Had a very good flounder sandwich but without the bread. This was the one in Virginia Beach we watched the boats coming in and going out.
The she crab soup and crab cakes were 10/10. The only reason I dont give 5 stars is the fries were burnt and not great and the marg was not great. But swordfish was also very tasty and the server Claudia was excellent.

Dockside Seafood & Fishing Center is a restaurant known for its fast service and delicious food with generous servings. Families appreciate the kid-friendly amenities, such as color sheets and crayons for children. The outdoor seating is an option, equipped with heaters for chilly nights, and indoor seating is also available. The seafood is fresh, including popular dishes like crab cakes, oysters, and crab dip, which are highly recommended by customers. The she crab soup and swordfish are also tasty, and the hush puppies are amazing. The oysters are especially popular, often ordered in half-dozen portions, and the crab cakes are large, packed with meat, and free of fillers. The restaurant offers a marina view, with boats and ocean water adding to the pleasant dining experience, and features a store where guests can purchase raw seafood, swag, or memorabilia. A sunset happy hour with several seafood platters for $18 until 5:30 pm is a great deal. The restaurant is suitable for large groups and locals, providing a good atmosphere for enjoying seafood by the water. Service has been praised, but some visitors have noted occasional inconsistencies, such as slow service or unhelpful staff. Parking is generally easy to find.
