San Remo Restaurant Marks 18 Years of Serving the Best Italian Food in Red Bank

Red Bank, New Jersey—San Remo Italian restaurant recently celebrated its 18th anniversary.San Remo opened on Newman Springs Road in Red Bank in 1998, six years after owner Giovanni Bougdour moved from Italy to the United States. Bougdour, who trained in French and Italian kitchens before emigrating, specializes in creative Mediterranean cuisine that has earned praise from The New York Times and the Zagat Survey as well from a wide variety of local media.

The restaurant moved to its current location in Red Bank in 2014 after an extensive renovation that replaced the building’s gray exterior with a more inviting yellow finish, brightened the dimly-lit dining room and turned the upstairs apartment into an expansive party space. “My goal is to make dining at San Remo feel like eating at a restaurant in Rome or Venice,” said Bougdour. “Everything from the menu to the décor is designed with that in mind.”

Giovanni's San Remo Restaurant is widely regarded as one of the best restaurants in Red Bank. It has received critical acclaim for its amazing food and genuine hospitality from the industry’s top public reporters including The New York Times, the Asbury Park Press, the Two River Times, the Zagat Survey and many more. San Remo serves hearty portions of classic Italian and Mediterranean cuisine. Menus feature a wide range of options, from hand-cranked pastas, savory steaks and exotic wild game to elegant desserts.

The restaurant is an elegant setting for private parties or a BYOB dining experience. It has a large dining area, an outdoor patio and plenty of parking. San Remo is the perfect place to treat yourself with a memorable meal before or after a theater show. The restaurant is a five-minute walk from the historic Count Basie Theater and right across the street from the Red Bank train station.
