Blackened grilled shrimp, french fries, coleslaw.
Garret H.

I love me some shrimp dock, I'm a regular here. Almost always get the grilled blackened baby shrimp. The quality of the meal is always solid. They recently switched the fries. To be honest I'm not a fan of the new fries, I wish they would change them again. They're fine they're just not my favorite. They're big and thick cut fries and I prefer skinny thin fries. There's some sort of batter on them that I don't really care for either. The only other time I order something differently is on the first Friday of the month when they have lobster and they can make you a lobster roll. I had it the last time and it was very good except the lobster tasted a little bit fishy. That's the first time I've ever experienced that. I'm not sure what that means for lobster but just wanted to note it.

Popcorn shrimp, rice, okra, fries

Everything fresh seafood - eat in or take home. Seasonings. Desserts. Very welcoming. Staff helpful in making your selections. Very clean, nautical atmosphere. Select from iced, fresh seafood in glass display cases.

All kind of goodness

This place is amazing , service outstanding and like right off the dock on the east coast: very much enjoyed and worth it

Cod Po Boy

Food was good and nice size portions, also available is Cajun classics like gator, turtle meat that you can take home to cook. Cool little place and different than your average seafood place.

Fish, chips, coleslaw.

Some of the best fried shrimp I've ever had. Had been hearing good things about this place and it didn't let us down. Great fresh seafood for dining in or takeout. It's a no frills set up and they have steady business. Wife went with her go-to of fish (tasty cod) and chips, while I mentioned my fried shrimp; can always tell when the seafood is fresh. Each combo plate was $15 and came with a choice of two sides, which were ok. Also had a $5 starter of boudin balls -very good. Service was peppy and helpful. They offer all manner of seafood to cook on your own: fish, octopus, squid...all sorts of critters from the seven seas! Def will be back!

Variety of seafood choices, both fresh and frozen. They also offer prepared meals cooked to order. Hubby and I Stopped in for lunch on this cold and dreary day and was immediately greeted by a smiling young lady behind the register who was very kind, patient and caring. She offered their specials of the day along with a variety of beverages to choose from. After placing our order, we found a perfect table for two to enjoy our meals. The place was clean and had adequate seating for its customers. There were several persons dining in when we arrived. We ordered the Shrimp Po' Boy and the fried shrimp plate, both came with two sides. Within 10mins our meals was prepared and brought to our table. It was served hot and looked quite tasty. The roll the sandwich was served on was soft, fluffy and overflowing with shrimp. The size of the shrimp were large and fried perfectly. Moments later, the young lady checked on us to make sure everything was to our liking. Indeed it was. After finishing our meal, we toured their seafood counter looking over their seafood choices for future buys and quickly discovered their prices were out of reach for our pocketbooks! Our overall experience at this location (Alcoa) was exceptional.

Canadian salmon and wahoo sashimi bought at their fish

Amazing. The wahoo tacos were incredible (corn was okay, standard. Fries were delicious). They have an amazing selection of fresh fish. Took a piece of wahoo and Canadian salmon home after lunch and it was delicious! Highly recommend

Fries Shrimp with season broccoli and fries.
Donald R.

This location is on par with the Kingston Pike one. It's small and quiet, and very basic. The employees are all very friendly and efficient. My wife and I ordered lunch; she, a shrimp Po' Boy, me, a shrimp plate. I had my large shrimp fried with French Fries and broccoli. My broccoli was seasoned with garlic and thyme. Your choices are endless. I could have the shrimp prepared one of several ways. There are numerous sides. Once I selected broccoli, I had more choices on the seasoning. I also had a beer (bottled only). Our meals were cooked fresh and promptly delivered by the kitchen staff. My shrimp were lightly breaded and cooked just right. My French fries were hot and (fairly) crisp, and my broccoli was seasoned as requested and served al dente. Overall, a very good place for lunch when you're in the mood for seafood.

Cooking perfectly!

I've been looking for places that have octopus and on the window it said $10 for a pound or $20 for…read more2 pounds. So he weighs the block of ice with octopus in it so I ended up having to pay $34 when there's at least a pound of ice there I definitely didn't appreciate having to pay extra for ice that surrounded the octopus cause there's no way in hell this is 3.5 pounds of octopus. But they do have a bunch of different kinds of fresh fish, different kinds of frozen crab and a few different things in the freezer section. They also say they have sushi grade fish.

I've been VERY nervous to try seafood here since I'm from Maryland. My mentee, however wanted some…read moreseafood so I asked my coworker where should I take her since I didn't know where to go. She recommended the shrimp dock and I'm happy to say that they were delightful!!! Customer service was wonderful because she was very helpful, sorry I don't remember her name. We didn't know what to order and asked for her recommendations. She knew the menu well because everything that she recommended was amazing!!! I ordered the popcorn shrimp and blackened salmon with fried okra and Cajun corn. My mentee ordered fried catfish and coconut shrimp with Cajun corn and crab rangoons. The restaurant was really cute and they have seasonings sitting off to the side that you can add to your food.

Vibes great. Mary our server, wonderful. Brad the bar manager, absolute jerk. We had a party of…read morethree and tried to order martinis, one in our party (who is 30 years old with a beard) had a recently expired license, but had his paper license from the DMV... Brad the bar manager comes over and proclaims that what we were trying to do was illegal. We kindly asked questions about if we could have a bottle wine and extra glass (for the obvious 30 year old). Brad threatens to kick us out. We asked about one person ordering a second drink, Brad threatens kick us out and accuses us of illegal activity (he's 30)... Brad was completely unprofessional. We left. Because of Brad. We would've been happy to have had a designated driver (who was 30). Brad's condescension and escalation was wholly inappropriate. We heard from another staff member that it was Brad's last week with Raven. We will be back to Raven to complete the experience in 7-10 days and will update this review accordingly.

This was an amazing experience. We came in for my birthday. It was an expensive meal but well worth…read moreit for an occasion! We said we would come back for another special evening. We always like to try a nicer restaurant for special occasions and we have been to a lot in the area, this honestly might be the top we have been to. Our server was very kind with a lot of insight of the menu and details how they prepare foods. Everything we ate was delectable. The crab cakes were full of meat. The sauce was delicious. We got the Wellington and pork chop. Both delicious. It was honestly so much food. The lobster Mac and cheese and creamy corn sides are show stoppers. The corn is sweet but the crunchy top just makes you want to eat more and more. Not to mention to finish the evening with the dessert was the cherry on top. We had plenty of left overs from the night to take home with us. Looking forward to our seconds!
