I came here for the views and mostly that. It is very expensive for what it is. I had a moscow mule and I'm pretty sure it was $15. That is outrageous. Their wines are in cans, they present them in cups but still. Of course, I always expect a bar or restaurant attached to a hotel to be more expensive but that just seemed really reaching. For that reason, I did not purchase anything more from here. You can order food from your table which is nice, but again those prices for sushi are not worth it in my opinion. I didnt find any of the staff particularly kind either, very indifferent or slightly annoyed. read more

Good vibes . Beautiful place and it made our favorite date night spot. Loved the music and people watching. I felt like I was on vacation or a fun party . Also such a cool restaurant idea with bar outside and umbrella seating and scenic water views right there. Will be back. Staff were nice and friendly. We enjoyed everything! read more

Food is solid but pricey. Nice location, although the ambiance has suffered recently. I'll be back regardless!

I've come to the realization that this place is racist. I didn't want to believe it but one of the white male bartenders ignored me & served a white male who came up after me. He (the bartender) didn't acknowledge me or say he'd get back to me. I wasn't drunk, high or anything else, and in fact tipped him almost 20% on our first round ($9 on a $50 bill because that's all I had in cash.). If you're Black, the views are great, but not the service, as I have been ignored more than I'd like to admit. BYOB and sit in the dock and watch the sunset. #beautiful Don't go to the bar or restaurant read more

Disappointed in the selection of appetizers. There should be more shareable snacks. How hard is it to have some chips and salsa, just chip, pretzels, nuts, or something? There are appetizers upstairs. Unfortunately it wasn't open when we arrived. Doesn't have to be fancy. I ordered the meat and cheese box. The items were skimpy and soggy. The nuts were totally inedible since they were soggy. Not enough crostini for items. Crostini were soggy too. Box needs more thought in pick of items and storage. The olives/peppers made the box too wet since it's paper. Cheese was a bunch of crumbs and a small slice of Brie. Plus no utensils or small plates to share. Just have to grab out of the box like a two year old digging for cheese crumbles to put on your crostini. Really wasn't worth the price. Could have gotten luchables and it would have been better. Finally, we could only order one round of drinks. I asked the bar how to add drinks to our order. He said we couldn't because online ordering doesn't allow more than one transaction. So you have to go to bar and wait to get another round. I don't mind self service. But it's weird you only can get one order and that's it. read more

Dock and Drink - Meat and cheese plate - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Renton, Washington

It's Juneuary in the Seattle area, and that means we get very excited for any moments of sunshine and warmth and  we're especially delighted when there are outdoor, lakefront places to enjoy the rare sunny days. As the pandemic slows down, we're also eager for outdoor spots with wide open spaces where we can get together and have drinks and food with friends again. Dock and Drink delivers on views, outdoor seating (250 seats according to information provided when we called to ask about crowds), sun/shade options, and (if you are an Eastsider like me) a convenient location. The summer time version of Dock and Drink offers tapas, tacos, sliders, fries, grilled cheese, and a variety of drinks. Unfortunately, all of the food items are expensive, small portions, and not super tasty. It's not fun to pay $90+ for street tacos, corn salad, grilled cheese, wings, and two (cans) roses when the portions are so darned small and the food is bland. I am aware of the adage that in places like this you are paying for the view, but come on, how hard is it to offer good flavor and decent portion sizes? Imagine what D&D could be if that was the case. In addition to the so-so fare, the experience of getting your food and beverages is clunky at best. You can either go and get your own, but you have to order food at one station and drinks at another. Are they seperate businesses? Is this intended for crowd control? And the other option is to use your phone to scan a QR code and order from the menu online. In our experience, the latter only works 50% of the time with at least one order getting stuck when we couldn't hit submit and there was no clear path to solve whatever was wrong. They do not take reservations, so it is first come first served for seating. There are adorable blue Adirondack chairs right by the water and lots of table seating, low and tall and shaded and open. The staff seemed friendly and efficient. Development around the Hyatt is pretty packed now that all the buildings are built, but the area is chock full of beautiful plantings and great views. I have a feeling folks living in the apartments there enjoy being there. It would be awesome if Peyrassol, a fantastic little family run restaurant on the street nearby, had an outdoor dining option instead. Their food and beverages are amazing and well worth your time and money. Bottom line, we will likely return to D&D for the lake side seating and a beverage but probably not for the food. This is more of a drinks and snack place than a nice dinner experience. read more

