About FINS
With 3 locations: Bradley Beach, Sea Girt, & Point Pleasant, owned and operated by Shawn Ryan (Johnson & Wales University) & Pat Cuozzo (Culinary Institute of America) FINS had been bringing BIG TropiCali flavor to everyone along the beautiful Jersey Shore since 2003 with the opening of our Bradley Beach Location!
