The salad bar was legendary!!!! The Ambrosia salad was world class! The Asian Turkey curry salad was to die for. The freshest ingredients could found in the salad bar that one could find and the presentation was outstanding! Well done !!!! read more

Dockside - The graduating class of 2024 St. Marie's celebration! - Salad Near Me - Coeur D Alene, Idaho

I don't have one negative thing to say! The food was perfection and the service was superb! The restaurant has an amazing view and the vibe is modern. Definitely recommend! read more

I think maybe I went on a bad day. The food was good and it came out hot. The sauce on it was sooo good. We got a window seat and it looked over the lake. It's very nice on the inside. There were a few people singing in there, about 8 songs I think maybe 2 would be better. They stood right in front of 2 tables. I wouldn't have been happy.. we were just trying to have a nice lunch. But it was loud and very consistent. I think maybe less songs would've made it better it was just too loud. I think where they needed to improve was service. They kept our drinks full which I loved. They didn't check on us once after we got our food. We needed a few things but the server never came back.. I think a big part of going to a restaurant is the service.. maybe just personal preference. read more

Dockside - Hand - Breaded Chicken Parmesan - Salad Near Me - Coeur D Alene, Idaho

We celebrated my daughters birthday here last minute after Wolf Lodge unfortunately burned down. We were able to get a reservation rather last minute and even managed to score a window area to make her birthday dinner extra special. We have always loved the atmosphere at dockside as we usually come for the Easter buffet. The place is always clean and you can't beat the gorgeous view. We had the coconut prawns and the steak bites for appetizers and both were very good. Mt father in law had the fish tacos and said they were " pretty good " The ahi and salmon Oscar were delicious but the crab cakes...... those were by far the best. I had to keep blocking my plate from everyone because once I offered them one little bite they kept swarming my plate like a bunch of vultures. The deserts are all equally delicious but if you love cheesecake I would highly recommend it. It's not overly rich and it's light and fluffy. Thank you dockside crew for squeezing my family in last minute and making her dinner special. read more

Food: 3.5/5 Interior: 5/5, not my style but 5 for location/view Service: 3/5 Drinks: NA Value: 2/5 OVERALL: 3.4/5 You're paying for the location and view here, and I don't think that's any surprise to anyone. The food is just ok with an additional .5 for presentation. The interior is recently updated, but feels more artificial and boring than before. You can't beat the downtown location with water views, especially during summer's golden hours. Service is also just OK, lots of younger workers who don't look happy to be there. Lastly, it's expensive - there are so many other amazing restaurants in town with premium prices and food/service to show for it. Great for out of town entertainment to get the resort experience, but definitely not on any top list for locals. read more

Menu is a bit limited-was also hoping for prime rib on a Sunday but they didn't have it. Had reservations but had to wait about 15 minutes. Ordered rib eye which was cooked well. Mixed vegetables served with it was yellow and green zucchini only but they were cooked pretty well. Service was meh-had to wait quite awhile to order. Ambience is great-overlooks the lake. Gooeys sundaes were good-husbands was a bit light on ice cream but otherwise good. read more

Excellent location, view of the docks and water. Prompt courteous service. Close to shops and park.We will returr.

Quiet. Nice views of the lake. Friendly service. I would give my server higher rating because she was very sweet and apologetic. However, being a server myself, if a plate is sub par, you don't walk it out onto the floor and place in front of a guest. The menu is overpriced and the food was disappointing at best. I ordered the salmon bagel. Dry, sloppily put together, thick cucumber slices were odd, capers were all over the bottom of the bagel. I can't believe I was going to pay $20 for this wreck. The bagel was flavorless despite it being some kind of herb and cheese. Cream cheese slopped in big clumps not even covering bagel. It claims to have shaved red onions and cucumber ribbons. Try sliced hunks of red onion and very thick cucumber slabs. No dill anywhere on my plate. No lemon zest either. Absolutely unprofessional. I rarely EVER complain or send food back, but I did this morning. Server mentioned a "new guy". Not sure but if so then they need to train him. read more

