The Seacoast has such a bounty of restaurants that a standard seven-day week isn’t long enough to fit in a meal at each. That’s why Restaurant Week Portsmouth & the Seacoast lasts a full 10 days, from April 9 to 18. Sponsored by the Greater Portsmouth Chamber of Commerce, the event lets diners sample a variety of culinary creations at 49 Seacoast restaurants.
Participating restaurants will offer special three-course menus for lunch and dinner at prix fixe prices of $16.95 and $29.95. Prices are per person and do not include beverages, taxes, or gratuity. Among the particpating restaurants this year are Agave Mexican Bistro in Portsmouth, The Atlantic Grill in Rye, Café Nostimo in Portsmouth, Cara Irish Pub in Dover, Moxy in Portsmouth, Epoch Restaurant & Bar in Exeter, Tulsi Indian Restaurant in Kittery, Stages at One Washington in Dover, and many others.
