Cove Surf and Turf

Mother and son team, Deborah DeSouza and Jesse DeSouza, joined talents professionally in 2012 as a celebration of decades of experience in the restaurant industry. Forming the partnership of Pub 6 at the Sixth Bristol Club, the family built a solid foundation by showcasing New England's ocean bounty: Ipswich clams, New Bedford sea scallops and wild Atlantic haddock at family-friendly prices.

A 5-star rating was earned by the Standard-Times food critic, Jonathan Comey In 2013. Facebook polls of South Coast Today's readers resulted in top 10 ranking for fish & chips, fried clams and clam chowder in 2013. Three awards were claimed at the 2013 and 2014 New Bedford Chowder Festivals - Judges' Choice for Stuffed Pepper Soup and Clam Chowder.

In June 2014 Cove Surf & Turf was created and moved into its rightful little home by the sea, bringing with it a dedicated experienced staff, prize recipes & menu. The quality of service and food at this "Great South End Gem" is further illustrated by Auditi Guha's review in SouthCoast Today. In January, 2015, the seafood restaurant launched a delivery service, making the neighborhood's favorite fish and chips, fried clams, burgers and everything else accesible in the convenience of your home in New Bedford and South Dartmouth. Most recently, first and second place prizes were awarded for the special Gluten-Free Seafood Chowder by judges and visitors of the 2016 New Bedford Seaport Chowder Festival.
