Dockside Restaurant

1.20.26: It's been hard to find a place that has a salad bar, so when I heard Dockside offered AYCE salad bar for $17 bucks I knew I had to check it out. We came for lunch and it wasn't busy at all. Our server came and took our drink order and I let her know 2 of us came for the salad bar, to which she said we could start right away. My friend ordered the Icon Burger, which is their 40th anniversary burger made with ground filet mignon. The salad bar was pretty basic, nothing extravagant, offering 2 types of lettuce, and the main staples you'd see on a typical salad, for example: tomato, cucumber, garbanzo beans, peas, red onions, shredded carrots, shredded cheeses, hard boiled eggs, olives, beets, and more. There were a couple of pasta salads, cottage cheese, and pistachio pineapple cream salad. There were 6 different salads dressings as well as oil and vinegar. What I enjoyed and appreciated is that all the ingredients were fresh--nothing looked old or wilted. My friend really enjoyed his filet mignon burger and said the fries were perfectly cooked and had a great season. I included a picture description of his yummy burger. We all know I love dessert, so I ordered one of their signature "Gooeys," the Magical Unicorn Gooey and boy was I in for a crazy magical treat lol. It was all my 8-year-old heart could have imagined and more! My friend ordered the Skillet Cookie and his mom got the Mountain Berry Cobbler. I will say every dessert ordered could have easily been shared between 2-3 people and all were really delicious. I'm trying not to write so much, something I'm also known for, so check out the picture descriptions of what we had. I will definitely be back for breakfast as I want to try their Lemon Berry Pancakes, Bubble Crepes, and Falafel Benedict.

Hubby and I were in town for Dr appointments. Decided to try out the restaurant part ( usually enjoy the 21 and up section) since it was cold and Rainey outside. Atmosphere was bright and clean , nice view of the lake. But to be honest if you don’t have kids with you I’d prefer outside sitting when the weather permits. Not because of the service just the noise level. Hubby and I were seated by a group of 10 with probably 5 kids and heaping serving of desert goodness! Obviously maybe why they were so noisy but not really the restaurants fault. Although I would suggest not sitting a couple by a group like that. We love ordering the calamari, steak endless buffet salad and blueberry cobbler was perfect on that rainy day! Service was great. Did not have to wait for water/ drink refills. If you are not staying at the hotel totally fine too. You can still valet your car for convenience. Will definitely come back !

We went for my birthday and the food was wonderful, as always. We got their seasonal gooey (apple pie edition) and it had pie filling, crunchy bites, caramel, donut bites, vanilla & cinnamon ice cream. They gave me a complimentary little sundae for my birthday too. Their French dip was amazing! I am very particular with dips because I don’t want them to be soggy, and this one was A+. Highly recommend. I wanted to add: I’ve had their clam chowder many times and it’s phenomenal!!
