Had the seafood Mac and cheese and enchilada last night and it was the best Mac & cheese ever!!! My friend went a bit heavy on the Tabasco on her enchilada and Joanne was awesome about making sure we had water and extra napkins to handle the heat!!! This morning I had the stuffed French toast. The bread was so soft and it was stuffed with lemon ricotta cheese! Delish! My friend had the breakfast burrito (again with the Tabasco haha) and it was so soft and cheesy! Awesome!! Krista was great about keeping our coffee cup full and she rocked! We highly recommend this place!!! Great atmosphere and awesome food!!! Best food on Cape Vincent!!!

My husband and I usually make it to Coal Docks a few times per summer for breakfast. The outside of…read morethe restaurant doesn't look like much, but the inside is welcoming. The décor features old photos, postcards, and maps from around Jefferson County. There is a good selection of breakfast items, with a "lighter side" and a la carte items available. I usually order the make your own frittata (choose your own veggies/meats) which comes with potatoes, a slice of toast, and a side of fruit. Husband is a big fan of the breakfast burrito. Don't expect diner prices because the food is good quality and well portioned, and you won't be hungry 30 minutes later. I've never been disappointed with a meal here, though we've only had breakfast. I wish they'd offer a few more meatless options for lunch and dinner. Service is always friendly but can be a little slow at times if there is just one server. Luckily it's a nice place to hang out and drink an extra cup of coffee. At the register you can purchase sweets, biscuits, or bread, depending on the day. Sometimes there is local honey or other interesting stuff for sale too. One last note: Coal Docks has been closed randomly when their hours state that they're open. I highly suggest following them on Facebook to keep up on closings and daily specials.

The wait for a table took awhile at 12:45, but it was worth it. The service was excellent and the food was delicious. Whenever I go to eat out, my favorite lunch to order is a Rueben sandwich. I ordered it today, and it was probably the best I have ever had! It was generous in quantity, well prepared, cooked just right, and delicious! We'll be back.

First off, their website is odd. Not much information, quite confusing, sometimes it won't even load (on mobile device), so if you're trying to make a reservation, call them directly. Location, beautiful, along the river, great outdoor seating. I'm sure dinner and sunset is stunning. Good, it was okay. We ordered kids breakfast, huevos rancheros skillet thing, chicken and waffles, biscuit and gravy, and the whisky flight. The huevos ranchero was good, nothing to rave over but good. The chicken and waffles didn't come with syrup at first, I'm sure it was a mistake. The biscuit and gravy... looked amazing, but the biscuits were hard. Like rock hard, and even after sitting in the gravy, no moisture would come back. Haha Service... the lady was so sweet, but she kept forgetting us, she would place hot things right in front of the baby where she would easily grab it. She had a hard time splitting the bill. Ultimately we had to ask another waitress for water refill and splitting our bill. Maybe we will go back... but not in a rush.

We ended up having a great conversation with the sweet 87 year old owner and a plan to go back to try more of their food! The chili we had was a very good traditional chili. It came with some delicious homemade corn bread. The corn bread was a little on the sweet side, just the way I like it. Speaking with the owner we found out that she makes the desserts from scratch, including the pie crusts! She also makes the tomato sauce, lasagna, meatballs and everything is fresh and not frozen. Excited to go back and try some of the other food dishes! After hearing about the desserts, we tried the carrot cake and the banana cream pie. Both were good, but that banana cream pie, can't wait to go back and have another slice!

When we told her we only had 3 people vs. 4 in our reservation, she was kinda rude, saying, "so we're down to 3 now.? Really, does that really matter as most tables are for 4 anyways. Our waitress Jocelyn was great, but too bad she had to deliver the food we ordered. The steak and Gorgonzola flat bread was missing the steak. When I asked about it, our waitress age and quickly took it back to the kitchen and subsequently returned with it. She was told the steak is in there, underneath the cheese, NOT! They didn't offer to take this off my bill or offer anything else, instead they gave me takeout container of extra meat. I guess I'm supposed to make my own flatbread with the leftovers. Another person in our party ordered the coconut shrimp salad, which came with 3 shrimp at a cost of $22. I really wanted the special, 8 oz. filet mingon with 2 scallops, $68. Had to pass on that.
