Best Waterfront Restaurants in Lakewood Ranch

Excellent service! Sever was 5+ starts. The atmosphere was perfect at sunset. Got a great table due to our reservation. Food was good but smaller portions. Would go back!!!

We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Dry Dock for Valentine’s Day. The restaurant was busy but the team had everything under control. We were greeted immediately and taken care of promptly at the bar for cocktails as we waited a very short time for our table. Our server was informative and efficient and went above and beyond to make us feel at home and understand the menu. Our food was amazing The snapper served right off the grill and the side veggies perfectly cooked. The jambalaya was piping hot and delicious. No room for dessert this time but the key lime pie was so tempting! 5 ⭐️

The food was delicious & portions were generous. Service was perfect & friendly! Food prices were reasonable (for the great quality) but drink prices were pretty high. We sat out on the patio (on the parking lot side). The music was a bit loud, which made it difficult to hear conversations with our guests. We probably should have just asked our server if she could turn it down a bit, but didn’t think to do that. Overall, it was a great dining experience with an easy solution…talk louder & drink less ;)

A group of Cincinnati friends meet here for lunch every February because we know we can count on easy reservations, good seating, great food and better service. This year was no different. I am a little concerned about your new policy of requiring a credit card for a reservation and the server told us he was only supposed to do 4 checks per table. He did do separate checks for us this time….but if that becomes a firm requirement, we may have to find another place. The 22% gratuity is reasonable and should be enough to cover separate checks. And most of us added an extra tip too.

Waitress was phenomenal! Sadly forget her name. We had reservations right at sunset, they were completely packed and still got us in right on time. Drinks were ok but to be fair we each tried “out of the box” options for ourselves so we when we return we’ll be giving those another shot. The grouper sandwich was right hand to god one of the best fish sandwiches I’ve had in my life. I’ve written 2 reviews my whole life but that sandwich alone made me want to express my gratitude and appreciate for the beautiful staff and crew at this location. Will be returning !
