I visited on a Wednesday night, the ambiance was nice from the decor to music I enjoyed!. Our waitress Megan was the best!, super attentive and knowledgeable. The food was 10/10, drinks were good as well, I certainly recommend giving them a try! read more

While visiting New York I got to try Docks Off 5th. I kept seeing it on Tiktok so I was a little nervous but this place truly lived up to the hype. It was soo cute. It wasn't just about the aesthetics, the food and drinks were sooooo good! Like I wish I could go back tomorrow! We sat at the bar since we didn't have a reservation. Our drink orders were taken quickly but it took a while for our food orders to be taken. However, I'd still highly recommend this place so if you're in the New York area be sure to check them out! read more

Okay so Docks Off 5th Ave really surprised me in the best way The vibe was good from the moment we walked in music playing, lively atmosphere, and just overall good energy. We ordered the sticky ribs, lava shrimp, and tempura cauliflower for appetizers and honestly 10/10 across the board. Everything came out fresh, hot, and full of flavor. For entrees, I had the seafood paradise and seafood linguine and BABYYYY they did not disappoint. The portions were good, seafood tasted fresh, and the seasoning was on point. Shoutout to our waiter Meigan too super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed, which really made the experience even better. Definitely a spot I would come back to for seafood, drinks, and a fun night out. read more

Let me start by saying the place is absolutely beautiful aesthetically. The floral décor going down the stairs definitely grabs your attention. The music was decent no real complaints there. The food was good, but for the portion size, it was not worth the price we paid. This spot is definitely on the pricey side, so keep that in mind before making a trip. If price isn't a concern for you and you're mainly looking to take good photos, then it may be worth visiting. The drinks were also expensive, but I will say they were strong. Our server,I believe,George was very nice well attentive. read more

Docks Off 5th - Seafood Near Me - New York, New York

Docks Off 5th is a beautiful venue--definitely Instagram-worthy. The ambiance is trendy, and the flower wall is a clear crowd favorite (though sitting right in front of it meant we had a rotating audience of strangers hovering over our table for the perfect shot). The DJ kept the energy up, playing a mix of hip-hop and throwback hits, which made for a fun atmosphere. But beyond the vibe, the food and service left a lot to be desired. We started with appetizers--tuna tartare tacos and sticky ribs, both of which were ok. The hot wings, however, were not good--Buffalo Wild Wings quality at a premium price. The drinks were good, but at nearly $100 upcharge for casamigo reposado, they should be. When the entrées came, everything went downhill fast. My friends ordered the filet mignon, and the NY strip. For $56 and $65 steaks, we expected flavor, tenderness, and at the very least, some level of satisfaction. Instead, I got a piece of rubber disguised as a steak. Even the garlic butter sauce couldn't save it. Both steaks were cooked incorrectly. One of my friends described her steak as "a boot sole." My steak sandwich sounded good from reading the menu, but tasted like something I could have got at the deli. The Parmesan truffle fries were another letdown--greasy, hard, and definitely not worth the upgrade cost. Service-wise, our server was friendly but inattentive. We sat for over 20 minutes before even getting water, though, to their credit, the food came out quickly once we ordered. Dessert was a final disappointment--the fried Oreos sundae tasted like the Oreos had been pre-fried and reheated, not fresh at all. For 3 appetizers, 4 drinks (including that outrageous reposado upcharge), 2 seltzers, 3 entrées, and a dessert, our bill came to nearly $500. Would I go back? Absolutely not. Would I recommend it? No! Also...getting to the restaurant which is in a basement, requires navigating a long flight of stairs read more

Docks Off 5th - Terrible steak - Seafood Near Me - New York, New York

Floral covered stairway as you walk in. That was neat. The restaurant ambiance is...interesting. One side of the dining area has gorgeous floral arrangements along the ceiling...then the area you walk into that contains the host/hostess stand is painted completely black with only the EXIT signs standing out. So you're sitting under this gorgeous pink flower arrangement cascade with a view of the side of the room which is painted opaque black which makes the whole place look ONLY partially done. WHY not have those florals throughout so as to not break up the room so abruptly? It was giving "warehouse club". Then they had tv's placed randomly showcasing scenes from other countries -why? What's the theme? -Floral, travel, and blacked out warehouses? The service is fine. Nice enough servers but the hostesses seemed to not really care. The cocktails (I had the not so old fashioned and my spouse had the lemon drop martini) both were VERY subpar, watered down, and overly sweet unnecessarily. I felt like the bartenders were from an 18 and up club and had no real experience in mixology. The shrimp appetizer with the drizzle of something trying to be spicy was like someone had microwaved Gordon's fisherman frozen shrimp from the grocery store and tossed it with what I THINK was a pineapple salsa? My husband's shrimp "Po' Boy" was served on a literal HOT DOG BUN. A hot dog bun -seriously? My husband is from New Orleans. I get that we're not in Louisiana but they could have at least found some French bread and made an ATTEMPT. Or maybe GOOGLE what a po' boy is? The shrimp tasted old and had no real flavor. My hot honey chicken sandwich was inedible -it was like the thinnest SLICE of chicken deli meat had been deep fried and then placed upon watery cold slaw on a thick bun then covered with NOT HOT AT ALL honey. I tasted honey only. So basically it's a honey sandwich filled with deep fried FRIED and watery slaw. The one star is for servers who actually tried. Sadly, it's the Worst restaurant I've been to in New York City since moving here last November. Skip this one. Please -SKIP. read more