Overall, about 3.5 stars. The food was decent. The highlight were the fries. I ordered the buffalo chicken slider and truffle fries. They were good, but a bit over priced for me personally. I did like how we were able to order by scanning the code and able to order and pay from our phones. They are efficient in bringing out our foods correctly. The view from the outside dining was beautiful. We were able to see the beautiful sunset. read more

I was here for a Yelp event and bought an additional cocktail from the bar. I chatted with the bar staff and waitresses while at the bar and they were nice and friendly. Dock and Drink is a hidden treasure at the Southern tip of Lk Washington at the Hyatt. The venue is very unique. I can see how this place is so busy in the Summer with boats docking about 30 feet from the bar. Ahoy mateys! With all the rain we've been having lately, I was happy to be in the tent-enclosed area as it was dry and well lit. All the staff I interacted with while there were very friendly and attentive. Now I know of a new place to dock my boat in the Summer for a quick refreshment (I guess I need to buy a boat first!). read more

I came a couple times over the summer as they have a huge outdoor area and a great view of the lake. Parking in the garage was free and it was an easy spot to go to. Ordering is both easy and hard - you sit at a table, scan and order online all through your phone and they bring it out to you. While it was nice to be able to do that the minute you sit down, the ordering flow is a lot of steps and feels tedious. Everything I've had here was good though - quesadillas, tacos, etc. Kids love it too. Overall, I think this is a great place to go especially in the summer when you want to enjoy lake views and have plenty of room to sit, enjoy your food, and chat. read more

Dock and Drink is a great spot when the weather is nice. Sitting at the waterfront with my dog and friends is awesome, and there is lots of people/boat watching to be had! The drinks are expensive because of the location/ambiance and the fact that it is connected to a really nice waterfront hotel. The kids that work there are all, for the most part, what come to mind if you think of kids that grew up with boats who live off daddy's money- and are pretty rude (been there three times). I have friends that live nearby and its really fun to hang out there but the drink experience is lacking! read more

Update: Dock n Drink is back! My last review was scathing. And now they get a decent rating. The menu is exactly what you would expect. It's not 3 Michelin star fare, service and ambiance but it doesn't need to be. Burgers, tacos, fries, chips and salsa, sun, lake, live music. 100% winning. read more

Dock and Drink - Disgusting Pulled pork sandwich - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Renton, Washington

Very bad service . We've been here before but never like these . Never experienced this kind of service my entire life. Not sure if he's racist or something. Took forever to get to us but he was very helpful with other table next to us . Forgot our drinks. Reminded him 3x and we had to come to him. We finally decided to go to the bar to get the drinks after 45 minutes of waiting. Never took the drinks from our tab. Took forever to get our check and bag to go so we just ended up leaving with out taking our left over home . The only fast service was when we're paying ! Never asked us if we need anything or if we ever got our drinks but all the other costumers were all taken care off . read more

Great spot for sunset and water view outdoor dining! We enjoyed the beautiful scenery and friendly service as well. We ordered the truffle, poutine, loaded(personal fav) fries, Buffalo chicken slider, popper grilled cheese sandwich, and fizzy peach mocktail drink. The fries were delicious and very filling as a meal itself. Some of the food pricing was a bit expensive for me personally. Hoping that they offer more options on their menu soon! First visit tip: You can park in the Hyatt Regency Hotel garage and get validated at the restaurant. Order online from phone and food is delivered to your table! read more

Scenery is fantastic. Cocktails are delicious. Service could be better. There's a lot of tables here and it's very busy, the staff seems short handed. I came with a party of 6 and had to poach for a table to accommodate. We weren't served any waters and had to go up to the bar to get drinks. As far as food, I was pleased with my Greek salad and enjoyed the basket of fries also. Burgers were only available as well done. This is a good place to people watch and enjoy some sunshine, but I wouldn't expect a quick bite. read more

