New Jersey has one of the best dining scenes in the country, so it should come as no surprise that we offer a wide range of cuisines and ways to dine. If you’re craving the most amazing Portuguese food, head to Newark. If you want to enjoy breakfast on a ferris wheel, Wildwood is the place for you. But what if you want to sample several restaurants in a single day? Our malls don’t disappoint; Menlo Park Mall has Potatopia if you’re craving casual eats and The Shops At Riverside offers fine dining options like Morton’s The Steakhouse. Still, nothing quite compares to Mitsuwa Marketplace.

Mitsuwa Marketplace is a giant Japanese market that will transport you straight to Tokyo.
