Fornos of Spain
This large, bustling restaurant serving Spanish cuisine and wines in an elegant, old-world setting gets our vote for the single best restaurant in New Jersey. The award-winning menu is prepared with the freshest seafood of Spain, and its extensive wine cellars -- with more than 450 aged and vintage wines – are considered to hold the rarest collections of Spanish wines in the United States. Whether you eat in the wood-walled dining room or the outdoor garden, guests enjoy complimentary olives, warm bread and balsamic-dressed salad to start. The paella Valenciana, an array of shellfish, chicken, and sausage served over saffron-infused rice, is a must. Consider pairing it with the house-made sangria.
Pro tip: On crowded nights, go through the back and grab a seat at the bar for faster service.
