We visited Row 34 for the first time to use a gift certificate my wife was given for her birthday. We are not raw-bar people, but we ordered the restaurant week three-course meals. We started with clam chowder which was delicious! My wife got the fish and chips, and I had brioche-crusted cod. We both thought the meals were fantastic. Dessert for my wife was the chocolate chip cookie and I had the butterscotch pudding. Great endings for a fabulous meal!

Such a lovely setting for a delicious and relaxing high tea! The inn was decorated beautifully, the seasonal menu hit all the right notes and the service was amazing. I highly recommend it and look forward to returning - maybe for one of the murder mystery nights!

We went for our 52 Anniversary and found the staff to be very welcoming and attentive! We particularly enjoyed that along with a celebratory champagne toast, they played one of the special songs from our wedding as well. We were very happy with this experience.

First time trying. Found on Open Table and took wife for Birthday. Nothing special to look out, sort of out of way but no complaints. Plenty of parking, food was decent and prices were respectable. Would recommend for a casual meal but if you're looking for ambiance not so much. Again We'd return!
