Cousins Maine Lobster opened its first New Jersey brick-and-mortar store on the boardwalk in Asbury Park just in time for Memorial Day weekend.
Guests of the lobster restaurant, which is known for its food trucks, were greeted by founders and cousins Jimmy and Sabin, investor Barbara Corcoran, and franchise owners Victoria and Savas Alkoc.
"Saturday we were crazy. Sunday was unbelievable. But the response from the locals has been tremendous. The feedback has been great, so we look forward to a tremendous summer," said Savas Alkoc.
