We stopped here late night after many rounds and not enough "real" food at Play arcade. Reviewing the receipt jogged my memory. Getting old(er) is no joke! The interior is very cool! It has a great vibe! The staff is friendly, and we were seated right away. We skipped drinks and went right to the food. We had fries, tuna nachos and deviled eggs. All of the food was reasonably priced and it really hit the spot. This was a quick visit that was absolutely worthwhile! If I'm back in New Bedford, I will definitely return here to explore the menu a little further.

I was in town for the New Bedford Film Festival and came across this place for dinner. I was…read morelooking for a olde time pub vibe so I popped in. I was the first customer of the night and sat at the bar. I received a friendly greeting from the bartender and a beautiful Manhattan to start things off. The steak frites dish was tasty but I did order it medium rare - it came out medium well. The truffle fries were very tasty! I had to interupt conversations between employees a couple of times to ask for things and to engage in conversation but for the most part, attentive service although I was never asked how my meal was. It is a fun space that offers both an old time feeling and a fun, artsy vibe, too. I recommend checking it out!

Our…read moreserver, Ray, was incredibly helpful, offering great suggestions for wine, appetizers, and entrées. We started with the calamari with spicy peppers and salsa rossa, which was delicious, well seasoned and very generous in portion. The Caesar salad with lemon-garlic dressing and a parmigiano crisp was perfectly balanced and fresh. The cacio e pepe arancini were a delightful surprise and quickly became a favorite at the table. For entrées, the scallops with risotto were outstanding. The Chicken Bosco and Chicken Francaise were both amazing: tender, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. For dessert, my mom loved the caramel apple cannoli, which paired perfectly with her cappuccino. It was an excellent meal from start to finish, with attentive service and great food. We'll definitely be back.

The food is nicely prepared with flavor and not just thrown together, but actually thought about and well done despite it being tough to get things in COVID. Good selection of beers on tap, and Terrha(bartender) knows her way around the bar as well! Favorite was the espresso martini for sure. Alan, the chef, came out several times when it wasn't busy to check on how everything was, and he's a fun one to talk to as well. On top of the food and drink being great, Alan and Terrha really make this place fantastic. They bring something you can't just fake or replicate to the restaurant. Which is an easy going, relaxing and fun atmosphere. Bottom line, if you're looking for yummy eats, and a good place with friendly faces, come here!

We had never been there before so thought we should try the clam cakes - fried and breaded, didn't really taste any clams. The only thing "seafood" about it was the tarter sauce. My wife and I had a seafood casserole and a fish and chip, which were very tasty but we both liked the picked beets the best - not such a great commentary for a seafood restaurant if we enjoyed the beets best of all. To us it was just average fare; nothing spectacular to write home about. The fish and chips had a strange doughy batter. We had a waiter who was pretty slow but the waitresses were running their butts off so kudos to them for a wonderful job. Thanks
