    We love this place so much. The breadsticks are delicious. I really like the flatbread! It usually…read moretakes a little while to receive our food, but it's worth it! Our servers our usually helpful and kind. On the topic of the surroundings, it's honestly very cozy in here. Most of the time, it's a moderate noise level, but it depends on the majority of the people there, of course. Overall, fantastic!! I would definitely suggest this place if you're close to Lakeland.

We found the reservation and ahead of time and told them how many so that they would be prepared for us. We got there they didn't have enough seating so some of our party had to sit in a booth that wasn't at the main table and they weren't included. The service was very slow. Understandably we were a large party but they still didn't have enough servers to cover the party because we had to wait a very long time to have our orders taken and waited even longer to get our food. Once we FINALLY got our food there were multiple people that did not like their food because it came out cold, or it was prepared wrong. The fries were unbelievably cold and tasted like rubber. The burgers were ice cold, and the burgers werent better than a fast food burger. Food was awful and the servers tried but it took so long to order and get our food. They were closed before we were able to finish and we got there 1.5 hours BEFORE they closed. So we shouldnt have had to race to eat because they were closed. I told them to take my food off because I wasn't eating cold nasty food and the kitchen was closed because of how long it took. So they took the charge off, which the charged me the wrong price to begin with, but because we were a party over 6 they charged me a service fee to sit there and not eat. I literally had to pay a fee even though I wasn't able to eat anything and didn't get any food. I also can't believe that they serve $18 cheeseburgers on a cutting board! You can see where people have cut into the boards and germs can live for a very LONG time on surfaces. Not to mention you can't really clean or sterilize a wooden cutting board. Especially since it's passed around with who knows how many people have eaten off of them. Why would you serve an $18+ burger on an old beaten up wooden cutting board!!! This was the second time we've gone and both times the food was awful. I wouldn't recommend this place, EVER!

    BLUF: Consistently exceptional food and service located at a dry dock (dry boat storage)…read moreoverlooking the water. I love Dry Dock Waterfront Grill and I always visit when I am in the Sarasota area. Dry Dock is always busy so I am also sure to make a reservation in advance using Open Table. Typically we sit inside but I know the back patio is popular too. If your timing and patience is perfect, you can also get a nice a nice window seat in the dining room that has sweeping views of Sarasota Bay. The inside atmosphere is bright and airy and although airy often translates to loud, Dry Dock thoughtfully put noise dampening panels on the ceiling. As far as food, I don't think you can go wrong. I always get something with grouper whether it be an entree, sandwich or tacos. On my most recent visit I got the grouper filet with coconut shrimp because I had originally been eyeing up the coconut shrimp as an appetizer. Ultimately, we decided to get the rock crab claws for an appetizer which were good but more work than I planned even though they were pre-cracked. I felt like a Neanderthal trying to eat those crab claws in such a nice restaurant. No offense to the Neanderthals, of course! I have no idea what my husband had as it disappeared. After entrees, apps and bread, we were too stuffed for dessert. I think our server was Cari and she was awesome! Attentive, friendly, funny and quite possibly a mind reader and magician. She saw the hanger in my eyes and made bread magically appear. I hope I got her name correct because she was superb! Shout out to all of the great staff members at Dry Dock -we've never had a bad experience. I love Dry Dock and it will forever stay in my Sarasota rotation.
