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.

My wife and I and another couple who are dear friends had dinner before attending a show at the Count Basie Theater. We only had a little over an hour to eat and we enjoyed every minute. Our food was delicious, Destiny was a terrific server and the ambiance was perfect. We will certainly return to Bistro when back in Redbank.

Food & ambiance was good. Server was nice and attentive, but we felt rushed out the door when we asked to see the dessert menus for our table of 4. Was told she’d bring the dessert menus, but we need the table, so it’ll have to be quick. Granted it was a Saturday night, but there’s a better way to say it to your customers. As a result, we decided against dessert, and likely won’t return as a result.

Making a reservation and standing in line at the restaurant that has no where to stand was an unfortunately not a great experience. The menu/specials were minimal.

Truly an amazing Dinner. The homemade Mozzarella Stick Tower Appetizer accompanied with Spicy Marinara was Incredible. Our Rigatoni & Gnocchi Entrees were delicious!! Highly Recommend This Restaurant!! Service Was Spot On & They Had Us Out In Under 60 Minutes So That We Could Catch Our Show!