Nice ambiance, seems like that's the main focus. Food isn't anything special. My rice was cold when it came out even though the place was pretty empty when I arrived. Service from my waitress was amazing Megan is great. The hostess, not so much. When I arrived with my date she attempted to seat us in the very back of the establishment at the smallest table. There was literally like 7 in the restaurant so I knew she was being intentional when she attempted to seat us there. All around wouldn't recommend this place if you actually care about the food. read more

We visited this restaurant right across the street of Rockefeller center and what an amazing experience! The restaurant is decorated beautifully! And We had so much fun! The food was so good!! The lobster bisque was delicious! And the Filet Oscar topped with jumbo lump crab meat, hollandaise, & asparagus is a must! Perfectly cooked! The cocktails! The lemon drop is delish and comes with a ducky! And the espresso martini is soo creamy!! The staff was super friendly and accommodating! Make sure to check out: @docksoff5th read more

Idk how to say this... went in on a busy Saturday night at around 9:30. Seemed very friendly to POCs but not... otherwise. Let's just say the crowd eating there was not very diverse. Being in a space with mostly POC is not something that has ever bothered me, for the record. When I went up to the bar to order a beer and was told there weren't any. The entire bar/restaurant was out of beer?? The bartender doubled up on this with "I don't know what to tell you - we don't have any". Noticed people drinking coronas on the way out. I did not feel welcome in the space - got lots of weird looks from other patrons - doesn't seem like a very inclusive space. read more

We came here for dinner before a show and had the best time. Dock's Off 5th delivers big on both flavor and vibe. The floral ceiling, moody lighting, and playlist were all on point. I had the crab cake and salmon sliders to start, both were a 10/10. Our server was super attentive without being pushy, and the cocktails were refreshing and very on brand for Dock's. It's a great spot for a girls' night or pre-show dinner. Midtown needs more places like this! Would absolutely come back, already planning to try their brunch next time. read more

The food was good especially the lobster rolls. We went on 2 different occasions. The first visit was for a birthday party. The second vist was a birthday double date with our cousins from Miami. Both visits were amazing and the service was good. Saturdays can be super busy so make sure to book a reservation. The esthetics are nice too. read more

This place was amazing - from the moment you walk you in - you feel the party vibe - we arrived for a 4pm reservation but our table wasn't ready, so we sat at the bar for about 20 minutes and ordered watermelon lemon drops with little ducks floating on the top. The drinks were very good ($80 for 3 drinks) Once we were seated, the waiter came over and took our order - we decided to go with appetizers - we had fries, wings, salmon sliders, sushi, all was good except the sushi (didn't taste fresh) unfortunately we were seated next to a grass neon sign wall - so we had a constant flow of people coming up to us and putting their drinks on our table while they posed at the wall (that was annoying) there's a ton of grass neon walls all around the restaurant for pix opps - the DJ was also playing the best music - it's very dark inside - we forgot it was daytime until we left overall yes I would return - if you are overstimulated probably not the place for you, and don't be shocked by the sticker price read more

Docks Off 5th - Very unsanitary - Seafood Near Me - New York, New York

I have a saying: you either come for the food or you come for the vibes -- and this is definitely a place you come for the vibes. Every corner is thoughtfully curated and absolutely stunning. It feels like a pink floral oasis, perfect for a cute brunch or a girls' day out. The food was good, though not the best I've ever had. The lobster roll was definitely my favorite -- super flavorful and well done -- and the truffle pasta was also a standout. As for the appetizers, they were underwhelming. The portions were really small, and honestly, I'd skip them next time. Dessert wasn't very memorable either, but the entrees made up for it. Overall, if you're looking for a beautiful, Instagram-worthy spot with decent food and an amazing atmosphere, this is worth checking out! read more

