The season for outdoor dining in New Hampshire is all too short – as is the season when it’s comfortable to be right on the oceanfront without many layers. That’s why we have to make the most of it! And what could be better than enjoying a cool ocean breeze on a hot night, while digging into a delicious meal? There’s one Portsmouth restaurant that delivers all of that and more – check it out before the summer ends.
Since it opened in 2002, Surf in Portsmouth has developed a reputation for the best seafood on the Seacoast. From sushi to swordfish, everything on the menu is absolute perfection.
