Great old timey restaurant in beautiful Acushnet near the New Bedford line. Small bar (maybe 8 seats) is modern and looks newly updated; the dining room is vintage and homey.
Food is heavy on seafood but has a good assortment of steak and fowl too, also pizzas. Large portions, very fresh and well prepared. Not gourmet but not the 99 either. Very busy on the weekends, older, local crowd mostly so avoid the early bird timeframe.

Blue Point is a small local restaurant that does a pretty good job of serving up standard regional dishes. I always go with their French Meat Pie or their Baked Scrod which are both done well.

We were craving chowder and wanted to try somewhere new. After a quick google search, we headed here.
We came in by the bar side and sat ourselves in the dining room after a few minutes of standing there without being greeted. Perhaps we should have gone in the front door.
We were greeted about 10 minutes later with menus and our drink order was taken. After about another 10, maybe 15 minutes, our very basic drinks of iced tea and water w lemon arrived. Our order was taken, we both ordered the same, a bowl of chowder and a stuffed quahog. The waitress asked if we wanted it all together and we did.
We were brought some bread after our chowder arrived, sans quahogs. The chowder was delicious. I like mine a bit thicker/​creamier, but it was really great with lots of clams and bacon!
Our quahogs arrived after we had finished our chowder. They were just dropped off and I had to call out after our waitress for butter, hot sauce and a lemon wedge. These condiments are almost always a staple around here when a stuffed quahog is served. The quahog was good as well. Piping hot which was great. The stuffing was a bit bland for me but I like it spicy. They were certainly made in house though which was a plus.
The atmosphere is nice. Lots of old timers and working class folks around. It was very comfortable, clean and homey feeling.
Perhaps our service would have been better if we had spent more money. I’m not sure. We’ll probably go back for the food but better service would have had us hooked.

Food is always amazing and the staff is super friendly. This is my moms favorite restaurant so we are here frequently so its more like going to a friends house for dinner!

I have been here three times. Their steak is very yummy. There wings tasted like they weren’t fresh. I asker for them crispy and they weren’t. Service was very friendly. Average over all.

Blue Point is a staple in Acushnet MA. We have dined there many times and I would say the food is always fresh and tasty. The majority of the patrons tend to be in the 55+ age group. Fried seafood is good, portions are not huge, but are adequate. I do feel that the prices are a bit high for the portions that are plated.
But that’s just my opinion. Not my first choice in the area, but certainly not a bad spot.
3 stars.

Blue Point Restaurant is a house converted into a decently sized restaurant with a full bar. The reason why you won’t see many reviews on Unilocal is because the patronage is almost entirely retired people. The average age in the restaurant is probably going to be sixty, but don’t let that stop you from coming here.
We were seated quickly and waited on immediately. The menu is fairly diverse with a fried section, a sandwich (hamburger derivatives) section, a pizza section, a handful of seafood items, and a couple of meat pies. Lunch is about 20% cheaper than dinner for many items (except pizzas.)
I had one of their seasonal specials, the Bourbon Salmon with a baked potato and broccoli. The salmon wasn’t flavorful, and I felt it was slightly overcooked and dry. The broccoli was minute, and the baked potato could’ve been softer, but overall I was OK with my experience here.
The service is AOK and the staff is fairly attentive. We were also given a slice of cake and was not charged for it because it was a friend’s birthday.
Bear in mind that they are not used to credit cards (due people of older ages preferring cash) so you will need to signal someone to charge your card. It took them quite a long time for them to pick up my credit card (my girlfriend actually had to signal someone) but I understand that the vast majority of patrons probably leave cash and walk out.

I’ve heard of the Blue Point Restaurant before, and I’m surprised it hasn’t been reviewed yet. First off, it’s somewhat hard to find if you don’t realize the sign front the place is on the street, but not in front of the place.
The very warm wall colors and beautiful wood floors invite you into the Blue Point when you walk in. The bar, full of, uhm. the elderly, is unique (old bottles as nice hanging light fixtures) and full. The TV set is a nice detail too. When I saw the dining room, I was actually kinda disappointed because, although cute, it was a bit small. The small tables weren’t on top of each other.
The older, and indulgently polite waitress (I loved her hair) was quick and took our order briefly. The menu was okay. I didn’t entirely know that it was a mainly seafood place, but the menu seemed pretty extensive, even throwing in some meat and pasta dishes. Me and my father made the plain, yet of course respectable decision of getting Fish and Chips. A large (it comes in large, small, and lunch sizes) fish and chips was only $ 9.99, so that was a pretty good deal.
Along with the complimentary, and delicious, rolls and cornbread, we ordered ourselves a cup of chowder. The chowder was possibly some of the best I’ve ever had. There was not only creamy, but it had this flavor that I honestly can not put my finger on. It was just irresistible.
The fish and chips came out really quick, but it didn’t look like a lot of food. The fries were fries, and the two pieces of fish (which started to look gigantic as I could barely finish the first one) were actually pretty good. The batter was somewhat disagreeable, but nonetheless fine.
I was stuffed, but when your in a restaurant, you don’t know what stuffed is. The lengthy dessert menu, explained all by the waitress; I thought it was sort of weird they didn’t have a menu for it; sounded pretty nice. My father got an apple-​raspberry crisp (looked awesome) while I got the chocolate cake. Both were topped with vanilla ice cream. Let’s just say I didn’t finish the whole thing.
The Blue Point restaurant is cozy spot right off of New Bedford that is really nice. I actually liked it: isn’t that good enough? C’mon: Chocolate Cake.