The view is beautiful but I'm not a fan of their mandatory 20% service charge when they couldn't even bring the drinks to my table and you need to bus after you dined. They also did not provide a receipt even after I questioned their charge. The foods had nothing to do with them. They just grab them from the food truck parked close by. The view and the walkway is open to public, so I probably will not return to this venue. read more

The food and drinks are good, the fries are especially good. It was a bit difficult to find seating as it was free for all. The service was a bit slow but since the seating can be anywhere it was acceptable. read more

Nice place to sit by Lake Washington and enjoy the views and boats as they pass by or stop at the dock. The menu is limited but I enjoyed my quinoa salad. It was fresh. You can order at the bar and find your own spot to sit or you can get table service as well. Overall a chill place to go. read more

It wasn't what I was expecting, this place had a live music playing, nice view but no food served. All they had was a cold sushi that you can get from the store. There was also construction going on so you can't really see the view. The place was beautiful tho. read more

Was excited to try this place, 80+ degrees in Renton outside water view. Cons: food was not good quality based on price, it looked like grocery store or gas stations Sushi , oysters were not fresh and had to stop eating them. Pros: drinks came out fast, view is awesome Recommendation only go for drinks and if you want to eat go to water table. read more

Cool little spot to grab some small bites and drinks at, just kind of an odd layout. Self serve seating, order through your phone and they bring it to you. The piña colada I had was amazing, and the brisket taco was really good too. read more

Old Dock & Drink=Great food, great servers with human interaction, screens to catch the game, a DJ to accentuate a fabulous atmosphere with lots of happy people, yachts pulling up to this venue to participate in the fun drinks listening to DJs and food, a great selection of food, well managed with reasonable cocktail prices, and NO QR CODE WITH AN AUTOMATIC 20% GRATUITY. New Dock & Drink= Straight trash. A damn QR Code with no server interactions, $15 drinks(no matter what drink)and added 20% gratuity for EVERY transaction, trash selection of food choices, servers that don't care, no atmosphere, it just seems like people do not know what to do with this great venue. You need a happy hour, a good seafood selection being in the Pacific Northwest and having a venue on the water, you need fish and chips, you need chowder, you need a good oysters from Taylor Shellfish farms, you need crab, you need Lobster rolls, you need a DJ to keep the atmosphere going and for people to want to come and have a great time, you need a great brunch with specials on Bloody Marys and mimosas, you need a reasonably priced well drinks, beer and wine that is served in glasses not in cans. AND GET RID OF THE DAMN QR CODE. COVID is over!!! It just seems like every restaurant like this one in every other state knows how to manage and run it properly and it POPS! But for some reason, it seems like this place cannot ever get it together. Upper management needs to organize you guys a trip down to Scottsdale Arizona to a few restaurants down there and learn how to run an establishment and keep people WANTING to go back every weekend. Because right now, this place ain't it. read more

Love that this place reinvents itself as the seasons change however I would like the managers to revisit their decision to not have TVs for their winter version. Totally get not having them for summer but this time of year is about watching sports while you have a drink and some light pub food. Not too late to make this change. read more

Mostly on Yelp for good reviews but every 3 years or so I feel it's my duty to warn people. This place is all about location. You're paying for the view which honestly can be better in Kirkland or Seattle waterfronts. I had the al pastor taco. For 5 dollars per street taco the meat was extremely bland. The carne asada quesadilla for 7 dollars was a bit better meat wise but the cheese selection not so much. It tasted like white American cheese. The ceviche was fresh and had nice ingredients but again lacked some salt & seasoning. I had 3 different drinks and they were okay. Wish I could get my $80 back. I haven't been this disappointed in a restaurant in years. Glad I drove instead of boated to this place. For boaters a better place on lake WA to Dock & drink/dine would be Blu Water bistro. read more

