34 is Chef Emeril Lagasse’s first restaurant dedicated to the cuisine of his Portuguese heritage. He was inspired by his late mother, Hilda, who influenced his interest in cooking when he was a child growing up in Fall River, MA. The 245-seat restaurant is adorned in shades of green – Emeril’s signature color – wood accents and ornate Portuguese tiles. A painting of a rooster, a national Portuguese symbol of good luck, greets guests at the entrance. Once inside, a jamon bar with countertop service and tile-clad DJ booth are focal points of the space. The restaurant celebrates not only the food and design of Portugal but also the sounds, with music from local and touring DJs.

Only place I know about in the city to get authentic Portuguese food! And it did not disappoint. From the architecture to the house mix dj, the mood rides the line of intimacy to classy city club. The service was a bit chaotic and unconventional, but we were compensated with sparkling wine, a great description of our options and quick service after orders were placed. The encouraged “share your foods” style was right up our date night alley. All we say is we’ll be back and try the paella!

Very elegant place, very good service but food was not what I expected for a traditional Portuguese restaurant. Only one cod dish in the menu and it was extremely salty. We ordered a Piri piri chicken and got the meat dish instead. I decided not to ask to change cause it was NYE and it could take long.
