Chef Frank’s Bistro makes the BEST pork chop that I’ve ever had in my life.
Chef Frank’s is a quaint upscale, white tablecloth restaurant in the low country. We saw a mix of people wearing from a ballgown to khaki shorts. We had a party of six and were well accommodated for with two tables pushed together. The bistro is on the smaller side, but the food packs a punch! The portions are great and every single item that everyone ordered, received high praises. Really can’t go wrong with anything on the menu but I’d personally recommend the egg rolls, pork chop, and coconut cake!

Dinner at Chef Frank’s was exceptional — a refined dining experience right in the heart of Port Royal. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared and beautifully presented. We started with the steak and cheese egg rolls, which were crisp and flavorful, followed by perfectly cooked entrées — braised short ribs over creamy grits and crab cakes with collards and red rice that captured Lowcountry comfort with an elevated twist.

The staff was attentive, the pacing perfect, and the wine pairing brought it all together. You can tell Chef Frank takes pride in both presentation and taste — each plate felt balanced and heartfelt.

This is the kind of restaurant that makes Port Royal shine — local, elegant, and full of flavor. Perfect for date night or a relaxed evening of fine dining close to home.

What a little unassuming gem located in Port Royal Beaufort. There is plenty of free parking on site and on the road. There is not a lot of seating but probably enough tables for 25 people or so. The food was delicious. Creative, complimentary flavors and the presentation was just lovely. I ordered the swordfish which was PERFECT and the coconut cake which was super light and probably one of the best I’ve ever eaten. The salmon and the halibut were other much ordered entrees. My husband had a raspberry crème brûlée which he just raved over. The chef came out to the table at the end of the evening to check in. Super friendly and so gracious. Will definitely eat here again.

Food was delicious and Chef Frank came out spend a few minutes w my family after our meal.
Highlights tonight were the clam chowder, Beet salad w homemade Tuscan dressing, & the Chocolate mousse. All amazing. Service was top notch as well.

Looking forward to our next visit!

Dined solo at Chef Frank’s Bistro after a recommendation from a trusted foodie friend. The dining room is welcoming and intimate with lots of natural light. The wine list was well curated, and I enjoyed the Wente Morning Fog. My entree was the Filet Mignon au Poive (perfectly cooked as ordered), with sides of puréed potatoes and rainbow carrots. The dessert options were extensive and I opted for the Blood Orange Creme Brûlée – heavenly! The servers were knowledgeable and very friendly- just the right amount of attention. I look forward to returning very soon.

First time to have dinner at Chef Frank’s Bistro. What an excellent surprise as it far exceeded our already high expectations. We heard it was good, but it was exceptional. While I’m sure the other dishes were good, the pork chop was magnificent. We will definitely be back. We also got to meet Frank as he came out to see if we enjoyed. Outstanding!!

Our party of 3 enjoyed a delicious dinner and dessert with a bottle of red wine at Chef Frank’s Bistro. My husband and son reported their meal of filet mignon with horseradish mashed potatoes and asparagus was excellent. My plate of seared tuna, jasmine rice and vegetable medley was perfectly prepared. High praise for the key lime pie and cheesecake with chocolate mousse desserts, all of which assured our return for a future visit.

Delicious food; definitely much better than you can expect in a cafe/bistro. My wife and I had the swordfish and the creme brulee. Service is excellent. At the end of our meal, the Chef came to our table to chat with us. If we were in France this restaurant would definitely deserve a Michelin star. Bottom line: much better than all restaurants in Beaufort, at a very reasonable price.

Love this place! Simple as that! I eat out a lot, and I won’t review any business unless it’s exceptionally good (or exceptionally not so good). I would almost prefer to keep Chef Frank’s a secret, but it really was that great! I can’t wait to go back! Special thanks to our server Sandy for the birthday candle on my coconut cake. You are a superstar!

We were WOWed by our first dining experience at Chef Frank’s Bistro last night! Our hostess was so charming and thoroughly engaging, whetting our appetite by her descriptions of the treat we were in for. She did not oversell it! The wait staff was engaging and knowledgeable. Their hospitality was so welcoming and relaxed. BUT the food?!?! Oh my goodness, the BEST I have had in several years at a Beaufort restaurant. Our entree of Fresh Catch Sheepshead with vegetable risotto was perfectly prepared. One of our table mates had the Berkshire Prime Porkchop and raved. We all cleaned our plates but still ordered from the extensive dessert menu to top off an outstanding meal. We will return often. Thank you so much Chef Frank and staff for the most delicious, delightful dining experience we have had in a long while.
