6 vegetarian dishes to order at Uncle Rocco in Hoboken
Uncle Rocco's menu at 112 Willow Ave lists six dishes as meat-free: the Veggie Wrap, Greek Salad, Baby Kale Caesar, Mac 'n Cheese, Avocado Toast and Lemon Olive Oil Pancake. They sit on the main menu rather than a separate section, and two of them come off the brunch board, so timing matters.
For vegetarian food in Hoboken, Uncle Rocco keeps its meat-free dishes on the main menu instead of in a corner of it. The dietary page names six of them as meat-free as listed. Here they are, with what the menu says goes into each one.
1. Veggie Wrap
Roasted mushroom, zucchini, aji amarillo, spring mix and mozzarella. Of the seven sandwiches and wraps on the online menu, the Veggie Wrap is the only one with no meat in the listed fillings. The mozzarella is made in the building, and the dietary page notes the wrap contains dairy. Online you can swap in a gluten-free tortilla for a small extra charge. When you order it online you pick fries or a salad to go with it, and delivery goes out with the restaurant's own drivers.
2. Greek Salad
Cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onions, oranges, olives and dill vinaigrette on romaine. It is the one salad here with fruit in it. The Greek Salad can also be made as a wrap when you order online. Of the add-ons the ordering page offers (chicken, avocado, shrimp or steak), avocado is the one that keeps it meat-free.
3. Baby Kale Caesar Salad
Baby kale, parmesan, Caesar dressing and croutons. The menu does not list what goes into the Caesar dressing, so if you keep strictly vegetarian, ask about it before you order the Baby Kale Caesar. It is the other salad on the menu, built on baby kale instead of the romaine in the Greek, and it has the same make-it-a-wrap option online.
4. Mac 'n Cheese
Cheddar cheese sauce with lemon herb crumbs, on the Apps & Pasta part of the menu. One guest's Google review, quoted on the menu page: "loved the breadcrumbs and creaminess". When the delivery apps were read on September 13, 2026, Grubhub's most ordered list for Uncle Rocco had the mac 'n cheese in its top four. For a child there is also the Little Mac on the kids' menu, which the family brunch guide covers.
5. Avocado Toast
Whipped ricotta, avocado and roasted cherry tomatoes. It sits in the Brunch & Sides section with the Breakfast Burrito and the French Toast. The Avocado Toast comes off the brunch board, so it is served from 9 AM to 4 PM Friday through Sunday, and to the 1 PM close Monday through Thursday.
6. Lemon Olive Oil Pancake
A lemon and olive oil pancake topped with berry compote and whipped cream. Same brunch hours as the avocado toast, from 9 AM to 4 PM Friday through Sunday and to the 1 PM close Monday through Thursday. There is nothing to customize on it online, so it comes as listed. The pancakes guide compares it with the French toast.
Ordering for a table with mixed needs
One order can cover everyone using only what the menu itself states. The vegetarian at the table has the six above. A gluten-free guest has the Gluten Free Brownie with Ice Cream for dessert, and the rest of the table has the burgers, the rotisserie chicken and the steak frites. Dairy is the thing to watch: the Veggie Wrap and the Avocado Toast both contain it, the Mac 'n Cheese is built on a cheddar sauce, and the pancake comes with whipped cream. None of the six is labelled vegan on the menu, and the catering page says the kitchen will do its best with vegan requests if you call first.

Before you order
This list stops at six on purpose. The kitchen labels these dishes itself, and the dietary page does not stretch the list by reading ingredients and drawing conclusions, so neither does this one. For a dessert, the Gluten Free Brownie with Ice Cream is the one labelled gluten-free, and the Baby Bread Pudding is not available gluten-free.
The kitchen makes its own mozzarella, sauces and desserts, so a request to leave something out is usually one the line can act on; ask when you order rather than assume. It is a shared scratch kitchen, open to the dining room, and it cannot promise a fully separated preparation area. If a requirement is medical, tell your server or call (201) 238-2484 before you order. Everything here also goes out for pickup and delivery from the online ordering page, and the full list is on the menu.
