Must-visit hot spots for Real Housewives of New Jersey fans

As “Real Housewives of New Jersey” fans wait to see what (and who) is in store for season 15 — why not do a "housewife for a day" tour of Jersey locations?

Over the years, a few good spots have come and gone.

The Manor in West Orange, now closed (Archive: The Manor restaurant)

The Manor in West Orange was the site of the infamous Christening brawl involving Teresa, Joe and Joe, Melissa and family that launched season 3 (“This is a kid’s christening!”)

That high-end venue closed over the summer.

There was also the short-lived “Gorga’s Homemade Pasta & Pizza.”

In peaceful times, a united Gorga family opened a restaurant in East Hanover in May 2017 but it closed less than a year later.

Luckily, there are still plenty of spots with strong RHONJ ties that fans can check out (Taste of Reality kept track of some earl ones) — and in most cases, grab a meal.
