The controversially-named Sofa King Juicy Burger opened Tuesday in Red Bank to packed crowds.
Sofa King drew cheers and jeers across the nation for its name, which owners say is in reference to a 45-foot sofa that wraps around the building, while others claim it references an unprintable profanity.
The restaurant is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. during the week, and until 11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday, an employee confirmed. Sofa King will serve locally-sourced, grass-fed and hormone-free beef, as well as milkshakes cooled by liquid nitrogen.
