Reviews
After waiting approximately 40 minutes, we were informed that outdoor seating was available. Due to the extremely cold temperature and the presence of minor children in our party, this option was not feasible. At that time, I observed and pointed out several visibly vacant indoor tables. We were ultimately seated indoors after an additional 15-minute delay.
Our server provided satisfactory service and took our order, which included a 20-count order of lemon pepper chicken wings. Upon delivery, the wings were visibly undercooked, appearing red, chewy, and not fully cooked. The server observed the wings and stated that they were not properly cooked and contacted management.
The General Manager, identified as Quede Roberts, came to the table and asserted that the wings were properly cooked. However, the wings were clearly undercooked and not prepared to a safe internal temperature, as evidenced by photographs taken at the time. These conditions present a significant risk of foodborne illness.
Following this incident, members of my family became ill. Serving undercooked poultry constitutes a serious health and safety violation and exposes patrons to the risk of foodborne illness, which can result in severe injury or death.
Despite the circumstances and evidence presented, management has maintained that the food was properly prepared and that our party was treated appropriately. Given the facts, this position is concerning and inconsistent with basic food safety standards
Although the order was eventually remade, the situation was extremely concerning, particularly given that children were present. The following day, multiple members of our party experienced symptoms consistent with foodborne illness and sought medical attention as a precaution. This experience raised serious concerns about food safety and quality control, and it significantly detracted from what should have been an enjoyable evening.
Food was quick and delicious. Liz was our incredible Server. Made us feel welcome and cared for even during the rush. Could not have wished for better service. 10/10 Will recommend and come again.
Liz was absolutely fantastic at Gators Dockside! Friendly, attentive, and on top of everything from start to finish. She checked on us often, had great energy, and made sure our food and drinks were perfect. Service like hers truly makes the whole experience better.
Sadie was very attentive to us even if the place was very busy. She was running around but still keeping eye contact with her customers to be sure we had all we needed.
Thanks!
Restaurant is exceptionally fair to Veterans and treat them exceptionally well. Thank you for your generosity! Two suggestions: Have at least one soup that doesn’t have onions and garlic in it for customers that have an intolerance for that. I also recommend, especially in winter time serving hot tea as an option. Thanks again! Veter
