From its beginnings in 2009, the Jersey Shore Restaurant Week has offered Jersey residents some of the best options in high-quality food for affordable prices.
And this year, it expands on that offer with a record number of participating restaurants who will offer reduced prices from Nov. 7 to 16. They have 86 options that are serving special meals for either $20.14 or $30.14, including locations like Cibo e Vino in Asbury Park, Irish Rail in Manasquan and Doolan’s Shore Club in Spring Lake Heights.
Along with daily deals, the week is peppered with events, like the ones listed below:

Jim Flynn, chair of the weeklong event, said this week is a great opportunity for people to “go beyond their normal five-mile radius and try new restaurants.”
“It is also a chance to sample meals from restaurants they may have perceived as ‘too expensive.’ For the restaurants, Restaurant Week comes at traditionally slow periods of the year, so it is a great business booster in a slow time period,” he said.
