I would recommend the oarhouse to any friend, the food and service are phenomenal. Nick the bartender was great and John our server was so kind and made great recommendations. The food is upscale compared to most of the other docks I’ve been to in Portsmouth and the views are spectacular, I’ll definitely be back soon!

The food was reasonably good, but the service was lacking/inexperienced. For example, our appetizers were brought out at the same time as our entrees! A drink order was forgotten. Empty dishes were not cleared until we requested they be. So what could have been an enjoyable dinner was less than, I'm sorry to say.

We came here in october of 2020 on our honeymoon and again in october 2021. Both times we had the stuffed lobster which is fantastic. This time we tried the bruschetta and bacon wrapped scallops. The service is always friendly, and welcoming. Its always clean and so many different seating options fron the deck, the front room with a water view, or toward the back with ambient lighting. We will keep coming back everytime were on the coast!

Went here with 4 adults 2 kids for Mother’s Day in the afternoon. Our server was very nice but unfortunately just very slow. Our food took over an hour to come out, we waited at least 10 minutes each time we asked for drinks. Portions were smaller than normal standard these days in my opinion. No idea what we paid for the lobster roll but it was pretty small but did taste good. Key lime pie was gross and not fresh. Strawberry shortcake was not great either. 4 meals, 2 pizzas, 4 drinks came to $260. Felt like it was overpriced for the food/portions, ambience and service. Personally would not go back.

Are reservations required for lunch on the deck?

I think they are suggested. You can make a reservation by visiting the Oar House's website and then clicking the Resy app link. Or if you go to Google Maps, you'll see "Reserve a Table".
