Beautiful location! Great spot for large groups as well! Seafood was fresh and so good! I'm craving more just typing this! We also had the opportunity to meet the owner in person which made the experience even more memorable. We will be back! read more

CAUTION!!! CAUTION!!! CAUTION!!! DO NOT ORDER THE LOBSTER ROLL!!!!! So disappointed in my meal. The menu itself wasn't selling me so I scoured the internet for photos of the food choices from this local bar/restaurant. I finally landed on a photo from ONE month earlier via Yelp and it was for a lobster. Looked amazing. A generous portion with lots of lobster meat. In fact this photo sold 3 out of 4 of us to purchase this $27 roll. The served asked if we wanted fries so all 3 of us said yes. Apparently that's an additional up charge of $4 for fries. I had no idea until the bill came. In addition, i asked for them to be well done. They were not--and they were sooooooo peppery so I only had about 5. Actually we all discussed the ridiculous amount of pepper on them. So-- let me get to this "Connecticut lobster roll". DO NOT CHARGE ME $27 for lobster and then give me a roll fill mostly with "LANGOSTINO lobster". This is NOT lobster! These are basically hermit crabs man. They are not sweet like lobster at all. And they are much tougher the lobster. I received the equivalent of one actual lobster claw chopped up on the top of my roll, and the rest of my role was filled with LANGOSTINOS. Also, the description never mentions this cheap substitute filler, and it also describes these to be drenched in butter. They did not taste like they were drenched in butter. Maybe next time you should serve a side of drenched butter that could be dunked into. This is sooo highly offensive to me as well as disappointing and frankly poor taste as an owner. Be honest in your descriptions and pricing or serve what your advertising. My server was kind and friendly. But overall the wait for everything from the second we walked in the door was insane. We walked inside and we had to wait to be greeted and seated outside. Took forever to get seated. Took forever to get our drinks. Took forever for our food when there was nobody inside. There was maybe five tables with guests outside. Not sure what was going on, but it really wasn't busy on this Saturday afternoon. I can't imagine what a busy day would be like for this establishment. Be prepared to wait for 45 minutes to an hour for food on a slow day. Lastly, if you take a trip to the women's room, I do have to say the toilet is nice and high. That's a pro for me, but make sure you don't trip on the extension cords that are running through the bathroom floor to light up the window sign in the bathroom. What a tripping hazard! In the future, save your time and money. Giving 2 stars for the for the personable server alone. Otherwise I'd love to rate this place a big fat ZERO STAR rating. read more

We read the reviews and decided to take a chance. The place was fantastic. Service was great, Drinks were strong and the food was fantastic. I recommend ou go note any negative reviews. I would have no hesitations recommending this place to anyone. Great place and very friendly staff. The owners were busy working hard around the Resturant the entire time we were there. They are trying to make this a place people want to come back to, which I will. read more

We ordered 3 mixed drinks, they were all almost water. We brought it up, they claimed to take them and add more vodka. They came back with the same amount of liquid and tasted the same. We asked for a refund on the drinks and they agreed. We had ordered food and it is over and hour and a half with no food. Finally after threatening to leave the food came out. The burger I ordered came out and it was literally a hockey puck. I think it was on the grill for an hour and a half. We had a total of 6 burgers and they were all completely charred. The fries were completely raw. This was probably the worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant in my life. Not to mention the burgers were 18$ each with a tiny basket of about 5 fries. We ended up forcing them to take the food off our bill as well. Stay as far away from this place as possible read more

Docks Waterfront Restaurant - Acai Bowls Near Me - Sodus Point, New York

Worst experience that i've ever had going to a restaurant. I'm not one to complain about service but this place was awful. I'm a waitress myself and know how to treat customers and make sure they have the best experience. We waited almost an hour for appetizers and there were only 3 other tables around. Nobody said anything about there being a wait on food or any explanation to why it was taking so long. The owner himself didn't even have an explanation either other than they were short staffed. I understand being short staffed but there was no reason for not at least telling us when we sat down that it was going to be longer. Never will i go there again. read more

