Customer Reviews
Riviera Dunes Dockside../ yacht broker location. With a promising outside and outdoor seating area with an appealing marina full of luxurious boats and numerous piers, the atmosphere was everything, but the food appeal was inadequate. A menu with a vast variety of seafood options was appealing at first but the flavor on all dishes ordered was not present. Out of my party of 5, and all dishes ordered, only about half of the dishes were eaten completely. The shrimp and scallop scampi had underdone pasta with overdone scallop and almost no shrimp and the scampi sauce was broken. The fish and chips were extremely oily and the fish was overly silky. The crab cakes with mashed potatoes and fries were overly fishy and out of the 2 on the plate, 1/2 of one was enough.. The burger was and sala
Tucked away on the back side of building facing dock. Not a pretty view of the water or skyline. Great view of a bunch of fishing boats and day cruisers if you enjoy that. Food was generally good. Not fantastic. Solidly average that you would expect with no let downs, but very overpriced for what it is. Tourist pricing.
We had dinner last week and my wife and 2 other guests didn't have any issues with their dinner, however my Fish and Chips had extremely soggy breading with no seasoning. I would have sent it back, but our guests were buying us dinner. Everyone agreed the service was extremely slow and kinda ruined the experience. Also, the women commented the ladies restroom was very dirty and disgusting
Overall, my experience at Riviera Dunes - Dockside was good. The restaurant itself was relatively quiet, we were all able to have a conversation without shouting at each other. The food was good, I got the Mahi Mahi salad. The salad, despite being beautifully plated, had very intensely sweet dressing and an unfortunately overcooked fish fillet. I loved the taste of the fish, but the texture was tough and the fish was a little dry.
My wife and I went here for lunch today and the food and service was amazing. I ordered the dockside seafood bowl and it had more seafood than I would have expected which was awesome. My wife ordered the skillet and loved every bit. We will definitely be back.
