An evening at Harbor & Vine
What our guests say
“We came for our anniversary and stayed three hours. The branzino was perfect and nobody so much as glanced at their watch. This is what a date-night restaurant should be.”
“The tagliatelle with crab is the best pasta I've had north of Boston, full stop. Ask for a seat by the window at sunset — the harbor light is unreal.”
“They handled our party of ten in the private room without a hitch — set menu, wine pairings, the works. Our out-of-town family is still talking about it.”

Frequently asked questions
Do you take reservations?
Yes — we recommend booking 1–2 weeks ahead for Friday and Saturday evenings, especially in October. Use the reservation form below or call us; we hold a handful of bar seats for walk-ins every night.
Where should we park?
The South Harbor Garage on Congress Street is a 3-minute walk and validates after 5 PM. Street parking on Derby Street is metered until 8 PM and free after.
Can you accommodate dietary restrictions?
Absolutely. Most pastas can be made gluten-free with a day's notice, and the menu always carries vegetarian dishes. Note allergies in your reservation request and the kitchen will plan around them.
Do you host private events?
Our harbor-view private room seats up to 24 for rehearsal dinners, birthdays, and corporate dinners, with set menus starting at $85 per person. Email us for the events packet.
What's the dress code?
Smart casual — most guests dress up a little for the room, but there's no jacket requirement. We're a date-night spot, not a stuffy one.
