  Ordered the spinach and artichoke dip app here last night and was HUGELY disappointed.

  first, for anyone who’s ever worked in a restaurant….they used those cheap nacho chips that come in the huge clear bag. they are the cheapest chips you can get, small and round, and yellowish/orangish. they taste horrible.

  the dip was obviously pre-packed and not made there.

  it’s a shame, i like their burgers, wings, and my wife always gets the chicken.

  last night she got the spicy shrimp pasta dish and it was great. but i was almost inclined to tell them how horrible the chips and dip were. too bad i didn’t

  Chips are so easy too. Fry them in house and they taste so much better.

  It has been a few months since I bartended there but I remember the dip was always a fan favorite.

  I’m not sure if Mike and Cindy (the owners) read 411, but I would definitely suggest saying something. While I was working there, they were very much concerned about quality control from their kitchen and bar.

  I was housesitting on 8th & Hudson back in December. I had dinner in Mikie Squared one night. I just had a burger. It was good,pricey but good. The days of Dooley’s and Dipper’s are gone unfortunatley for alot of reasons. I wish I could remember what it briefly was called before it became Dipper’s. Whoever posted about bar bathrooms being downstairs being a bad idea. I couldn’t agree more. Oddfellow’s bathrooms are downstairs as well as Hudson Tavern. I will not use a bathroom that is downstairs in a bar. I’ll just “P” on your floor. Only Kidding

  even tortilla chips. anything. madison’s has toasted bread for their dip. it’s perfect. i worked in restaurants before, so i happen to recognize these as the cheapest chips a place can possible get. they usually go under mounds of velveeta and other toppings, so most customers never taste them.

  i’ll mention it next time i go there. but my sister-in-law is a chef, and she’d laugh at this dip. she makes a simple one at home that costs next to nothing. for a $9 app in hoboken, the dip should be better. it looks and tastes like it’s out of a can. fine – but get better quality. and the chips are just pathetic. i’ll ask for the owners next time. hope they are there. i’ll definitely go back cause i love their food – but this was utter disappointment.

  Decide if you are a bar or a restaurant!
  I can decide for you..you are a bar
  Why, you ask?
  Because you food is simply awful!

  I’d just like to say my new obsession is their Filet Mignon wrap. The fresh mozz & sauteed onions & mushrooms. OMG. I dream about this. I want one now. So Juicy Delicious.
