It’s not cheap, but everything was delicious. From oysters to lobster rolls to beats salad, they have it all. The lobster rolls were nicely buttered and they didn’t skimp on the protein which I appreciated. The chips were homemade and perfectly crisp and thin. The fried oysters were so savory and left me wanting more. I think that this spot is good for a nice event like an anniversary.

Row 34 in Boston has quickly risen to the top of my list for must-visit dining spots, especially when it comes to seafood. Located in the vibrant Seaport District, this place has nailed the perfect combination of ambiance, service, and culinary excellence. Right off the bat, the quality and variety of oysters on offer are nothing short of impressive. Each type is fresh, expertly shucked, and served with a minimalist touch that enhances their natural flavors. Moving on to the main courses, the Lobster Roll at Row 34 has set a new standard for me. It’s packed with fresh, succulent lobster meat, lightly dressed, letting the quality of the seafood shine through. Additionally, the Tuna Tartare was another highlight, with its fresh, zesty flavors perfectly balancing the richness of the tuna. The service here matches the high quality of the food—attentive, swift, and always with a smile. It’s clear that the staff are as passionate about seafood as the chefs who prepare it. Price-wise, Row 34 offers great value considering the high quality of the dishes served. Everything from the plating to the portion sizes shows a keen attention to detail and a commitment to providing a top-tier dining experience. Based on a recommendation from a friend who used to live in Boston, my expectations were high, but Row 34 has exceeded them in every way. It’s not just the best place I’ve dined at in Boston; it’s possibly among the best Italian experiences I’ve had worldwide. If you’re in the area, I highly recommend making a reservation, as this popular spot can get quite busy. Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Row 34 is an unforgettable culinary journey that’s well worth the visit.

Came here on a Friday night around 6:30pm. There was available seating at the bar and tables but enough of a crowd to have a lively atmosphere. I opted to sit at the bar and had 2 waitresses helping me, one more attentive than the other, although it had also gotten busier by the time the second one stepped in. I ordered the tuna crudo which was fantastic. Then I had the fish and chips, which was pretty mediocre. The waitress asked me about any food allergies when ordering and my water glass was kept full. The restaurant had dim lighting and it’s easy to hear a conversation. Would be a nice place for a date or to catch up with friends. I’ll also mention they had 4 nonalcoholic beer options. I didn’t order oysters but I get the feeling it’s what they’re known for and they seem to have a good selection and presentation. Tuna crudo $21 Fish and chips $29 Run wild NA IPA $9 Service charge (could be removed if requested) $3.50

One of the best Clam Chowders I’ve ever had! This place is great for a nice dinner in the city. Really enjoyed everything, and our waiter Jhon was amazing. Both the warm butter and the cold lobster roll are delicious. The Oysters are nice and fresh! For the fries, I recommend asking for the string fries, the thick ones were a little too thick, but other than that, everything was great.
