I don’t know when lamb chops became a precious metal, but that’s prob what took your mixed grill over the top price wise. Here in KC an order of 2 2-bone chops runs $44 and comes with nothing.
I’m sorry but this is just a ripoff for $46. But they play to the area’s clientele so it’s really not a surprise. My favorite mixed grill in the area by far is at the Greek Spot in Red Bank across from the wawa. You get a mountain of meat plus two sides for under $40. Can’t beat it.
I’ll just leave this here on the lamb chop conversation:
Went to Albariño a few weeks ago (Father’s Day weekend) before watching a show at Count Basie. It’s kind of a last minute thing so did not do any research or planning; didn’t realize there’s a thread here on HO. Anyway we seated at the high top table near the bar around 4:30pm to take advantage of the happy hour menu. Happy Hour price is now $7 for drinks and selected tapas (not much to choose from really ). We had meatballs, ceviche, paella, potato bravas and a burger. I thought the food was great and I really liked the paella.
I’m on Albarino’s mailing list and just got this note today:
Join us to welcome the newly installed outpost of Teresa’s Pizzeria & Wine Bar at Albariño! For over 30 years, Teresa’s Pizzeria & Wine Bar has offered artisanal pizzas and pastas to the Princeton community. Due to popular demand, we will open a second location at Albariño, in Shrewsbury starting Wednesday April 12th.
They’re having a very reasonably priced (imo) Spanish/Italian wine tasting as a kickoff ($22pp).
Did it explain if they are expanding or converting existing space over to the pizza concept?
It sounds to me like an expansion within the restaurant, even though I thought it was odd.
seemed like they converted existing space. When you walk in, the kitchen is right in front and it looks like seating is on the left.
Looks like sadly they are closing up shop on shrewsbury. Driving by it always seems to be crowded. I’d guess the failed pizza spot and related expansion did them in here? A shame bc it was nice to have a different option locally and now I think the only restaurant in shrewsbury proper will be djeet.
They do hold a liquor license i beleive.
You’re right, this sucks. From their facebook,
“Albariño’s last service will be this Sunday, November 9. It has been an absolute pleasure serving you and being part of this wonderful community.
While this chapter comes to a close, it’s not goodbye, it’s hasta luego. We invite you to visit our other locations in Princeton and continue to shop small this holiday season to support local businesses that make our communities thrive.
Thank you for all your support. We look forward to seeing you again.”
Will prob be the next location of tommys

Came on to post the same info.
For those who may be interested, the email ended with “Thank you for all your support. We look forward to seeing you again soon. Inquiries may be directed to info@terramomo.com”
