Two stars because our first experience was absolutely wonderful. However, after this experience I’m not sure if we’ll ever return. We were looking forward to a nice evening at the Marina with the family. Eating dinner and then letting the kids hangout at the beach. After our drink orders were taken we were consistently ignored until we grabbed our waitresses attention. She tried explaining that they were so busy and the kitchen was at a stop and we replied that we hadn’t even had our order taken yet. Mind you we had been sitting there for 30 minutes already. So we couldn’t place an order because the kitchen told them to quit taking orders. On top of that this was not communicated to us at all. First of all what kind of restaurant even does that?! So now we’re 25 minutes from town, everyone is hungry and the kids are disappointed and upset because now we have to leave to go somewhere else. Sorry but this isn’t how to run business and like I said before, I’ll be hesitant to ever return which is really unfortunate. I will say the manager took care of our drinks for us which was appreciated but not sure it makes up for the lack of service otherwise.
If you're looking for a casual dining experience that will absolutely blow your socks off, then look no further! We just had the most incredible meal at this absolute gem of a restaurant, Bella Dockside.
Let's start with the pizza. Oh. My. Goodness. I can honestly say, without a shadow of a doubt, that it was the best pizza we have ever had in our entire lives! The crust was that perfect balance of chewy and crispy, the sauce was bursting with fresh, vibrant flavors, and the toppings? Pure heaven! Every single bite was an explosion of deliciousness.
And then there was the Jamacon Burger. Cooked absolutely perfectly – juicy, tender, and seasoned to absolute perfection. The combination of flavors was out of this world!
Not to be outdone, the chicken sandwich was also an absolute triumph! The chicken was so tender and flavorful, the breading was crispy and light, and the toppings were the perfect complement. It was simply amazing!
But the incredible food was only half the story. The service we received was extraordinary! Our waitress was an absolute delight – so friendly, welcoming, and attentive. She made us feel like valued guests from the moment we walked in the door. Her genuine warmth and enthusiasm truly elevated the entire experience.
Honestly, I cannot recommend Bella Dockside @ Turkey Creek Marina, highly enough.
If you're looking for phenomenal food, exceptional service, and an all-around fantastic dining experience, then you absolutely HAVE to try this place. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.
We are already planning our next visit! Five stars just isn't enough – this place deserves ten! Enjoy!

We were staying at a nearby Airbnb and found this to be the only dining less than 25 minutes away. Don’t let the fact that it’s so isolated fool you. The food and service are excellent. We did carry out one night and dined in one night. Within our group we had a cheeseburger, sriracha chicken tacos, chicken strips, wings, fried ravioli and a chef salad. Everything was so good. We also had cheesecake, which was very good, but the tuxedo cake was absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend Bella Dockside.
These days it is hard to find good service and staff that take pride in their employment. HOWEVER, this is NOT the case at Bella Dockside. The entire staff was polite, hard at work, and took time to give recommendations and answer all our questions. My husband and his buddy went for beer and wings on Friday afternoon. These 2 were so impressed with the wings and they let everyone know it. By Saturday morning we had a group of 25-30 people ready to travel from Brownsville/Leatherwood area to try it out. We were all very impressed and will 100% be back. I am pretty sure we tried everything on the menu and all of it was amazing. The Jammin' Burger is the best burger I have ever had SERIOUSLY! Sriracha Chicken Tacos delicious! Fried Ravioli ordered one batch ate them and had to order 2 more. Wings largest and best on the lake! Food and staff is top of the line! WE WILL BE BACK!
Great friendly staff. wings were the Best! pork rinds delicious. no complaints. Will definitely go back.
