New Bedford
About the restaurant
Serving fresh, bold and innovative food that reflects the history of New Bedford and celebrates the New Bedford fishermen, their catch and their culture.

Our menu focuses on local fishermen’s catch of the day, old school seafood favorites and a sprinkling of modern seafood interpretations. Menu ranges from raw bar, to warm and cold lobster rolls, baked cod, bacon wrapped scallops, bouillabaisse and grilled NY Strip.

Large bar and spectacular views of the artful New Bedford Fishing Fleet. Large covered and heated deck overlooking the fishing boats and harbor. Centrally located beside the Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket Ferries. Large parking lot.

And, of course, the hospitality is second to none. Service is what built the business.

Dartmouth
About the restaurant
Way back in 1975, the Sail Loft lit the fire for Steve Silverstein, who went on to open nearly 40 restaurants. Located in the quintessential seaside village of Padanaram, it was the neighborhood place where you could get a good (strong) drink, chef prepared comfort food and relax in a convivial atmosphere with familiar faces. The Sail Loft was everyone’s favorite place; it was a hangout where some came for food and others for drink.

When the Sail Loft became available in 2021, Steve jumped on the opportunity to take the wheel. Steve and his wife Judy transformed the Sail Loft into an elevated neighborhood restaurant with a distinct updated boatyard feel. The spot is nautical with a chef-driven yet approachable menu, a deep selection of spirts and an intriguing wine list. As with all of Silverstein’s places, while the food, drink and design are always top-notch, it is the warm hospitality that keeps ‘em coming back.

Outstanding and delicious! Atmosphere is always perfect and Jeff on bar is one of our favorites but all the staff at the inn is super friendly and helpful. Always a good idea and always an amazing meal. Handles gluten free orders very carefully and has many Options plus a dedicated gluten free fryer one of the only places I can enjoy gluten free fries safely, a delicious treat.

We made reservations because we had tickets to a local theater. I included special instructions when I made the online reservation. They acknowleged the instruction when we arrived and sat us at our reservation time. The service was great! Our waitperson acknowledged a couple more times that she was aware we were on a schedule. The food was good. The restaurant was quite busy, but the noise level did interrupt our conversation. We had a leisurely meal and was able to leave the restaurant in plenty of time to get to our destination.
