What an amazing restaurant Right on the water. We picked the perfect day, sunny skies and warm temps. Great views of the boats. We sat at the bar for lunch and enjoyed an aperol spritz. The food is excellent, we had seafood chowder, crab cakes, salad and fish and chips. All excellent. Our waitress and bartender was Lucia and she was helpful and friendly. Highly recommend!

Surprisingly good food and service at a picturesque location. Was surprised we could not be seated on the deck where the nicer views were found. There were 5 cleaned and empty tables that remained empty the duration of our lunch. Sitting inside is still nice and airy. Service was wonderful and food seemed inspired and creative. Well recommended!

We had a late New Years Eve lunch and it was awesome. We had the beet salad and the haddock stuffed with lobster and crabmeat. Beautiful dining room with an ocean view and excellent food and service - reasonably priced! It's nice to have a top notch restaurant open for lunch!

I make sure to stop at Dockside every time I'm in town. The food and atmosphere are excellent, but the service is on another level. Keith is the best bartender that I've ever come across. I wish I could just take him with me everywhere I go so that he could serve me drinks everywhere. What a specimen. Wow!

A really nice restaurant. Service was great and the food was very good. I got the steak & mashed potatoes. My family got fish and crab cakes and said they were very well made. My family is from rural Virginia so they love sea food.

Perfect meal after a long day of travel. The lobster was cooked perfectly and flavorful. The curry cous cous was new to me but delish! I will work to recreate this dish at home! The cocktails were tasty, fast seating on a Friday night, friendly and prompt service and reasonable prices for a yummy meal with a beautiful upscale atmosphere.
