Inaugural Fort Lee Restaurant Week Begins Thursday

FORT LEE, N.J. — More than two dozen borough restaurants will offer their best dishes on special menus as part of the inaugural Fort Lee Restaurant Week beginning Thursday.

The four-day long event is designed to showcase some of the best food the borough has to offer.

JD's Steak Pit, NY Wing Factory, Baggios, and In Napoli are just some of the restaurants offering some local and international cuisine at reduced prices, between $15 and $30, during the four-day long event.

Renowned chef and restaurateur David Burke will visit select restaurants to participate in book signings, food tastings, and give out bottles of his B1 steak sauce.

Located at the foot of the George Washington Bridge, many Fort Lee restaurants offer picturesque views of the Hudson River and downtown Manhattan.

"We are proud to sponsor our first-ever Restaurant Week and are excited for the public to celebrate and experience all that this great borough has to offer,” said Fort Lee Business District Executive Director Stuart Koperweis.