I'm not sure if the policy will be changed in the future but right now they have no way of adding your name for a table. We ended up leaving after 20 minutes because people were literally hovering over tables to be the next to sit down when another party was finished. It was chaos and felt like a middle school lunch room. This was our second time here. The first time was on a weekday. We decided to bring some friends back to try on a weekend. Don't even bother unless you enjoy racing people to claim a table. read more

Really good place to Dock and get Drinks/food. However, the food lacks flavor and its overpriced. We get it! You pay for the convenience of docking and getting food in such a nice area. But, this place is not what it used to be. We stopped frequently last year during the pandemic madness and service was good, fast and efficient. This year, its chaos and it turned into a daily unorganized summer party. We stopped by a few weeks back and ordered a few drinks. Their margaritas are not made fresh to the order. We got four margaritas in a pre-made "drinking bag" and they had a strong BPA/BPS taste. We were very disappointed with the service, the plastic smell/taste of our margaritas and the 40 minute wait for three $5 dollar mini tacos. We ended up tossing our drinks. They need do some some improvements. :( read more

Parking continues to be a problem. Servers claim incorrectly that parking is free all weekend. It is not. You will be charged Fridays even though the server claimed this very evening it was! Also getting your parking validated often does nothing and they will charge you anyway. The hotel makes excuses for the parking people and blame shifts. The restaurant has no clue. And you pay the price. Pro tip: go to the front desk at the hotel and ask for the manager to cover your parking. They will. This is a classic example of poor communication between the hotel the restaurant and the parking garage. Perhaps management should up their game and learn to set proper expectations with visitors. Whoever was on the parking intercom tonight needs to be fired for hanging up and being rude Also your Caesar salad has no dressing and it sucks read more

Would not come back honestly. Service was not great and they don't have clear direction on where you are allowed to sit depending on where you ordered. If you order from the bar be prepared to battle for seating. At one point one of the servers adjusted the umbrella and removed our shade which was a bit rude. Drinks are fine and food was OK. read more

My new hangout spot! It's so great here that I want to keep it to myself haha this place is the perfect hangout spot outside and right next to the beach. The have a band play here during the weekends which is awesome. They also have food you can order from a food truck. I highly highly recommend! read more

Hallelujah! Dock & Drink is back! Great menu this summer. Vegetarians and vegans are covered.... gluten-free vegan requires a little work... would be great to see a gluten-free bun or gluten-free fries option, or a quinoa option instead of Farro on the grilled veg salad. But... I'll take it! Way better than the poke menu last summer! And as much as I loved the butternut squash vegan tacos, I love the Mediterranean theme this summer. We love D&D and will be visiting frequently this summer!! read more

This is a solid place. Predictable, safe, respectable and nothing will annoy you. Its exactly what you hope or expect when you are staying at a Hyatt and don't want to leave to find food. It's a modern room designed as a lounge. They had an outdoor area that was covered and heated. It was 50 degrees and raining and I was comfortable with no coat. The drinks were good and the bartenders were funny and willing to have a conversation. Service was good. They had a nice house Cabernet that I sipped on and enjoyed. I also had the meatballs, a flatbread and charcuterie. None of these apps rook risks or were very innovative, but they were consistent, tasted like they would appease the broadest number of people. Overall, solid. It's a place where if you went to each table and asked them how it is, everyone would give you the resounding "it's good" while people nods their heads. You'd hear no complaints, you'd hear no people saying it was the best meal of their month. I'd go again if I stayed there or wanted an early evening casual sit down to network or connect with an old friend in a fun quiet lounge. read more

