My husband and I made reservations for the restaurant it was our 23 year anniversary and we had our wedding reception there 23 years ago so we wanted to go back. We had made a note in the reservation what we were celebrating and there was no mention of it from the hostess or waitress. Not a big deal but makes you wonder why they gave a note section. I ordered a cocktail and it tasted horrible so sent it back for something different. We ordered the salad with chicken and the spinach that was in the salad had already gone bad and was yellow. I pointed this out to the waitress who said she would mention it to the chef, but no one came back to see if there was anything else I would like. . I had to ask her to remove it from the bill that I was unsatisfied and did not want to eat it. The service and food was poor and we will not return.

The restaurant is in the lobby of the Sheraton Portsmouth Harborside Hotel. While it is semi-open to the lobby, it has a nice view of the river, and it is clearly demarcated from the rest of the lobby. The bar makes some excellent cocktails. The menu is varied, the service was friendly, and the food was tasty.

My family of 4 stayed in the Sheraton and ate at Two Fifty Market twice for breakfast and once for dinner. All were good experiences but our dinner experience was truly outstanding. We ate outside with a water view and had the most amazing server — Teagan — who went above and beyond for us. One of us has a food allergy but instead of just telling us what to avoid, Teagan worked with the kitchen staff to help us have a memorable meal that accommodated the food allergy. It was exemplary and Teagan was incredible!!

Good food but you should know it's in side of the hotel so can be a little tricky to find the entrance

Nice restaurant with a beautiful view of the water. It was uncrowded, which was surprising on Father's day lunchtime. Service was a bit slow; food was very good. Would eat here again.
Doug
Good food. Great dining area. Menu way too limited. More options for seafoods and steaks. Would improve it a lot

We had the Easter buffet. It was good. Food could have been hotter. Overall ok. Very pricey for what you get. Service was outstanding. Staff were attentive and friendly!
Kathleen
I would not recommend this for Easter. It was not in the restaurant but in the ballroom. The server was nowhere to be found for the whole meal, it was a buffet and gratuity was automatically added. Set up like a cheap wedding. Not good.
Dan
Service was great. Food was not good. Salads were average. Soup was all pasta for a chicken soup.
I made the reservation expecting their regular menu. Instead we were presented with a prix fix menu. However, the evening progressed we noticed that other diners were ordering off the regular menu. It would have been nice to have been given the option. With that said, the prix fix menu option were excellent. The server was attentive and friendly.

Our biggest complaint was that this did not feel like a genuine restaurant. It was just off the lobby of the Sheraton, had only a few tables and really felt like a hotel eating place. There were several folks just working there and eating while clearly staying there for business. You could also hear lots of noise from a nearby events room. Additionally, the staff while friendly and attentive failed to follow a simple request which then delayed the food preparation and delivery. While the food was more than decent, I would not choose to go there again. There are many restaurants capable of producing this quality of food.

After a big mishap, with Instacart, on Christmas Eve that left my daughter and I without supplies for the Christmas dinner we had planned. On Christmas morning I was scrambling to find a place, that was open, and found Two-Fifty Market on Open Table and immediately booked a reservation for 2pm. It was a little bit of a drive for us but was well worth it. It was an all you can eat buffet and the food was quite good (especially the dessert). We are considering making it a new tradition. It is in a hotel and the lobby was beautifully decorated for Christmas. We spent about 2 and a half hours there and didn't feel rushed at all. I would definitely recommend their Christmas dinner. It was lovely!

Everything was wonderful thank you! The only thing was the waiter was not very attentive to my family and I. He also distracted my mother. The food was wonderful and the rest was lovely!
Overpriced and mediocre food
