Gilligan's Seafood Restaurant- At the Dock

Every time we go down by this restaurant we got to stop and eat. We love all of the food. We haven't ordered anything we have not loved yet. My son loves the endless shrimp platter.
Love that it's right on the water. We enjoy watching all the boats going by. And they have a dock if you're on a boat and get hungry. Always great people there.

We had a great time the atmosphere was great down next to the river and the food was absolutely excellent. I personally had the all you can eat shrimp and it was fabulous the seasoning on the grilled shrimp was great and on the broiled shrimp was even better than that. Those were my favorite. The fried shrimp was fantastic. My sister-in-law she had the blackened honey salmon oh my word it was so good.

Service and food was very good. Prices are a bit high for the amount of food you receive. Some dishes from the same section of menu comes with sides while others don't. A bit cofusing.

The waitress was very sweet friendly and professional she took good care of me and the oysters were nice and fresh delicious thank you 😋

This was the former Dock restaurant. My husband and I used to eat here 50 years ago when we were dating. We enjoyed the food and reminiscing about our younger years. Staff was very accommodating especially with our three grandchildren.

We got the all you can eat shrimp on Friday. They give you so much on the first plate that we only needed one plate. The food was great!

We were seated quickly though the hostess seating us made a disparaging remark about the waitress wouldn't like it but oh well. They were moderatly busy, 10 tables at the most. The restaurant was really really warm inside almost as if the A/C was not working. We ordered 2 bar drinks, 2 appetizers and our dinners. Took a minute but the waitress brought the waters. About 15 minutes later we got our appetizers but still no bar drinks. Excuse was the bartender was really busy and would get to them. The waitress then brought my mixed drink out, bloody Mary but not my husband's an old fashioned. We were able to finish the appetizers and still my husband's drink had not arrived. We canceled the drink and he got a soft drink. Drinks were not refilled or offered to be at anytime during dinner. Our dinners arrived. My husband got the AYCE shrimp. I got the fried platter. I had to wait on my second side, the grilled asparagus. My platter was too consist of fish, shrimp and fried oysters. I got 4 PIECES and I mean pieces of oysters and 1 full oyster on my plate. The 4 pieces were no bigger than a nickel and the full oyster maybe a quarter. I boxed up nearly the entire plate to take home and didn't even eat. Very very disappointing as when I came in the past I loved this plate for the variety for one but that you got an even share really of each, fish shrimp and oysters. Seeing as this supposed to be a birthday date. Really disappointing. I took the time to choose where I wanted to go and it was lacking from the minute I walked in the door, I should have said nope right then.

Horrible experience!
Sat outside, 1st - why is there NO MUSiC playing?? Would be /could be a very nice atmosphere if there was some music.. along the river.

Everything was wrong with dinner.
1) ordered two WATERMELON FROZES. Took FOREVER to come out, got both our apps (each ordered at different times) before the drinks… only to find out my FROZE isn’t actually FROZEN?! I definitely would not have ordered those if I knew that. They were horrible! Even asked the server if they were supposed to be frozen.. and she said no…
2) chicken piccata was very bland. Had absolutely no flavor!
3) the Gilligan’s Stew… NO FLAVOR! there was absolutely no seasoning on it. The corn was undercooked and near white in color. Whatever seasoning was on the stew was on the shell of the shrimp… which I was not aware was “peel and eat”.. that needs to be listed on the menu.. so I had to go digging in my food to remove the shells/tails… which was the only thing that had seasoning on it.. seemingly as an after thought. And once that was done, there was no flavor to go with the food. It was on my fingers and on the shell. And by the time I was done cleaning the shrimp I was so unappetized and everyone else was done and unpleased with their food.. I boxed it up and we left.

Upside - I was able to actually cook the stew n a ton of butter and garlic, and actual seasoning at home and finally eat my dinner. It was good when I had to cook my restaurant made dinner….
