    Was very nice, but the music was way too loud for the building. It could’ve been nice with just someone playing a guitar or just low-key cause it’s a small place. The place was the music was ear piercing. That’s the only complaint I have. I think they should rethink it.

    I frequently dine at the Blue Anchor. Tonight I went for their new Wednesday pasta prix fixe. It was outstanding and well worth the money. The Pasta Bolognese was one of the best I’ve had. Kudos on another great meal.

    Had a great dinner at Blue Anchor. Live music was a nice touch and the Specials were outstanding. Had the Monkfish wrapped in Puff Pastry which was delicious!

    Excellent experience at the Blue Anchor! Our waiter was incredible. Young man was attentive and informative. We had a wonderful conversation with him about his future as we were exiting. The food was fantastic! Kudos to the chef! Will definitely go back on our next visit to Portsmouth RI.
