Terrible! When booking this weekend we were not told we would have to order from a graduation menu. A huge scam. Paid 45 a plate for a small piece of salmon and 50 each for a 12oz steak. That being said the quality of food was very average.

We did not care for the limited, overpriced "Graduation" menu. Roasted brussels sprouts not tender or crispy. Pasta for most expensive (seafood) dish was limp/not fresh. Seemed like dishes were pre-cooked. Disappointing given we have been to Three Chimneys many, many times. Service was very good as usual.

Dinner experience was great. Food was wonderful, not run of the mill, with extra touches that made it surprising and fabulous. And the prices are much lower than the Portsmouth prices that we’re used to. Be back soon!

We went here for Restaurant Week , when you would expect restaurants to put forward their best to get new customers to return. First - the drinks were excellent. My husband had the espresso martini - 2 of them1 and I had the Creamsicle - really good. Appetizers - Salad was very good, as was the fried brussel spouts. If we stopped right here we would have been happy and if you go for drinks and apps everything will be just fine -but Entree - We both ordered the swordfish. It came prefrozen, cooked from frozen, and absolutely hammered. To make up for that, the asparagus was raw. Not tendercrisp, raw. Dessert- I got the limoncello cake. Not too bad, slightly reminicent of childrens aspirin. My husband got the chocolate mousse, which was simply chocolate whipped cream, not mousse at all. We haven't been to this restaurant for several years, but remembered it as excellent, so this was a big let down. Sorry we couldn't give it a better review.
