Best Contemporary American Restaurants in Dartmouth

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

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 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.

Party of three in the perfect igloo for a beautiful sunset. The service was very good. Calamari , chowder, clam fritters, lobster pasta and short rib tacos were all exceptionally delicious! We will return to The Reef.

First time there. Cute place. An old pub. Small but quaint. We got seated next to a window. It happened to be about 10 degrees out and the window was stuck cracked open at the top. So the area was chilled. Not the end of the world. Ordered tuna nachos and wings to start. Both great. Actually - those tuna nachos were the best thing I have eaten in a long time. So, so good. Then I just got the Caesar salad which was ok. My husband got a burger and said it was wonderful with a great flame grilled taste. My daughter got the spicy chicken sandwich. While she liked it she later didn’t feel great and wondered if the kimchi pickles and all the spices just hit her wrong. Not sure. Shoestring fries with both sandwiches were great with a flavorful aioli. I would definitely go back and immediately get an order of tuna nachos for myself alone! One thing to mention - and maybe this wasn’t typical - but there was a large group of 9 or 10 in this small dining area and they were loud. Like ridiculously loud. And it was only 6pm. The waitress did address the noise with them and it got a bit better. When they left, though, it was amazing the difference - I could hear the music and have a conversation with others. Hopefully when anyone else goes next there isn’t a loud table like that. The room is too small with tables too close for noisy people like that. Just my opinion.
