Fabulous setting in the marina. Love the selection of food! Have been several times and enjoyed it all Especially like the stuffed mushrooms, seafood dishes, and lemon curd panna cota for dessert Peach old fashions are awesome read more

We went to the dockside to celebrate a birthday. They were busy so we made a reservation in their pelican lounge. It sits apart from their main restaurant and while nice it does not have the same vibe As always the food was very good. Once again I was disappointed by the waitress to the point of tainting the meal Disappointed read more

First, the menu and food are amazing, and they accommodate gluten allergy and vegetarian needs too! Then the amazing views and outstanding service top it off for a high end yet coastal casual dining experience. Thank you! read more

I love this restaurant whenever I get to visit. My grandmother, who is a Sequim resident, takes our family here when we come to visit. I love the starter salad with pistachio dressing, and the five cheese ravioli pasta which comes with a generous amount of seafood. Can't forget the desserts, either... so many delicious options presented on a tray. I usually opt for the Affogato. Definitely make a reservation in advance. read more

This little dockside (reserve table in advance) restaurant cranks out beautifully prepared beef & seafood dinners with a touch of elegance in a casual and unique atmosphere. If the main dining room is full, you'll be in an equally unique upstairs bar-like room (no dockside view). Consistently great service and exceptional food. Dress up or rock your tidy casuals. Both work in this super -special Sequim gem. read more

Great food, service and atmosphere! This is our go to for showing off Sequim to others when they visit.

We love coming here when it's cold and grey, just the two of us, for a quiet bowl of some of the greatest chowder on the planet, some sourdough bread and wine. We also really enjoy a big family dinner here; the last time they put us in the John Wayne room around the side, which is splendid. There is a nice harbor view and we get the direct attention of our hilarious and fabulous bartender. The Bouillabaisse is incredible, so fresh. The cedar plank salmon is excellent, it has a delicate little crust and opens into a rich perfectly done salmon surrounded by beautiful roasted vegetables. The cedar plank ribeye is also excellent. The only bummer is that hours are limited but that is par for the course for most restaurants up in Sequim. The history of this place is pretty neat too. read more

Dockside Grill - We've been to the Pelican Room to dine and no one at the time could tell us who these OGs are. Anyone? This looks like a good story. - Seafood Near Me - Sequim, Washington

Lovely dinner with our neighbors at Dockside Grill! I am rather surprised at how high the prices are! Duck: $60. Halibut: $80. Steak: $110. Ouch. I felt a bit bad since our neighbors were treating us! We started with coconut shrimp and fried green beans for appetizers. The coconut shrimp were ok. They were a bit overfried. The fried green beans were excellent. All four of us shared both appetizers. I ordered the duck and despite asking for medium to medium rate, the duck was well done. Nonetheless it was tasty, just cooked more than what I requested. My table mates all enjoyed their mains and we ordered two desserts: crème brûlée and a semifredo that wasn't in the dessert display. Both were yummy. read more

We have eaten here 4 or 5 times and love it. The service and food are always amazing. read more

I do not say this lightly: this is the best seafood restaurant I've ever been to. The location is cozy and picturesque. The service is professional and 5 star. But all of these things don't matter if the food isn't amazing. I tried three items here and for one of the few times in my life, I could find absolutely nothing to criticize. The portions are very large for the price. I got used to fancy restaurants in the city they charge 30 bucks for an appetizer the size of a small snack. Nothing they serve here gives any impression of cutting corners or shaving costs. It is respectful of your wallet and experience as a diner in a way I rarely see in restaurants of this style. One of my previous favorites (Ray's in Seattle) serves a similar dish to the crab gratinee: however, it is more expensive, half the size, and comes with a few shavings of Dungeness. Here the gratinee comes with a stack of perfectly toasted bread complete with butter, parsley, and cheese, and has chunks of crab the size of shrimp tails in it. The oysters Rockefeller layered more flavors and textures than I thought possible. The oysters were big and juicy (because of course this kitchen would not serve tiny oysters even in a bake) and covered in cheese, bacon, and spinach. It was savory and rich but somehow also did not obscure the natural flavor and texture of the oyster. Everything was coherent and delicious. The cioppino had a rich soup base that was hearty and spicy and, of course, was packed with scallops, clams, mussel, and crab. I would get everything I had this visit again, but I also need to try more of their expansive menu. This is a must visit location and a surprising gem on the outskirts of a small town. read more

Such amazing food! Really enjoyed the meals I've eaten here and the service is great. I never leave disappointed. Just wishing I would have licked the plate... read more

I placed the order online over the phone to go for an order of calamari about a half hour before they closed and I told him I would be there in 20 minutes to get it when I arrived. They made me wait. The lady collected my $30 didn't give me my change handled other people didn't acknowledge this year. Give me my change when I finally got my food. Upon opening up, the condiments, plastic lid was completely melted yet cold so it melted and then solidified I won't go back. I got my change back. I still tipped her two dollars for just boxing it up and that's what I got. read more

