The hotel (and the adjacent condo complex) have their own ferry stop right next to the hotel (you have to be a hotel guest or condo owner to use it/buy tickets). It's a great way to get into the city... but it's also expensive (~$7-$8/tix) which is about $30RT for two people. The cheaper option is to take the bus which picks-up/drops-off in front of the hotel and is $3.20 each way (iirc).

The hotel restaurant changes hands frequently, i haven't been there under the newest owner (might be there for about a year or so now). There is a Ruth's Chris across the street as well as a Houlihan's (with decent happy hour food and drink specials during the week, as well as a limited early bird menu). The office building complex also has a food court area where most of the restaurants close n the evening, but there may be a bagel/breakfast place that is open early for a quick/cheap bite.

For restaurants (and non-chain bars) you'll need to head to Hoboken which is now an easy walk from this hotel given the walkway which has recently opened... northern end of Hoboken is just a 5 minute walk but the southern end of Hoboken would be a bit more moderate walk about ~25 minutes. If you let me know what type of food (and budget) i can make some suggestions.
