    Clam Chowder
    Danielle P.

    My brother and I were on a nostalgia tour of Montauk, and ended up here after walking around Gosman's Dock. We had wanted to go to what's now Mary Lou's but used to be a restaurant we went to all the time on family vacations. The security guards and swarms of influencers in sparkly dresses and cowboy boots made us quickly realize this wouldn't be an option for dinner. We started walking back toward Gosman's and noticed The Dock tucked away on a side street. We decided to grab a drink at the bar and regroup on next steps. The ambiance here is very casual, its a busy spot with a large indoor bar and a handful of indoor and outdoor tables. Our bartender was a master at tending to the rush and took care of us quickly. While we were deciding what to do next, we made conversation with a local Gosman's fish monger who let us know the food here was worth staying for, and even went as far as to ask one of the staff members for the name of what the restaurant next door used to be for us as we were trying hard to remember. I'm so glad we stayed, because the food was really on point here. Clam chowder was hearty and had plenty of clams. Their steamed clams were incredible, fresh and packed with lots of chopped garlic in a broth that you'll want to drink. The star of the show here is the tuna melt: a giant fresh tuna steak served on an English muffin with cheese and some of the best fries I've had at a restaurant in ages. Glad to have made another core memory here in Montauk at The Dock.

    No services dog

    Not dog-friendly at all. Don't come here, even if you have a service dog. Their window sign says "No screaming kids," yet there were still children running around and yelling. They should probably update the sign to also say "No service dogs." On top of that, many of the items listed on the menu were no longer available. Total waste of time coming here. We waited 30 minutes in the cold only to be told we couldn't eat inside or even out on the patio.

    Almond crush flounder sandwich and buffalo mahi mahi
    Emily B.

    We sat outside after about a 30 minute wait, but no complaints it's worth the wait and more! The service was attentive and professional you can tell these are career servers they move like a well oiled machine. Now onto the food, the Jalapeño poppers are 11/10 I would come back just for those. The special fish sandwich was very fresh, light and well done. The mahi mahi bites were breaded and had a buffalo wing vibe but a very generous portion. The nachos were great and the mozzarella sticks were solid. This place has a great local small town vibe and the food is spectacular.

    Epic place . Even the food is good . I hope it doesn't change too much . Can't wait to come back

    Soft shell crab sandwich and Grilled flounder
    Renata G.

    Super solid spot! I love the Phony Negroni. So nice to see non- alcoholic options like that at a divey place. I've had it before and made me so happy to cool off with a mocktail after a hot beach day. Clam chowder and fried calamari were great to start. And the soft shell crab sandwich was really tasty too. The sauce it came with complemented the deep fried crab very nicely. I enjoyed dinner here. The only thing is that it's pricey! $150 for 2 people including tip

    Without a doubt our favorite restaurant in Montauk. Always great service and food…read more Amazing place to eat with incredible sunsets!. Our fav's the calamari sushi roll, cauliflower side and the traditional lobster roll! In the summer the wait may be long but if plan it correctly, you can enjoy the musical entertainment first and then dinner! A two for 1 deal!

    5 + location and view…read more 4 minus overall No reservations, so depending on time of year you may have to wait for a table. We have been here a number of times and usually enjoy our meal and experience. They have Good sushi selections and usually have nice fresh seafood selections. We had Tile fish prepared with escarole, white beans, and crispy leaks. Quite good! We also had wild Alaskan salmon that was somewhat disappointing. Id skip that! Was kind of dry and a bit fishy. Not terrible, but not really exceptionally enjoyable either. Service was good! They definitely work hard! They were washing down the table next to us as we sat down which is fine. Unfortunately, they were using some kind of solution that smelled like dirty or rotten damp rags. Unfortunately the smell took a while to dissipate and impacted our party's experience. It also probably reduced our ordering of pre-meal apps and drinks, not intentionally, but because it wasnt appetizing. We will probably return, because our experience might have been off a bit because they are not in full season yet.

They definitely seemed to have newer staff/be understaffed as it took awhile to place our drink and food orders once we were seated. We ordered a round of drinks, the pineapple vanilla daiquiris are fantastic and my official go to drink when here now. The elderflower martini was good but nothing special. We ordered a bunch of appetizers for our table: clams casino, baked clams, New England clam chowder, fried calamari, and the fried blowfish special. The chowder here is good but definitely needed some additional salt and pepper, but was reasonably priced compared to other restaurants here. The clams casino could have had more clam and less breading but the flavor was decent. The baked clams came out in three larger shells, and the breading honestly tasted like thanksgiving. It was an odd flavor combination but it worked very well. The fried calamari was probably my favorite and the breading was crisp yet minimal with a kick to it. The fried blowfish was decently prepared thankfully we ordered it without the buffalo sauce it came in. It took awhile to get our servers attention, as we had three different ones throughout the course of the meal. We had some completely different younger girl come to check on us and take our second drink order. It took awhile to get the check and pay. But overall a solid 4/5 experience.

    Wasn't impressed clam chowder was too salty and the oyster crackers were stale. Server reminded me…read moreof the overly excited waiter on the old movie office space with all the flair lol, but nice location.
