What new restaurant in New Jersey is one of the Best in America?

A new restaurant called Lita in Aberdeen Township. It's an Iberian-inspired restaurant, centered around a live-fire hearth.

At Lita, the menu is prepared in the open fire heart oven that sits int he middle of the dining room.

Their specialties from thelovelylita.com:

Guests will start with ‘Essenciales’, a highly shareable collection of Spanish and Portuguese light bites and tapas, before diving into a bevy of charred vegetables, rich stews, fresh seafood and iconic meat dishes including piri piri chicken and bitoque. Lita’s signature paellas are classically prepared in the hearth oven for the very best crispy crunchy socarrat.

From the appetizers to the main dish, it looks delicious. How about their signature dessert, mahogany brown basque cake with hot sherry cream.