Dockside - Shrimp scampi - Salad Near Me - Coeur D Alene, Idaho

Absolutely gorgeous view and a beautiful place to dine. I have celiac disease and I rarely dying out due to cross-contamination. I was willing to just have coffee with my family while they eat, but our server Sierra was so intelligent about celiac disease and so concerned that she made me feel totally at ease. The breakfast was absolutely delicious and I felt totally pampered. You have no idea how much anxiety can cause for someone with celiac disease. I'm happy to report had no reaction and had the most delicious breakfast ever with my family. Thank you very much. read more

Let's say we were a little disappointed on our latest visit to The Dockside. Only 4 appetizers to choose from....waiter said all the food got wiped out over Christmas. Ordered the chicken Caesar salad for main entree. Ended up getting the side salad amount with bits of chicken thrown on the top. Also ordered the Truffle Fries. Had to ask for them after I got my main entree-and they came out mushy. We love coming here especially during the holidays-but this time was not enjoyable read more

Burgers are awesome and service was very good, we had a view of the lake and enjoyed being there, we will be back..

I've always gotten very great service from the staff. They are all so kind and friendly!

Came in for the $24.95 endless breakfast buffet and it was great! They have this Saturday and Sunday from 8:00am -12:00pm It's chef's choice but we started off with bacon eggs, French toast. Breakfast sausage, potatoes that where amazing. And of course the $6 dollar mimosas and Bloody mary. The views from the restaurant are amazing. Looks over the CDA lake . Great service it wasn't busy we arrived around 10:30 and got sited right away. I'll for sure be back. read more

A definite destination if you are in the Couer d'Alene area. I'm unsure if they take reaervations but it might be a best practice during buay times. Every dish was well prepared and the staff was highly attentive to our table. The large size of the restaurant makes it easy to hold conversations with out neighborly interruptions. I had the French dip which was good I had some jealous moments while I saw the seafood and pasta dishes. The main entrees come with access to a great salad bar. read more

Dockside - Great view of docks, laje and mountains. - Salad Near Me - Coeur D Alene, Idaho

We went to Dockside while staying at the hotel for an event. We made a reservations months in advance and got in right away, which was wonderful. Drinks: First, I ordered the jalapeño margarita and it was delicious. It was the perfect amount of spice and definitely hit the spot. Starters: For an appetizer I ordered the WSU Cougar Gold cheese dip. It came with bread and kettle chips. It was really good and I was pleased that it came with enough bread/chips for all the dip. Often times you always run out of the dippers before the dip, so it was nice that didn't happen Entree: For my entree, I decided to treat myself and order the Sirloin Surf and Turf - boy was that a mistake. It was extremely disappointing. The steak was supposed to be topped with herbed butter and I did not see any. I asked for medium rare, but when I cut into I could tell right away it was undercooked. It was definitely way more rare it should have been. I take my first bite and it was so tough and so stringy that I couldn't break it down. I thought, maybe that's just a bad piece, tried again - same thing. I cut a piece from the other end of the steak - same thing. The whole steak was tough, stringy, and lacking flavor. I ended up not eating it. Moved onto the shrimp - which was rubbery and overcooked. It was a really disappointing. With my entree I got to pick either soup or salad bar and I went with the salad bar. This was probably my favorite part of the meal. They have a huge salad bar with all the toppings you could need. Definitely recommend the salad bar. The service: our waiter was fantastic. He was there when we needed him, but didn't hover. Very sweet man. I probably won't spend the money to dine here again. There are so many great local places to eat in CDA, for less money, that it just wouldn't be worth giving it another shot. read more

Quick service. Lots of options for kids. Enjoyed the view of the lake. Waitstaff very quick. Food arrive hot and exactly as ordered

Location was nice. Food was terrible. The fall harvest salad had old shriveled up basic dry beets, carrots and parsnips. My husband's chipotle burger was only flavored by the mass amounts of chipotle paste smeared on the dry old brioche bun that just fell apart when he picked it up. Service was also less than desirable. read more

