Jody's Club Forest

I had my son Anthony’s 21st birthday party at Jody’s Club last night and everything was great. We had the party in their private room to the left of the main restaurant/bar. The food was delicious and the three girls attending to us(Meagan, Avery, and the 3rd girl) gave us great service and were very attentive and accommodating. The owners Terrence and Meghan were also great and patient with my requests as far as room layout, decor, the flow of the party, and having a small DJ setup. Terrence, the owner, was a gentleman and very patient with me and my requests. I would definitely have another family party there and would def recommend their party room, which caters small party up to about 50 people. Thank you once again, Peter Sciortino.

Wonderful food, beautiful area. Keep in mind, this is a bar. Do not expect quiet. There is a separate floor dining area, as well as options near the bar. Food is phenomenal, and I would greatly recommend going with family. Restrooms are accessible, and well-maintained, I've dined here many times and have never encountered any issues. However, there are only 2 1-stalled gendered patron restrooms, so a line may form during busy hours. Amazing service, however during busier hours, wait times can increase by 5-10 minutes for certain things, including water.

From the moment you walk in you feel like family. Also have the best teriyaki wings and cheese steaks on Staten Island. Hands down my favorite spot on the island to eat and have a drink.

Hosted my Daughter’s Baby Shower at Jody’s on October 20, 2024. Terence, Meghan and Mozie were wonderful to deal with. The staff were so friendly and attentive to my guest. The food and drinks were excellent.
