Best Hot Spot Restaurants in Portsmouth

If you value quality over price, this is the spot. Look, a good meal isn't cheap. You pay for good quality, superb preparation, and excellent service, and Pellana has it all. Our server, Teddy, was on point. Phenomenal service, he was knowledgeable, witty, and best of all, returned to the table right when we needed him without hovering. That's a skill most don't have. We started with the bacon wrapped scallops, and hubby had to grab a bosshog x, I was a bit more moderate with a widow jane. Now, the food. THE FOOD!!!! The best steak I have ever had the pleasure of eating. Perfectly seared outside. A perfect Med cook all the way through from end to end.. I had it topped oscar style. Great bernaise sauce, and we shared the garlic mashed potand creamed corn, which has a lovely hint of roasted red pepper, not spicy, but just the little something needed to cut the sweetness of the corn. hubby had the veal chop. Again, the preparation was flawless, I've never seen a veal chop so perfectly cooked all the way through. The drinks were also well poured and unique, I tried the seaside toast, glenfiddich with a smoked cherry wood presentation. He had the smokehouse, with mezcal. Finished off the meal with a creme brule and pistachio martini. Loved every bite and sip. Can't wait to go back.

8 of us met at Row 34 as a half way point between us all. Good choice, excellent service, different takes on traditional seafood recipes. The fried oyster slider were amazing, I could a bunch of those. I had the tuna tartar, that was nicely spiced, along with the turnips. More resto’s should serve the mighty turnip! These were delicious. If I had to go to Burlington again, I would go to Row 34.

We loved all the food and the mocktail but the decor and speed are what really made it nice for us. Starting with Calamari helped set expectations high without disappointment. This was an excellent choice of venue for Valentine’s Day

We had a fantastic dinner. The food was amazing. I had the Bistro steak and my husband had the lamb. Our server was absolutely wonderful. We will be back for sure!

Row 34 somehow manages to serve high quality, refined seafood dishes and also a fantastic kids menu. It's a favorite for our whole family. Food is always delicious, drinks are great, and service is fantastic with friendly and helpful staff. And I agree with my 4 year old when she says the fries are "the greatest I've ever tried!"
