Nicely curated seafood restaurant with a huge bar. They offer very good greatly made sushi and a wide variety of seafood. The sushi was very good. The tune nicoise was cooked perfectly and serviced with a nice dressing. The only negative is that it can be very loud and difficult to have a conversation. The service was very good.

The view here is truly amazing, we were seated right by a huge window looking over the water and that made the dinner so good! The food was pretty good, but it did take a while to come out (the drinks did not haha!). To be able to get a table for two, we came here at 5pm, otherwise it's such a long wait because they don't take reservations. The staff cares a lot- for dessert we ordered the Tall Cake, which wasn't really to my taste and also it was HUGE, and they came out to see if anything was wrong it it

This food was delicious. Crab cake is a must get appetizer with a combination of flavors that will leave you wanting more. You also cannot go wrong with any combination of sushi options. The fish and chips are cooked to perfection, but the blackened shrimp tacos were an explosion to my taste buds in every bite. But that’s not all, do you like a nice cocktail? The spicy pineapple margarita will be sure to tickle your fancy. For dessert? The ice cream of special is perfect. This one pictured shows Oreos with chocolate chunks and a caramel martini with shavings of ice that only make the flavor pop. Would definitely recommend

Nice overall experience. The atmosphere is lovely, especially with the sea view—it adds a relaxing touch to the meal. The food was good, though not mind-blowing. It was quite busy when we visited, which delayed our order a bit, but the staff handled it well (and they’re very lovely). Worth a visit if you’re in the area and want a coastal dining vibe.

Tucked in the beautiful historic district, you can eat phenomenal sea food looking at the harbor. The seared tune was absolutely perfect, fresh delicious tuna, sashimi quality, on wasabi mashed potatoes and a tomari sauce and seared broccoli, really perfect ... The raw oysters were phenomenal, I would have gotten more of they were less expensive, $4 each, my husband said that the gluten free New England clam chowder was the best he's ever had, I took a taste and it was wonderful, and then he got the Portuguese fish stew which was "great" really delicious ... I can't wait to return here!! BTW our waitress is amazing, so knowledgeable, Tammy from Nashua, she was extremely helpful in our ordering, so friendly! The atmosphere is .. well, a bit silly, but I can forgive it because the water view and food is so amazing ..

Pricey but beautiful location and excellent food and service! Definitely worth a stop. Parking is a pain but if you park further away with street parking or even find a free spot, everything is walkable in Portsmouth, and this is worth an endcap to the night. Food comes in good sizeable portions, presented well, and delicious. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. And the view if you get a window seat is great of the open bay.

Nice waterfront location, with Maine just across. The lobster rolls were delicious; I liked the traditional (cold) one better that the hotel one. Our waitress Abbie was amazing, super attentive and helpful. A great lunch break on our way north.
