The liquor license for the Riverwatch restaurant in Brick has been released to its owner by the state after a tax debt was settled, state officials said.
The restaurant lost the license May 28 after the state Department of the Treasury seized it due to a judgment of $41,654.33 in taxes to the state, said Christopher J. Santarelli, treasury department spokesman.
By Monday, however, the license was restored.
“This judgment has since been paid, and the license has been released,” Santarelli said.

Riverwatch is owned by American Restaurant Management LLC. A call to the company Monday was not answered and a voicemail box was full and could not accept messages.
There was no word on when or if the restaurant would be reopening.
