- PPatrickTampa / Central Florida West •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoRow 34 always delivers!! We had an amazing dinner and feasted on oysters, tuna tar-tar, calamari, dinner rolls, corn bread, chowda, and lobster rolls. The warm lobster roll is my absolute favorite at Row 34. I had some colleagues in town for some business meetings and Row 34 was my 1st thought for an amazing dinner. The ambiance is perfect for dinner out, great music in the background and just a great vibe. Don’t forget to get a chocolate chip cookie or the butterscotch pudding!!More infoRow 34 - PortsmouthPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Portsmouth•4.6

- JJeannevipGreater Boston •21 reviews5.0Dined 7 days agoIf there was a word better than I outstanding, I would use it here! Dinner last night was beyond delicious. I ordered the new chicken dish which was incredibly moist and flavorful. My husband ordered the sirloin with pomme frites.  Again, the steak was fork tender and the fries yummy. We closed the night off with a crème brûlée and glad we did! This restaurant never disappoints!More infoAnneke JansPrice: Very Expensive• Contemporary American• Kittery•4.8
- DDonaldvipGreater Boston •137 reviews5.0Dined on Nov 13, 2024My wife and I went to celebrate our post anniversary glow in Portsmouth, and we ate at the Puddle Dock for the first time. We will be back! The food was outstanding (with special help in being guided to great options by our server). The service was outstanding, friendly, and helpful in every possible way. My wife was even complimented on her fleece by one of the staff. The menu choices are quite adventuresome for New Hampshire ... and they were all carried off very well. I would love to try the rest of the menu on other occasions. The wine list is decent for all but those who are used to only the best wines. Although the restaurant is fairly new (just open two or three years), the inside ambiance gives you a sense of old New England of the sort that is good to enjoy ... rather than off putting. I think it's worth a trip from the Boston area to eat at the Puddle Dock. Don't miss it ... or the bread pudding!More infoThe Puddle DockPrice: Expensive• American• Portsmouth•4.8
