We had one simple mission in mind when we started, to make takeout and delivery better.

that’s the gtk way

guilt-free + full of flavor 😎

vegan / gluten-free / dairy-free friendly 😎

β€œWait, so, like, what kind of food is it?
What’s their thing?”

Our menu doesn’t quite cover everything, but we make a LOT of things really damn well. Our niche is offering a constantly evolving menu of varying flavors to satisfy all your cravings.

you have questions, we have answers

  • You know it! Join our loyalty program to get rewards for being a "regular".

  • Of course! We work extremely hard to find the best raw ingredients (local when possible) to create our dishes but we don't like to brag about it. We just think that's the way it should be.

    We also like to partner with awesome businesses and providers like Fable Food or Sip N Swirl who promise the same high-quality commitment.

  • More than you would think!!! Learn all about our vegan and gluten-free friendly options in Jersey City HERE and in Hoboken HERE.

  • Of course! We love to feed small offices, large offices, co-working spaces, and events.

    All catering orders must be scheduled at least 24 hours in advance.

    Call us to talk custom menus developed by our team for special events, submit an inquiry or just click HERE to place a catering order direct.

  • When we first opened in 2019, we called our concept "Ghost Truck Kitchen" because like ghosts, no food trucks actually existed in our kitchen. But, we wanted to create a takeout experience that mimicked that of a food truck festival -- where everyone can easily order the best of the best of whatever they're craving. So, our culinary team created a variety of menu concepts that allowed us to serve our neighborhoods in just this way!

    In 2021, after some confusion around our name and realization that our true customers call us "gtk", we shifted our brand name to go-to kitchen.

    But, as Jon Bon Jovi said, who said you can't go home, right? Keep an eye out for updates here in 2024 on our updated brand vision for the future πŸ‘€

  • Because you live too far away, perhaps? Peep our Jersey City and Hoboken pages to see if you're in either delivery zone.

    NOTE: Will travel outside of our standard delivery zones for catering orders, pending the size!

  • Yes, butttttttt we BEG of you... ORDER DIRECT LIKE A GOOD NEIGHBOR!

    Third party services (like Uber Eats) take between 20%-30% of EVERY order.

    Please order through us here to save on delivery fees and earn loyalty points!

  • That's a big, proud yes!

What Hoboken + Jersey City Are Saying About gtk

β€œConsistently one of the best restaurants in Hoboken / Jersey City hands down. Ive ordered for myself, family, friends and coworkers and they all love the food here. Pulled pork burrito and the Steak sandwich are the best. The desserts are also amazing. You can tell everything is fresh and handmade quality food. I love it!”

β€” Kevin J.

β€œThe sweetest establishment ever! This is my second time ordering from them in a day and wanted to share how nice they made me feel while under the weather. Also their food is literally amazing and so fresh, probably the best tomato soup I have ever had!!!”

β€” Sahana K.

Amazing food! And amazing service. Order delivery from here a lot and food is always consistent and delicious. A single time I had an issue with an order and when I called the employee was incredibly nice, polite, and apologetic. Sent out the corrected order immediately and threw in some extra treats. Would definitely recommend.”

ABOUT OUR
FOUNDER

Andrew Martino grew up in New Jersey, but got his start in hospitality working at a bar while attending Syracuse. Post-graduation, he disappointed his mother and took a job as the General Manager of a restaurant and bar on Long Beach Island, NJ in 2007.

A few months after Superstorm Sandy in 2012, he moved to San Diego. In his time there, he served as a bar manager, general manager, and director of operations for various restaurant groups including launching multiple new concepts.

In 2015, he started Martino Hospitality Services focusing on concept creation, menu development and operational analysis. That year, he also settled down in Jersey City with his now wife and dog.

After years working for both corporate and private clients on hospitality operations + tech and during his research in 2017 on future food trends, Andrew came up with the idea for gtk.
