   Fresh oysters were great. Only thing was there is not a full bar so they only have beer, wine and a few select cocktails.

   Recommended by a customer. Made a reservation a week in advance as they book up fast and for good reason! Drinks were great and strong at a typical price. Highly recommend the appetizers and crude and of course the oysters. We decided to eat “tapa style” and share a LOT of different items rather than get a main course and of course the oysters! Servers and staff very friendly and we followed their recommendations to a tee. Highly recommend!

   I had a simple lunch for one, at the bar. The service was not so great … everyone behind the bar seemed to be distracted … but it really wasn’t a big deal. After the super fresh and delicious Duxbury oysters arrived, plus the warm buttered lobster roll, I was in heaven. Add a nice Bloody Mary, and this was as good as it gets! So good.

    Food was great, fresh and well prepared. Our server appeared miserable. Never once cracked a smile. I was entertaining a friend from out of town for a long weekend. We went out for lunch and dinner very day for several days. Everywhere we went over the past few days we noticed friendly service until we got to Row 34. She was just miserable and unpleasant and it dampened our experience.

    If lobster rolls are your thing, this is the place. Really limited wine selection but we found a great - if unusual- red from Tenerife. Crab cakes are awesome. Tuna is spectacular. Skip the banoffe pie. Amazing date night.

    For my birthday we planned our first trip to Boston, I read a TON of articles and Row 34 was written about as one of the top restaurants for a lobster roll. Well they sure didn’t disappoint! The lobster was divine! We enjoyed a bunch of oysters and calamari as well. Our server, Thomas, was amazing! He described each type of oyster and was super knowledgeable. We will be back!

    Having the Seafood tower was the best experience while the service was subpar. Seafood tower had interesting ceviches. Bucatini was too heavy and had too much garlic. It lacked squid ink flavor. I’ve had better clam chowder at museums in the area - this one had too much potatoes and not enough clams. Generally the food was salty.

    I may have had the wrong impression of what to expect. I thought Row 34 was an upscale dining experience but for us it was a tourist trap restaurant. Poor service, food was ok but not worth the cost.

    Shellfish tower: oysters were too salty. Shrimps we’re good flavor but a bit hard (overcooked?). Ceviche tacos were good. The other ceviche (on a shell) had pineapple pieces that didn’t quite worked… the plantain and cassava chips weren’t as crispy as expected… white wine list was ok. Service was average. It was pretty busy but not providing ice bucket for white wine or cleaning the table after all the water dripping from the tower was kind of … Sadly we didn’t had the interest to order entrees or dessert after the “raw bar experience”

    The oysters were superb, the caviar toast was delicious, lettuce cups were very yummy, and the cornbread was awesome. The only thing I would not order again was the green salad, which was just kind of boring. Just like the salad I make at home. But all the food was extremely fresh and tasty. I would definitely go back for a special occasions.

    First time here in quite a while. Had a great waitress. Oysters were good but the food menu selection was limited. Biggest downer was the huge increase in prices. This has been our experience here and elsewhere. It makes us more reluctant to go out.

    Food was mediocre and service was fair at best! Women’s bathroom was disgusting. This was an anniversary dinner and was a big disappointment. Didn’t bother to stay for dessert. Took our business elsewhere. Row 34 pales in comparison to Island Creek Oyster!

    The service was great. Our server was outstanding: very knowledgeable, attentive and gave helpful descriptions without being overbearing. We started with the tuna crudo at the waiter’s recommendation and we all loved it: beautiful combination of flavors and textures. My husband and I both had the lobster rolls (cream-based), which were overflowing with lobster. My daughter loved her very flavorful Grilled Salmon on a bed of roasted poblano, black bean and corn purée. My son couldn’t stop talking about how much he enjoyed his first ever meal of Bouillabaisse. “The lightness of the broth supported the rest of the seafood, and there was a lot of it.” I also want to mention that even though there were no empty tables, service was excellent and there was no noise problem at all. We could easily hear our conversation, which is definitely not always the case. 5 stars!

    Service and food was great. Construction noise was pretty bothersome. Great to sit outside in theory but hard to hear each other with that level of noise. Didn’t expect it - certainly not on the weekends

    Even with the construction outside, the inside is a great experience. Super friendly servers, great cocktails and beer selection. Most of the specialty cocktails need a thesaurus but all were tasty - the rye, the vodka.. Lobster roll and oyster po-boy were delicious. And get the cornbread!! Yum
