Jumpin' Jay's Fish Café - Portsmouth

From out of town the name honestly didn’t sell it but we’re so glad we tried. Everything was incredible. Food. Service. Atmosphere. All the above. Portions are great. Very accommodating for certain food restrictions. 100/10

Went here for our 56th anniversary Saturday night! This is the second time we’ve been here and not been able to order an entree because of the apps! We got PEI mussels and the calamari. My husband is a big eater but after drinks and these starters, we couldn’t eat another bite! Next time we are going to get one app to share and then hopefully have room enough for an entree! Service was great, drinks super! A cosmo and a dark and stormy. Will definitely be back again and again!

I came here during restaurant week and got their prix fix menu. Wonderful food. Would definitely come back again if I ever visit Portsmouth again. Very fresh bread rolls and butter, nice that it came with garlic. All very fresh, high quality ingredients. Nice atmosphere. Good, attentive service.

Oysters were ridiculously small--very disappointing, but the waiter brought me an additional one to compensate. Monkfish Saltimbocca was minimal amount ofl fish, strangely shaped gnocchi, tasteless broccoli ? no sage taste. Not a saltimbocca. Slapping a piece of prosciutto on a piece of fish does not make it saltimbocca.

Great restaurant! First thing I noticed is the happiness of the employees o thing but smiles. Everyone working helped each other and they seemed to be a team who enjoys working with each other because of that our service was impeccable. From drinks to the food everything was delicious. We started with fried calamari cooked perfectly, we had warm rolls served with soft butter ,roasted garlic and olives. We ordered the salmon and monk fish both cooked with so much flavor and the presentation was beautiful. Then for dessert we ordered the banana cake new on the menu I’m not a sweet eater but this was perfect not too sweet…..definitely everyone should visit this restaurant.
