Let’s all join in and give a new Newark business, Aniki’s Express, a grand Newark WELCOME at their Ribbon Cutting and Official Grand Opening on Saturday, February 25th. Owner Robert Aquero has been waiting for this day to give Newark folks a taste of his wonderful sushi, poke bowls and great service!