Would absolutely come back. Service was excellent and great food. I bet there is a great view too, but we came when it was dark. Dockside grill if very much out of our way (we live in the south sound) but I'd come back anytime read more

We came to Dockside for my husband's birthday and requested a table in the Pelican Room since it's his favorite. The food was fabulous, as always. However, we arrived 20 minutes early at 5:10 for a 5:30 reservation and were made to wait outside on the dock--even though there were only two tables seated in the Pelican section. Thank goodness it wasn't raining. Service was adequate but not warm and welcoming like in the past, which was disappointing for a special occasion. Our bill for two came to $275 (with tip, $348). Overall, while the food was excellent, the handling of our arrival and the lack of warmth from the staff put a damper on the evening. Sadly, we probably won't risk another special celebration here. read more

We always stop here when we are in Sequim. They are very courteous and professional and the food is excellent.

What we ordered was fantastic. Fiona took excellent care of us as well as other support staff. Sorry we didn't know your name. Calamari appetizer was a perfect starter. The Bouillabaisse was flavorful with lots of seafood. Salmon salad with the pistachio dressing was also very good. Dungeness burger tasty also filled with lots of crab meat. The restaurant overlooks the marina which made for a pleasant view during our meal. read more

I'm so glad we returned here after many years. The food is really good. We had mushroom ravioli with a great cream sauce and tasty grilled chicken, salmon salad with no hint of fishyness, and a bowl of clam chowder that was right up there with the best. The servings are generous. Our server, Patty, was very pleasant and helpful. Our bill came to $69 plus tax and tip. Note that we had no liquor or dessert which can really run up a bill. read more

If you're looking for seafood in an old school by the bay Fish restaurant, then come here. Dockside has been going strong for decades for a good reason.(s) We had terrific service from I think it was Nate/Matt. He takes care of my mom and her companion for Sunday brunch often. top shelf service The views are lovely. We even had a couple of seals swim nearby as we enjoyed our visit I love mushrooms, especially chanterelles, but I would encourage them to offer it with just a simple, garlic, olive oil, and Rosemary. You don't get to enjoy them when it's full of this cream sauce. It's just basically creamy mush with Parmesan butter toast. So it's just too many flavors. Very rich We added some balsamic vinegar on top which was a great way to contrast the richness Not much for a vegan except maybe simple salad. I love how they take care of my mom and her friend every Sunday. I appreciate the warm, welcoming and the great service. The views and the old school charm of the place are additional pluses Hopefully they will offer some of the vegetable specials with an option of olive oil and garlic instead of cream / butter read more

Best restaurant in Washington state. The chef is a magician. Beautiful, non-pretentious atmosphere.

Perhaps the best Restaurant in Sequim. Hands down. Hard to get in, check their hours, totally worth it. The location is excellent, easy parking, the ambiance was wonderful (count the pelicans) but overall the food is why we keep returning. Everything is good. read more

We found this little gem when we stayed a night in Sequim. Since we didn't have reservations, we sat at their little bar to wait for our table. The drinks were very good and they made them to our specifications. At the table we asked for a large salad to share and we each got something different for the entree. I got the Northwest cioppino, another got the halibut with crab meat and I think the third person in our party got fettuccine and shrimp. My cioppino was very generous with the seafood. We were all very content with our meal and the service was very friendly. We all remarked what a great find this was! read more

Food was good, service not so much. We were even called as we were parking because we were 9 minutes late. Only reason we were late is because of the highway construction that we were unaware of, as well as new to the area. After our arrival the front desk host seated us, against a back wall, without view, where there were clearly other tables with window views. Grrrr. Our mistake for not mentioning that we would prefer a view at a seaside place early dinner. We brought our own wine which was a saving grace, however our waiter was not attentive in stopping by our table, therefore we continued to pour our own wine... not the worst issue, but with the prices? He only stopped by once to see if we needed anything, never offering to repour our empty glasses. Grrr. Short of never recommending Dockside in Sequim, the dinner was very good, however our waiter and host needs a bit of training to provide services expected in a well established resturant. read more

We eat here often as locals and it is always a fresh exquisite menu with friendly waitstaff and superb cooks. Anything you order is sure to please! read more

My friend and I asked for a recommendation from a local for seafood and she directed us here. I checked the website and it said nothing about reservations. We arrived on a Tuesday evening and were told there were no tables for 2 hours since we had no reservations. We noticed two open bar seats and they said bluntly that they didn't want to overtax the kitchen. While we waited for food to go, a party of 7 came in without a reservation and were seated within 5 minutes. Was part of the reason that one of us is a person of color? We received two bowls of clam chowder to go. No crackers so we had to go back to ask for some. The chowder was delicious but the service left a bad taste in our mouths. read more

Exquisite! Real food. Fresh. Great atmosphere. We are visiting from out of town but will definitely keep this restraint on the list when we visit in the future. read more

Sequim's best place for seafood and fantastic service! So happy we have such Ana amazing place in this little town!

