A must-visit if you're in New Bedford. Fantastic food, with views of the boats tied up right outside the window. The salmon was excellent, as was the clam chowder.

Service was stellar! Our waitress was very attentive. Food was also very tasty- the new fried Brussels sprouts were very good. Only issue was the kitchen must have forgotten to fire our kid’s chicken tenders. She munched on her fruit and fries and legit the tenders came out last. It happens- she still ended up eating them all.
