Get the ribs! Get the sauce! Enjoy Always a great experience. Dining in or take out, I have never had a bad meal. Service is always great. Call ahead to make sure they have the ribs, as they tend to sell out. The octopus and cod dishes are delicious. read more

Best chicken, rice and French fries!!!! Fast service, great staff! 10 out of 10 in my book!!!

ordered steak tips mozambique for takeout. Not only they were not tips but a flat steak cut in strips, but also no Mozambique sauce at all. Just unseasoned steak. My wife had shrimp Mozambique and it was was fine. read more

Good food and very decent prices. Ordered take-out and I have to say I was getting slightly annoyed on the phone trying to order the food ... the girl on the phone was talking kinda quiet (she sounded like a kid, not really sure) and I have to repeat my name 3 times and also spelled it out then saying it again for the 4th time ... so ya, that was getting on my nerves. But anyway. I got a steak sandwich, hubby got a 1/2 BBQ chicken with a salad & rice on the side, and a fish & chip for my Mum. The steak sandwich was OK, pretty simple ... thin piece of meat but still OK with straight cut fries (at least they weren't shoestring fries, I hate shoestring fries, the get cold & stale too fast). Hubby loved his chicken meal. And the fish & chip alright, Mum said the batter was crispy and the fish tasted fresh. Hubby definitely wants to go back for the chicken, he loved it. I tried a piece, it was good and juicy, not dry. read more

See all

Nothing really to update. Still amazing. Last time I mentioned the cacoila. Always a go to. HOWEVER....the ribs and chicken are off the charts. Can't really get this anywhere else in the city(to my knowledge). 1/2 chix/1/4 ribs/2 sides -$17.50 read more

My Place - Portuguese Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

This is a good neighborhood restaurant, and if I lived in the neighborhood, I would likely go back on a regular basis. However, I do not live nearby and it is not worth the drive for me. I ordered the Chicken and Ribs combo with crispy fries. The portions were enormous. All were good, but the chicken and ribs were both over cooked and too dry. This may be the luck if the draw as both seem to be cooked in advance. You will likely enjoy your meal, but there are better Portuguese restaurants in New Bedford. If you are looking for Portuguese Chicken, Churrascaria Novo Mundo is a much better choice. read more

Great Portuguese food and the service was good where the young staff were not buried in their phones. More of a takeout place, but that's a good thing where you can always find a seat to enjoy Great food. read more

RUDE! Won't be going back! Drove 30 minutes just to eat here, and we were turned away at 6:00 p.m on a Sunday. We were told they weren't taking anymore tables, although the sign posted says that they are open until 8 p.m. NO explanation was given! It's too bad because our previous experience was a good one. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!!! read more

The food and service were amazing! Incredible flavor and huge portions. Wait staff checked to make sure of gluten-free options. Clean, friendly, great restaurant and food! read more

My Place - two people in a restaurant - Portuguese Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

They refuse to answer the phone when its busy, and will hang up if you retry. Deliveries are late and they just dont give a shet about to go food orders. Not worth the hassle read more

The only bad thing about this place is that it's too small and they need to expand!! The food is delicious, plentiful and affordable. Service is impeccable. My go to on a Friday night. read more

I had the food catered for a party I was hosting, the food was delicious and the staff went above and beyond to help me, thanks again my place !! read more

Grilled chicken was very rubbery! Felt sick after eating it! Ribs and 1/2 chicken were good and the special dipping sauce was Bomb!

Not only is their food delicious but their servers are attentive and very friendly. My fiancé and I come here all the time and they're always very fast, helpful, and friendly. I have never left here unsatisfied with both my meal and experience. 10/10 read more

Their Malasadas are the best I have had in the area, every week, for years and years! The people that run the place treat you like family. No gimmicks or props, just a great selection of food at a fair price! read more

Great food good price consistency you won't be disappointed. Make sure you get some extra orange sauce

