“I stumbled upon the roost a few year ago and have had many different experiences, some good, some not so great but Last week I went in during lunch with my wife and our friends. Our waitress was more than amazing! She was very cheerful, fun, knowledgeable and very observant! I am a veteran but also someone who NEVER asks if a restaurant has a veterans discount. Our server noticed my military pin on my jacket and asked if I had served our country, the answer was yes in which she instantly thanked me for my service and informed me that they offer a veterans discount for “those who serve our country”. I was very impressed because no one has ever been so observant as she was as well as having some really great recommendations on food and drinks and was able to carry an awesome conversation with our table! Although she was by herself and somewhat busy (making drinks, cleaning, and delivering food) her service continued to be impeccable and she didn’t even look flustered at all! She also had a very unique name that my wife really fell in love with! Although when she first brought us our check she had forgotten to put the discount on our bill (we did not tell her she had forgotten it) but as soon as she came back over to grab our payment, she realized her mistake and immediately applied the discount for us. My wife, our friends, and I have been to many restaurants and all agreed that this was the best experience we have ever had! We will be back again to visit our new favorite server!“

“While the new cafe only opened today, I already know I have a problem. Staff is friendly, snacks are delicious, and the cafe is adorable! What a great addition to 75 Portsmouth Ave!“

“We love Cafe Med ♥️ they are amazing and never disappoint“

“Bridge Street is one of the best kept secrets in Portsmouth. Is it even a secret, really? Set just off to the side of the main strip, Bridge Street is tucked in among the houses of Portsmouth residents. It is some of the best French food I’ve had outside of France, too. Their wine list is great, their chef is spectacular, and their service is mostly good but can sometimes be so-so (we’ve dined her probably five times and only had one not the best experience, so more good than so-so). Their Filet au Poivre and Coq au Van are two delightful recommendations and be sure you don’t skip dessert!“

“We have been to the Trumpet a number of times. When we used to live in the area we would come at least six times a year. We had to come back to Portsmouth as we came here for our wedding dinner. A few years later we are back for our anniversary dinner. Although we travel and have been to some fabulous places, we always say that there is no where that even comes close to the experience and food we receive at the Black Trumpet.“

“Soo good worth the DoorDash wait for delivery all the way to Hampton. Tastes amazing re heated and even better for breakfast. The Maserati pizza was amazing and the fried dough bites are sooo yummy!“

“Was here for a reserved dinner buffet style for 22 people for my brother's wedding rehearsal dinner.The drinks were awesome. Well made and you could tell it was an experienced bartender.The main course and side dishes were top-notch notch delicious. Before I continue let me just say I am SUPER picky about food. There was chicken breast with a type of Cranberry stuffing that was amazing chicken was tender and moist and the stuffing was so delicious. There was Fish with a type of stuffing that was awesome fish was tender flaky and perfectly cooked. There was a steak tip dish but I did not try it however the rest of the party all said it was very delicious. The side dishes were mixed green salad, baby oven-roasted seasoned potatoes, and oven-roasted mixed vegetables broccoli cauliflower, etc. I had the salad and baby potatoes and both were fantastic. There was only one type of salad dressing it was a creamy balsamic and it was absolutely delicious only wish there were a couple of different choices and there were no croutons but these are just personal preferences.Now onto dessert...there was regular cheesecake chocolate cheesecake and apple streusel. The regular cheesecake was ok but the chocolate cheesecake was yucky and the apple streusel was horrible. I could not even eat it and my father who eats just about anything couldnt eat it either. Mind you I love everything apple and apple streusel is my favorite. I've had some not great apple streusel but this was the worst I've ever had.Our waitress was fantastic.The atmosphere was really nice.It was not extremely clean but I'm a clean freak so things bother me like dust on light shades and on window sills where I'm eating.

Parking: Parking was extremely difficult. We had to drive around again and again and again and again and again before we spotted a car pulling out of a parking spot and then it was like piranha fighting over the spot so at this point we were late for the dinner even though we arrived 20 mins early. Also if you don't know where the entrance to the restaurant is it will take a bit for you to find because it sits way off the road in the mill building and the sign is small and not easy to see from the street.“
