    First time to THIS Gator's, but have been to many others as Floridians. Great choice prior to the George Thorogood & the Destroyers concert on 9/3/25. Our party of six (6) sat at the bar, had dinner & a plethora of alcohol provided by the awesome Misty! She's was "on target", and served us VERY well. Kudos to Misty & Gators Dockside Melbourne!

    BACON & RANCH CHICKEN QUESADILLA
    Paige S.

    I am a first timer. I arrived on a Monday or Tuesday for lunch to meet a friend. The restaurant was huge for the amount of customers I saw when I arrived. Perhaps they just opened but there were not many people in there. I think I only saw one server. There were some people sitting at the bar watching a sports game. The food came out quick and the quesadilla was delicious. The server was quiet but not unfriendly. She didn't go above and beyond for service but I wouldn't give her any bad remarks. And I heard this restaurant is dog friendly on the patio. I will probably go there sometime when they don't have any parties on the patio, which was the case one other time when I was going to go there with my dog. Apparently it gets very packed when there's a gators game Based off of my first experience, I would go there again

    Raw CHICKEN CLUB SANDWICH

    I got Gators Dockside one other time before this incident and that was with my coworkers for a lunch. Last night I decided I want a quick dinner and chose to buy the Chicken Club Sandwich. Everything was great at first until I looked down at my chicken and realized it was completely uncooked. Luckily I didn't get an upset stomach or food poisoning, I couldn't eat my food after that.

    Today I stopped by for lunch. Having never been to a Gators Dockside I wasnt really sure what to expect. I was warmly greeted by the hostess and promptly seated. My server Sabrina was not just very friendly but sweet. She was very informative about specials and the loyalty program. She brought me some iced tea while looking over the menu. I decided to try the lunch special Gator Patty Melt with Gator Chips. My order arrived promptly and I am happy to report that the patty melt was very tasty and the fresh made Gator Chips were also very good. I tried the apple crumble for dessert. This was an excellent sweet dish. A delicious balace of apple crumble, cake pieces, and ice cream. Ill be back

    Just plain awful, and the service, if possible, was worse. McDonalds would be a significant upgrade.

    Mimi was our server and was excellent, very knowledgeable and helpful…read more One of us ordered the meatloaf along with 2 sides, broccoli and baked potato. There was plenty to take home and have a second meal, and she said it was all delicious. I ordered the soup (clam chowder) and house Caesar. The soup was nice and hot and tasted great. The salad was good, though a tad heavy on the dressing. A general note about Miller's and its kids' menu: I have eaten at a few of these places around the state, and I find their policy about adults eating off the kids' menu to be weird. Some servers are fine with it and some claim management won't let them allow you to order of the other menu. Most items on the kids' menu cost about $8. The (adult) meatloaf is $8.50. The fish and chips are $7.99. So, what is the big deal about an adult ordering off the kids' menu if the costs are the same? Some of us don't want a 1/2 pound burger. The kids' menu has a 1/4 lb. burger. Also, we sometime dine with our disabled nephews, and they usually prefer "kid friendly" dishes. I wish Miller's would review this policy.

Since we were catching up with family we chatted away about 45 minutes and we realized "where is our food". Somewhere things went off the rails. To say we were surprised is an understatement. Finally the manager comes over and says the food should be out in a minute. An hour after ordering our food arrived. The food was average at best. Not what we experienced before. Two of the six ordered the daily special (ribs), two carbonara, ravioli and a salad. Not complicated. Manager was apologetic and comp'd the table. Server was upset since every table In her section had issues. We took care of Taylor knowing it wasn't her fault. Am I off Miller's. No. But if they repeat this nightmare I will have to really think twice about coming OTB. Also they got rid of the Field Goal Trio of wings, zingers and shrimp. So sad.

Even though we arrived early, the line to get in was wrapped around the building. Wynfield's looks unassuming from the outside yet its surprisingly large once you enter. Drinks are reasonably priced and staff did a great job keeping up with the masses. The bar area is huge and takes up a lot of space, but I don't wish it gone; if I was a local here, I would say it's iconic to the venue and evokes a sense of nostalgia to the staff and their customers. There is a decent sized dancefloor in front of the main stage however the stage is not high enough for everyone in the back to get a good view of the band. The overall sound here was pretty good; however, the lighting was horrible. I probably took 200 photos and maybe 25 of them came out great. What's up with the green, red, and blue lighting for the entire show??? Please add some white lighting in there so we can see what the hell is going on. Oh yeah, and the smoke machines only enhance the poor lighting situation so, please keep the smoke down to a few songs, thank you! All-in-all, the two bands, Whiplash (Metallica Tribute) and the Iron Maidens really killed it on this night. Wynfield's is just small enough that we had a chance to meet with the musicians after the show for a photo op, Love this! Although I don't make it to Satellite Beach often, when I do, I look forward to checking out Wynfield's again.

I ordered the wings naked with the sauce on the side so I can taste the quality of the cook because sauces can mask and hide quality. The wings themselves were cooked very well--great texture and done right--but they came out completely unseasoned, so they relied entirely on the sauce for flavor. I wish they would season their wings when asked for sauce on the side. That kind of attention to detail would've made a big difference and easily earned them a higher score. The mild sauce had a perfect level of heat and that classic buttery profile you expect. Portion-wise, the price felt a bit on the higher side for what you get. On the flip side, my wife ordered the redfish sandwich, and after trying a bite, I can say it was absolutely delicious--definitely a highlight. Overall, it's a solid spot. The food quality is consistent, which keeps us coming back, even with a few small tweaks that could take it to the next level. I took a picture but I didn't save.
