Came here last minute right before the dinner traffic hit and we were easily able to be seated for 3 people. We had the option of going up to the second level (which had a condensed menu compared to the main level), staying on the main level, out on the patio, or rooftop. We chose to stay on the main level since it was my first time there and I didn’t want to be limited to options.
The place was very spacious while decorated beautifully. It perfectly fit a nice dinner setting with a view while also functioning as a sports bar. They had garage windows that opened up on nice days that I really liked.
There were so many things on the menu that I wanted to try and I couldn’t narrow it down so I had our server pick for me. I ended up getting the fish tacos that weren’t too bad. The filling tasted great but the fish was a little too big for the taco and ended up being too soggy after eating the first one (of three). We also ordered the Bang Bang shrimp and the flavoring tasted good, but the shrimp was just a bit too chewy. The Lobster Mac & Cheese was good and so was the burger.
Overall it wasn’t too bad but I just think I ordered the wrong items on the menu. I would love to come back and try something else that looked good.
The only other thing is that for such a large building that can seat a lot of people, the parking sucks. There is not much parking available at all and half of what is available is reserved for valet. The restaurant is dockside and located by the marina so it’s hidden all the way in the back from the road as well.

This place is a gem! The food was great, flavorful and delicious!! All the other places in town looked packed so we were worried we would have a long wait time. But to our surprise we didn’t. The building is just really cool. We’d love to find ourselves near by again so we can try more things. We can definitely vouch for the Ruben, jalapeño burger, chips and Mac & cheese though.

My wife and I stopped in to finally check out Zefs Dockside after lots of recommendations.
Plenty of parking and we liked how clean and how nice the environment was. We enjoyed the roll up doors and being on the water! The rooftop was closed , but we can’t wait to come back and sit up there.
Our server Bethany, was incredible, she was prompt, knowledgeable about the menu, she checked on us a ton, amazingly attentive! Really couldn’t have asked for a better waitress.
The food was fantastic
We ordered provolone cheese sticks , the outside was perfectly crispy and flavorful while the cheese was perfectly melted.
I ordered the Gouda burger and my wife ordered the Nashville chicken sandwich based on the recommendation of Bethany, both sandwiches were fantastic. My burger was juicy, flavorful and just how i ordered it. My wife said her chicken was incredibly juicy and flavorful. The portion sizes were also great!
We cant wait to come back again and eat on the roof.

Such a great experience at Zef’s Dockside! My family and I came in on January 18 around 3–3:30 PM with a party of eight to celebrate my mom’s 50th birthday, and we had the best time.
Our server was amazing—super sweet, super attentive, and always checking in on us. Our waters were never empty, the appetizers came out fast, and she really went out of her way to make sure everything was good the whole time.
The vibes were high, the food was really good, and the drinks were even better It was such a fun, relaxed atmosphere and the perfect spot to celebrate with family.
Overall, just an all-around great time. We left happy and will definitely be back. Highly recommend Zef’s for good food, great drinks, and awesome service!

Beautiful murals. Great view of Marina. That being said, I wasn’t all that impressed about a single thing food wise.
15$ for truffle fries. Frozen French fries, not even a hint of truffle oil, smell or taste. Big Miss.
Crab Rangoons. Grocery store product, straight from freezer to the fryer. Topped with uncut Mae Ploy sweet chili sauce & dried parsley. Meh. 12$ down the drain.
Drinks were great. 14$ each. Kudos on an original garnish.
Chorizo & elote chowder. Topped with cotija
cheese. I love a play on words, but calling a chili with no beans a chowder to fit a theme is a stretch.
I hate to be so cold, but my review mirrors the hospitality I felt in your establishment.
It’s a one & done for me. Nothing personal, just couldn’t make thru appetizers. I might have shared my first experience with management, but I never seen any.

I had an amazing experience at zefs! From the moment we walked in until the moment we walked out. First off, the place is beautiful and has plenty of room. The menu has a wide variety of such yummy options it was hard to come down to a choice. Our meals came out quickly and the drinks were great. Our server Ava was excellent and made sure we enjoyed ourselves. Definitely will be back 🙂

It was pretty cool. Our bartender/ food assistant Ally was delightful. She was very attentive and bubbly. We ordered our food and it was good. I had the fish tacos, and the only problem was that 2 out of the 3 had grease pockets, which was very good once you got past that. Coleslaw was good all by itself. My associate had a Po Boy sandwich, which she said it was too BIG so she took it to go. Overall, it was a good time.

My husband and I were here celebrating our 6 year anniversary and decided to give Zef’s a try. Upon arrival we were seated immediately and greeted by our server. The atmosphere was very loud. I personally didn’t like the layout of the restaurant at all. No onto the food, don’t get me wrong the food was delicious however paying $50 for a steak that was so tough I was shaking the table, I was not a fan of. The views really aren’t that great at least on the main floor. It was an okay experience, okay food, okay service but nothing to rave about. I wouldn’t feel the need to come back to this restaurant but I’m glad I gave it a try.

I have been here more than 5 times and each time they are out of something on the menu. With that said though the food I have gotten has been good, and a good portion for the money. The atmosphere is great. Always appears clean and taken care of. Service has been pleasant. Will return.

Decent food with better service.
The food was good, but not the best burger I have ever had. Also I ordered a captain and coke which was definitely an off brand soda, not truly coke.
Zefs is definitely a great summer time vibes type establishment.
