Lived in this area all my life. This restaurant is relatively new to this area. It doesn't disappoint. My last two visits were greatly different. And, that was due to our server. The server a month ago couldn't have cared less about our visit. The latest server was Brandy. What a completely different experience. The food was perfect and the service as well. We're waiting on the next planned family outing.

What a gem! The warmed lobster roll was outstanding – generous chunks of sweet lobster lightly tossed in warm butter and served on a perfectly toasted, buttery roll. So rich, juicy, and flavorful… easily one of the best Connecticut-style lobster rolls I’ve had in Florida, and the portion was really generous.
Oysters were ice-cold, super fresh, and shucked perfectly, and the ahi tuna was bright, silky, and melted in your mouth.
Our server was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better. Combine that with the fun tiki vibe and those killer Skyway/water views, and it was a perfect meal.

We came by boat for a quick lunch. Maybe they were short staffed because, even though they weren't very busy, the service was terrible. Our server was Tim and he was nowhere to be found most of the time. The only time he came to our table was to take the order and to bring the check, and that was after we had to send another server to go find him. It took forever to get our drinks ( water and a coke) and our food. The other tables around us seemed frustrated as well. Our "quick" lunch ended up taking an hour and a half. At least the atmosphere is beautiful.

Service was slow but ok. I had fish & chips. The fish was overcooked and rubbery. Others had blackened mahi mahi (good flavor, small portion for the price), fried shrimp happy hour special (loved the dish and good qty), grouper taco happy hour special (good flavor, small portion, was more expensive than what it appeared on the menu, which was deceitful. Was listed as $12.99 (with small print saying $3 upcharge) - it should have just been listed with the other $15.99 items.)

Such a shame. Instead of raising prices Tiki Dock decided to make the beer smaller. 12 Oz? Really for $8.50. I used to love chilling at places and enjoy a relaxing time out with apps, dinner and a beer. My time of supporting overpriced food, and now deflated drink sizes so we can pay servers salaries so the establishment does not have too. I will BBQ and enjoy my family at home. Goodbye Tiki Docks.
