Dockside Restaurant & Tiki Bar

We went here for the ugly sweater Mashup band event. I signed in online to reserve a table a we drove over. There was no way to pick when reserving online any type of requests for seating. So we were seated in a different room from the band which was a main reason we went. We ordered their very tasty hush puppies as an appetizer. They did not disappoint! For the main course my GF got a salad which was good as well. I ordered ten wings asking the staff if I needed to order them extra crispy as I like them crispy. They said probably not but wrote crispy down anyways. The wings were chewy and rubbery. I was only able to eat 2. I brought the rest home and further cooked them in the oven. Still rubbery and not enjoyable at all. The flavor was great but no matter if the wings aren't great. The l

Great location, vibes, food and entertainment!! Definitely plan on returning and trying more items from menu. Burgers were delish and others really like the pizza. The GM informed us they were under-staffed, but overall the service was good. Looking forward to our next visit.

Dockside Tiki Bar is a vibe. Margaritas? Yes, please. Orange crush? Eh… gave me more “Tang in a cup” than “fresh-squeezed sunshine,” but we survived. The shrimp and crab legs hit the spot, and if you like your dinner with a side of loud laughter and music, sit at the bar. Want to actually hear the person next to you? Head to the dining area. Outside seating is a win for the views. A fun little “you gotta stop here at least once” spot when visiting Colonial Beach, VA.

Fun Beach Vibes, Great Setting — But Pricey Food Dockside Restaurant is definitely a cool beachside spot with a unique vibe. The seating made from boats is such a fun touch, and the whole place has that laid-back, tropical feel with lots of palm trees and ocean breeze. It’s a great place to snap a few beach getaway photos and enjoy the scenery. The drinks are well-priced and refreshing, which made for a relaxing afternoon. The food was decent, but the prices were definitely on the higher side for what you get. You're really paying for the atmosphere here more than anything. Overall, it's a fun place to visit once in a while if you're in the area and want to enjoy the beachy setting and a cold drink.

Great comfort food on a rainy dreary night. Watching folks Wii bowl was entertaining. Always great food, service and atmosphere.
