(Paramus, NJ: May 19, 2008) – Bonefish Grill has a great fish story to tell. The recently-opened Paramus, NJ location of the polished casual seafood restaurant is appealing to those who crave high quality seafood in a comfortable, lively atmosphere at a good value.
“We are very excited about opening Bonefish Grill here in Paramus,” said Arun Joshi, managing partner of the Paramus Bonefish Grill. “We are committed to providing our guests an enjoyable dining experience that excels in offering consistently good food within a comfortable and stylish setting, and impeccable service – all at an affordable price.”
Founded in St. Petersburg, Florida (January 2000) by veteran restaurateurs Tim Curci and Chris Parker, their creation of the Bonefish Grill dining experience originated upon the premise of simplicity and consistency, and a commitment to excellence at every level within the restaurant – food, service, décor and value.
Bonefish Grill specializes in market fresh fish grilled over an oak-burning grill, which gives the fish a savory, even cook. A tantalizing array of sauces and original toppings, ranging from fresh and light to rich and flavorful, are offered to enhance the flavor of the fish.
Recognized as the “Fresh Fish Experts,” the restaurant offers a variety of eight species from which to choose on any given day. The fish is flown in fresh, inspected for quality and hand-cut daily.
“The key component to our culture is in how the fish is handled,” said Curci. “Our passion for its provenance and preparation is behind our commitment to providing our guests with seafood that is as fresh as fresh can be. We like to say that we take the mystery out of fish – we tell our guests where it came from, how best to eat it, and how to have fun with sauces.”
Bonefish Grill is known for its fresh ingredients creatively prepared using flavorful, modern culinary ingredients such as hearts of palm, pine nuts, artichokes, goat cheese and sun dried tomatoes, to name a few. There’s something for everyone on the menu, which features a selection of fine hand-cut steaks and pork tenderloin, as well as pasta and chicken dishes, in addition to the fresh fish offerings. All entrées are accompanied by hot crusty bread and a choice of rice, seasonal vegetables, pasta or potato selection. Lauded for its generous portions, the restaurant also features an assortment of daily specials and tasty appetizers including Mussels Josephine, Cajun Chicken Egg Roll and the house “specialty” Bang Bang Shrimp.
The restaurant features a spacious dining room with an open kitchen, and a large energetic bar area, which includes three community tables. The interior’s sleek design features beautiful golden hardwood and hand-blown glass amber lamps. An attractive array of three-dimensional art, ranging from large-scale metal sculptures of mangroves and fishing scenes to a large mystical fish rubbing enhance the ambience felt throughout the restaurant.
As guests settle into their comfortable surroundings, they are treated to a level of hospitality that incorporates friendliness and attentiveness. Dressed in chef whites, the servers’ attention to detail is a direct result of a customized training program that is totally oriented to customer satisfaction.