I was excited to try Dock & Drink for SRW but overall I was highly disappointed. We arrived at 4:57pm for our 5pm reservation. We entered on the dock area rather than the hotel entrance. We told the staff we saw that we had reservations, they just told us to sit anywhere we'd like. Afterwards our server came and gave us our menu. I asked for the SRW menu, she said she would give it to us but we couldn't order from it until 5pm to which I responded with it was 5pm. She gave it to us and walked away. While waiting to order, a host asked us if we had reservations and what the name was to check us off. The server came back and we proceeded to order from the SRW menu. She told us we couldn't order from it. I was irritated at this time and told her it was past 5pm. She just responded with "oh." We spent the next 20 mins waiting for our appetizers; 30 mins after appetizers dishes were cleared from our table for entree; 20 mins after our entree dishes were cleared from our table for dessert; and 20 mins after our dessert dishes were cleared from our table for our check. Our server was not attentive at all and we kept having to flag her down for more water (cause I needed water to chew down the horrible food) and as she served other guests (predominately white), she didn't treat us with the same treatment. What a shame as she herself was AAPI. Ordered the following: Caesar Salad: very few lettuce and tons of Parmesan (see pictures) it was swimming in it. Very little dressing, I just ate lettuce and Parmesan. Margherita Pizza: I love Margherita Pizza but their version of it was disappointed. They handed me packaged Parmesan and chili flakes (like the ones you'd get at Costco!). The pizza was made with flat bread. It was too sweet and they used cherry tomatoes. Short Rib Ragu: Super sweet, just pulled pork thrown in. Not short rib at all. Pasta was soggy. Carbonara: Super sweet from the sauce & pasta was drenched in the sauce that it was soggy. House made Strawberry Gelato: It was hard as an ice break. It was more of an strawberry sorbet than it was gelato. Chocolate Torte: The smallest size of cake slice I ever received in a restaurant. The chocolate decoration that came with it was bigger than the slice itself! The chocolate decoration tasted like crappy milk chocolate. It was so gross. The cake itself was super rich, I wished it came with more raspberry sauce to offset. The food was just okay. Service was crappy. I would never come back. read more

Dock and Drink is a hidden gem in Renton. My husband and I loved going here during the summer time when it was all outdoor seating with a wonderful view of the water and comfortable patio table and chairs. We brought our dog as well and enjoyed a family outing with stiff drinks and delicious food. They are VERY dog friendly, which we love love love. It can get crowded but it doesn't ever feel overwhelming. Service is always very good no matter where you go, whether it's the bar, the Cantina for tacos, and at the tables where you are taken care of by a server. Sheena is the assistant manager at Dock and Drink and customer satisfaction is her #1 priority. Her work and service are very impressive. I can't wait for it to be open during the summer again but until then, we will be trying out their heated outdoor seating in tents during the cooler seasons! We are very excited to try it out! WEEKEND UPDATE: can confirm-the covered, heated seating is JUST AS WONDERFUL!! Highly recommend!!!! read more

Came in for dinner because they currently have outdoor seating. The atmosphere is really cute for a tent, makes you feel fancy even if it is in a tent! The food is fantastic. I really enjoyed the Butcher's cut. Seasoned well, cooked to perfection. The clams are to die for, very simple, fresh, bursting with flavor. I recommend ordered a baguettes to soak up all the extra sauce!! Service is always fantastic there. They are very clean, everyone where's masks and social distances. The tables are spaced well so there is enough space for everyone without being overcrowded and allowing for ample air flow. read more

The bar food is fine. What warrants my five-star rating is the stellar customer service. All the staff accommodated us, made our first "covid outing" easy & comfortable. Several giant screens to watch the football game with plenty of space between parties. Will Definitely be back! read more

Cute little vibe -- went here alone to get some writing in but this could be a cute hangout spot for anyone. Great place to watch the game - they have 2 giant projector screens and I mean GIANT lol. Atmosphere was cozy, spacious and the staff was great -- shoutout to Steven for the great customer service! The only thing is they don't have HH and I know we're in a pandemic and everybody is struggling but maybe instead of HH they could have specials or idk themed nights idk I'm grasping lol. The drinks were club prices so if you're cool with that then great. They did have a menu which I believe was the waters table menu (restaurant at the Hyatt). The food was okay. It's right on the water, and don't worry they got the heater on HIGH! which I loved. Too many places are doing the outdoor tent seating with barely any heat so I appreciate Dock and Drink for sparing no expense at keeping their customers warm. Overall it's a cute place and I admire how they've turned it into something special because when I walked inside I was truly impressed. I'll definitely go back again! read more
