Price: Expensive•Mediterranean•4.7(799)Modern Mediterranean | A Red Bank BYO Since 1996
A downtown Red Bank classic—reimagined.
Since 1996, The Bistro at Red Bank has been a staple of the local dining scene. What started as a neighborhood BYO with global flair has evolved into something bolder, moodier, and unmistakably Mediterranean.
Our new direction draws from the flavors and energy of the Mediterranean coast—wood-fired pizzas, handmade pastas, char-grilled vegetables, and bold, seasonal ingredients served in a sultry, modern setting. We’ve retired our sushi program and world cuisine roots to focus on what we do best: rustic dishes, timeless flavors, and unforgettable nights.
Whether you’re pre-theatre, post-date, or just here for a long, candlelit dinner with friends—our open kitchen, brick oven, and signature glow welcome you.
Still proudly BYO. Still in the heart of Red Bank. Just turned up a little.
