My friends and I had an excellent experience. The oysters, the lobster rolls, the fish tacos, salmon, and desserts were all outstanding. The drinks were incredible, and the service from Erin was exceptional. Row 34 will definitely be a stop as we pass through Portsmouth…

The food was amazing (and it is consistently). The service was fantastic, including the hostess. And the vibe was good (not loud or noisy, music was good, not too snooty). Definitely a favorite of ours. I recommend the filet and the brussels.

Great experience start to finish. We were welcomed by staff and I asked for a booth. Great menu - so many good choices it made it hard to decide! Delicious haddock picatta and fish fry. Served hot and follow up was quick. Most food is gluten free and they accommodate dietary requests. Service was attentive. We will be back again soon.

We practically had the place to ourselves 5-6:30 on a Thursday— farmers market day in Exeter. Cannot understand why. It is a high end place, to be sure, but the food was delicious, the ambiance lovely, and the service top notch. Unique offerings for a vegetarian, and a US-focused wine list. Wish i lived closer to come more often.

“White tablecloth” dining with a casual, friendly feel. The bartender iced our glasses for a wonderful cold beer. The lobster was cooked to order and delicious. The staff were very attentive and friendly.

Seaglass is always wonderful! The food is always delicious and the view is spectacular! They brought back the lunch box duo which I ordered and it did not disappoint! I had the braised short rib grill cheese and it was so delicious. I highly recommend Seaglass for both lunch and dinner. The food is consistently good as is the service!

We had a really nice dinner. The food and drinks were wonderful. We both had Butternut Squash Ravoli , and it was the best we have ever had! We asked our waitress to be sure to let the chef know….it was that good! Also, the hostess and wait staff couldn’t have been nicer. I highly recommend Marker 34 to everyone.
