    We needed a place open on a Monday after a wake. I stumbled onto District 37, and what a great…read morefind!! They accepted a reservation for a party of 12, they welcomed us warmly, with empathy for the circumstances. They served us quickly and efficiently. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was friendly, the service was quick and organized, and the owner, Tom was very gracious!! I highly recommend and we will definitely be sure to go back there again!!

    I don't make it out to North Tonawanda often, but recently I had an event in the area so I took…read morethat opportunity to stop into District 37 afterward for dinner! Their Detroit-style pizza is REALLY good, you definitely should order one if you go, but that night, I wanted to try something else. All-in-all, a good experience, albeit a little pricey for what I got. About 7:30pm on a Wednesday, I found a parking spot across the street, right by the entrance. As I walked in, I was greeted by a nice, young hostess who immediately seated me at a table. Not long after that, my waitress for the evening, Brooke, came over with menus and water. Brooke was great - Friendly, checked in regularly, was knowledgeable about the menu! I whittled down the menu to three choices and she helped me decide with a great recommendation. With dinner ordered, I sat back and took in the ambiance - Plenty of TVs with sports on, classic rock music playing over the speakers, and LOTS of people enjoying the evening. This place was just as packed a year ago when I came, but this time, the staff were way more synchronized! Maybe 10 minutes later, my dinner arrived - I was impressed with the quick turnaround time! For dinner, I went with their Pimento Chicken Sandwich (crispy battered chicken breast topped with a house-made pimento cheese, sweet & spicy pickles, and Alabama white sauce, between a toasted brioche bun) with a side of fries. The sandwich was great - The pimento cheese was creamy with a nice "zing", the sweet & spicy pickles were plentiful and not too sweet, not too spicy and had a decent crunch, and the Alabama white sauce married it all together. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the toasted bun held it all together with ease. The side of fries were cooked perfectly and nicely seasoned but I was a little disappointed with the portion of fries. For over $20, I was expecting a little more, if I'm being honest. The quality was excellent but I would've liked either a little bigger chicken breast for the sandwich or more fries - The metal "boat" they were served in is small, at least to me it seemed small. District 37 is a solid restaurant in North Tonawanda! It's full of energy, friendly staff, plenty of drinks, and good food. I'm glad I had one of their sandwiches, it was very good! But for the price, I wish the portions were a little more. Next time I come though, I'll probably order another one of their Detroit-style pizzas, they're soo good!

Our server checked my ID when I ordered a drink, which was perfectly fine, but didn't even acknowledge that it was my birthday. Not a huge issue, but it would have been a nice touch. Service was also inconsistent. My mom's Diet Pepsi was forgotten when our drinks were brought out, although the server did bring water for the table, which I appreciated. The appetizer was delicious and was honestly the highlight of the meal. Unfortunately, my entrée was where things went downhill. I ordered the twin filets cooked medium, but both arrived very well done. I mentioned it to our server, who took them back for a remake. When the replacement came out, it was served on a piece of lettuce for presentation, but the steaks were still not cooked correctly. One was medium rare, which I was willing to accept at that point, but the other was once again well done. I brought it to the server's attention a second time, and I was told a manager would be stopping by our table. That never happened. Instead, the entrée was simply removed from the bill. While I appreciate not being charged for a meal that wasn't prepared correctly, I was disappointed that no one came to speak with me or offered an alternative entrée so I could actually have dinner. The impression I was left with was, "We'll take it off the bill and move on," rather than making an effort to fix the situation. It's unfortunate because the two guests dining with me thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Sadly, I ended up leaving hungry on my own birthday. That's not the experience I was hoping for, and it's why I can't recommend Dockside Bar & Grill based on this visit. To make matters worse, after sharing my experience in a comment on the restaurant's Facebook page, my comment was deleted and I was blocked from their business page. Rather than addressing customer concerns or attempting to resolve issues, they chose to silence feedback. In my opinion, that's not good business practice and only added to my disappointment with the overall experience. Constructive criticism should be an opportunity to improve, not something to hide from potential customers. EDIT TO ADD AFTER MANAGEMENT RESPONSE: If you truly wanted to take full ownership of the situation, then either you or a member of your management team would have come to my table last night to speak with me, as our server advised would happen. Simply removing an item from the bill does not constitute fully taking ownership of what you referred to as a "human mistake." As for being blocked from your Facebook page, that's fine. Based on both my experience at your restaurant and your response afterward, I have no intention of returning. What is particularly disappointing is that after I posted my initial comment about my experience, no one from management attempted to contact me privately. You could have easily sent a Facebook message to discuss what happened and address my concerns. Instead, my comment was deleted and I was blocked from your business page. Your handling of customer feedback demonstrates a lack of hospitality and professionalism. Had there been better communication when the issue occurred, I likely would not have felt compelled to leave a negative review in the first place. The problem was never just the food or the mistake itself--it was how the situation was handled afterward. I can now better understand why other reviewers have commented on management's reactions to criticism. Word-of-mouth remains one of the most powerful forms of advertising. Unfortunately, negative experiences and poor customer service tend to spread much faster than positive ones. Since you chose to remove my feedback, block me from your page, fail to follow up after I had already attempted to address the issue while still in your establishment, and suggest that simply taking an item off the bill was "taking ownership," I will be sharing my experience with others and recommending that they think twice before choosing your "on the water" dining experience. You asked why I wouldn't call you to discuss making things right. The answer is simple: you had the opportunity to do that last night. I was already there, willing to discuss the issue, and was told that management would speak with me. That conversation never happened.

    Was Just there last Tuesday to celebrate a friend's birthday and holy wow it was crowded. Turns out…read morethere was some sort of corporate event thing happening, lots of 20 and 30 somethings wearing name tags snagging food off trays passed by waitstaff. Someone stuck a plate of meatballs in front of my face so of course I took one. Quite tasty. Loved loved loved the eggplant stack appetizer, but be sure to eat it all at the restaurant because it does not reheat nicely when you're home later on. I also had the chicken piccata which was on a bed of couscous and artichokes. Different, but tasty. Needed salt and pepper. My friends ordered some sort of a pasta dish and some sort of a salmon dish. They both liked their food. I tried my friends brussels sprouts and Jesus Christ. They were the best sprouts I've ever had. We did not order dessert because apparently Chef had prepared too many teeny tiny cups of banana pudding for the corporate event, and our server brought a few over for us to sample. How nice. I don't even like banana pudding. But I ate it, because of course I did.

The restaurant itself has class with a rustic look with the boat chains for shelf in the bar and the original floors. Overall this is a restaurant to try when in the north Tonawanda area.
