The Adults-Only Restaurant in New Jersey Where You Can Enjoy Dinner With a Show

Many of the best restaurants across New Jersey are like LEGOs; they're loved by everyone from ages four to 99! And that's great, but sometimes we want a place with a different kind of atmosphere. Happy children enjoying a meal can be a nice sound—but it's not exactly conducive to a romantic night out or a grown-ups' party.

That's where places like Wilson's Restaurant and Live Music come in. Located in the tiny borough of Hi-Nella, this Camden County institution has gained a reputation as a great place for a unique night out. The restaurant bills itself as an upscale adult venue and even comes with a dress code. It's well worth the extra effort to enjoy Wilson's delicious southern specialties and nightly live music and stand-up comedy. So come with us and discover your new favorite place for a grown-up night out!

An Adults-Only Restaurant in New Jersey Perfect for a Night Out

Located in one of New Jersey's smallest municipalities, Wilson's is quickly becoming one of its hottest nightspots. Combining a fine southern restaurant, a bar, and a live music and show venue into one location, it's a great place for an adult night out. Plus, the space is nearly 8,000 square feet—plenty of space for dining, live music, festive drinks, and lots of fun socializing.

You'll definitely want to kick off your meal with some of the restaurant's signature spicy wings. From there, the southern-inspired entrees and sides will transport you directly to Atlanta or New Orleans. Don't miss the fried catfish! The shrimp and grits, not easy to find up north, are incredibly flavorful and indulgent.

Wilson's also serves brunch, which is the perfect time to indulge in one of the best plates of chicken and waffles in the entire state. Then it's time to settle in for the entertainment of the day. Local bands and tribute bands make up the majority of acts, but some stand-up comedy acts can be seen here as well.
