Lee’s Hawaiian Islander
Lee’s Hawaiian Islander
December 21, 2021 – Lyndhurst NJ  The last remaining original Tiki Bar and Polynesian restaurant in New Jersey.  So what has changed since my last visit before the Covid Pandemic? Well, Chan’s Dragon Inn closed, and they have hired some of their cooks.  I definitely saw an improved taste and quality of the food.  Lee’s always had the better cocktails, but Chan’s had the better food. But let’s be honest, you are coming here for the atmosphere, perhaps the food, definitely the old school tiki bar feel, especially if you like the song Tiny Bubbles which seems to be playing on a loop along with some other Hawaiian Standards.  However, you might be disappointed in the cocktails.  Some are good, some are not, and it all depends on who is behind the bar that day.  My suggestion would to have one of their cocktails, snap a photo and if you are going to have another, make it a Tsing Tao beer from China.