I honestly am shocked at the quality of Dockside. We have been there twice in the last year.. Both times we have had extremely slow and poor service. The most recent (last month), there was a group of 8 of us for a company dinner on a Wednesday Night. We all ordered drinks which took over an hour to get... Our server was horrible at checking in on us too. Then we all got our food, and our steaks were COLD... the butter on the steaks weren't even melted. Then the automatic 21% gratuity for a table over 6, which I get but after the level of service we got, there should've been none or at least been able to be changed. For somewhere as expensive as Dockside is, I am applaud. We won't be back. read more

Basically the food is Denny's but has a view of the marina. If you want nice atmosphere but not hungry I recommend it. . If you're hungry and need some real food, stay away read more

This is inside the coeurdalene resort. And the views are incredible. Started with the jalapeño pineapple margarita. It has pineapple chunks and jalapeño slices in the cocktail but overall a pretty standard one- nothing out of the world about it. Got the cheese burger soup after and was pleasantly surprised. It tasted like a cheese burger lol. The crab melt was fab. It comes with a small portion of salad that has dressing mixed with it. I wish I had it on the side because the toasted French bread got soggy thanks to the sweet dressing. Salad was fine though- liked the pickled onion touch. The crab meat with cheese on the bread tasted fine. It's very filling. They have nice, comfy booths and service is quite nice. read more

I've been coming here since I was a kid. Brought my family from TX this summer. We arrived about an hour before closing so they were out of several items but it was awesome nonetheless. We had a hilarious waiter who made everything easy. Couldn't have been more impressed with the hostess at Whispers (we had a cocktail there before dinner). We enjoyed the yacht rock playing and the comfortable booths. The clam chowder was delicious and we had the ooey gooyey ice cream sunday. If we get diabetes, it was worth it! They even put a sparkler in it for us. If you are in CDA, eat here and walk around the boardwalk. It does not suck! Highly recommend! read more

I always get the salad bar when going here but I decided to branch out this weekend. I will say that the restaurant was packed - usually a bad sign but I figured they could handle it. I was wrong. We got the French dip & the chicken sandwich. They were both disappointing. The piece of chicken was so small it disappeared inside the bun - for $20?? The French dip had a lot of fatty bits and the cheese was nonexistent and I definitely would say it was skimpy- again, $20?? I'll stick with the salad bar- which is incredible. read more

Hadn't been here since they did the upgrade, and it is wonderful! Beautiful and tastefully completed, the restaurant is just amazing.

We stayed overnight at the hotel Valentine's Day. We went to Dockside and sat in the lounge for a couple of drinks. The drinks were great, the service not so much. We seemed to be the forgotten table even though we were right next to the bar. My husbands bloody mary sat at the bar for 10 minutes before I said hey I think thats ours can I grab it. We decided we wanted to eat and chose the Valenetine's Couples dinner for two which was listed as a 3 course meal. We chose the Calamari(1st course), Salad bar(2nd course and steak w/ mashed(3rd course). We waited for a bit thinking the Calamari would come but didn't so we both made our trip to the salad bar. Once we got back to our table realized we had not utensils/napkins and had to as the bartender because server no where in sight. Just barely started eating our salad and the calamari and steak dinner get delivered all at once. Why are we calling this a 3 course dinner when the appetizer comes with the main dish? Our table was tiny and barely enough room for all the plates dishes. Server never asked us once if we needed water refills which we both drank all of. For a resort/restaurant this nice, their staff should have much better standards than this. Food was amazing, but again service was not good. read more

Ambiance is great. Servers are friendly. Salad bar is good. Food is sub-par. Beautiful setting and it could be such a great place for an elegant date but the food is disappointing. Had a pork chop the last time and it was tough and dry. Same happened tonight with the rainbow trout. It was dry and fishy tasting. There won't be a third meal eaten here! read more

Decent food with a great view but we really came for the super sundaes they have. Be warned unless you're an ice cream maniac, you will need at least 4 people to help you because these sundaes are bigger than your head! read more

We went here for Inlander Restaurant week. Overall, the food was okay and the service was good. Here are a few highlights: - some really creative ice cream desserts on the menu - artichoke cougar gold dip was yummy (but only with the pita bread, not the other French bread which tasted a bit stale) - nice view of the water - chicken Coeur d'Alene was super yummy - good portion sizes Here were some downsides: - they have happy hour on the menu with some great cocktail prices but you have to sit at the bar to take advantage of the discounts, which isn't clear on the menu - we were overcharged for one of our drinks (check the receipt before you pay!) - the drinks can be spendy. I got a gimlet and it was $22. - the cheesecake was basic and lack luster Overall, pretty average place for food! read more

