Reviews
As usual, the food came out quick and was very good. We tried a couple new to us items: a chicken gyro, a brisket grilled cheese, and parmesean chicken on a pretzel type roll and they were all awesome!
I was glad we didnt do our typical surf&turf type lunch and tried new items.
We had a party of 8. A good time was had by all.
That said, the bar staff really carried the experience. They were attentive, checked in often, and made sure our drinks were exactly how we liked them, which definitely helped make the show more enjoyable. I’d consider coming back to try the regular menu on a non-brunch day.
We asked for ketchup with our appetizers, but it never arrived, and the server didn’t check back. My husband’s seafood tacos were mostly lettuce and lacked moisture or flavor. The loud music from the bar area made conversation nearly impossible—definitely not ideal for a celebratory dinner.
The biggest letdown came with dessert. We ordered peach cobbler to go, expecting a sweet finish to the night. Instead, we were met with a mess. The kitchen had placed the ice cream directly on top of the hot cobbler before boxing it. By the time we got home, it was a melted disaster—sloppy, soggy, and completely unenjoyable. Any reputable restaurant should know better: ice cream belongs in a separate container. If they didn’t have proper to-go cups, they should’ve said so.
A promising evening soured by poor execution and a ruined dessert.
Our servers, Gina and LaBria, were incredible!! They were both very attentive, kind, and made sure every guest was taken care of. Everything went exactly as planned, the atmosphere was great, and the food was absolutely amazing.
I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Docklands for special occasions!
It was my first time at Docklands last night and I found it to be an experience that I won’t forget. The doors opened at 7 pm and the crowd was then allowed to enter the outside patio.
As I entered the premises, I thought the setup was very nice. I walked in and looked around as I entered the tent area, I saw a menu on the bar. I got the attention of a staff person behind the bar, and she was polite in answering my questions. The female bartender was pleasant where I ordered my food, and I thanked her for her hospitality. There was a female patron who was standing by me in line, and she asked me why they removed the stools on one side of the bar, but I could not answer her question. I continued to scan the area to see where I should sit down since the tall tables under the tent were occupied so l decided to sit at one of the benches.
Lo and behold all of the benches were soaking wet with water due to the rain. I saw some of the staff moving furniture and chairs around as more customers came into the venue, so no one would consider wiping the benches down before paying customers came onto the patio. I guess setting up for the venue is done when everyone comes in the entrance because the area where the DJs were to perform was not put in place, so they were sliding and shifting chairs then rearranging the lawn couches.
I got some napkins and wiped my side of the bench down and then saw others doing the same. We had to go back to the bar and get more napkins because no one could sit down in the small puddles of water all over the bench. The woman I was sitting by ran back to the bar and got more napkins to wipe the bench down and dry the other side of the bench up.
There was a young male waiter that brought my food to the table, and he gave it to me in my hand rather sitting it down. I asked if I could get a glass of water and he said okay but never came back with it. After I started to eat my food, which was not hot at all (steak rolls and fries) it looked like something was moving on the tabletop. I realized there were ants everywhere. There was a couple sitting at the table with me and they were blown away by how many ants were on the bench.
I went to one of the staff people at the podium to share my findings and he came over to our bench to see the ants. He brushed the top of the table with a rag and went on his way. Although I placed a napkin to cover up my plate the ants were now all over my plate of food. A total gross out. I ended up taking my plate of food to the bar and throwing it away.
I wondered where the DJ (DJ before Diamond Kuts) was when I went to the bathroom inside of the building. I asked someone that was a member of the staff, and I was told she is always late. I thought to myself, this DJ must have a special connection with someone at Docklands if she is always late, but I am not trying to be negative so let me give the benefit of the doubt because I am really trying to enjoy this moment (especially when you are spending money).
I am aware that all DJs are different but since DJ Diamond Kuts was in the building, how do you pick your DJs for a set? I am sure certain people are connected in some way, but I expected more and maybe that is the problem. The DJs before DJ Diamond Kuts were supposed to hype up the crowd but there was little engagement. I must say that DJ Diamond Kut lived up to her name and pulled the crowd out onto the floor.
I thought the experience by the water with the lights and night breeze would send my expectations over the top, but I was greatly disappointed. After walking back to my car, I felt like “staying home” might have been a better fit because I doubt that I will return to Docklands.
This is just my two cents.
