“We come here frequently and I still don't think we eat here enough. Let's just say...their crab cakes and scallops are better than most of the places that “specialize” in those things. Their bookbinder soup, I eat at least one bowl every time I go and yesterday I had two of them. We love the management and staff...they are friendly, personable and who doesn't like being remembered as a frequent patron? Their management goes from table to table and makes you feel like you're eating in their home dining area. We have family events here and have brought friends with us. Probably one of the consistently phenomenal dining my wife and I have. I'd even go there to eat even if not gambling. It's that good. Don't take my word for it, see it for yourself.“

“There's not enough space in this box to say how great Don's Dock is. From the cutie atmosphere inside, great family staff and long-time staff, to the best seafood which is cooked perfectly every single time, you can't beat it! Drove 45 each way because, simply put, it was totally worth it!!“

“Amazing food. Great ambience Server was the only sour point. When I asked to describe the size of the salads he said one is bigger than the other. Also when I asked about the market specials, he stated it was just different than the original menu.“

“A great BIG Thank you to the staff at Club Casa. We had a funeral luncheon for my Mom there on 3/4/24. This was my second function upstairs in the banquet hall and this place never disappoints. It was obviously a difficult time for our family and booking the party with Olga and Kyle was so easy. On the day of the luncheon, the servers Dylan and Natalie and the bartender Don never missed a beat. They were friendly, there if anyone needed anything and always professional.Thank you again,The family of Delia Spizzirri“

“Honestly, this place was one of the best places i’ve eaten in a while. The interior of the restaurant is adorned beautifully in stunning paintings. The food was superb and tasted amazing. My favorite was the hot tea that was just the perfect taste and left me feeling satisfied.“

“First time eating here and it really hit the spot. Got the fish taco dinner, they nailed it. The frijoles were a little too salty, but salty beans isn't going to ruin a good 5 star rating. I definitely recommend eating here and I'll be coming back for sure.“
