★★★★★ 5.0 Jennifer Vahey · Sep 2025

Absolutely fantastic place, my husband and I came here for lunch and wanted to sit on the patio. Unfortunately there was no room as they had a few big tables. Not a big deal, inside was just as welcoming. We had the loaded taco fries and the el pastor burger. Fries were season perfectly and the burger was great although a little messy. Lol. The high light was my loaded fries, omg so yummy had to stop eating them cause the portion size was very big. Our server Makyla was great and was very attentive. I've heard how good it is here and finally had time to try it. We will definitely be back!! Good job dockside!!

This is a popular location close to cruises. If you are coming at a busy time, you might as well go somewhere else. We came and left, returning after the cruise when the restaurant wasn't busy. The food we ordered was good, the Greek salad had a dressing resembling one for the Cesar salad. Grilled chicken was pretty small for $7, but overall, it wasn't bad.

Convenient Location, But Disappointing Food and Service Stopped by this restaurant after our excursion cruise, mainly because of its close proximity to the dock and its obvious popularity with tourists. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t live up to the buzz. We ordered the fish and chips, hoping for a classic, satisfying meal. What we got was a plate of overly oily fish with a heavy batter that overwhelmed any natural flavor. The chips were just okay — not crispy or seasoned enough to stand out. It felt like the food was more about speed and volume than quality. Service was equally underwhelming. The staff seemed disinterested and stretched thin, with long waits for both ordering and the check. There was very little engagement or warmth, and it felt like we were just another group to

As a french, I was so happy to finally be able to eat some greens. The greek salad was very good ! (A suggestion to improve it : add more tomatos and green pepper with olive oil ! 🤌🏻) The upside down ice cream cone was kind of unexpected but tasty ! Special thanks to our waitress, very kind and polite, it was a pleasure to meet her. Nevertheless, it was quite long to finally eat (around 30 minutes) and we ate at 4pm (so not many people at the moment). I recommand this restaurant !

The food was amazing and tasted very good; it's just that the portion was not very large for the amount of dollars you pay. Overall great restaurant!
