Ashly or i think that was her name was a great server
If you are an adult who can't eat seafood then try somewhere else. This restaurant doesn't even offer chicken tenders. Try Waterfrontoo tor the ribs.
Always love the Grouper at Dockside. Our waitress, Kylie Bowman, made the dining experience a wonderful experience! Well done Kylie; keep up the great customer service!!
The staff works hard and the Lazy floor managers do nothing to help. The general manager is not a leader. The shrimp hard as a rock. The chicken was so thin and watery. 34$ for crappy Crab cakes. This place only Rips off Tourists. Great View of a high rise next door. No music playing. Just pumping crappy food. Rant over. Never will go Back. Cheers. N Port Fla.

Food was awesome. Lobster bisque was so creamy and full of chunks of lobster. Wish I could have had a gallon of it.
Linguini and clam sauce was a table favorite too. Just the right amount of garlic to make this dish oh so good.
Parking: Right on the water and at night there are underwater green lights that attract tons of fish.

The food was horrible! We ordered lobster tail which tasted as if it had been water logged and lost all its flavor and tasted more like eating an eraser. The rest was barely warm. My boys ordered pasta it's clearly from a bag. The bacon wrapped scallops were so overcooked it was barely edible. Will never go here again! The waitress was fine and the environment looked as if it would be an amazing place for drinks and food... unfortunately we were horribly disappointed.

Great atmosphere, really enjoyed the view from inside. Food is mediocre and higher priced for the quality. Both lobster roll and grouper sandwich came out dry.

It's all about the atmosphere here. The server was wonderful. The drinks were great but the food was just OK. I honestly won't go back.

I ordered blackened Grouper bites for lunch. Grouper in southwest FL should be great. Mine was overcooked and had little flavor.

We went there based on postings we saw about happy hour. The bartender was not very excited to talk about the happy hour specials, in fact was kind of grumpy. We did not stay for dinner since we were underwhelmed by the music and tension behind the bar.
