Great experience and highly recommended. The Food was brilliant, plated beautifully and tasted as good. The service was impeccable - extremely attentive and friendly. We needed to move from the inside section to outside to accommodate our pet after entrees - everyone was so accommodating, friendly, cleaned the tables and helped us. Great location with water views and ample parking.

We love everything about The Dock, especially the cauliflower. Great experience made all the better by our bubbly, energetic waiter. Unfortunately we didn't get her name but she had a long blonde ponytail and a real spring in her step. We'll be back!