I must say I am impressed with their menu. My Place Restaurant is your typical "mom and pop" Portuguese Restaurant. Went here for brunch with my husband's BIG family. More than 15 people. Yep! That's Portuguese family for you. I am Filipino by the way. :) Anyway, I wasn't really hungry yet that time so I ordered a chicken and rice meal. The price says $10.50 so I thought to myself, "Hmmm, I'll get this since it's inexpensive." (Assuming it will be a small meal because it's only $10.50.) LO AND BEHOLD. They gave me a platter good for 4 people! Are you kidding me?! For $10.50 I got a meal that could feed me for the next 24 hrs. And IT WAS SO GOOD! Their chicken reminds me of Filipino's version of roasted chicken. It was really great! And their spicy sauce is great paired with it. Overall, experience was great! WILL DEFINITELY RECOMMEND this to friends and family! read more

My Place - Chicken and Rice meal $10.50 - Portuguese Near Me - New Bedford, Massachusetts

I stopped there on October 29, 2023. THEY NO LONGER MAKE MALASADAS. TOO BAD! THEY WERE THE BEST ! It was noon and the place was full of diners. And lots of takeouts. read more

Got takeout from my place, I got prego no prato. It was really good and reminded me of many meals that I had eaten in Portugal. No takeout option on grub hub for kale soup which I wanted to try but maybe another time. Overall great taste, portion size, and authenticity. read more

I had a very good sandwich with a side of boiled potatoes. They let you substitute healthier options instead of the French fries without an up charge. My first time and I will go back again if in the area. read more

Ok, so my sister and I are from North of Boston where authentic Portuguese food is found only in our dreams. On a recent visit to our Madrina's house, we decided to stop and bring her Portuguese takeout (Clearly, this was more to benefit us than her as she can purchase it at any time- I digress). We decided 'My Place' because it had good reviews on Yelp and they were not a Cash Only establishment (who does that nowadays?) The woman taking our takeout order was FANTASTIC! Super knowledgeable about the menu. She was very patient with us because, clearly, we were from out of town. We ordered the steak Kabob, Fried Cod Fish, Baked Cod Fish, Chorizo and Cod Fish Balls. The portions were huge! Although I am not used to picking out fish bones from my food, it was very tasty. We waited about 25-30 minutes for our takeout. They were very busy with a constant line to the door. At this time, we realized everyone was ordering some chicken that he cut with what looked like garden equipment. I told my sister when our food was done, we can purchase some of that chicken on the way out. Patrons were also enjoying their meals in their small but busy restaurant. Now, did I mention that Portuguese Pops are NOT FOUND NORTH OF BOSTON? It is sacrilegious for anyone to leave a Pop in a bread basket, but people were doing just this. They just do not realize how lucky they are to have this delicacy so close to home. My mouth watered as my eyes fixated on the abandoned rolls on the table. At this moment, my mind committed on purchasing some of these little critters when we picked up our meal. Finally! Our meal was done! Eagerly, I asked if we could purchase some POPs to accompany our dinners. I was told they could not be sold to us because they needed them for sandwiches. If you need them for sandwiches, then why are they given in little bread baskets on the tables. Heartbroken, I left disappointed and the entire ride through Boston, I still could not believe he wouldn't SELL me two rolls. read more

The food is always amazing the only problem I have is deciding what to order because everything is so good just a little hole in the wall place but once you stop in your hooked !and the fact that they deliver anywhere and the food arrives fast and hot great family run restraunt read more

One of the great places for true portuguese food. No fancy at all but modern and very clean. Hearty portions and friendly staff plus lots of takeout. read more

I would've given five stars but it was just slightly overcooked other than that excellent. Definitely ordering again.

Have only purchased "Malasadas" from My Place. You can get them with or without sugar on them. They are for sure the best malasadas around... (minus the grease). They are hot, very fluffy and filling. I would have given a 5 star but didn't because: even though they are delicious, they are way too greasy. The outside of the paper bag is always completely covered with seeped through grease. They probably need to find a way to drain them better, after they deep fry them. They do put that paper bag in a grocery plastic bag because of that. I would be nervous that the grease would seep through (if I had a new car)... so bring some kind of crate to put them in. The grease will also be on your counter (from the bag). So by the time you eat them, I'm sure most of the grease has seeped out. Price is also a bit steep ...... but its not like we go there every week... maybe every other month. But they are delicious ..... best in that town that I've found so far! read more

Everything was excellent: ribs, chicken, and the steak tips! Service was friendly. Will definitely be back.

