    Great place if you are looking for a relaxing evening watching the sunset over the lake. We stopped for a drink and a snack and were seated promptly on the deck with a kitschy tropical vibe. Our server was super sweet. The MaiTai was a great cocktail to accompany the sunset. The Friday night fish fry looked like the best bet but we weren't that hungry. Nachos come with many accompaniments. The menu has much to offer so we will return when in the Fox Lake area.

    Located on scenic Fox Lake,this restaurant offers indoor and outdoor dining offering burgers,sandwiches,pizza,salads and more. They have a fantastic lakeside deck to enjoy the boats or sunset while sipping on one of their famous margaritas or Mai Tai. We went on a Friday night after 8pm so we had no trouble getting seated. We just went for a cocktail and nachos..both were good. They do offer a Friday Fish Fry which I want to try next time . Service was very good and prices reasonable. Plenty of parking is available. A must stop when in the Fox Lake area.

    This place has great potential, but what a shame the owner must not care for service, cleanliness or taking care of the place. Ok food and crazy high prices in a very dumpy and disorganized environment. So simple to fix most of this but no one seems to care!

    This place never disappoints. However, if you do ask for a cocktail, make sure you ask for the alcohol you want. Had to have them make my cocktail twice, but the food the food is just amazing. It's amazing. Their brosted chicken is to die for. You really have to come in and check out this place. Very laid-back ambience.

    Our happy group, outside, enjoying the nice weather before our food arrived.

    We arrived a little later than the rest of our large group, half of whom were seated inside and the other half out on the deck. It was a beautiful, warm October day, so after we started to sit down inside then saw the rest of the group out on the deck, we decided right away to head outside, and it was definitely the right decision! Our outside group of about 12, who'd gathered for an early dinner after an afternoon performance, were set up at several tables strung together into one long one, at the end of the deck closest to the restaurant. It was perfect. I had the appetizer combo basket, which was plenty for me for three meals (so I took 2/3 home), and it was his birthday, so my husband was extremely happy with their largest cut of prime rib. Our servers did an excellent job with our large group, even agreeing to split our check up, as most of the guys were paying individually. The waterfront view at sunset was an added bonus that made the gathering of friends even more perfect. I'd love to go back again and sit right by the water, which is always my favorite place to dine on a nice day. This is a lovely spot to do this -- the deck is large and inviting, and the waterfront view is lovely.

    First, the patio seating was great near the lake, with plenty of room and a second deck. We were seated right away with a great view of the water. Our server did a great job of checking up on us and was friendly. My fish tacos were very good. The only thing keeping this from being a five star is the prices are slightly high, but I always expect this when eating near lakes.

    Dockers is my new favorite place! We went twice on our quick weekend trip to Fox Lake and I highly recommend! We stopped by Friday afternoon for a couple of cocktails and to enjoy their beautiful views of the water. The bloody was tasty and I also got a frozen margarita that hit the spot on a hot day. My boyfriend got a beer which was nice and cold but just be aware they'll come out in a plastic cup (if you have an issue with that). We clearly had an adult palate that day so we sampled their fries and mozzarella sticks which were very yummy. The service was excellent on a busy Friday afternoon. We went back Saturday for an early lunch and most everyone got burgers and everyone agreed they were absolutely delicious. I did a Caesar salad which was tasty and the portion was huge. This time there was a big group of us and the service was also very good. Thank you for being a great part of our weekend!

    Marinated chicken with greek salad/fries
    Rebecca R.

    Decided to stop here on a whim to enjoy a beautiful view with a great view. Service was great. We were seated quickly even though it did seem like there some arguments going on with staff at the front of the restaurant, which made us uncomfortable. However, our waitress was phenomenal. Fast, very friendly and great on drink refills if needed. We went with a Bacon & Cheese Chicken Sandwich and the Docker's Style Marinated Chicken. Hubby upgraded the fries to sweet potato fries, which ended up being mushy. Chicken was a nice sandwich, decent portion with moist chicken. My entree was pieces of chicken with a greek salad and regular fries. Chicken was moist and decent pieces, salad was full of fresh veggies (peppers, lots of feta, cucs) with a nice greek dressing that wasn't oily at all. Fries had a crispy, seasoned crust and mine were not mushy at all. Pop tasted perfectly calibrated with a nice level of sweetness. We enjoyed our meal, the service and the view and would go back again.

    Way overpriced. Food is good granted. $30 for a 6 piece chicken? Stop playing. I wouldn't considered this place again.