I've been here three or four times before. Very fresh, and well prepared seafood. I had crab stuffed mushrooms, and crab stuffed halibut. Both were amazing. I had a dessert with frozen white chocolate mousse that was really good also. The views are great, service was spot on. Definitely pricey, but it's worth it.. make sure you call for a reservation! read more

Service excellent and food delicious. We had the Cioppino which was chock full of seafood and tasted wonderful. We also had the fried fish and chips, salmon, and a burger which were all very tasty. The members of our party were impressed by the lovely view and the wonderful food! read more

Terrific food! Wonderful and attentive staff! Amazing location. Our best dining experience in Sequim!

Glad we decided to visit this place for our lunch. We called ahead and inquired if they would be able to accommodate a few vegetarians in our group and they gladly agreed. Our table for 9 was ready when we arrived. For drinks they had a pretty elaborate selection including seasonal ones. Fleur Goblins was a favorite on our table. For appetizers we went with the two mushroom appetizers they had on the seasonal menu and the green string beans. We loved the green string beans. For entrees we got a couple of mushroom raviolis (they gladly served it with roasted seasonal veggies instead of chicken), fettuccine alfredos and chefs tacos. The cream sauce of the raviolis was so flavorful. They also served us freshly baked bread upon request. They had quite an exquisite selection for desserts. We opted for mud pie and crème brûlée. Ambiance is cozy and the view is great. Service was extremely patient, attentive and friendly. read more

Been there many times, but it had been a while. We were in the area. They are currently open noon to 4p, so we ended up having lunch. The menu was similar to a dinner menu. Everything was so good. Started with calamari that was enough to share came with cocktail sauce and a little salad with homemade balsamic vinaigrette. We ate everything g on the plate. Main menu was a seafood salad with crab, prawns, scallops. I had the expresso rubbed ribeye which was excellent. Came with some little potatoes and a zucchini and yellow squash medley. We finished lunch with crème brûlée and a Affogato. Didn't have to eat the rest of the day! Everything was fresh, wine was good. Highly recommend, service is good, place is small, reservation deco Mended. never disappointed. Can't wait til next time read more

Went for a late lunch and only had to wait about 10 minutes. No problem, we walked on the outside deck and looked at the water. We were seated in the back room, which was unfortunate, but our server was made up for it. She was always smiling and very attentive to all of us in the room. We had the special which was an open face wagyu steak sandwich with au jus. It was delicious. We started with a house salad with blue cheese and the salad was crisp and fresh with a bit of stick carrots and cherry tomatoes and some sprouts on top. It was very good. I had 2 glasses of the merlot and it was so tasty and generous pours! We loved our lunch so much that we even talked about going back for dinner. Unfortunately they close at 4p. read more

Called multiple times to Make reservations, no one answered. I came down in person and they refused to seat us without a reservation. Went later in the night and food was subpar. I do not recommend. To much hype and poor customer service. read more

I ordered an "off menu" special, that was claimed to be halibut and Dungeness crab, what I got was Alaskan cod, and crab! Then it was overpriced for even halibut! The other order was prawns and fettuccine, which was 3 prawns and runny fettuccine sauce. I feel that my dish was more than double the price than what it should have been! read more

Edited we did not eat there because we wanted a dog friendly place. Thought this was because in Yelp amenites listing it says Dogs Allowed. Apparently Yelp puts in the words with an X in front to say dogs not allowed. Think they can do better, but may not be restaurants fault. So I removed the low rating. Clallam county really needs some decent outdoor dining, not picnic tables on the side walk. sign outside says no pets, even though listing says dogs allowed. read more

What a 360 from a year ago! Service, quality, selection and great execution. We'll definitely be back

We went here on our last night living in the PNW last year. It was highly recommended by my coworkers and I would suggest it all the time to our guests.... But I never actually tried the place! Every guest that would come back happy and say the food was amazing and a great place for seafood. The service was great as well. You get a beautiful view of the water on the marina. I can see why people like this place... the food was delicious. To start we got calamari and it was crispy and light. The breading wasn't heavy at all. I got the Northwest Cioppino and my husband got the steak. The seafood in the Cioppino just melts in your mouth! I loved everything about it, especially with the variety of seafood in the dish (salmon, scallops, mussels, and shrimp. The seafood was cooked to perfection and tasted fresh. My husband ordered the Cedar Planked Rib-eye. Upon my husband getting his steak, we were a little confused as to why it looked burnt. The description says rubbed with coffee and spices so that explained why it was a little dark on the outside. When he cut it, it was cooked to his liking and he really enjoyed his meal! We ended our meal with the Chocolate Mousse and Crème Brûlée. Everything about our dessert choices did not disappoint. Overall, the presentation was beautiful and the food was yummy. This would be the one place to check out when visiting the Olympic Peninsula! read more
