Great restaurant at the jersey shore. Recommend getting reservations unless you want to sit watching drew and chefs cook at a bar top for 6 first come…. It was my dads first time here so I said Hey it’s the chefs table where you can sit and watch drew prepare your meal right in front of you. Special seating lol it’s a BYOB as well. Food was amazing especially the pork chop was delicious and one of my favorites. We received piping hot bread rolls and 2 complementary raviolis which were great. Another favorite which I didn’t get this time the braised short ribs. Anyway always great food and don’t forget the voodoo shrimp.. will be back

We had the pleasure of dining at Drew’s Bayshore Bistro in Keyport during their special Valentine’s Day event, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was cozy and romantic — perfect for a holiday dinner — and the service was warm and attentive from start to finish. This is also a BYOB restaurant. We enjoyed a four-course meal, and every single dish was a standout. Some of the highlights included the incredibly flavorful pulled pork mac and cheese, packed with smoky richness and creamy perfection, and the jumbo Cajun shrimp, which were perfectly seasoned and cooked just right. For the entrées, the French onion pork was a total surprise — tender and savory with that classic, comforting French onion flavor. The braised beef was equally impressive, melt-in-your-mouth te

We have dined at Drew's a bunch of times over the years and it never disappoints. It has been some time since we were there last, and overall a great dining experience. The Shrimp and Grits is by go-to and my husband ordered the surf and turf. He said it was the best flavor he has had on a steak in a long time. Plus it was cooked exactly as he likes it. The jalapeno cornbread was good and plentiful. The Banana Foster's bread pudding was a perfect seasonal dessert and we had to take home the homemade "Funny Bone". Too nostalgic not to try but haven't had it yet. The only few things which led to me not givig a full 5 stars is that it was very cold in the restaurant. Granted we are in an artic freeze but it became so uncomfortable we had to leave before we wantrd. One last thing, and maybe i

Another terrific meal from chef Drew and all. Food delicious servers knowledgeable didn't feel pushed to turn table. Had appetizer voodoo shrimp. Oysters. And pork rind. All perfect. Pork chop special for entree was tasty and just as good next day leftovers. Leave room for dessert beignet. And it's BYOB. Prices are extremely fair for quality and quantity.
