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.

We had a lovely meal at The Black Whale for our wedding anniversary. We are always so pleased with this restaurant group. We enjoy all of their restaurants, with The Black Whale being one of our favorites. We had the boom boom shrimp appetizer, two sushi rolls, an entrée on special, and the classic baked “old school New England cod.” Everything was delicious and the service was incredible. Five stars all around.

Rubin was the absolute best! We had a large, somewhat rowdy group and he knocked it out of the park with all our requests. The presentation of the seafood tower was so good, we brought as group back the next night. The food is beyond, the live singer was amazing and the ambiance was exactly what we needed. We will be telling everyone about Mastro's Boston, and I can't wait for the San Diego location to open.
