For the first few weeks of operation, restaurant operators said they would be limiting seating and would be closed on Monday “to ensure our staff is trained and ready to be the best we can for Newtown!”
The Blue Point Grill opened its doors in 1999 on Nassau Street in Princeton where it has built a reputation for its extensive selection of impeccably fresh seafood served in a fun, lively family atmosphere.
