    Fish & chips with potato salad.
    Misty F.

    We were heading back to ship to eat after tirelessly looking for somewhere. The customs guard suggested Dolly's! We had walked right by it and didn't even notice you could eat there. We thought it was only shipping fish home. We went in and the staff were so nice and helpful! So willing to serve us and answer any questions we had. We opted to sit outside (it was a nice day), plenty of seating. The fish!!! Omg so absolutely delicious! We are so glad we made the walk again to try it because it did not disappoint! That fish was absolutely delicious! Perfectly crispy, nice flavor! The tartar sauce was Lovely! I chose the potato salad for my side, which was not good at all imo. But I'm used to different mayo so that could've been why. If we were locals we would eat here often! I would absolutely (and did tell ppl on our walk back to ship) tell ppl to eat at Dolly's! So delicious! Thank you, wishing you lots of success!

    Dungeoness crab with melted butter, yummy poutine

    Really great poutine and delicious dungeoness crab at reasonable prices. Super friendly service and outdoor seating. Great place for a casual meal before or after exploring Prince Rupert.

    I want to start with Prince Rupert is a very beautiful, green, flowery, seaside, small town. Our cruise was redirected here instead of Victoria. I don't think the restaurant was prepared for as many visitors as they got that day. The wait was long to be seated and the wait for the food was even longer! I even overheard the employees arguing with each other. The biscuit was amazing, I would pass on the chowder but the crab legs were good. I really didn't get to taste the poutine. It looks like it needs more cheese to me. The market has some good, interesting items.

    Some of the best fish and chips we've ever had ...we got the combo halibut and cod with chips...both types of fish were extremely fresh..doesn't hurt that the fishing boat docks are literally right there...they were seasoned and fried perfectly..not greasy but light and crispy ..we ordered another couple pieces since we were enjoying it so much.The fries were also fried perfectly...crispy outside and soft inside. The little fish market attached had some great fish,crab and grocery items that had me wishing we were staying there in an airbnb but we were in Prince Rupert on our cruise stop ...service was good and the food came in good time. Definitely go here if in Prince Rupert BC

    Absolutely the worst staff and service. When I first got there I went to a table to ask if I can sit down, the girl said yes. Then someone else came up and said I'm sorry you cannot sit there. That person is just a dishwasher and she doesn't know what she's talking about. Ok. So. Waiting another 10 minutes or so to be seated. Finally sat our group of 8. We waited 25 minutes for someone to come ask us if we wanted anything to drink. We ordered 2 waters, 4 Italian sodas and 2 alcohol drinks along with food. The drinks were watered down and tasteless. We were never told that the wait could take a while or anything. Our drinks came out about 10 minutes later. Which was fine we were enjoying our company and the scenery and our experience in Prince Rupert. We realized that an hour and 25 minutes had gone by and none of our food had come yet. And now we're realizing that we are about 45 minutes away from having to be back on the ship. A couple of us went inside to go find out what was going on with our order and we were told that they hadn't even started it yet. This is absolutely beyond ridiculous. Just sit and wait for an hour and 25 minutes and they don't even have our food order going yet. We told them to cancel because we wouldn't have time to eat it and enjoy it. Everyone around us was saying that they should comp our drinks because they all saw how long we were waiting. We asked four times to two different staff members to speak to a manager, and none of them seemed to be able to answer our question and said that she wasn't there. Finally out of no where, the lady came out who claimed she was the owner and said that she wasn't going to do anything to help us and that we just need to pay for our bill. We tried to explain to her our experience, and she said, she didn't care and that yes this is how she handles owning her restaurant. We explained why we felt a few drinks should have been comped as good gesture, she was incredibly rude and in my husbands face and said, "she did not care" and not once apologized for their lack of customer service. It's a shame this is how they treat their tourism and their travelers. They definitely did not care about us, especially since we are not locals. Dolly's was highly recommended from our trolly tour guide so we walked over there with high hope and expectations. As a travel agent, and having many clients traveling to this port, I definitely will not be recommending this place to anybody. There was only one ship in this port today. So if you were anticipating a busy crowd, maybe the owner should've staffed accordingly. Communication is definitely key, and it would have been nice if someone literally anyone that worked there explained to us that the wait was going to take over an hour and a half. Not one time did anybody come and ask us if we wanted refills or more water or anything. There are so many other options of restaurants in this area so I would definitely try something else if you're ever in this port.

    Delicious house wine

    So far the best at Prince Rupert. Fresh and delicious seafood to dine in and to take away . Joy Stew was a very great host providing excellent service. Very affordable and great portions .

    Clam Chowder
    Annie W.

    I came to Dolly's to continue my seafood adventure. I've heard great things about the clam chowder but I was a bit disappointed with what I was presented with. However, I did enjoy the Dungeness crab and would like to come back again to try out other seafood dishes. Here's what I ordered: 1. Oven Roasted Garlic Dungeness Crab (Half): Absolutely amazing! The crab was fresh and went very well with the hot butter. BUT eating it was time consuming because of all the shell you have to break off so if you're not a patient person, then this dish might not be for you! 2. Clam Chowder: I thought the dish had nice flavours, but didn't think it was worth the hype. It wasn't very creamy and tasted a bit watered-down.

    I really wanted clam chowder and I originally wanted to try Smiles. Smiles was closed so I ended up going to Dolly's. Dolly's was ok. I ordered the clam chowder. It was not creamy. It was very watery but it did have a very strong butter taste. Not the creamy taste. Also it didn't have a lot of clams either. The chowder was lacking the seafood taste or smell in it. I have had better clam chowder in San Fran and Oregon where their clam chowders are known to be at the top. I can't really compare Dolly's to those places. But any restaurants in Vancouver would out beat Dolly's easily. I would say someone from PR would give this place 4 stars. But I would say they are ok. Chowder is one of the hardest thing to make that takes a lot of time. In order, to get the flavor out it takes a lot of time to cook it. Yes it does uses a lot of butter. I came here another time and I got the Cod and Chips. The cod and chips was really good. The cod was very meaty and it was very fresh. They are known for their fish and chips in PR.
