Davidson's Dockside Restaurant

Great marina view, great chicken and waffles breakfast. Bring Splenda with you if you like Splenda.

very dirty! I went today only because there is outside seating.

The grouper sliders are so delicious! I get them everytime I go. Dining on the dock is nice until the bugs bite. They should have citronella lanterns or something to keep bugs away.

Having to give a star was the topping on the cake, I get it in today’s society no one wants to work. We arrived at 8:45am not busy about 3 tables sat, we waited about 20 min to for someone to acknowledge us standing there; the busser said to sit anywhere so we grabbed our own menus and sat down. I was told our server would be right with us. 45 min later still no one came to help us, we watched them stock styrofoam cups seat other people, mind you we were sitting by the front door couldn’t miss us! So finally we are walking out, the lady says to us they are getting your drinks for you now, I politely say no thank you we are going somewhere else.Do not recommend this place food is mediocre, service is slow if any.

This was not quite the dining experience my husband and I had expected, based on a recommendation from someone. The restaurant was quite plain and crowded. Luckily there was seating on a covered dock. Our server was probably the highlight, very friendly and attentive. Both my husband and I ordered the grouper, which was very good. However, the two sides that accompanied the entree were totally bland, with no seasoning. Considering the quality of our meals, they were totally overpriced! I feel certain that if we're in the area again, we'll dine at a different restaurant.

Just left there and the food was very good. The staff is phenomenal. It must be a great place to work because everyone there is happy, cheerful and courteous. I will definitely make a return visit.

Last night we ate at Davidson's, we have eaten there for years and it has always been excellent. Last night it was not up to par. The fried shrimp was chewy, the batter was heavy even the cocktail sauce was not good. The blow flies were everywhere, which made it difficult to enjoy our meal. The only positive is our server was very good. I don't know if they are under new management, new cook but the staff is not the same. It will be awhile before we go back. We eat at Davidson's at least every 2 weeks.

Went with the family and we really like the food. We will be coming back with friends to enjoy more. Pictures are for Cuban Sandwich, Fish and chips, Grouper Sandwich with battered onion rings.

The food is simply amazing as well the service here went Fri night to celebrate our 3 year anniversary and let me tell the fish and chips was amazing as well as the conch fritters and crab cakes.

Something ha happened to Davidson's and we will not be back....ever. The food and service used to be good. We live walking distance and this was one of our favorite places. In the last 3 months the food has become horrible and the service is no better. If you want something that tastes even remotely decent, or to be able to address poor food and poor service then steer clear. None of those things exist here.

Had dinner there on Wednesday. 2 in our party had the all you can eat fish. It was great. I had the grouper dinner. Best grouper dinner. Service was great!!

Very good service, nice but still casual and comfortable atmosphere, clean look and layout, and not too long of a wait time. The food was amazing, good size portions, great flavor and looked and smelled good. In the picture there is the white fish meal and the taco meal, sorry but I do not remember the actual names. I will admit the white fish meal was a little on the oily side, but that was to be somewhat expected with that kind of meal. Overall, really good place, not too bad price and great atmosphere.

My 14 yr old son and I had a nice guys night out. Peeled shrimp were fantastic. He ate the buttered noodles (not a fish person). I will say fish spread was too salty but not so that I would effect the rating..but that was my taste buds.

good good and friendly staff

This restaurant had excellent wings and we also had the Gulf shrimp appetizer. We had salads. Salad was excellent as well. Service was a little slow. Many people were waiting a long time to be acknowledged by the hostess and a couple even left as a result of not being spoken to or seated. My mother and I were seated relatively quickly. The restaurant is what you would call a dive bar, in my opinion. However, as you may know, this is the type of place you can find the best food. I feel like they stretched their staff too thin OR their staff does not work as a well-oiled machine at this time. Our waitress was sweet but was struggling, and she had to get our beers because the bartender never poured them. It took a long time to get refills. It is NOT a fancy restaurant, it's a place to hit after a day on the beach and you can show up in flip flops. I would have returned if I hadn't fallen in love with Morgan Mae's the next evening and that was where we went. Building is run down, you can tell the locals love it. I would go back for a special, as they have all you can eat Fish and Chips a couple days a week, 50 cent wings, etc.
