The best restaurants in Weehawken sit in two places: along Harbor Boulevard and Port Imperial on the Hudson River, where dining rooms look straight across at Midtown Manhattan, and up the cliffs on Park Avenue and Boulevard East, where the township’s neighborhood spots feed locals every night. Our team checked every restaurant below against its own website or official listing in late October 2026, so you can book with confidence.
Weehawken is a small town with an outsized dining scene, and the mix is part of the fun. You can start with a steak dinner at Lincoln Harbor one night and grab rotisserie chicken on Park Avenue the next. Here are eight restaurants in Weehawken worth your table.
