I've have always loved Dock's and though it may not be what I remembered, I'm pleased with the service and the food. Of course this is the location on 35th and Prairie.

DELICIOUS!!! My 1st time eating Docks and everything was on point, so much flavor. Our fishwich was crispy and hot, the bread was soft and the fries were hot and crispy as well. So glad we stopped in on our way home.

I live in Bronzeville here in Chicago. When the pandemic arrived we had to stop going outside and could not use the store in the beginning. But as time went on Dock's started using DoorDash and we were able to get our favorite fish from them and what a blessing that was. Dock's never fails to give you fresh fish all the time and I remember the taste of the fish and the Dockberry shakes....nothing has changed except the locations. I remember the Dock's on 87th and the Dan Ryan and would always go there and then everybody in the neighborhood lined up outside their door when they opened here in Bronzeville. I am so glad I stuck with them during the pandemic cause I did not want to give up that wonderful fish I had come to know and love. Hope this helps.

When I go to Docks it's has more sentimental meaning then anything, especially on 35th street. My grandmother use to take me to Docks every Friday for the famous fishwish meal with the amazing docknerry shake. Never been disappointed..till last evening. I was so happy about the fact that not only black owned but that it was brought back to the now in Bronzeville. This my first time coming but last night was totally different. The fishwich was totally all over the place. Wasn't the amazing put together sandwich as before. What did you guys do to the fries? These crispy battered fries were the worse. What happened to the crinkles cut regular fries?? Please bring the ole fries back and give a little More loving to the famous fishwish!!!

They say imitation is the greatest form of flattery but it's really shameful to see people hijack a history of a restaurant they did not create to make a profit. The food isn't even as good. I can not recommend this restaurant to anyone. Any real Dock's patron from the old years should not support this when no recognition of the original black founder has ever even been recognized or noted. Really appalling to say the least. If you frequent this place just know that this it in no way shape or form the original in values, quality and history and is in no affiliation to the family and the founder.

Grew up on Docks as a special weekend dinner treat from my parents, moved out this way and was thrilled to see Docks is still around. Got Docks for Good Friday and the fish was well seasoned and fried right! I ordered online for pick up using the Yelp app, and from reading the reviews and seeing the amount of people waiting when I got there was happy I ordered ahead.

Delicious and fast! So glad to have ability to order ahead. Had the jr fishwich, and partner had the fish and chips. All good! Yummy dockberry shakes, banana pudding and red velvet cake. Will be back soon!
I ordered from grub hub. The sandwich was cold, my child's wing dinner was cold as well. Went to warm it up but he didn't eat it, i tasted a wing and it taste like they fried it in old grease. I'll stick with the original docks on 87th.

I really enjoyed my fishwich which was on special on a Wednesday, it was so good. The bread was a bit heavy but other than that the walleye was great. I can't wait to go back, it's right around the corner from my place. The food came up fast and fresh. The staff was helpful as I had never been there before.

The fries were cold, shrimps were not fresh. Slow service. Considering this is one of a few Dock's in the city, I expected more.

The fishwich was delicious! I ordered it with cheese and fried hard and they made it to perfection. Everything was piping hot and fresh out of the grease. The deep sea nuggets were breaded just right and a good amount of food for the price. The ladies working were very cordial and made sure I had everything that I needed. When I come back home again to visit I will definitely come back to Dock's!

This place has the best fish dinners!! The breading is always so flavorful and crispy. Comes super hot and fresh even when ordering delivery. The wait is over an hour, but it's well worth it.
