Portsmouth Publick House

First time here. Date night with my man. I made reservations through Open Table…I guess you really don’t need to make reservations for a Tuesday night :-) I will say that we were there for about 40 minutes when we were called by the restaurant, reminding me of my reservation. I explained that we were seated by Adam and we all had a laugh. Adam was exceptionally awesome! They were terribly short staffed last night and he was working very hard to keep every one of the patrons happy. He even had some great suggestions on what to cook with some dressing that we had purchased from New Mexico. Adam knows about Hatch green chile!! Super cool guy and he made our evening special. The food was ok. I read all of the reviews from both yelp and google before I went. I think that if the stats all align

Nice atmosphere. Alot of tvs, great spot for watching sport games. Great food . Quick service. Family friendly

I liked the place and the food was ok. Since I had covid, I can't taste a lot of foods. I got the clam pasta, the clams were huge and plump and delicious, I could taste them, but I couldn't the pasta and the broth. My son had the same and said it was great. The rest of my party enjoyed their food too. We all shared a plate of guacamole and salsa and they were pretty good. The restaurant is nice and comfortable, their outdoor patio looked nice too, but it was too hot to get an outdoor table, I only gave service 3 stars because it was so overboard, it was uncomfortable. Our waitress was on top of us every second of our meal. she set the drinks down and before we even took a sip, she asked if everything was ok. She did the same with the appetizers and the meal, she came back before we could

Oh the clam appetizer is soooo good I want to make it at home. 8 clams in a delightful herb infused oil served with little pieces of buttered toast..yum. The reuben on rye was great. Service was friendly and efficient. Place is very nice, great sports vibe and nice firepit outside to eat by when cool.

We loved it here. Not the best food in town, but great friendly service!
