   Everything was amazing! The oysters, the lobster rolls (both hot and cold), and the monkfish were all solid choices. Recommend this place in a heartbeat!

   We had booked a reservation for dinner and had noted that we would be dining with the stroller as we’ve just flown back home from Europe and our baby was sleeping and this was our time to eat dinner. We have a 10 month old baby that has dined at this restaurant IN his stroller probably once a month… that often. And it had never been an issue with or without a reservation. The fact I noted it in the reservation, showed up, and was met with a nasty attitude is disappointing. And not the service anyone with kids or a sleeping baby in their stroller should have to be welcomed to while dining at an above average seafood restaurant. The host was extremely difficult, inadequate and not experienced in the service industry. We opened the door and she literally gave us the nastiest look and was super rude to us. She told us she had us booked in at a high top and that it was super busy (it was not) and that they didn’t think they could accommodate the reservation with the stroller. Again, it had never been an issue ever before. Then she tried to move us outside (it was raining and high winds that you could feel through their outdoor cover) and we said no. Our reservation note was clear and she seemed so confused and had no solution to the false issue she created. She just kept saying she didn’t know what to do but she didn’t think it was allowed to let us have the stroller next to our table…. It was bizarre and it felt discriminative to dining in with a baby. We ended up having someone else seat us and it was fine that we had a stroller next to us sitting at the table. We won’t be back again given the attitude and how unwelcoming it was. It ruined the whole vibe of our dinner which was the first real meal we had in 32 hours after our long travel back from Europe.

   Food was so good! Obsessed with the corn bread. It came in a skillet with a big thing of honey butter on top! Nice atmosphere. Service was just okay but they put up with our crazy kids.

   Some of the best seafood i’ve ever had. We got the warm lobster rolls, Crab artichoke dip, a crab cake and oysters. This meal was delicious and worth every penny, 10/10 recommend if you’re in the seaport.

   I went there for lunch. I made a reservation, but it was not needed. I ordered the Lobster Roll. It was delicious. It was not served with drawn butter, so I asked for it and that made the sandwich even better. Service was fine, but not spectacular. Again,’it was not that busy. Overall, I would go back especially to see how dinner would be.

   The warm buttered lobster roll was a genuine 10. Best I’ve ever had. I also tried a variety of oysters, all of which were fresh and delightful. You will not be disappointed with anything at R34!

   We’re in Boston for the marathon to cheer on my nephew and the other runners. I googled the best restaurants to eat at and Row 34 Boston popped up. Let me say it didn’t disappoint. Food, place, service and atmosphere were the best.
