First time at The Dock and from start to finish it was fabulous! We were quoted 40 minutes for a wait so after 45 we inquired on where we were on the list. The hosts were honest and informed us they slowed seating down to keep the kitchen from getting g backed up. Thank you for the honesty!! 10 min later we were sat. Jamie our server was a delight, friendly and efficient. We appreciated her whit. Three of us had the fried grouper special. We all raved onthe freshness and light coating. We wish it was a permanent menu item. The Dock is definitely worth the wait

Had a wonderful lunch and tropical martini. It was a cloudy day, but the food and service made it a brighter. Could see dolphins from the deck too. Great place.

This place is absolutely the best food I have had in a very very long time. The view sitting outside during sunset is to die for, their staff are super friendly and professional. The food is by far the shining star though!! ...

Our waiter, he was great: Very personable and helpful. Our food runner (must have been new) nearly dropped our entire tray of food and the bar tender saved her from disaster on her way over to us. Then, she dropped our daughter's plate on the floor in front of us! Oops! When her burger was reentered, they forgot and almost charged us twice for the meal. Our waiter was quick to correct the issue and we were on our way. Food was delicious and the view was beautiful from dockside. Would eat here again!
