Best Pizza Bars in Metuchen

The ambiance was great it was still decorated for Halloween. We had a reservation arrived 20 minutes early and they sat us anyway. For appetizers we ordered the stuffed artichoke, fried calamari, and a dozen oysters. They all tasted great. It’s a little pricey as the oysters were $35! Be mindful as well that the cocktails at $16 (wife had to and I had 1)each and will add up quick. For dinner we ordered a pizza for our son, my wife got the ribeye steak and I got the lamb chops. Again the steak was $47 and the lamb was $45. My lamb arrived to the table raw. I spoke to the waiter about it and he immediately got it corrected and apologized. One little bump in the road, quickly fixed problem solved. The lamb was delicious and tender, my wife loved her steak. The pizza was very good too. For dessert my wife and I shared the homemade crème brûlée it was also very good. The bill was $300. $350 after tip! These days restaurants are expensive everywhere so to me it really matters that the food and quality of service is excellent which it was. I will totally come back here. I told family members how good it was and they are going to give it a try tonight. Also my waiter Michele was very good. He was very attentive and accommodating. He talked to my son (2 years old) which made him very happy. One other thing I’d like to say. The staff as a WHOLE were very, very nice and kind to my son. He’s 2 and a half everytime someone walked by he’d say “hello” and every single staff member there would say hello back, take the time to talk to him for a little. For a place that was busy I really appreciated that as it was unexpected.

We have been to the Red Bank Bistro a few times in the past couple of months. We brought some good friends who had not been in a while. We all enjoyed our meals and were able to sit and talk after having our meals. Never noisy and staff is all friendly.

Great casual meeting place - enjoyed meeting friends there for delicious sandwiches, pizza and pastas. Everyone was delighted with the food and friendly server.
