Dockside Waterfront Grill offers a lovely atmosphere with a Tiki Hut and beautiful views, making it a great spot for a relaxing lunch or dinner. The grouper sandwich and potato chips are popular menu items, and many customers love the Grouper. The salads with added protein are tasty, and the lobster bisque is praised for being creamy and full of lobster chunks. The linguini and clam sauce is also a favorite, with just the right amount of garlic. While the fish camp chowder has mixed reviews—some find it similar to tomato stew, while others enjoy its flavor—the staff is friendly and accommodating. Excellent service from staff like Terra and Kylie enhances the dining experience. The restaurant is right on the water, and at night, underwater green lights attract lots of fish. Reservations are recommended, especially on busy nights, and customers appreciate the easy waitlist system with text updates. Overall, it’s a popular spot with good food, great views, and attentive service.
