Yelp names the overall #1 restaurant in New Jersey
This is New Jersey, there’s no way anyone can name one restaurant to be the absolute best in the whole state.
New Jerseyans have their favorites for all different cuisines but there are so many places to choose from, you really can’t pick one to put at the top of your list. That’s what Yelp is for.
The website has a list of the best restaurants in New Jersey solely based on reviews since that’s what they do.
