    Scrambled eggs with cheese pancakes and potatoes
    Andre M.

    This was our first time here. There was a lot of hype about this place and I even had a friend that worked here but we never indulged into the cuisine until now. The service I will say was great from the moment we stepped into the door no doubt. The cafe vibe was immediately noticed but the food was I'd say right in the middle depending on your palate you could go either direction of good or not so good so for me it was okay. I got the chicken fajita omelette which I thought was pretty good the potatoes we all agreed that the round cut potatoes were kind of still potatoey. The pancakes huge pancakes my mom got that and those were absolutely trinormious. My lady got the eggs benedict and that was cooked well well done so in line of it all basically the food was Cafe type food. If you order eggs Benedict at a cafe you're going to get well done eggs benedict but the experience was good and if you want to go out for breakfast hey I wouldn't say don't I'm sure we'll probably go back but I know my lady won't get the eggs benedict.

    Good but not great compared to Fresh Watch or Broken Egg . Basic breakfast meal . Too much black pepper on my breakfast potatoes . Family member liked the cheesy grits , eggs were not scrambled like they wanted and toasted English muffin . They liked the coffee there . But our server was busy so asked for a second cup of coffee from another server . BLT on gluten friendly bread was good with side of kettle chips and a pickle . Ambiance is okay .

    Tiny coffee cup.

    Food is tasty and the omelette are full plate size. The waffles and pancakes options are endless with an assortment of toppings to choose from; however, note that the fruits are in compotes that are overwhelmed in sugar. Plenty of parking within this Publix shopping center. Here are the areas for improvement at this location. Service is so very, very slow. Plenty of staff all busy doing their side jobs and customers are not the priority. Time moved while I waited for the server to stop by. Considered leaving but I figured I'd wait. Coffee is bland with no flavor. Never even asked for more, for the cup is a tiny pour, too. One cheese omelette, side of bacon, and one cup of coffee was over $22!!! For this amount the service should be on point and attentive.

    Italian Chicken Panini

    Stopped here on a whim before our check in time and I am glad we did. The food is fairly priced for the portions and the service is good. Highly recommend the Italian Chicken Panini!

If you're looking for a good start to your day, keep driving. The Food: I'm pretty sure my breakfast combo was cooked in oil that hasn't been changed since the turn of the century. The hashbrowns weren't crispy--they were just a heavy, grey sponge dripping with lukewarm grease and dark burnt. I ordered bacon, but what I got looked and tasted like carbonized wood chips, when I asked for crispy bacon, it was rubbery. The Eggs: Supposed to be cheese omelette with mushrooms, but they managed to be simultaneously rubbery on the edges and swimming in a puddle of mystery oil. Burnt toast, burnt English muffin. Everything felt heavy, oily, and completely un-editable. Save your stomach and your money. There are a million breakfast joints out there--don't risk it on this grease trap.

    BLUF: Consistently exceptional food and service located at a dry dock (dry boat storage)…read moreoverlooking the water. I love Dry Dock Waterfront Grill and I always visit when I am in the Sarasota area. Dry Dock is always busy so I am also sure to make a reservation in advance using Open Table. Typically we sit inside but I know the back patio is popular too. If your timing and patience is perfect, you can also get a nice a nice window seat in the dining room that has sweeping views of Sarasota Bay. The inside atmosphere is bright and airy and although airy often translates to loud, Dry Dock thoughtfully put noise dampening panels on the ceiling. As far as food, I don't think you can go wrong. I always get something with grouper whether it be an entree, sandwich or tacos. On my most recent visit I got the grouper filet with coconut shrimp because I had originally been eyeing up the coconut shrimp as an appetizer. Ultimately, we decided to get the rock crab claws for an appetizer which were good but more work than I planned even though they were pre-cracked. I felt like a Neanderthal trying to eat those crab claws in such a nice restaurant. No offense to the Neanderthals, of course! I have no idea what my husband had as it disappeared. After entrees, apps and bread, we were too stuffed for dessert. I think our server was Cari and she was awesome! Attentive, friendly, funny and quite possibly a mind reader and magician. She saw the hanger in my eyes and made bread magically appear. I hope I got her name correct because she was superb! Shout out to all of the great staff members at Dry Dock -we've never had a bad experience. I love Dry Dock and it will forever stay in my Sarasota rotation.

It's got a relaxing beach vibe with outside seating and a nice patio in the back with enough shade. I could tell that they host nightly entertainment here with a small stage.

Also ordered include the blackened grouper sandwich, billionaire burger, and tempura shrimp appetizer. Our group loved every entree. The cocktails were also refreshing.

    We booked this place via OpenTable since it received great reviews. We ended up parking next door…read moresince parking was a bit hard to navigate. The parking place had ample parking where you needed a mobile app to pay for your parking. There was a larger souvenir store there if you needed to kill time before your seating. Once it was our time for our dinner reservations, we were greeted and seated at our table. Our waitress was a bit sarcastic or had a witty comments that didn't sit well with my kids. When ordering our foods, the kids asked what type of drinks they had since it was not listed on the menu. She said Coke but didn't elaborate that they had Coke products. Since she said Coke so fast our daughter didn't hear the response and asked her the question again where she just said that's a great question and ignored her and moved on. Food wise - we had the Peruvian ceviche, Peruvian chicken, I think I had a special grouper dish. The food was good. We were able to eat everything and the kids enjoyed their kids burger meals. Outside of the waitress comments, the place placed nice modern music to listen to and had the basketballs games playing on the tv at the bar.
