We spent a few hours at this lovely restaurant and had a great time. Everything was delicious and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Great place to chat and catch up with friends and family. The owner brought us some delicious cakes to try on the house. Would definitely recommend!

Honestly, blown away. This place needs to be on people’s radar when it comes to food in Fort Lee. The food is really good, but I think my favorite was the mushroom soup. Its flavor really had me coming back. Another thing is the Truffle Fries; this place has perfected the fry. Its airy and light as a cloud. BUT, it has the exact same texture, flavor and saltiness of the McDonalds french fry, which in my book is perfection. It is the best of both worlds. The service was also phenomenal. The owner, Ms. Choi, was beyond welcoming. Her and her staff’s aura really elevated the experience. Lastly, I think something people might overlook is that this place is not only a sit-down restaurant, but a bakery as well. This is a great combination and something I think not enough restaurants are doing. This is a great restaurant and I will be coming back.

We finally had a chance to experience the food at AURI, and it was amazing!
• The mushroom soups were dreamy and super flavorful, definitely a fave.
• The Rosé Pasta was incredible too, and the garlic breads that came with it were so balanced, truly impressive.
• The pasta salad had a beautiful sweet vinaigrette and complemented the hot food perfectly.
• The coffee was amazing as always, and the almond financier cake was crispy and soft at the same time!
Everything felt complex and light, like a high-end European city cafe. Thank you Michelle and AURI Team, excited to come back!

We heard that a new restaurant opened and were excited to check it out. The food was really yummy, particularly the rose pasta and the mushroom soup! The pasta was a large portion and the flavors weren’t too creamy or overwhelming. The mushroom soup was perfectly seasoned and the presentation was so cute. The grilled chicken sandwich was yummy too, with a nice balsamic drizzle over the sandwich.
We also got a pistachio latte and a sweet potato latte, both of which were fire. The pistachio latte had pistachio bits that added a yummy texture and the sweet potato latte had sweet potato that was hand‑ground into bits and drizzled with honey. That first sip hit different.
As for the cafe/restaurant itself, there were a bunch of outlets in the benches and around the entire interior. The inside was super cute and the holiday decorations made for a cozy vibe. Lastly, parking was fairly straightforward with a paid lot next door. 11/10 recommend!!

Stopped by Auri for dinner after meaning to try it for months, and it definitely lived up to the curiosity. The space is warm, cozy, and very clean, with a tempting pastry display right by the entrance. Service was friendly and attentive, and the staff gave great recommendations.
We ordered Set Menu B (Auri Pasta Salad, Salmon Papillote, Milk Rice Cake), along with the Almond Perilla Pasta. The pasta salad was fresh and light, the almond perilla pasta was nutty, flavorful, and very satisfying, and the salmon papillote was the clear standout — moist, packed with flavor, and beautifully presented. The chef even came out to open it tableside, which was a really nice touch.
Dessert was a milk rice cake that was lightly sweet and perfect after such a filling meal. I think many will be surprised to realize that although the food is amazing and satisfying, it is also healthy! This seems to be the concept/theme when looking at all the menu offerings.
Overall, everything felt thoughtful and balanced, and we left full but not weighed down. Auri is a fantastic addition to Fort Lee and 100% worth checking out. We’ll definitely be back.

I visited this coffee shop yesterday and had a wonderful experience. I ordered the chicken sandwich, it was very fresh and absolutely delicious. I also had a latte, which was excellent, perfectly made. For dessert, I tried the sesame rice cake. It was small, but very fresh and tasty.
The place itself is cozy and beautifully designed, with a really nice atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back soon, especially since I live right next door. Highly recommend!

Cute place and pretty good food! Dessert is good too. I am not sure about the rice cake which was too baby food to me but I am sure some people will love it.
