I might be jaded, but my family enjoyed the Dry Dock, but no one was in a rush to come back for another try later in the week. Pretty much classic seafood joint with a reputation for Calamari, which we found to be average at best. Not a must do, but a good place to eat one day on a... more

Late check in at resort on a Saturday night, host recommended Dry Dock. What a way to start a vacation. This place kinda' set the bar for our evenings out. Let me begin by saying the bartender definely has a heavy hand. After a long day of air travel from New Mexico, we really appreciated the hospitality. The wait staff... more

Went to Dry Dock tonight the boyfriend. I got the shrimp and crab cake, he got the grouper (blackened). All of the seafood was cooked very well. The setting is surprisingly nice but it was raining when we went so we didn't get the best view. It seems that the house specialties were their pasta dishes and the grouper. We... more

The food at the Dry Dock was delicious! We got seated after about 20 minutes on a Wednesday evening. Our waitress was peppy and patient, even though it was evident she was quite busy. Even though she warned us the kitchen was really busy, the food came within a very reasonable amount of time. I appreciated the menu which included... more

My wife and I ate at Dry Dock a few years ago, and we returned this past week. It was so good, we went twice in three days. From the host at the door, to the bartender, to our wait staff, the friendliness and efficiency of the service was second to none. And so was the food. Do not miss... more

I always try to have lunch at the Dry Dock when I'm in Sarasota. It's one of my favorite seafood restaurants there. The service has been very good and I enjoy the food. I would also recommend the fried clams. more

We sat in a perfect seat surrounded by windows so our view was wonderful. Our waitress was not very attentive and we had to ask what the specials were and ask for bread, both of which she offered right away to tables around us. The price of the food did not match the quantity or quality at all. I am... more

We had dinner here during our recent trip to Sarasota, and we highly recommend it. We waited about an hour for our table, but the jumbo gulf shrimp and scallops were awesome. We sat on the outside patio and watched the full moon rise over Sarasota. Service was top notch. more

Was looking for someplace to eat on longboat key as we drove from Anna Maria Island. I had read reviews for this place and it was the first one we saw. Pulled in and it really is a dry dock, wasn't really sure where it was. We had to wait about an hour on a sat nite, but that was... more
