    Great food with a view.

    This one will be a keeper for us. We ate on their covered porch which was open to the dock and river. The fans kept the air moving and the waitress let us eat at our own rate. We understand the bar area has music...More

    An Excellent Blast from the Past

    Nice waterfront view

    We were recommended to eat here by the docent from the Refuge house museum. They have a nice happy hour with half price appetizers and discount drinks. The shrimp and cheese appetizer was quite good despite the fact it didn't sound like it should work....More

    Dinner for 18, Part #2

    We had dinner at the Dolphin on Friday, July 22nd, after my father in-law's funeral. Staff was amazing, we had everything we could possibly need. I ordered the coconut shrimp. They were just OK, not great. My husband said his shrimp alfredo was amazing, though!...More

    Love the $5 salad bar with entree

    They have a fabulous $5 salad bar when you add it to an entree. You can't beat this place for great food and drinks in a great atmosphere. It is a mini vacation back in time to the original Frances Langford Outrigger restaurant.
