Black Cow is a popular restaurant that provides an excellent dining experience and is known for accommodating large groups. It recently served a party of 10, including an infant, on Mother’s Day. The menu features a variety of gluten-free options, and the staff is happy to customize orders. The new location has become a huge success. The food is wonderful, with standout dishes including muscles, sushi, steak tips, escargot, and apple-filled ravioli. The service is friendly and attentive, with some servers stepping ahead of requests. However, reviews note that staff can occasionally focus more on other tables. The restaurant is spotless and clean, with a private rooftop deck offering stunning views of Newburyport. On busy days like Easter, the staff manages crowds effectively, serving food quickly. The food is well prepared and presented, with appropriate serving sizes and reasonable prices. The dining environment can be very loud, especially in the main dining room, which may not be ideal for romantic conversations. Overall, Black Cow is a 5-star restaurant focused on excellent food, service, and atmosphere, and is a go-to place in Newburyport.
