Dock & Paddle @ Como Lakeside Pavilion

View was fantastic, go when it's nice outside.

Food was just fine, touch more expensive that it should be though. $18 for a few small pieces of fish with a handful of fries is a bit much. The fish were well fried and the tartar sauce was nice, but the fries were below what is make myself from frozen at home.

Will definitely go back again after

Looking here to get some lunch, but sadly, lunch didn’t start until 11 A.M. The Manager was working and he was a very nice guy. They are planning on being open weekends during the winter season and the menu was really cool. I’m excited to come back here.

Service was fantastic, food was meh. Great craft beer selection. Needs a serious scrubbing/cleaning.

8:20 and the kitchen was closed during the State Band show. 40 minutes before closing.

Premium pricing abysmal quality.
Came here for lunch. We got the Bean Burger and Fish and chips.
We live in the area and we have been meaning to visit for a while when we had the chance for a lunch date with my husband.
We were so disappointed. First THE BEAN BURGER is flavorless they put avocado and some fancy pickled onions but it didn't do justice to it. How can you mess up a burger?
Secondly my husband ordered the Fish n Chips, the fish was way overcooked and our fries were saggy. Clearly frozen.
For the owners: please taste your own food and do product tasting. Remember you are also carrying the reputation of our lake como area. Be better.

wildly mediocre and ridiculously overpriced food. the location is nice and the lakeside view is beautiful but not worth grabbing a bite.

Not sure what the people that give the place low food ratings are expecting - it's a Lancer Group facility, so it's a food service level food with captive audience pricing place. So in that regard, it's decent food. Fish tacos are good, as is the barbecue jackfruit sandwich.

The vibe is very relaxed if there isn't an event going on and grabbing a seat in the pavilion is easy. To be honest, you're coming for the views and the space, not the food. So grab a couple tacos to split with someone, grab a seat out on the pavilion and just enjoy the views and the breeze.

Al Pastor Tacos were wonderful

Probably a 3.5. So Dock & Paddle has an amazing location along Como Lake in Como Park, nevertheless I was disappointed. My chicken Tinga tacos were not good. The strawberry salad was better, but I expected more. We were not able to sit in the pavilion due to a private event. My guess is that I would have moved it closer to a 3.7 if we had sat there. As a food destination it is not strong, but maybe that is ok if all you are looking for is a nice view of the lake on a lovely summer evening.

The chicken items on the menu are awesome! Whatever seasoning they use makes it incredible good. The chips are better than French fries in my opinion because they’re handmade.
The seating outside is great and the lake is just nice to look at, especially on warm days.

It’s really underperforming. Been here a lot and sadly every time the food takes forever and is lackluster. Well below mid.

They need to get rid of the pagers and be up front about the half hour it takes to make a small strawberry salad that comes looking like there is a shortage of all the ingredients that make it taste good. 🙄.

Same with the tacos and the nachos appetizer. Ugh.

Went on a music in the park night and it took so long that we missed most of the music. Ugh.

Does this place go out of their way to hire rude, unhelpful people?
It is a beautiful spot for nostalgic reverie that is spoiled by rude employees.
