Armando's
Located on a corner of Main Street, Armando's has been serving authentic Italian cuisine for 25 years. The extensive antipasti menu sets it apart from many other Italian eateries, as does the variety of salads offered. The restaurant has maintained a balance between classic selections and specialties. All dishes are made to order and so can take longer to arrive at your table than in restaurants where the food is prepped ahead of time. Armando's is open seven days a week for lunch and dinner.

Hiram's Roadstand
Hiram's has been a Fort Lee institution for decades. The menu isn't extensive, consisting of mainly hot dogs, burgers, fries and beer. The restaurant's fan base, though, is extremely loyal. Hiram's famous hot dogs are deep fried and come in a build-your-own style with the condiments available on the counter. There is limited seating inside, but there are picnic tables available outside when the weather is nice. Prices are inexpensive.

It's Greek To Me
It's Greek To Me is part of a Northern Jersey chain established in 1986 by Greek immigrants James and Stacy Papavasiliou. They use their mother's homemade recipes to create their classic dishes. Like most Greek restaurants, you will find mousaka, lamb, gyros, and other favorites on the menu, but what makes It's Greek To Me stand out is the wide selection of vegetarian dishes and sides.
