^ Still this. Gave it another try today, just over a year later.

$39 for the Live Free or Fry, which no longer comes with crab cakes. 3 scallops, 3 medium shrimp, 3 haddock pieces, and a few small belly clams.

Sad face.

* Edited to add: my friends got the haddock sandwich, which was still solid.

Think, u need to tell them that you're writing a column for some media outlet. Bet you get better service and all the clam cakes you can eat!

The service was very slow, but I'm totally cool with that—I feel the same about eating out as I do about boating: I'm there to chill.

Lackluster food/value, though? That's no bueno.

Went there twice for dinner this yet. Both nights were slow, and service was even slower. Food was terrible. Two strikes and they r out. Never going back, new owners suck. Don’t waste your money there!!!

New owners?….since when? I went at least a half dozen times this summer and as recent as three weeks ago. Every time we were there food was very good and service was good considering how busy they were every time there!

This is why I hate the restaurant review forum on this site! Anyone with a grudge can literally try and ruin the business of hard working people!

I have never and will never give a restaurant a bad review here or on any other public forum as food and service is so individually personalized.

If I don’t like a place I simply won’t go back…no need to go on public forum and try to ruin them…that is just mean spirited in my opinion especially during these trying times….

The Dockside is part of our regular eating out rotation. For us both the food and service has been very good. And we like their Red Sky ale. My you are cranky.

That sounds like an awesome plate of food at a great value! I will check them out! Hopefully they do not waste a ton of money on giving you an over abundance of french fries that every customer tosses out
