★★★★☆ 4.0 Karitas Mitrogogos · Feb 2026

When I'm in the area I always enjoy this restaurant/bar. The location is great and last summer I enjoyed both the restaurant and the outdoor bar that on my yesterday's visit exubed frozen winter vibes! So, this time I and a friend enjoyed the indoor bar which was fun too .. with friendly and joyful camaraderie amongst staff & visitors. We had drinks & ... appetizers that were tasty ... and ... the service was great & prompt. 👍🙂👍

This establishment is conveniently situated on the waterfront. My selection of this restaurant was predicated on the accessibility for patrons arriving via personal watercraft. The availability of docking facilities for boat travelers was a key consideration. "On The Dock" offers two dedicated boat slips, B2 and B4, also bulkheaded. In addition to the appealing water views, the restaurant provides a positive dining experience with satisfactory cuisine and a helpful, friendly staff, as evidenced by my inquiry regarding docking arrangements.

My inlaws took my wife & I here for dinner here tonight. Beautiful restaurant. Great menu options. Delicious food. Excellent service from our waitress Jessica. My wife kept raving about the short ribs & flourless chocolate cake. She shared with all of us and both are 5 STAR items we highly recommend trying. *Appreciate the fact restaurant music wasn't blasting Truly enjoyed our dining experience & will most definitely come back.

Went out East to spend the day and picked this restaurant on the water. What a pleasant surprise! The outside deck had a nice view of the harbor. The food was amazing...perfectly cooked and delicious. The wait staff was impeccable and knew what true food service was, with our waitress, Paula, paying attention to every detail. I definitely recommend this restaurant and I will be going back for a long time to come. Congratulations to the owner and staff of this hidden gem!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Thomas Wang (tomtom) · Oct 2025

My family and I had high hopes for this place, drawn in by it's great location on the docks. It has tons of parking and a really nice view from the back deck. The vibe inside is great, but that's when the best part of the experience ended. The service was good, the food was the real issue. You'd think a place called "on the docks" would have amazing fresh seafood. But it wasn't th case. The raw clams were good, but the oysters and mussels were definitely not fresh. The wings were maybe the biggest puzzle. We were there right when they opened, but the wings were so tough it seemed like they were just leftovers that got thrown back in the fryer. The only saving grace was the mock-grita, which was delicious. We really wanted to love the place, but the food just didn't deliver.
