We’re Row 34. If we could eat oysters and drink beer for every meal period, we probably would. Professionals Only.

Row 34 serves up a seafood-focused menu in an industrial-inspired setting. Chef/Owner Jeremy Sewall's menu offers fish entrees and an extensive oyster selection, along with craft beers and an eclectic wine list. Classic comfort food side dishes round out the menu.

    Our server, Michael, was excellent. Gave us good advice on the menu selections and was attentive without being intrusive. The food was excellent and the oysters fresh and delicious. The three oyster eaters at our table proclaimed them to be the BEST.

    My husband and I were celebrating my son’s birthday and his very recent engagement. We had reserved a hightop but there were tables outside and it was a lovely day ! So outside we sat. The service from both our server, host and everyone else was fantastic. The food, two of us had great meals the other two just okay ( slightly overcooked shrimp). The restaurant is in a great area of Portsmouth and we found parking in a few minutes. We would go again and hopefully all enjoy a fantastic meal . Thank you.

    My sister and I came to Row 34 for the first time and while sitting there eating the freshest, tastiest food I said out loud- “why has it taken me so long to come here?” The food, the ambience and our server- Monica were all fantastic! We didn’t take any pictures, other than with our hearts. I would suggest the shrimp cocktail, the tuna crudo, the banana dessert thing. Can’t wait til I go back, this time with my husband who I know will love Row 34 just as we did!

    Loved the atmosphere and the food was delicious. We had the salmon pate, chowder, melon salad, calamari, and oysters and it was all fantastic! Would highly recommend and would definitely go back next time we visit Portsmouth.

    Very warm reception. We went early so it was quiet. Services was just right and very kind of sit staff. Then the food was a sheer delight. Just delicious.

    Our second time and not as impressed. Very small salad portions for the money but the whole crispy fish was pretty good. Fresh oysters were great. Service was very spotty and it took a long time between courses.

    This was my second time at Row 34 Portsmouth, and it didn't disappoint. The oysters, mussels, and salads were delicious, and the wine was lovely. Gorgeous atmosphere, great company, and a memorable night.

    First our service was amazing. I have to say the raw oysters were tiny. The grilled oysters were cooked but not grilled (definitely not Nrw Orleans style) the mains were good. We especially liked the board with assorted smoked fishes and dip

    We had a gret time. The food (oysters and lobster rolls) was amazing but our server - Brie - really made the night! We learned it was her first night at Row 34 and it seemed like she worked her for years. She knew the menu, timing was seamless and she was a pleasure to speak with. Brie made our night truly memorable.
