Kobeyaki Comes to Jersey City

Fast-casual Japanese chain Kobeyaki has opened a 1,706-square-foot restaurant at 525 Washington St. in Jersey City, NJ.

“Kobeyaki’s expansion reflects the keen consumer interest in fresh, clean eating in a fast-casual dining atmosphere in the metro area and well beyond,” said Nancy Erickson of Colliers International NJ, who with Kelly Bayer and Jennifer Flores represented Kobeyaki. This is the restaurant’s first location outside of New York City. It has other locations in Chelsea, Bryant Park, the Upper East Side and Madison Square Garden.

“Restaurants, in general, have become highly active in recent years,” said Erickson. Lon Rubackin of CBRE represented landlord MEPT Newport Tower, LLC.
