Inspired by Chef DeSouza’s love for culinary arts, our New Bedford retreat pays homage to the ocean's treasures and the essence of New England. Each dish reflects a blend of heritage, creativity, and commitment, featuring delights from Maine clams to fresh local sea scallops. Our Clam Chowder, Lobster Bisque, Kale Soup, Stuffed Quahogs, and a variety of other signature items have earned us numerous awards. Among our offerings, the Fish and Chips stands out as a beloved local favorite. More than a restaurant, we are a family dedicated to giving back to our community, building relationships, and honoring the spirit of New England. Whether you prefer a sun-lit meal on our heated, open patio, a snug dinner on our covered, heated deck, or a warm atmosphere inside at the bar or in a booth, we have the ideal spot for you. Conveniently located at the New Bedford - South Dartmouth border, just off the west ramp of the beautiful Cove walk, we are right across from the scenic Clark's Cove.

    My wife and I have been going to Abe & Louie’s on or near Valentine’s Day for many years. It is one of the last old school steak restaurants in Boston. Great service as always and our waiter, Chris was outstanding. We shared a beet and goat cheese salad - perfect. I had the 16 oz NY strip steak. OMG - it was fabulous. Home fries on the side are always a must. My wife had chicken with some crisp, chunks of potatoes. I admit to stealing a few pieces from her plate. Delicious key lime pie for desert. If you want a really good steak and nice service - go to Abe & Louie’s!

    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.

    We always love going to Joe's. The food is always delicious and the choices are interesting and creative. The value for your money is good. The bread is always a treat. Our waitress was wonderful. There is always a fun vibe there. The environment is bright, fun and colorful. The specials are always worth a look. Parking is never a problem and reservations are easy. They are always willing to accommodate any needs you may have. This is a great place to meet a friend for a drink or bring the family for a celebration.

    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.
