Row 34 - Cambridge

Great cocktail and seafood spot. Fresh food with amazing service. The Blue Crab Cocktail was the perfect amount of real crab and cocktail sauce. The oysters and other seafood were all free and made to order. The margaritas and manhattans were way too easy to drink. Great place for lunch, dinner, or drinks with colleagues.

The service we got was so fantastic it had to be applauded! Panos was our server that evening for our outdoor table. It started to sprinkle and he was extremely communicative, never pressured us in either way and managed to work with the manager to get our large group an indoor table. It was the best service Ive ever experienced at any restaurant, ever.We started off our meal with some oysters and appetizers, ending with lobster rolls. All the food was generally great, with special call outs for the large mussels, island creek oysters and the lobster rolls obviously.Would definitely be back if I find myself back in Cambridge!

Good for large parties - we had a team dinner for 18 and they were able to accommodate. The food is solid, but nothing super memorable to write home to mom about. Probably wouldn't come here on my own, but it's just so convenient to Kendall Square.

Said goodbye to a week's visit to New England last week after visiting my sis and then friends, finishing up in Boston. Stayed in Cambridge next to the MIT campus at a neat place in Kendall Square and had an excellent farewell dinner at Row 34, a spot you should check out when you're in the hood. Excellent fresh-as-can-be seafood, with a great selection of oysters, lobster, beers, and the other necessities of life.While the house oysters were briny and glistening, next time I'll follow the server's lead 'cause in a selection of the ones I chose, her recommendations were even better-"Better," as in plumper, sweeter and much more flavorful. My advice? Have the lobster pasta dish. A 5 star dish that's so rich you can share it with your dining partner.

We read excellent reviews on Row 34 and three of us went in to enjoy one last meal together before heading back to our home states. We called ahead to see if we needed reservations and were told they could get us in now. Upon arrival, it was mostly empty, attractive simplistic decor and as the hostess was walking us to our table, she let us know we had be finished within the hour. I asked her if she was serious and very snidely said 'yes, we're booked with reservations.' Wow, just wow! So much for a relaxing evening out. The server was great, she spent time describing the differences in the oysters they offered and answered several questions about the menu options. Most of the food was quite good and the calamari I had as part of my meal was excellent! There was a bit too much tortilla to fish/fixings in the fish tacos, so there was tortilla left on the plate. The crab cake with corn salad was very good and I would definitely recommend it! We didn't bother with wine, cocktails or appetizers, since we were told to hurry. The manager ended up being the one to bring us our bills to sign. He asked how everything was and is apparently well aware of the hostess's brash demeanor with guests and he's talked to her more than once about this. He was apologetic, but honestly, she needs to find a new job if she's treated guests like this more than once. Hopefully this was a one off. I'm slated to go back to Boston next month and would consider giving them another try... even if to sit at the bar for calamari and a crab cake!

Solid fresh food did not disappoint. 4.5 stars. The lobster pasta was rich but wonderful. The whole fish was cooked perfectly and juicy. Trout was flavorful and complemented with gnocchi as a gluten free substitute for tabouli, which has gluten. Everything was great except the bluefin tuna was just so so. Overall great experience.

Wonderful experience. Great ambiance and service. Food was tasty. We got raw seafood tower. All the seafood were fresh and price was reasonable. My kids have nut allergy and they were able to skip the almond ingredient in the peach almond spritz which was a very nice gesture. Lots of local beer and cocktail options. We would certainly go back in the future. .

Everything is great, from the food, service, and ambience. The oysters are very tasty and fresh. Besides the oysters, the lobster roll is very delicious, and the lobster pasta is handmade, special and yummy. I'm very happy that my guests are satisfied. Will return for sure.

Price point a bit steep for what it is. Was looking forward to their cornbread on a skillet. For some reason It was served to us barely warm with an ice cold piece of butter on top that never melted.

Wow! Unbelievable food! The Buttered Lobster Roll changed my life seriously. It was so flavorful and came with big pieces of lobster on a wonderful roll. The thick fries were also massive and very good. The oysters were good, but be aware that they are stingy about giving our crackers. Friendly service as well!
