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.

Requested a table outside on the patio and because we arrived early for our reservation we were offered the choice of a few different tables which was a great start to our evening. Had one of the best martinis I’ve had in a very long time - ice cold, filled to the brim at the table, with stuffed olives too. The wine list was also excellent. We ordered a Caprese to start - delicious, served on a chilled platter with truly fresh ingredients. Something about eating a taste of summertime ripe tomatoes, fresh basil and mozzarella drizzled with balsamic and a hint of EVO sitting out on the patio in perfect weather! Our entrees of grilled salmon and chicken parm cooked and presented hot and simply delicious. Neroli’s has never disappointed and this mid-week birthday celebration for two was excellent as always.
