This is a quaint place for Portuguese dining. The tables were beautifully set with white tablecloths. I ordered the Whiskey & Espresso Bife. The flavors were delicious. The service was very nice. The serving staff were very kind & attentive. Absolutely loved it here.

Wonderful greeting by hostess. We sat out on covered porch. Our server, Kathy, was excellent. Knowledgeable, helpful but not intrusive. We shared the tuna tartar app….delicious ! We had the pan seared cod and simply salmon with salad and asparagus. Both entrees were perfectly cooked!! We were too full for dessert, bit the list looked great!! Another great experience !!

Great service, great food, great spot. Loved the jazz music and the dimmed lights, ambience was perfect. Everyone was very nice and welcoming, definitely run a tight ship.

When you find yourself in New Bedford, MA, treat yourself to a meal at The Black Whale. Extremely convenient location, plenty of parking and a beautiful building make a great first impression. We were warmly greeted by a Manager and a Server, and even though we were 40 minutes early, they sat us straight away. The menu is extensive, however, not overwhelming, and SO many great choices. Our Server, Meredith was very warm and welcoming, starting us off with water and their delectable salmon dip with tasty “crackers”. To aid the decision making process, my wife started with a Painkiller, and I a Maine Lunch. We finally decided on the tuna poke bowl for my wife and the pan-seared scallops for me. Oh, and I had to try the New England Clam Chowder, the best I have had in quite some time. Then Meredith informed me the chowder is an Officials and People’s choice award winner from this year’s festival. Please do try it! Honestly one of the most delightful, delicious and enjoyable meals I’ve had in the area. The Black Whale is definitely a must do when you find yourself in the New Bedford area, or you are just passing through.

This was our first time dining here and the waitress was wonderful and very attentive without hovering. The portion size was very generous on 3 or the 4 meals ordered. Nice variety of dishes on the menu. Location is nestled in the downtown part of the city and still had a quaint neighborhood feel. Ceilings are high so noise was not an issue at all. Dining area we sat in was about 80% full. The only negative comment was that the 2 of the seafood dinners served did not have the variety of seafood choices as described on the menu and one of the seafood dinners was not in the lemon/butter sauce stated and was served in a mozambique sauce....a very different flavor. Also, crab legs were served and they didn't have any crab leg cracker tools making eating very difficult. Overall, we would return for a second try.....
