Our crew of friends and family decided to host a holiday dinner party here and it was absolutely…read moreawesome. The location is amazing and chic from the moment you walk in. Usually BYOB spots struggle to create the right ambiance, but this place has something special going on. We may have had a bit too much fun because we literally closed the place down with the staff. The food was outstanding. I highly recommend ordering a few appetizers and sharing them at the table because that is what we did and everything was deliciously decadent. The burrata was packed with flavor and the basil foam was impressive. The octopus with potatoes hit perfectly. I already know I need to go back for the crab empanadas and the short rib croquettes soon. For our mains, my wife and I shared the short rib yucca gnocchi and the lobster and ricotta ravioli. Amazingly tasty across the board. This place delivered from start to finish and we will definitely be returning.

Went in hopes of a good experience but left underwhelmed by it all. Apart from the table seating…read morethe entire experience wasn't the best. We were left ignored for over 20 minutes after seating. Finally when the waiter arrived for a drink order we had asked for a coffee to start. That didn't arrive until almost another 25 minutes and were told the bar area was busy. The food itself wasn't amazing or memorable. Ordered the cauliflower app- the sauce was too watery and didn't coat or stick to the cauliflower. If it was thickened it would glaze the cauliflower and you could actually appreciate how good it was and the dish would be so much better. For the mains we ordered the salmon burger and lemon ricotta pancakes. Both were ok but nothing amazing. The worst part was the speakers playing a happy birthday song that was extremely loud that even 2 other tables looked confused and disturbed by it. It played for well over a few minutes. I can appreciate a party being celebrated but not at the expense of the patrons in the restaurant. Also just a heads up- they add a 2.5% service charge to the bill. Only noticed this because the table seated next to us shared this and were upset by it.

Füdgarten - where life meets flavor! The food scene in Fort Lee is bustling and competitive. This…read moreorganic, fast casual eatery doesn't fail to stand out from other businesses. I've been enjoying meals here since 2021 and I've never been disappointed. Füdgarten is the ideal spot to grab a healthy bite during a lunch break, after a work out, or for dinner. There's plenty of seating inside if you want to dine in. The interior is modern, clean, and inviting with lots of greenery. Their menu is built on natural ingredients and bold flavors. You can choose from diverse options like salads, bowls, sandwiches, wraps, burgers, protein shakes, etc. They use grass-fed beef, free-range chicken, wild-caught seafood, and locally sourced organic fruits and vegetables. They carefully craft their recipes and every item is made with love and care! Yes, the prices are on the higher end. But I'm happy to pay for higher quality food... because what you put into your body matters A LOT ;) I've tried a little bit of everything and they're all delicious. The food is packed with vibrant flavors and generous portions of protein. My top recommendation would be the Big NY (~$16). It includes steak, onion, mushrooms, romaine, feta, and lemon cilantro vinaigrette. I usually get it on a whole wheat wrap and it is to die forrrrrrrrr!!! The steak is super juicy and tender. All of the ingredients work so well together! One bite and I was in love. I also love getting a side of baked sweet potato fries ($6). Even the ketchup they use is organic and only made with REAL tomatoes. Don't forget to grab a bottled Kombucha ($5) from their fridge - a tangy, fizzy, sweet, and refreshing drink! The owner, Mike, is the man!!! Haha he's very welcoming, personable, and really cares about customer service. He's the type of business owner that will remember your name and order. And the cherry on top... they have their own parking lot. That's a major perk in this area. If you haven't been here before... get to it!

The Bartender (Carolina) was attentive and lively and made a great Manhattan! We tried several food items (see pictures) and each one was delightful - tasty and nicely presented. We met some great people and the GM also greeted us as we left (dressed impeccably & very professional) If you're looking for a wonderful Happy Hour... this one is great! Will return!

Ambiance is nice and big. I'm assuming the time I visited (1:30) maybe was deadish due to it being more of a dinner spot.

My sister got the short rib, she said it was a tad dry but very tasty, the polenta was so good! The squid ink pasta was flavorful and cooked perfectly, and the mussels were fresh. The fries were also really good, which sounds simple but makes a difference. The customer service was warm and attentive without being overbearing, and the view is absolutely amazing, definitely adds to the whole experience. Would absolutely come back. We also got a brownie with caramel gelato. Can't wait to come back!

The lady helping us that night was friendly and even helped us make choices that was best for us which we appreciated. We ordered four different types of pasta and calamari to start. I'd say overall everything was good. The cheese based pasta was a bit heavy but the flavors were nice. Some of the wine prices were actually much better than other areas (especially when compared to the city). Cute intimate place that would be great for a date night. Came here after dark but feel like coming for brunch would be good as well to really get most of the view. I'd say definitely worth a visit.

There is a good selection of premium sakes, Japanese whiskies and craft beers, and a small menu of well-executed Japanese dishes.

Drinks were reasonably priced but the whole experience falls apart at the bar. I went here on a Thursday night, and was floored by how terrible the bartenders were. There were two of them working, and I would say the place was just minorly crowded. It literally took about 10-15 minutes for the bartender to even ask me what I wanted (A beer and a simple mixed drink). He then proceeded to walk away inbetween each step of service... giving me the beer, putting ice in my glass, pouring my liquor, and then the mixer. Then when he was done, I waited a bit longer for him to allow me to pay. I was also surrounded by a group of others who were just standing around trying to close out their tabs (a process which involves the bartender giving the card to their manager who takes it back into the kitchen to run the card... which I'm sorry but is completely inefficient and takes too long and just looks shady). I left after my second drink because I could have fermented the vodka myself before getting served a third time. It's a shame because the space is well done and the music was, in my opinion, really good.