Tried this restaurant out while we were in town and it was surprisingly good! Got the NY strip with peppercorn and it was delicious. Cooked perfectly med/rare as ordered and came with lighly sautéed fresh vegetables that were super good. The mashed potatoes were just okay but rest of the dish made up for that. For dessert we had the gluten free huckleberry pie and the recess peanut butter ice cream sundae and both did not disappoint. Server checked on us an appropriate amount of times and was pleasant and accommodating. The view from this restaurant overlooks lake coeur d Alene and there are really no bad views as most of their tables overlooks the water. read more

Great restaurant for a family staying here in Coeur d'alene. The French dip was one of the best, I've had. The space is open and large but has amazing views. The service is probably better than we expected, the service seemed to be caught off guard regarding the convention that was happening so felt like they were off their game. Would definitely come back read more

We have tried dockside a handful of times and it's always a hit or big miss. Nothing in between.The view is beautiful. The service is fair. We went for a Mother's Day dinner. I had the chicken Coeur d'Alene. There was nothing about it that I liked. It had zero flavor. Asparagus were soggy the mashed potatoes didn't taste like garlic, mashed potatoes if there's anything in it and the chicken was bland. The chicken was very small. For a $30. Meal I would expect more. Everyone else at the table did not like their food either super disappointing. And I paid $30 for my dish and I wouldn't give you two dollars for it. Feel like we got completely ripped off on a special day. Very disappointed. How does this place stay in business. Wont be back read more

I've seen this place decline the last two years. Nice they redid the interior of the place but the food quality has deteriorated. Especially the dip and tacos. Fish was tuff and the dip meat is rubber. Both used to be great! Not sure what's happened but, not good! Hope it gets fixed. read more

Have lived in CDA returning many times annually to visit. In my humble opinion whomever was in charge of the boat awning really messed up and erased the million-dollar lake view from the Dockside restaurant! Last time (approx 12 mos ago) I went to Dockside & noted an overall decline in quality and staff. Todays visit was a complete disappointment and here's a my noted review; 1) The new remodel was not properly designed nor executed : There are numerous bars in the hotel and placing one in the dockside was a poor decision and it creates a more inferior ambiance. we are coming to relax and eat not hear nor see a bar. It looks ostentatious and out of place. 2) The remodel created yet another oversized service area for ice, drinks and whatever, adding unnecessary noise and less ambiance particularly by the the booths which are designed for relaxation and ambiance. 3) The use of stripes and bright colors is not as soothing nor easy on-the-eye as your former decor. It further distracts from the main feature..THE LAKE-VIEW.. (or what's left of it) 4) The menu has changed (being a 'foodie') is inferior to the previous menu. Food and the quality Therein should be the 2nd focus next to the VIEW. I had pancakes which were tasteless and hard as rock, suggesting no eggs, nor milk, nor great flour. I also ordered sausage which was not only unnecessarily spicy but lingered in my mouth for 10 min. We are in Amazing North Idaho Folks not Mexico! Horrible sausage quality which needs to be upgraded immediately. *** Allen our server was exceptional however and tried so hard to compensate for the lack of food quality. **SUGGESTION; Hire 2 exceptional chefs pay them well and get rid of the 4 currently in the kitchen! GET RID of the BAR-- and the new oversized Service Area -- RAISE THE OVERALL FOOD QUALITY and more folks will return. read more

Avoid this place at all cost. Food quality and service has gone downhill. Very slow service and overpriced. Peppercorn Steak was undercooked and underwhelming (picture is from the recooked steak on a small plate. Seriously?!) Ruby Red Trout was very dry and over cooked. Poor excuse from our waitress saying that the Christmas break had the kitchen overwhelmed (it was a Thursday 12/28/23 when we went). I wouldn't go back at all to Dockside. Overall get drinks and enjoy the ambience of the lake, not the overrated food and service. read more
