    Fish Tacos, crispy shrimp, Sliced Tomatoes, key lime pie

    Food quantity: 7/10 Food quality: 6/10 Service: 7/10 Ambiance: 8/10 Overall rating: 7/10 Food was just okay, sitting out on the dock was relaxing. Would not recommend the food, but it was a nice place to gather.

    I don't even know where to begin about this place! We came here on my fiancés birthday. We ordered fried shrimp with crispy okra, roasted oysters and a blue crab roll. Everything was so so so good and so fresh. If I could give this place 50 stars I would. The flowers everywhere were beautiful and it's perfectly placed on a quiet place on the water, with a great view of incoming military helicopters. We came back twice while in town, if it were up to me I probably would have come back daily. Everyone there was also very nice and made great suggestions for our food.

    The food was superb and the atmosphere was great. Amazing views of the water. I really enjoyed the fried okra.

    Favorite casual spot in Savannah that is dog friendly!! All outdoor seating on a deck along the water. Order first at the counter then grab a number. It was the middle of the day so we were just there for a snack but I definitely want to return for lunch so I can order more items. We got the she crab soup and grilled oysters and both were amazing. Seasoning on point and everything was fresh and flavorful. Highly recommend.

    Delicious food & drinks! Lowkey place during the day :) good vibes- casual & comfortable. You order at window and they bring you out food & drinks

    Sat on  the deck with our dog! Beautiful views &  you can pull your boat up as well & dock it.

    On the water with beautiful views, great ambience. The fish tacos were fresh and very tasty along with the side of seasoned black beans and rice. The area on the water was beautiful and we were allowed to bring our dog.

    Perfect Caesar Salad and Fish Tacos with a watermelon margarita

    The best part of the experience was the cocktail. It was perfectly balanced and tasted amazing. The food was good but nothing crazy. The vibe of the place if definitely what makes it special. Cool location. You also have to order yourself at the counter and they bring you the food.

    If you're looking for the perfect mix of laid-back vibes and fresh coastal flavors, Wyld Dock Bar is the spot. They deliver the backyard, friend with a dock atmosphere that you didn't know that you needed... or maybe that's exactly what you're looking for! Drink Highlights: The Sangria - Fruity and refreshing The Paloma - Citrusy but missing it's brightness Food Highlights: Oysters Wyld - Fresh, briny, and topped just right. I wanted more Ceviche - Light, zesty, and full of flavor Crispy Local Shrimp - Golden, crunchy perfection. I needed more Crab Roll - Soft, buttery bun packed with crab Crispy Rock Shrimp Tacos - A must-try with the perfect crunch! Hear me out, throw out the ketchup! Don't even look for it. You don't want that on their perfectly cooked fries. Use their house made horseradish tarter sauce as your dip of choice. Whether you're coming for the food, the drinks, or just the view and atmosphere -- Wyld is the kind of spot that keeps you coming back. IG: @thewylddockbar

    What to say that isn't good about this place? I'm from SoCal & was so excited for some good food while visiting GA. And this place did not disappoint: everything from the okra, to the tacos, to the rolls, wow: amazing! The servers and cashier were very very nice, and never rushed us. They were very helpful in guiding me what to order! The view is awesome here right by the dock: definitely a place to come to for that "southern" feel by the water! Honestly would come here more often if I was local! Highly recommend coming here!

    The scenery here is breathtaking and very peaceful! My son and I were recommended we come to this place for that reason. I wasn't really sure what to expect food wise. One thing that's different here i wasn't use to was that they wipe your card before you order and they dont close our your tap until you leave. My son ordered a cheese burger and fries. I had a shrimp roll and fries w/ bar drink. I dont remember the name of it. But it wasn't my favorite. The Shrimp roll had a very odd flavor to it. I wasn't a fan of. I would give it a 5 /10. My son loved the cheese burger he said it was one of the best he had. I will say for price I paid for everything the food wasn't worth it.

    You drive to the end of a residential area and the restaurant parking lot is in front of you. The place reminded us of our travels of seafood restaurants in New England. A little different service set up. As you walk in you are directed to a place to order your food and drinks. No sit down service. We ordered and got a number and proceeded to the deck with tables. They are under shade and they have fans throughout. We had our two beers to the table quickly followed by our food. We split fried clams, shrimp platter, and fried okra. The clams were fried perfectly and quite tasty. A perfect size to share. The fried shrimp and fries were also good. We got a good serving of shrimp and seasoned fries. The okra was ok. I like more of a batter on my okra. Once done you return to where you ordered and pay. Eating by the water was nice.

