I've been working with a similar stack lately: MongoDB, ExpressJS, Node and Backbone/Marionette (Sorry, no snappy acronym). I've found it to be remarkably productive and would recommend giving it a try. Also, it's a lot of fun! If you're using Backbone (and apparently everyone is), you would do well to layer some structure on it with a framework like Marionette or Chaplin.
