battello during our tour in May 2022 and met with Dominique, we knew we had found our dream wedding venue. The stunning space, with its breathtaking NYC skyline views and modern design, set the perfect backdrop for our special day.

One of the standout features of Battello is their commitment to hosting only one wedding a day. This made us feel like we were part of the Battello family, rather than just another event in their lineup. The personal attention and tailored experience we received truly made our wedding unique and unforgettable.
Tammy, our day-of attendant, was incredible. Her attentiveness and seamless coordination ensured that everything ran smoothly, allowing us to fully enjoy every moment without a worry.

And let's talk about the food! Our guests are still raving about it. The culinary team at Battello truly delivers the best of the best, making dining a highlight of the evening.

Overall, our experience at Battello was nothing short of magical. If you're looking for a venue that feels personal and special, with exceptional service and outstanding food, we wholeheartedly recommend Battello. Thank you for making our wedding day perfect!
