6 Best Asian Restaurants near Portsmouth

“From the start I felt I was walking into a dream. Beautiful and unexpected decor. Stylish, Upscale, Modern. Not what I'm familiar with in most Asian restaurants. Enchanting and romantic.

As they say, 'you eat with your eyes first', and right off the bat, my eyes were telling me we were about to dive into something flavorful, delicious and satifying.
The Pho noodle bowl with shrimp was steaming and presented with a side of garnishes; basil, mint, jalapeno, bean sprouts, lime wedges and a little dish of the best house made hot sriracha. Wow! Packed a flavor-filled punch. We used every bit of it. (Will take tums later).
The grilled lemongrass chicken thighs were juicy and so, so good. Excellent alongside a perfect bowl of garlic ftied rice.

The servers were so friendly and helpful when we asked questions about origins of some of the dishes.

If I lived anywhere near this place it would be a frequent dining choice.
Or even to come for cocktails. The bar is stunning. We had a 3 hour drive to home ahead of us so we couldn't induge. But, if they put as much care into making a good drink as they do into everything else, I'm certain it's worth a visit to just relax and enjoy a drink while sitting at the gorgeous bar.

I hope we travel this way again soon. Will be a top choice on my list of dining places to enjoy.“

“BAO 155 is great. It is in a beautiful space right in the heart of Portsmouth. The menu had so many options, we had a hard time choosing. We ended up getting a little of everything. The service was exceptional. Our order was prepared quickly and the food was amazing. This is a 100% must try when in Portsmouth. You will not regret it!“

“First time for hot pot, my 11yr kept asking do it so it became a birthday thing . Staff took us though it all, checked on us the right amount of times and really like sharing their know how. Food was above expected and they have a full menu also. Dinner for 3 with 2 drinks, 3 apps and 2 entrees with extra side just climbed over $100. Go there and be happy!“

“Tea for you has the best bubble tea, the most welcoming staff, and the cutest shop. We live over 2 hours but stop by every time we're in the area.“

“I am no "foodie", but I can tell that this place is next level good! Balanced favors! Aspects that I would normally shy away from, but that blended to be remarkable! Spectacular! "Best ramen I ahve ever had!" Per my college daughter.“

“Excellent food and customer service. Definitely will recommend to friends!“