    I recently saw a Tik Tok video about this hidden gem and I knew I had to try it. Initially, the greeting we received wasn't very friendly or welcoming but after speaking with other staff members who were more helpful it got better. It's a bit confusing as a first timer because you pay for your drinks and food up front at a "concession stand" type location and then the server brings your items out. Otherwise no one comes around asking what you need or want. But everything we had was so delicious and the seafood was so fresh. The drinks were even a hit. You can't forget about the gorgeous views, I was able to take some amazing pictures. I will definitely be back!

    Went here with my daughter and her family. Love the setting. It's on the water and the raised planters were a nice touch. The food was ok. My apple goat cheese salad was really small and lacked any goat cheese flavor. The shrimp dishes we had were fresh shrimp. Tasty! They were very busy but the service was ok. Would consider revisiting if in the area.

    Fish tacos.

I ordered the Lowcountry Boil, which comes with shrimp, corn, potatoes, and sausage. The sausage and potatoes were good, and the seasoning was decent, but I was underwhelmed overall, especially considering the price. The shrimp didn't seem particularly fresh and had some white spots and discoloration that gave me the impression they may have been frozen for quite a while. As a result, the dish didn't quite live up to the hype for me. My wife ordered the Wassaw Redfish, which was recommended by our server, and that ended up being the standout dish of the meal. The redfish was cooked well, the garlic beurre blanc sauce was rich without being overwhelming, and the grits were creamy and flavorful. The shrimp and green beans complemented the dish nicely. Overall, the experience was mixed. The atmosphere was pleasant, and my wife's entrée was very good, but the Lowcountry Boil fell short of expectations. I'd consider coming back to try some of their other menu items, but based on this visit, I wouldn't order the boil again.

After many disappointing restaurant experiences in Florida that ended up in inflammation flare ups (I have MS and my body is severely reactive to many foods that result in pain) because the serving staff and chefs ignored my requests, Tubbys was AMAZING at respevting and accommodating my health issues. We got there mid afternoon so it was very quiet. Beautifully laid out inside. Great seating. We didn't order any alcohol, but the food was delicious and decently priced. My husband ordered the shrimp and grits and essentially licked the bowl clean lol. He also got the spuds and said they were delicious. Basically thinly sliced beer battered potatoes with a spicy honey mustard sauce. We wanted to get the bacon wrapped scallops but sadly, they were out of those so we didn't have an appetizer because I couldn't eat any of the others. The standout testimony to their service, was that I ordered the Shrimp Basket which usually comes fried, but our server Anthony, was awesome, listening to the food restrictions that I had and he worked with us and the kitchen. I was able to get the shrimp grilled in a separate pan so that there was no cross-contamination. They came out perfectly no seasoning and bland by southern standards but it was PERFECT for me) and I had no issues with it at all. My fries were also done without any seasoning so again, perfect . I truly appreciated them working with my medical restrictions and so did my body! It's very difficult to travel with dietary restrictions, and often embarrassing be ause before I developed MS I could eat anything (and did!) without issue. Often, servers are a bit argumentative or even combatitive with the requests which are usually just no seasoning and in a desperate pan. Anthony was the exact opposite. Very laid back, friendly and he joked that I was a bit of a trick problem but he got me (in terms of having to cut out the seasonings) which made me laugh because he normalized my restrictions, not making me self conscious at all for the fact that my body is difficult. He should be held up as a gold standard to other employees in resturants throughout the country. I also had the key lime pie and oh dear my.... AMAZING. I wish I had gotten a second piece to go! Overall, it was the first five star experience that we have had in our nine days of traveling and three other times at Florida restaurants.

I was perplexed and asked why they would put it on the menu if it can't be done. She gave me this exasperated look and said, "I'll check with the kitchen." When she came out, she said, "We can do it for you just this once". I turned around and walked back to my table...at which point she asked, "so, do you want a burrito or a scramble?". At this point, I was so frustrated, we just paid for our coffee and left. Unfortunately our server must have been having a bad day, but the leaders need to understand people will not tolerate poor service from a flippant server at these prices ($20+ for a breakfast burrito).
