    We love love love Row 34. We went to the restaurant in May of '24 for my wife's birthday. Had such a great experience, that we decided to return this year (June 21, 2025) for our 17th anniversary, traveling over an hour from central MA. Everything is great about this location. The food is amazing. The environment and the ambience is spot on. Margie, our server, was chill, informative and helpful. The costs are extremely reasonable given all they do so well. We will absolutely be back in '26 and beyond. Well done Row 34 !!! Thanks for helping us celebrate such a special day in style. Cheers, Justin C.

    Great food and great service. Old adage “you get what you pay for”. While this restaurant may be considered pricey to many, in a world where too many places are just tailing your money, Toscana continues to impress with the quality of food preparation, flavor and service.
