Restaurants
Jersey Rentals - Property Manager
Fort Lee has no shortage of great places to eat. From five start sit down places to hotdog vendors, there is something, and something else, for everybody. Fort Lee has a large Korean community, and catering to that are many Korean restaurants. So Kong Dong is hailed as the best in the city, and relatively cheap. For a high-end meal in Fort Lee, Hiura for Japanese, Prime & Beyond for American/Steakhouse, or Khloe Bistrot for French fare. All very elegant, relaxed, and a little more pricey. For a quick bite, Hiram’s Roadstand is a local favorite, serving hot dogs, burgers and such, and Bibby’s Mediterranean Cafe serves hot quick falafel and kabob meats. These are good places to start for any of your dining needs, there are plenty of places to go from there.

The George Washington Bridge ends directly in Fort Lee. It connects, over the Hudson River, to the Washington Heights area of upper Manhattan. This bridge is the world’s busiest motor vehicle bridge, accounting for much of Fort Lee’s travel. The borough is also served by the New Jersey Turnpike (I-95), Palisades Interstate Parkway, as well as Route 9W, Route 1-9, Route 4, Route 5, Route 67, Route 46, and County Route 505. Many of the routes converge as the George Washington Bridge Plaza, making adjusting routes easy. All of these routes make for quick highway access, but for those who’d rather avoid driving in high traffic, there is also convenient public transportation available.
