Burger Time: Don's Set to Open Tomorrow

Restaurant built in honor of Livingston landmark comes to South Street.

Don's Restaurant, originally Don's Drive-In, opened in Livingston in the 1950s and existed there until the mid-1990s, having carved out a reputation big enough that people have been waiting with bated breath for this revival to finally open, so much so they have been talking about on the restaurant's own Facebook page.