Girls night out done right. Docks off 5th gives you an excuse to get a little dolled up and the girlies did not come to play. No worries the decor will match your vibe for pictures. After making our way down the garden/floral staircaise, we were met with lively music and energy. Unexpectedly large space with lots of seating, well organized with enough room for some dancing. The DJ was reading the room well and playing tunes. The girls and I sat to eat and ordered up. Everything that came out was delicious. I started with the tuna tartare tacos and it was so good my friends who don't typically eat raw fish felt tempted to dig in and were impressed. The avocado rolls disappeared from the table quickly and the calamari followed. Everyone raved about their main dishes. I ordered the salmon with coconut rice which was paired with some asparagus. The consensus all around the table was 10/10 no notes. The cocktails were also very cute. Several of my friends ordered martinis and lemon drops cocktails decorated with cute rubber duckies and flair. Very boomerang worthy. Overall great service, great food, great vibe. #bookmarked read more

What an amazing new spot! If I could give them 6 stars I probably would. I went for dinner with a friend and had the best time. From the floral decor to the whimsical cocktails and aesthetically pleasing and tasty plates, not to mention private party rooms with disco ball, floral, and bank vault motifs, this place is definitely photo-op friendly. To top it off the staff is friendly and accommodating, and the food was delicious. We started with some fun cocktails that came with the cutest rubber duckies, followed by the angry lobster roll - delicious! We then each had the hot honey chicken sandwich (I subbed my fries for truffle fries) - we didn't leave one bite over, that's how good the food was. On Saturdays (and soon to be Fridays) they have a DJ. I'll definitely be back. I do hope that as they become more established they continue to have such amazing service. read more

To be honest, I went to Docks Off 5th yesterday for a friend's birthday. Overall, the food was decent, but for the price people are paying, the food should be the same quality. The dishes were mostly bland, at best lightly seasoned. The music was unbearably loud, making simple conversations difficult and creating an overstimulating atmosphere that took away from enjoying the meal and the overall vibe. The restaurant was also extremely dark, so much so that reading the menu was difficult, and I had to use my phone's flashlight just to see it clearly. The service was another issue. The waiters/waitresses didn't check on our table often, and communicating with them was challenging due to the volume of the music. At one point, I had to ask three different waiters just to get a takeout box. On top of that, I found it ridiculous that we weren't allowed to take our own photos inside the restaurant. What's the point of creating such an aesthetic space if it turns into a money grab just to take a few pictures? I'm not sure if it was because of the table placement or our location, but this should not be an excuse for inconsistency. read more

They killed it from the delicious food down to the beautiful decor. They out did themselves. Any one who's looking for that cute photo opt moment this is the place to be. Everywhere you turn it's a photo moment. This is the perfect place to come with your girls, or even a date night especially with Valentine's Day around the corner, (you're welcome for the idea). The drinks were great i recommend the FRIENDS W/ BENEFITS !! But there were definitely dishes that stood out & I will definitely return for. The waiter was attentive and great ! First off DONT SLEEP on the Brussels sprouts they were CRISPY and flavorful! The tuna won-ton tacos and sticky ribs were in my dreams last night. The BOURBON BBQ GLAZED LAMB LOLLIPOPS !!! They were cooked perfectly and they nailed the flavor. The fried Oreo sundae for dessert is a must, make sure you save room for desserts because you'll regret it. Grab your girls, significant other, co workers, Bestfriends read more

Only 3 stars because the service wasn't great. I think it was because we went during a busy time but the waiter I had definitely didn't deserve the gratuity that was added against our will. The food was great, the margaritas with house liquor tasty awful and watered down. The sangria was watered down as well. Music was way too loud couldn't even hear the person I was with. Def a turn up spot not somewhere to eat and talk. Food was really good tho. Don't know if i would go back. read more

Very beautiful venue . Perfect for a birthday or girls brunch . The staff didn't take long and were accommodating . The food was hit or miss for me tho . The salmon sliders and the salmon dish were good (they should warn you sliders have bacon tho) the shrimp and grits was sweet and my preference would not be that for shrimp n grits . The seafood pasta for me was a little bland. But the way they cook their lobster is very good ! The lobster bisque was amazing I need a whole bowl of that . A pasta with that omg! The music was JUMPING . Great vibes . Will def be back read more

Docks off 5th is a new hidden gem restaurant located next to doubletree hotel close to Rockefeller center. This restaurant is super cute with a beautiful entrance downstairs to the restaurant and bar area. The food are beautifully decorated and also very good. The seafood linguini is so yummy. The salmon is also very good and flavorful. Don't forget their dessert. The pinacolada crème brûlée comes with pineapple. So beautifully presentation. The decor are so beautiful with a lot of flower hanging onto the ceilings and they also have a private room. The service was amazing.

