2024 also saw the closing of a lot of popular restaurants at the Jersey Shore, you can get the full list right here.

Sometimes though, there is some good news to write about, and that's what I love doing.

For example, Smokies Craft BBQ just opened their second location in the heart of Toms River, so be sure to go in and grab a pulled pork sandwich, your stomach will thank you.

Speaking of opening second locations, a sushi restaurant that's regularly called one of the best in the state is finally opening a second location near the shore.
