Beloved New Jersey Sushi Restaurant Xina Expands To Bradley Beach For Its Second Location
Xina, one of the best sushi restaurants in New Jersey, is opening a second location at the Jersey Shore.
The new location will be in Bradley Beach at 415 Main Street, where a 7-Eleven used to be.
The restaurant is expected to open in early 2025, although there’s no exact date yet.
Since it opened in Toms River in 2012, it’s been loved by locals and earned the 27th spot on NJ.com’s list of the best sushi places in New Jersey.
With the new Bradley Beach location, even more people will be able to enjoy the incredible food that has made Xina so popular.
Like the Toms River restaurant, the Bradley Beach location will be BYOB, meaning customers can bring their own drinks to enjoy with their meals.
Rick Lee, the owner of Xina, said the restaurant will offer customer favorites from the original menu as well as new dishes.
With a brand-new space, they’re excited to try out fresh ideas and bring more creativity to their menu.
Xina’s menu is full of delicious options, including sushi, seafood, and a mix of Chinese, Japanese, and Thai dishes.
Some of the most-loved dishes include steamed Peking duck buns, bulgogi kimchi fried rice, red curry mussels, and miso salmon with black coconut sticky rice.
There are many choices for sushi fans, such as nigiri, sashimi, and unique rolls like the everything bagel roll, buffalo salmon roll, and coconut shrimp roll.
But it’s the specials at Xina where things get exciting.
For example, sushi latkes are crispy potato patties topped with salmon, wasabi cream cheese, and salmon roe.
Another favorite is the buffalo salmon roll, a fried sushi roll filled with spicy salmon and avocado, then topped with buffalo sauce, blue cheese, and celery.
Xina also serves bao buns with fillings like mortadella, burrata, pesto, honey, and pistachio.
Rick Lee and his family have run Xina since it opened.
They’ve worked hard to create a restaurant that serves great food and makes people feel welcome.
After looking at locations in towns like Long Beach Island, Point Pleasant Beach, and Asbury Park, they decided Bradley Beach was the best fit.
The town is becoming a foodie destination with a fun, relaxed vibe, so it’s one of the most fitting places for Xina’s new restaurant.
The new location will have a fresh, modern design that maintains Xina’s style while introducing new ideas.
This is a chance for the team to try things they couldn’t do in Toms River.
As the opening date gets closer, people are already looking forward to trying Xina in Bradley Beach.
Fans of the Toms River location will be able to enjoy their favorite dishes, while new customers will get to experience Xina’s incredible food for the first time.
