I thought they would be served chilled, but they fried them. They were very good though, lightly fried with a very good dipping sauce. We also split the jambalaya, which was a very generous portion. The jambalaya was very, very delicious. The place has a cozy, dark, masculine, old school feel. Bartender very friendly. I'll definitely go back when in Gainesville again.

We arrived around 4:30 and still had a 15 minute wait. We waited at the bar and fun fact, happy hour everyday from 2-7 and all day on Tuesdays! Signature cocktails are $8 and beers as low as $4. This place has great prices all around. It's got a nice dining vibe inside, dimly lit but lots of windows, it sits on a corner. We got shrimp and scallop Orleans, stuffed shrimp and blackened red fish. Everything was served hot and at the same time and all very good. We all got collard greens and they were excellent. My only minor beef is that the blacked fish wasn't very spicy. Still great though. Service was very good. Great spot and best prices I've seen anywhere.

For drinks I got the rum runner of course drinks could always have probably a little more alcohol, but it was good enough so I got two and the ambience of course was nice.

I was greeted right away when I walked in, and service was friendly and quick. I ordered the Cajun tofu po' boy and a homemade lemonade. The lemonade tasted really fresh and not overly sweet or artificial. The po' boy came on a crispy hoagie that was still soft inside, with fresh lettuce and tomatoes. The tofu was sliced and cooked well, but could've used a little more salt for flavor.

I came here with a group of friends for dinner, and overall it was a really enjoyable experience…read more Even though Seafood Dock is known for their seafood, I personally wasn't in the mood for a boil that night, so I ordered the lemon pepper wings with fries. The wings were flavorful, well-seasoned, and hit the spot, and the fries were crispy and satisfying,simple but solid. That said, when my friends' seafood boils came out, wow. The smell alone was incredible rich, buttery, and seasoned perfectly. I couldn't resist trying a few bites, and I'm glad I did. The potatoes and broccoli were especially good, soaking up all that seasoning, and the seafood itself tasted fresh and well-cooked. You could tell this is really where they shine. The portions were generous, the food came out hot, and it's definitely a fun, casual spot to go with friends. The atmosphere feels laid-back and social, which makes it great for group dinners. While my non-seafood order was good, seeing (and tasting) the boils made me want to come back and try a full seafood meal next time. Overall, a solid spot with great flavor, especially if you're a seafood lover. I'd absolutely return and next time, I might just give in and get my own boil.

When you have a job you can't wait 45 minutes just to get your lunch. They are constantly understaffed and say they aren't and blame it on random affairs. There's never anyone at the podium to seat you. It's not welcoming to come and wait for five minutes to get acknowledged. Hire a hostess for minimum wage to just at least get seated nice. It gets tiring giving a chance over and over and the same thing happening every time. We spend an hour and a half for lunch. So if you are in a hurry do not go here. Will update when service is better. I hope this get someone's attention to improve there stuff I do like this place and want it to succeed but it's getting ridiculous and not worth it waiting for. Pros: the foodhas always been good Cons: price and inconsistency

I hate giving a local business a poor review, but the service was absolutely terrible. :( From…read morestart to finish our small, mostly raw meal took 2 hours. We kept having to ask for essential items to be brought over, like food that we were missing or cocktail sauce and crackers for the oysters. Our drinks never got refilled even after asking. Our server also didn't clear our plates after we were done with the apps and first round of oysters so our table ended up piled high with dirty dishes. We witnessed multiple wrong orders being delivered to tables, patrons asking more than once for things, and discounts being doled out for poor service. The servers, manager, and kitchen don't seem to communicate and are forgetful. Every single table in our section was complaining about the service. The ambiance also feels dated, and not in a charming way. On the bright side, our calamari and fried green tomato appetizers were pretty good, though! We came on a Thursday for the $1 oyster special. The oysters were on the smaller side, but thats to be expected for $1. Wahoo could be a really great restaurant if they had better service and a facelift to the decor, but for now, we won't be coming back. :(

Our server greeted us right away and asked if we wanted any drinks. We put in our drink order. I had a gin cocktail that was refreshing and light. I enjoyed it. I was not hungry so just did a shrimp Cesar salad. The shrimp were large and the salad was good. There was the right amount of dressing on it. One of the kids had a tomato & cucumber salad and she liked the dressing and flavors. The other had the steak frittes. The steak was cooked perfectly medium rare and she really enjoyed her entree.

Stopped in on a Friday night for dinner. My friend and I were seated immediately. That's where…read morethe positives ended. The place was pretty much empty, but it seemed like we were forgotten about until maybe 15 minutes after being seated, when a server happened to walk by and asked if anyone had taken our drink orders. I ordered an Old Fashioned, knowing I was taking a risk ordering that kind of drink in this kind of restaurant, but figured if it was advertised on their menu as a specialty cocktail, they'd be good at it. I figured wrong--it was not good. Started with a small Caesar salad, which was fine, if a bit overdressed. For an entree, I had the ribeye with mashed potatoes and broccoli as sides. The ribeye was underwhelming, not particularly well seasoned and not an especially good cut of meat. The potatoes were really unimpressive, having an odd taste and definitely not very garlicky. Hate to say it, but I can get a better quality steak and sides for less money at just about any Longhorn in the country, as much as I dislike national chains. Shout out to Taylor, who ended up being our server. She was fantastic, even if it seemed she was stuck covering half the tables in the place on her own. I'd also add that the menus are on iPads. This is just silly, and barely a step above QR codes printed on the table. I don't want to tap through a bunch of screens to figure out what I'm going to eat. Give me a real menu to page through. It's much easier to flip back and forth to reference what I want when I'm ordering rather than trying to navigate through a digital menu. I wouldn't place this restaurant high on my list of places to revisit next time I'm in Gainesville.

It wasn't busy(at first) but we still felt rushed. Ordered an app then we ordered entrees. After waiting a bit, he comes back and says there are no pasta dishes in the kitchen. Like wtf, I mean they didn't tell u when u brought the order to the kitchen? But then you bring out the extra side/ house salad that I ordered to go with the pasta. I didn't want it anymore .Fast forward, then this guy brings out the checks while I'm still eating. Like really? And then I was a little offended that he gave us 2 separate checks without asking.Whats funny is that Me and my best friend always try to pay for each other lol, so who told him to do separate checks. But I try not to assume... Now the food was just okay. Had the gator tail and it was salty. Then after "no pasta" I went with the summer salad. And I guess they were out of stuff for this too. It was missing the Blueberry and the apple. Guess they figure they would see if I noticed. Well I did notice, i was just over it, and was just too late complain. This place gave me No reason to come back

Fish and chips: crispy outside, doughy inside with barely any fish. Batter is heavy and dense. Nothing light about it at all. Cobb Salad: iceberg lettuce. Dry chicken. And I mean dryyyy. This salad just wasn't appealing. Eggs were mush. I just don't have anything nice to say. Water: yes. This too is bad. They definitely need to invest in a filtration system because water shouldn't have a flavor. This sums it up. Service was pleasant and the place clean. That gets a star each from me.