Last night, I had an amazing time! The atmosphere was impressive, very instagram-able! For starters, my friend and I had lemon drops (regular and watermelon) 10/10, highly recommended. Second round of drinks, same thing but this time we asked for mango flavor, yum! The food was great, we had bone-in sweat heat wings, lamb lollipops, NY strip steak. And usually we don't get dessert, but we just couldn't miss out on the fried Oreo sundae, which is shareable. There's a dj after 7pm, he will have you singing your heart out, we def were! Shout out to our server, Meighan, she was very down to earth and enhanced our experience! They didn't have quite a few items on the menu, but that was no worries of mine, I got everything I wanted. The restaurant is fairly new and figuring out some kinks. It is pretty pricey but I thought it was worth checking out! read more

What a location! In a basement near Rock Center. This basement location lives up the reputation the Docks has established in NYC. Solid seafood. Excellent sides. Quality cocktails. What more does someone expect from a mid-town restaurant read more

From the stunning decor to the drool-worthy dishes, and amazing service, this place is a must-visit. We started with the Angry Lobster Sushi Roll, Lava Shrimp, and Sweet Heat Wings--every bite was a 10/10. For entrees, we had the Cinnamon Toast Crunch Crusted French Toast (yes, you read that right, the crust was so crispy and delicious ) We also had the Baja Fish Tacos, and the Seafood Linguini. Love me some seafood anything! And because no meal is complete without dessert, we had to try the Fried Oreo Sundae. No crumbs left. Devoured. read more

Service was horrific and was made to feel that we were not able to afford the meal. They also insulted one of our guest by stating "it's right there honey, it's not my fault that you can't read!" Then they asked for a tip after charging us $60 in gratuities. Food portions were small and not enjoyable at all. I would not feed this to my dogs!!!! read more

Definitely a place for photos only That's about it. I didn't expect much about how good the food will be from all the reviews and the service. However food was okay. At least it didn't suck for the price point. Only went because of a birthday party being throw there. Otherwise I wouldn't have ever have gone to this type/specific restaurant. That's just my opinion. If you want to go there for the instagram photos then definitely go and enjoy. read more

The food and ambiance was amazing! For starters we had the lobster sushi roll, ribs and tuna wonton tacos. Everything was amazing. The ribs were tender. The sauce was delectable. The wonton tacos were amazing as well. I poured the sauce from the sushi on top and rocked it! For my entree I had the seafood linguini. It was so damn good. It had just the right balance of flavor and heat. The drinks were very tasty but they were weak af, especially considering the price point. read more

Though the ambiance is nice , I went for my friends birthday dinner. at first we had an reservation for 9pm and then called to move our reservation back an hour which was an inconvenience. We arrived about 15 minutes early for the reservations and it took the restaurant about an hour to sit our party. We were sat 10:45pm. Once we sat the waiter came over and automatically started rushing the table to order and says the kitchen is closed. Which stunned the table and the waiter on top the food was very bland. He then proceeded to be rude all night towards the party. We do not recommend this restaurant. read more

For 3 appetizers, 4 drinks (including that outrageous reposado upcharge), 2 seltzers, 3 entrées, and a dessert, our bill came to $442. Would I go back? Absolutely not. Would I recommend it? Maybe... if you're just looking for a vibe, expensive drinks, and a place to take pictures (though even the flower wall was poorly lit). The crowd was mostly young adults celebrating birthdays, and be warned: getting to the restaurant requires navigating a long flight of stairs--not exactly ideal for those of us in heels or with 30-plus knees. Final verdict: Go for the drinks and ambiance if that's your thing, but if you're looking for a great meal, save your money. read more

This is not Docks Oyster Bar and Grill sister restaurant. The best thing about this place is the location. We went on thursday night for dinner and it was almost empty. The decor was overwhelming with plastic flowers. The website displays large plated dishes, actually they are small plates with the condiments terrines in the middle. The food was disappointing with small portions and of fair quality. The service was very good given that there were few people having dinner. This restaurant should be restricted from its name, Docks on 3rd is 5 stars read more

Food and drinks 10/10 recommend the ambiance at first was a miss due to there being no music and if there was any it was like a whisper. We went for a galentines day the flyer they posed for it said our table was to get a free glads of champagne and chocolate covered strawberries for the table we didn't receive that at all as well as at the end of the night the waitress or cashiers lost my friends debit card and charged her twice as well! I am highly disappointed that this happened due to the bill being so high. I can only recommend the food other than that I don't this I will be going back and it's sad because this place was so beautiful! read more
