Best Restaurants for Groups in Durham

It was our first time at La Maison Navarre and we were a group of 6 for dinner. The food, wine and service was excellent. We're definitely looking forward to our next visit.

We had a wonderful birthday dinner here. Our server was excellent. The pace was gentle in a good way. Food was just amazing, as was the presentation. The dining room is warm and cozy and a little elegant too. The setting seems lovely but it was dark out - we’ll have to come back in the spring. I had put that it was my birthday in the Open Table reservation - they really lifted that up with some champagne glasses at the start and a spectacular special dessert at the end.

My family and I (6 in all) enjoyed an excellent dinner last night. We were celebrating my granddaughter's 21st, and they graciously provided a celebratory glass of Prosecco, and made a point of coming over to add his congradulations. Nothing but praise for the entire experience. That being said, one word of caution...parking is very difficult so if you don't know Portsmouth please give yourself some extra time and figure out how to get to a parking garage and walk to the restaurant. I was lucky and found a spot 50 feet from the front door....but my kids took 15 minutes to sort it out.

Food and drinks were very good, but our server did not seem to like having us. Everyone else who came to our table was very friendly and warm but our server appeared to be annoyed the entire time to have our table.

Our party of six each enjoyed various drinks and items from the menu. Everything was fresh and delicious. Our server, Romaine, made us feel welcome and took great care of us during our dining experience. Hope to go back again soon.
