Beloved NJ restaurants that aren’t here anymore

We are so fortunate here in New Jersey to have such a wide variety of great eateries to choose from. Some great new ones are popping up every year and some good old standards.

Some iconic places only live in our fond memories but are no longer there. Places are parents took us to as kids. Restaurants we may have taken a first date to. Places we used to hit after a night at the club.

The list in Jersey is long and storied. We asked our listeners last week about the great restaurants, diners, ice cream, shops and taverns that aren’t there anymore.
