So many restaurants in our area had trouble getting back on their feet after the pandemic, it's time to go out to eat. It's time to eat local. One of these fabulous restaurants will for sure be a spectacular night out for you.

I love when restaurants have the option of outdoor seating. Most of these restaurants had the option even before we "had" to sit out side there for a little bit. It's spring-time at the Jersey Shore and it's a great time to get out after a cold winter in New Jersey.

These top rated restaurants are pricey, what restaurant would you put on this list? Would it be a seafood restaurant? Maybe seafood?
