Its been a while since we have not gone out to chill and have a good time. So sad not to have a great food and a great service. We order 2 beers and, we had to move from the rear bar to a booth next to the bar, because 2 customers were too loud, thats not the business fault, the business was almost empty, we received the order of fried mushrooms and…. Let me give the business the most transparent input… we can understand inflation, but we cant understand bad quality good for the price. Price is up but the quality, the size, the freshness and the quantity decreased. Same with the service, bartender didnt offer any food, any drinks or asked us if everything was good. She left the bar, pass by us and, didn’t even look, while she was out of the bar, i was standing to order 2 more beers but, when she saw me she goes… what’s up!, then I replied, I need my bill, she printed it and turned her back on me… well, I am a good tipper, and the only thing she got from me was .59. I was been bar restaurant owner for 10 years with 3 locations and I just trying to give my input so you know and so you can train your employees. There are options and, for us, for now, Gators is not a good option.

Western burger. Burger was juicy not dried out. Barbecue sauce was very good. Choices of sides. I had the sweet corn, it was okay. It was a sports theme inside with alot of TVs. Plenty of seating and you could also sit at the bar. Dailey specials. Wings are supposed to be one of their specialities. It wasn’t very busy so our service was fast and friendly.

We stop by Thursday for the car meet. We had dinner for the first time at Gator Docks Dinner and service was very good. Will be back and recommend. Had the Taco Birria, cheese fries with chicken tenders and onion soup. Our server she was great.

We came here because we thought it was gonna be better than Chili’s. This is like the Denny’s version of a seafood place. All of the food was like four rated quality. The Korean tacos were good and the plantain tacos were good but everything else reminded me of like a Denny’s. Puréed, guacamole, and queso on top of the nachos. The server was so sweet and gentle, but unfortunately, the food was just not it. We would not return.

I went last week around 3 and it was quite the disappointing experience!
Walked in when it was practically empty, and was seated pretty quickly. Drink orders were taken, then a large group showed up. Things got busy over on that side, which I understand. Food took a while to come out, and was only just decent. The fries were really good and crispy though, I will say that.
My real issue here is the service. I should have known when a second drink was brought out before i’d taken more than a few sips of the first that things would be going downhill.
Our server just…. disappeared.
We were here around 1 hr and 20 minutes, and only 30-40 was actually spent eating. We finished our food and were sat waiting and waiting just to get our bill. Other workers made eye contact a few times as we were searching around for anyone, but apparently not their problem.
Finally we got up and paced around the front bar hoping we could catch anyone in back willing to help. A different server ran by and gave us a “they’ll be out in a few minutes!”
Only to still be left waiting. 40+ minutes total wasted at our table and up front.
It took two singular minutes (if that) to pay once we actually had the bill. Priorities!
If you’re going to be a business, you should probably be ready to take my money! I could have left without paying and it would have been entirely on yall. Oh boy was that tempting! Still left a tip, regretfully.
Needless to say, won’t be back.

Our experience went to both extremes: things at Gators Dockside at this location were both great and disappointing.
What was great: the prices, the freshness of the shrimp we ordered, the great cocktail sauce, the large portions of food we received, the eager-to-please sweetness of our inexperienced server; and the many large screen televisions playing something interesting for everyone.
What was disappointing: The lack of a greeting from the hostess (not only did she not smile, she raised her brows and chin and said “This way,”); the time it took for a server to approach our table (11 minutes after being seated, during which time we looked around and couldn’t tell who was managing the servers—-we’ve both worked in the restaurant industry); the halfhearted attitude of the prep staff or cooks who put a rotten tomato on my salad (our server corrected that by bringing me a bowl of cherry tomatoes).
Hopefully they’ll be better, if we return.

The food was fantastic! My husband ordered the gator platter and I ordered a veggie . The gator was actually pretty tasty. I don’t know if it would be something I’d order all the time but would order it again. The veggie was the best veggie burger I’ve ever had! It tasted homemade and not like the frozen veggie patties I usually get when I order a veggie Absolutely LOVED it!
Vanessa was our server and she was amazing. Smart, friendly, and attentive.
The atmosphere is sports bar/restaurant. They had a lot of TV’s with Match Madness on. They also have an outdoor patio which is always a welcomed attribute for me
Highly recommend this restaurant!

The young man named Melvin was a delight to have while eating oysters. The selection of oysters were great and very flavorful. My only problem is it doesn’t seem to be teamwork. The GM. I think her name starts with a V. Saw us sitting at the bar never acknowledged us nor did she want to help the staff. I literally saw her walking around with the jacket hanging off her shoulders doing nothing. Which made the wait longer to get service since they were obviously short staffed. Over all love my food and a big shout out to MELVIN YOU DESERVE A RAISE

The food was ok but they gave me 8 wings instead of 10 and then were not helpful even though they admitted to making the mistake. Mistakes are totally understandable but it wasn’t good customer service at all. I talked to a manager and didn’t even get an apology, he just said we made a mistake.
Update, went back, food was still fine, management is poor in my opinion, forgot things in my order again and I called and they don’t take responsibility for errors they make with orders. Understandable from front line with turn over but this is directly management.

I must say this place has gone completely downhill since the manager Daniel left! After getting a very bad meal and service about a year ago I have not gone back in. Well today I was with a friend who wanted to go there so I went! What a huge mistake went I. Around 3 not busy at all. Ordered wings fries and Cole slaw. Cole slaw went bad and I sent it back. Fries cold and hard and wings blahhhhh and cold. Plus I got over charged for my sides. Waitress was nice but never came back to refill our drinks. I’m officially done with this place. I guess if I want decent food I should stick to beef O Brady’s for burgers and wings never a bad meal there.
