- WBwillie brown4 days ago4.01st time eating there and i will be back for sure
- MGMary GiuntiNov 15, 20255.0It was great food with a small town atmosphere...
- MAMike AnnettNov 13, 20253.0Dockside is not what it use to be. The restaurant no longer offers a combination seafood platter with flounder, scallops, shrimp or oysters, and crab cakes. A seafood restaurant that doesnt offer a combination seafood platter at a reasonable price ... becomes less! I ordered a crab cake sandwich with one side of potato salad = $50 with tip. You decide! I'm a old timer that parked on the sand at the Duck Inn .
- ISIris SommerNov 12, 20255.0Ein wunderschöner Ort zum Essen und Genießen, steht bei meiner nächsten Reise wieder auf dem Plan
- SGSean GallagherNov 5, 20253.0Better if you like seafood as the non-seafood options are limited. I had Chicken Alfredo - plenty of it on penne pasta (wrong type of pasta for the dish, if you ask me) and it was meh. Plenty of chicken but not much taste to the sauce. But what was tasty was the hush puppys. I should have made them my lunch - very tasty. The 3-seafood dish my wife had she thought was very tasty. But I'd have to say that over $80 (incl tax and tip) seems a bit high for two people for lunch with no alcohol.
