Chain restaurants throughout New Jersey offer delictable entrees for seafood lovers.
The Delaware Indians were the first people to live on the land now known as New Jersey. The landscape was the backdrop of many historic moments and occurrences, including the Revolutionary War's Battle of Trenton. Located on the coastline of the Atlantic Ocean, New Jersey not surprisingly boasts several seafood chain restaurants for tourists to enjoy when visiting or just passing through.
Bonefish Grill
Bonefish Grill offers a casual family atmosphere with several menu items that can satisfy your craving for seafood, like grilled Norwegian salmon, Alaskan halibut or Snake River rainbow trout. Other seafood dishes include diablo shrimp fettuccine, Baja fish tacos and the Maryland crab cakes for an appetizer. If you're not in the mood for seafood, you can choose the "American-style" Kobe beef burger, as well as a variety of soups and salads. Martinis, cocktails and wine are also available to enjoy with your meal.
