On Thursday night, the former stars of The Real Housewives of New Jersey opened Little Town Social, a "completely different" restaurant than their first place, Little Town N.J., which sat waterfront in Hoboken, N.J., and has since been turned into The Ainsworth.
"The new restaurant, which [opened] Thursday night, is designed more as a gathering place than a sit-down restaurant, which was the format of Little Town NJ on Sinatra Drive," Manzo told NJ Advance Media. "The latest Little Town iteration aims to be more of a social hall, where patrons are encouraged to share their meals with friends and family."

According to Manzo, Little Town Social serves "severely upgraded" bar food, and the change in the restaurant, which was previously the Village Pour House, follows a demand for "upscale, more mature bars and restaurants."
"It's not a beer and shot town anymore," Manzo said. "It's a place where people want to enjoy themselves."
In March, Little Town NJ was closed, and their new place, The Ainsworth, was opened.
"The restaurant's bar will serve a mix of classic and modern cocktails, as well as more the 30 draft beers," the restaurant reps noted. "Little Town's chef, Sarah Sproule, also brings her 'hand-crafted rooftop' sea salt to the table, made in a salt house on her roof in Midtown Manhattan."
Chris and Albie Manzo return to Bravo later in Manzo'd With Children season 2. Also included in the series is Caroline Manzo, Albert Manzo and Lauren Manzo.
