Popular seafood joint is opening another spot at the Jersey Shore

One of the best parts of living so close to the Jersey Shore is the amazing seafood that we get to enjoy after a day of soaking in the sun.

Lobster, clams, oysters, crab, mussels, you name it. We’re fed very well here in the Garden State.

One establishment that has been treating Ortley Beach to top-notch seafood has announced that they are opening a second location, giving even more visitors to the shore a chance to enjoy what they have to offer.