One of my favorite places in the city! The food is amazing, fast and more importantly cheap! They also sell their hot sauce which me and my gf consume far to much of but I can't help but put it on everything. I eat food from here once a week for i don't know how long. Chicken fries and rice is synonymous with a great inexpensive meal between family and friends. Frango do churrasco is the best deal, better and cheaper than fast food. I never get sick of eating it. I love My Place and Drive there from the south end even though I'm only a few blocks away from a similar restaurant. 5 stars all day and when we can't decide on what to eat, it's chicken fries and rice. read more

OMG, THE BEST Malassadas of my life...nuff said...I cannot believe I donned a bikini after scoffing down one this morning. This place looks great for local eats as well. read more

The food is great and communication is extraordinary. I have an egg allergy and I am so happy that they paid attention to it and they wrote on the food haven't had any problems have had it been ordering here for several months now since we moved to the north end of New Bedford food is really good. read more

Food is sooo good ! And well prices, really nice small restaurant but it they should put more attention to the cleanliness especially the restrooms where kind of gross read more

We get delivery from here all the time, and I try to have something different often. Never have I not liked anything. Food is so flavorful, and portions are huge. I ended up ordering platters for my daughters birthday and everyone loved everything. Not to mention it was piping hot at the exact time scheduled for pick up. read more

Food is perfect...clean environment....I enjoyed the salad with french dressing chicken rice and grandma's pudding...

I love Portuguese food, so one day I walked in and right away I noticed that the place was falling apart. Everything is dirty. The floor, the Windows, and the walls. So I said to myself if all of these things are dirty I can imagine how dirty it must be behind the counter. Plus not to mention that there other restaurant down on Sawyer st was shut down by the board of health because they found the place with millions of roaches breeding in the restaurant. Warning ! Warning ! Stay away from these restaurants, they are both owned by the same owner ! Please, don't take my word for it. Walk in look around and eat there 4 hour old chicken parts that's been drying up under there heat lamp. Do you dare enter ? read more

Originally, my rating was a 5, but after my last experience, we bumped it down to a 4, not based on food, but based on delivery speed. More on that later. My best friend's mother had ordered from here many a time in the past, and he was a fan, so the group of us decided to try it one evening. Under instruction from his mom, we ordered a salad, a chicken with rice and ribs with fries. The salad was straight forward, lettuce, onions, cucumbers, tomatoes and olives. It came with Italian dressing on the side. We were originally disappointed since the sauce that normally comes with Portuguese chicken was missing, however their chicken is so incredibly moist and flavorful, you don't even miss it. Now they quite literally give you a whole chicken, so there's breast, thigh, wings, legs, neck, the whole shebang. The rice it comes with is so very flavorful, it's the traditional Portuguese yellow rice, and it's perfect just the way it is. The ribs were must larger than I'm used to, and had much more meat on them than the typical ribs you think of. They weren't fall off the bone, and instead reminded me of Fred Flinstone ribs that you really had to gnaw on, sounds somewhat bizarre, but they were tasty. Friday evening, we decided to order delivery from then again. They told us it would only be 15 minutes which made sense since that was about how long it took them the first time. 35 minutes later, the delivery man called me and asked me to clarify my address, then stated he would arrive in only 5 minutes. 15 minutes after that, he finally called again to say that he had gotten to my house. Now I totally understand if you had gotten lost or something, but the driver had a smart phone, and the restaurant is no more than 10 minutes from my house, so I'm not so sure how 15 minutes turned into just shy of an hour. The food still tasted wonderful, but only after we put it in the oven to reheat it since the chicken was room temperature and the fries were cold. This time, they included the yummy chicken sauce, but skipped the Italian dressing. Eh, ya win some, ya lose some. We'll definitely get food from here again, we just may have to go and pick it up ourselves to alleviate all the delivery issues. Anddddd if we pick it up, then we'll be able to get a legendary malasada to snack on while we wait. read more
