Fairhaven​のベストステーキレストラン

Best fish and chips around…..always fresh and delicious! Our service Tabitha was great….friendly and attentive.

We visited the Black Whale on Valentine’s Day. We had a reservation for 6:30 and were seated at 7:00. The place was mobbed so we anticipated a delay. Once we were seated, we were given 2 glasses of champagne for the delay which was totally unexpected. It was a very nice gesture. Our server Amy was exceptional. She was so pleasant and professional. All the staff were top notch and pleasant. We started with the boom boom shrimp which were delicious with a nice kick. I had the steak frites and it was perfection. It’s always an exceptional cut and cooked just the way I like it. My husband ordered the lobster thermidor which he said was delicious. If you’re up for a delicious dinner with exceptional service, this is the place.

We were the only people in there. We went on Valentine's Day at 2:30 in the afternoon, which was perfect. We had our choice of seating. The staff were very kind and accommodated. There was a special menu this night that we were unaware of because we go there for one thing, and it's the cod with passion fruit cream sauce. Which was not on the menu, but the chef was able to make it for us anyway. Which was awesome bc it was kind of a disappointment to see such a small variety of meals to choose from. I wanted a salad, but they didn't have any on the menu for that night, which was fine. I ended up getting the chicken Mozambique. Which was hit and delicious. The only complaint I had was that the chicken was steaming hot, but the rice was cold. I took a couple of bites and left it. Our overall time there was great. We have been here before with zero complaints, and that is why I still gave the 5 start rating. We will be coming back as always.

The food, the ambience, and the service is ALWAYS incredibly good. Going to Bocca is like going home - always welcoming and always warm and wonderful! If I were allowed one suggestion it would be: please ask people to refrain from talking on or engaging their cell phones while dining. There was a person near me who was dining alone. His entire time was spent watching rather loud videos. While I requested that the server ask him to lower the volume, it was disruptive nonetheless. Perhaps it’s just the way or the world…. The meal was still fabulous!

We dined there on NYE. They had an available reservation earlier in the evening so we thought we would try it. Molly was our server and she was the only server that night. She was hustling. I had the shrimp Mozambique. It was good but different with potatoes and rice. We also had a lobster roll but too many claws. My husband did not love it. My daughter had the baked scallops and she liked them. Kale soup was yummy . Drinks were ok. The dinner was pricey in my opinion. The place is probably better to visit in the summer. This is being picky but I liked to have a glass of water shortyly after being seated.
