Row 34

Row 34 in Kendall Square brings the New England seafood restaurant’s raw bar and signature lobster rolls to Cambridge. The name nods to the 34th row of oysters grown in Duxbury Bay, and the menu focuses on responsibly sourced seafood from local waters, with an emphasis on freshness and hospitality meant to bring guests back again and again. The dining room shares the brand’s lively, sleek and modern style.

The restaurant group is led by chef Jeremy Sewall and CEO Shore Gregory, and its sourcing is built on relationships: oysters from Duxbury Bay, lobsters from Sewall’s cousin in York, Maine, and daily catches from Boston’s Fish Pier, gathered by a company driver in an unbranded white truck. Open kitchens are part of the brand’s emphasis on transparency, and the group partners with small-scale fisheries and independent brewers.
