    My wife and dine here often and always have a delicious meal and service is impeccable. A year ago my wife was diagnosed with celiac. It’s an autoimmune disease which is devastating if you continue to consume gluten. Tuscan Sea Grill staff understand celiac and they go above and beyond to prevent diners from cross contamination. We have celiac cards which we present to our server at every restaurant to inform the kitchen staff that a patron has celiac and the seriousness of the disease. Today we visited the restaurant and sat on the outside deck which is above the ocean. Beautiful views and great vibe. Kerin M was our server, she was fabulous, very attentive, gave us plenty of time between courses to sit and enjoy the moment , she understood celiac and communicated the info to the kitchen. We started with a dozen oysters which were fresh from the sea, briny, the whispering angel rose complimented them. For our main course we had roasted skin on salmon with asparagus and roasted sweet potatoes. This dish is always a winner. The 2nd entree was halibut prepared Sicilian style, poached in crushed tomatoes with olive oil, finocchio, Calabrian chile, and cherry tomatoes. Omg this was delicious! Thank you Kerin for a wonderful day!

    Lovely meal at a table on an open window, water side. Food was delicious, service was very good. It's a little pricey compared to other excellent venues in Newburyport, but you can't beat the view!

    Food was good but overpriced. Also, Two basic drinks at the bar $40. Then the limited menu all overpriced for the quality. I enjoyed the restaurant itself. Waitstaff was very nice and the view nice but don’t plan to go back. The food is just not worth the prices.
