So there's VERY limited drunk food options in Hoboken…this is basically it. If you like cheesesteaks, Clem's will do the trick for a late night bite! But honestly, if you're not drunk, save yourself and go drive yourself elsewhere..
Clem's theme is Boardwalk Food, so expect a bunch of fried greasy food options. And unfortunately that includes the insane Boardwalk prices also.
Cheesesteaks- even my friends that consider applebees' food to be a "good meal" aren't even too fond of the steaks. Meat & cheese pretty much always tastes okay when you're looking for some drunk food. But it's obvious the cheesesteak is poor quality. The roll is thin and flimsy. Meat isn't too flavorful.
Cheeseballs- I finally tried their "famous" cheeseballs, which were featured on MTV and Chelsea Lately– completely overrated. They're really just Mozzarella Sticks in the shape of balls. Can't even wrap my head around why they're famous.
Their customer service makes me not want to spend a dime on their food.. Without a doubt they ALWAYS have an out of order sign on their bathroom. And regardless of how much you spend on their overpriced food.. Chances are they are NOT going to let you in. Sometimes the male employees will let you in, only if you're a girl.
They once overhead me tell my group of girlfriends that I refuse to order food unless they let me use the bathroom, 5 seconds later they hand me over a key to the "out of order" bathroom. However, anytime I've been with guys… No getting in. And that's absolutely ridiculous.
All that said, their cheesesteaks will do the trick as drunk food. I'd never spend my money there on a normal occasion… Hahahha.
I have had several cheese steaks and obviously some were better than others. The uniqueness of Clems is their cheese balls. I will have to be honest I was not too sold on the idea of cheese balls at first but not loving fried foods is almost un-American.
Overall, the sandwich was pretty good. The cheese balls added a great crunch, the quality of the cheese is questionable but I am just going to disregard that because this is not a high end place so you are getting what you paid for.
The place itself was kind of disgusting, but that might have been due to the fact that I came pretty late and the drunk crowd was already there and probably several other drunk crowds before then.
It is a slightly above average cheese steak.
Wow are the cheese steaks phenomenal. The California includes lettuce, onions & tomatoes, for an extra taste add mayo and mushrooms as well. The bread holds everything together making every bite as good as the last. The fries ($4.00) are ok nothing amazing but if your in a mood for a great cheese steak, this place won't disappoint, not to mention service was very fast, on point and friendly.
Eh, falls short which is sad because of the name built on the Seaside location.
Been here a few times now and with each time, the quality declines. My overall assessment: not a good late night spot which is sad given the closeness to the path and the fact that late night is my favorite time to have a cheesesteak. Late night, the place is polluted with the amateur hour crowd of hoboken, the staff is visibly agitated, and the steak is re-heated (gross). Just a REAL trashy atmosphere. Plus, although the pocket bread idea is great, it's not the freshest tasting- last time i found it real dry.
When i've been here for lunch or non-busy times, the experience is much better.
I don't see this place lasting long, but as long as they are here, i will be getting my cheese balls on.
A far cry from the Steaks Unlimited I'm used to down in Seaside! Aside from the cheese balls (which are still delicious here) there is not much comparable between the two. DTS (down the shore) the bread they use is soft and melts in your mouth, this one, the bread seemed old and tough. They both use the half moon pocket bread, but just two different worlds in terms of the quality of bread. Also, I ordered the Seaside Tony in Hoboken and it seemed like you could count the amount of cheese balls they put in there on one hand. As opposed to the stuff-it-to-the-limit technique they use DTS. Now don't get me wrong, you'll probably still find me chomping away at this place after a long night, but it just isn't quite Steaks Unlmtd in Seaside!
Everyone and their mother who has ever lived in NJ spent countless summer days down the shore in Seaside Heights and can remember all the great food. Steaks Unlimited located in Seaside Heights is NJ's own version of Pat's and Geno's Philly cheese steaks. At any given time you can find a line of hungry patrons waiting on line for a cheese steak just off the boardwalk.
Lets welcome the brother store to Hoboken!
I heard they were opening a second store in February so i had to check it out.
First off i would suggest they get an awning or something out front because the place is kind of hard to find. But its located right across the street from Green Rock near the train station.
I was so happy to see the menu was the same and they were even wearing the Seaside Heights shirts…Of course i ordered a cheese steak. It was so good. Hands down one of the best cheese steaks you can get besides going to Philadelphia.
The workers are very nice, the prices are just as expected, and the quality is just like the original place down the shore. I paid $8.50 for a cheese steak and a bottle of water.
The owner was completely unaware they were not listed on Yelp yet, so i figured i would help him out and add the business.
When I think cheese steak, I think Clems Steaks Unlimited in Seaside Heights, NJ. Hands down one of the greatest creations I have yet to taste. So happy they opened another store in Hoboken now I won't have to drive an hour and a half for my cravings. I discovered this gem after a yelp event last night and I promised my friend I would pick her up from the train and I just so happened to find a spot on the street, I looked to my left and saw the sign. I was so excited that all my frustration of driving through Hoboken had disappeared once I saw that sign.
When I went inside I noticed the owner and said hello, he actually remembered me from years ago. I ordered my usual cheese steak with onions and cheese and a side of cheese balls. IT WAS AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to come back and try out some of the other options.