I'm not even sure where to start with this review. It was with no exception the most bizarre dining experience I have ever had (and I believe my companions would agree). Was out at Sodus visiting with a friend. She was entertaining a friend visiting from England. We tried to get a table at a different restaurant but had a 90 minute wait to be seated. So we ventured down the street to Dock's Waterfront. You couldn't have asked for a more beautiful view of the bay all open air so made for an even more pleasant location. There were very few people dining there and we were able to get a table easily. A lovely young waitress came to introduce herself and it quickly became apparent that she was quite inexperienced. She handed us the menu but did not give us a drink menu. My friends wanted a Bloody Mary and the waitress needed to ask the bartender if they served them. Since our friend was from overseas was interested in prices so she could compare them against the English currency and asked for a price for the drink and again after consulting the bartender we were told $8 that we would be charged as though a "well drink" We proceeded to order our food and after a VERY long wait (45 minutes or so) it arrived (again remembering that there were very few other diners) we found this a bit odd. Two of us ordered the salmon, one ordered the Mahi Mahi and the other a wrap. The plating for the two salmon dinners were very different. One person got a large filet and other a teeny piece of fish worthy of two good bites. It was so dramatic that we brought it to the waitresses attention. She was uncertain how to handle it so had to bring another person over whom I assumed to be a manager (we later found out she was the owner). By the time she got there they had started to eat the dinner because we had waited so long we were all very hungry. The manager/owner seemed to be almost annoyed with us and said "what would you like me to do" , putting the onus on us to solve the issue. She offered to make up another dish but considering how long it had taken figured that wasn't a great solution, but it took her up on her offer. The people who ordered the salmon said the dish was very good and had no complaints about the taste. I ordered the mahi-mahi which was a bit tasteless but the mango relish on top was very good, but was only a small dollop. There was coleslaw on the side and I think some rice. Wasn't completely impressed. Then the bills arrived...my companions who ordered the bloody Marys were charged $16 per drink They were not loaded ones just a mixed drink, nothing to write home about. We again called the waitress over to question and that's when the "owner" came over with an actual drink menu where they were listed at that price. We told her what her waitress had told us and she started to argue with us Just kept holding up the drink menu and basically saying Too Bad. I questioned why she would not stand by what we were told and she just said NO!!! She then said that if she were to reduce the price it would come out of the waitress's pocket and that "she could buy our drinks". I said that seemed unreasonable and shouldn't be on us because she hadn't properly trained her staff and she proclaimed that "she should know better, she's been there a month". We said that that wasn't going to happen and she stormed off. We had been chatting with the young waitress throughout and she was as sweet as could be, and quite upset over the mistake. At that point, I paid my bill and left. My friends stayed and chatted with her, trying to comfort her as she had gotten quite upset over everything. This could have been handled very differently. She clearly had improper training, didn't even know the names of wines and every question we asked she had to consult someone else. Because she was so sweet we gave her grace. Unfortunately, her manager humiliated her in front of us and chose to not stand by the prices we were quoted. Such a foolish mistake for a business owner. As now we will go back to Rochester and share the story with our friends. For the small amount of money she would have had to absorb. It would have been worth making it right with us and allowing us to leave with an acknowledgment that she had handled that well. A lesson that was lost on her. Considering that Sodus Point has such a short high season, this seemed like a very foolish error in judgment. And the story goes on... While I was waiting on the street for my friends to come out of the restaurant, I see the manager and the waitress outside the kitchen door and she is appearing to give her dressing down rather than talking about what went wrong and how to handle things properly in the future. Again, I had to witness the humiliation of this sweet young woman and pray that she has found alternative employment with someone who does not manage by intimidation read more

We went there yesterday July 3rd and upon initially walking in, we were told it would be about a 45 minute wait, they let us go to the bar where we had a few drinks to wait. Mind you it was not even half full inside but they claimed to have a lot of reservations for the fireworks later that night at 10:00 pm. We got there at 6:00 pm. After about 30 minutes we were told by the hostess we could go to the upstairs area to be seated and order food up there. Well, we got up there and was told that we would have to order food at the bar but the bar tender refused to take any food orders for another 45 minutes. So we went back down stairs and had a conversation with another server who finally sat us. After waiting another 20 minutes our order was taken. 30 minutes later we still had not received our appetizers we had ordered and when we asked the waitress if our food was ready or coming she said she asked the kitchen to bump our order right to the top. We waited another 20 minutes or so and still nothing. So after about an hour and a half of waiting we paid for our drinks (which we shouldn't have because I was served a Corona with a best by date of April 2026) got up and left. This place has such high upside potential but is clearly lacking good management and a quality kitchen. The wait staff was nice enough but there appeared to be no order to what was going on, no management and the kitchen is clearly undermanned and inexperienced. Until they figure something out to improve I would not recommend this location. read more
