The Gulf Stream Bar and Grille: Reviews & Ratings
wonderful family owned restaurant, LOCALS! amazing food, service and view ! so many options, lots of vegetarian options as well that are actually good. worth the drive, free parking, beautiful place, beautiful people. great drinks too
Finally made it to The Gulf Stream Bar & Grille after hearing such great things! Atmosphere is amazing with a beautiful seashells inlay epoxy bar next to the Raw bar. They took the time to explain the different oysters and their origin. Next, we had a delicious stuffie that had the perfect amount of spice. Then we tried the Bean & Corn Salad topped with Lobster Salad that had a good portion of lobster along with a perfectly cooked Ribeye. The Bartenders and Owner were friendly & made us feel so welcomed! There was also live music that gave you the feel you were on vacation. I can’t wait to go back!
My husband, our pup and I had the chance to checkout the newly built addition at Gulf Stream this past weekend. What a change! The additional seating is enclosed and heated now accommodating 5-6 more tables and the outdoor bar. It is fantastic. The food arrived super quickly- we ordered sandwiches (mine was the Debris pictured) and they were delicious. The debris has tender roast beef with cheese and horseradish sauce- I love it because it reminds me of my beloved favorite - the beef on week. Relax, have some sips on the new deck and a Sammy or 2 at this awesome dog friendly spot on the water.
On the evening of 12/3 my wife and I had the good fortune to eat at the Gulf Stream Bar and Grille in Portsmouth located at 1 Lagoon Rd this cozy marina side eatery is a hidden gem of the Portsmouth Restaurant scene. To our surprise they had live music provided by “Music by Mel” which was very nice. I had a lovely, canned Field Day rhubarb rose sour cider. For appetizers we shared Jamaican jerk chicken wings which were flavorful and juicy. For dinner I tried the debris Sandwich and my wife had pineapple chicken. My sandwich was tender, slow cooked, pulled beef with cheese, lettuce, tomato, and some of the most delicious house made half sour pickles I've had around here. And the few bites of her pineapple chicken I was able to get were extremely tender and flavorful, the yellow rice was also delicious. We are going to try dessert the dessert was fantastic and different from anything we have tried around Town fried plantains with ice cream. The service we received the entire time was fantastic. Our server was extremely knowledgeable, personable, and attentive.
The clam chowder was great! The staff was friendly and attentive, and it's located just around the corner from Rail Exploers. It's a great stop after peddling a rail cart 6 miles!
Beautiful setting. Delicious fish tacos and sweet potato tots. A first. Server was spectacular - fun. Gracious. Attentive. Unfortunately the kitchen was bery slow. We waited nearly an hour for simple fare. Drinks arrived promptly with startling results. All good and lovely experience.will definitely return. Thanks to gracious staff!
Stopped by at noon on a Friday for lunch. Some shaded seating outside. We ate inside, very pleasant. Food was delicious, Melissa, our server, was very knowledgeable about the food, drinks, the specials, and very sweet as well. I would suggest this place to anyone that is in the vicinity.
What a wonderful place. The staff was polite and friendly and the Nachos were AWESOME. Melissa was our waitress and she was great. Got the Nachos with “debris” which was slow roasted Chuck roast along with the pineapple salsa. Along with Cocktails.
