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.

Cultivator Shoals is a neighborhood watering hole where classic cocktails and delicious bar food are served in a historical setting. Cultivator Shoals is also a rich fishing area on Georges Bank, established in 1929 where Rose Alley is now and frequented by the world-famous New Bedford Fishermen.We tip our hat to Howie Mallowes & Jay Lanagan who had the vision to remake Cultivator Shoals as an artisan cocktail bar and relocate to the Benjamin Taber Double House; a place that Melville lived in off and on. Our drinks are classic with modern twists, all hand-made to order, following time-honored techniques. Our beers are a rotating selection of local and regional craft brewers, our wine list is a highly curated selection of new and old-world bottles. Our food is chef-made from scratch; we serve bar food with a twist. Our friendly team is some of the best bartenders and chefs in the area. At Cult you will have a great cocktail, good conversation and delicious sustenance.

    Another great experience at Sail Loft for Valentine’s Day. Really nice, lovely atmosphere (not too stuffy and Valentine’s Day serious) and our meals were excellent. Started with drinks. The girlfriend had a spicy coconut margarita with a tajin rim, was delicious. For apps we had calamari and lobster rangoon, both were great. Main meal, we split a large piece of sautéed cod over asparagus and cauliflower mashed. So tender and well seasoned. Capped the night by splitting a slice of chocolate cookie crusted cheesecake served on top of a luxardo cherry puree. I can’t put into words how incredible it was. We love this place, it never disappoints. They put so much care and culinary talent into everything they serve. If you’re wondering whether to go to Sail Loft, stop wondering and just go. You won’t be disappointed.

    Although I have lived in the area for years, this was the first time going to Cork. The waiter was friendly, professional, and attentive. We had two entrees, the lamb and the scallops. Both were cooked perfectly. We did not leave a morsel on the plate. We also tried a new wine that is now our favorite. We will definately be going back soon. Top notch ambiance, service, and food.

    We enjoyed our Valentines meal. The oysters Rockefeller were outstanding. We also had the Romeo and Juliet filet and lobster. Both were large portions and very flavorful.

    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!

    Took my mother here during a short visit. We had such a lovely experience. From the wonderful hostess that joked with us despite a high degree of cheesiness to every single lovely person that came to our table it was a true pleasure. I got a very playful Italian white and my mother got the most sublime martini called the butterfly. Look it up or just order it. Our food was insanely delicious. We ordered: whipped ricotta, arugula salad, osso buck and the cacio e pepe. All of these meals had such delicious elements to them (just go look at the dang menu already!). Refined yet incredibly comforting. Our eyes were bigger that our stomachs, so the value from what we ordered is almost as amazing as everything tasted. Decor is fabtastic and such a lovely atmosphere. One of the cooler bars around that I’ve seen. Treat yourself to a fantastic meal here - will make your day.
