Stopped for brunch a few weeks ago. Had such a great…read moreexperience here! The service was excellent. Our server was attentive and had great drink recommendations that we really enjoyed. We started with the hummus and veggies appetizer, which was colorful, and tasty. I ordered the chilaquiles, they were delicious and had the right amount of crunch, just how I like them. The steak on top was a great addition and really rounded out the dish. My husband got the eggs Benedict, and he enjoyed them as well. The flavors were spot on, and everything was cooked just right. Between the delicious food, the well-made drinks, and the beautiful view, Dockside 1953 was an overall a good experience. Definitely recommend!

Margarita was also superrrr delish, but the second biggest highlight was the Chicken Fiesta Salad. All of the ingredients were so fresh and the grilled onions and peppers added a great flavor to the salad. I do wish it had a littttle more lettuce at the bottom, but it was a BIG salad! 10/10 great spot for food right by the beach. Don't skip this place!

Trust and believe... it's a $4 shot, ain't gonna be some quality drank! However, it got the job done. The service was awesome! Our waiter was cool, he was attentive, didn't make us feel rushed, and did a good job servicing our table. Keep in mind, I had two kids that couldn't stay still. He handled it well. The food, was ok. We ordered the BBQ plater for two, a classic cheese burger, got the kids a cheese burger, and chicken tenders. The burgers were good! Good classic burger, seasoned well and came out hot. The fries were nice and crispy, could have used a little more salt, but I do like my fries extra salted, The chicken tenders... honestly... was the best dish that we had, it was the kids meal, but you know... I gotta pick at my kids food lol came out piping hot, well seasoned, great texture... and sauced down with their BBQ sauce... fire Now for the actual BBQ platter, I was disappointed in it... we got it with brisket, chicken, and tri-tip (we replaced the pulled pork for tri-tip, an $8 dollar upgrade). Our sides were Mexican corn, fries, & Mac n cheese. The proteins came out kinda cold, they had no smoke taste at all, tasted oven made, and not actual BBQ. The tri-tip was over cooked, and chewy to eat, it's a lean piece of meat, and is easy to over cook, I had to sauce the heck out of it. The brisket had a good texture, was under seasoned in my opinion (I like heavy pepper and salt on my brisket) but it didn't have any bark. I'm use to my bbq have a nice smoke ring and a good bark. The chicken was sauced, and was mid. The sides were aiiight. The Mac n cheese was the best side, the mexican corn was served in a cup, and was just ok. I'm use to Mexican corn being on the cob, rolled in mayo and cotija... with hot sauce! Messy and stuck in my grill. The BBQ sauce carried the whole dish... Overall it was a great experience! I would definitely return here for the vibes, burgers, and those bomb chicken tenders! Not for the bbq.

The blue jito drink was so refreshing and unique. The mix included the usual mojito mix with crushed blueberries. The blueberries really took the drink over the top.

PRO TIP: Just be aware that there are no servers at the bar tops, and you have to go over to the bar to order.
