We got a table on the deck overlooking the River. Soooooo nice!! Got our drinks right away. Food was absolutely delicious. Definitely a must if you are in the area. Had a wonderful time! read more

Atmosphere - excellent. The restaurant is large, both inside and out. Located on a river, there are two patio levels that have a nice view. The lower patio has an outside bar with about 8 four tops (spaced comfortably apart with consideration of the Covid recommendations). There is music playing that is a little loud, but not so loud that a conversation can not be had. The upper patio has a similar number of tables and is a little more quiet. Service - very good. Our server was attentive and pleasant. Food - very good. The only negative with the restaurant is that the food menu is limited to a few salad options, a handful of burgers, a few other sandwich options and a few entree items. The drink menu is great. I had the Fish n Chips and it was absolutely huge, The fish was cod and it tasted fresh. There is more breading on the fried fish than I would prefer. Overall though it was pretty good. Overall Value - very good. The prices are reasonable, the food and drinks are very good. It is my understanding is that the menu will be expanded in the future. When this occurs, the restaurant will be a great dining option Covid notes: All staff members wore masks at all times. Every patron wore a mask when entering the restaurant and away from their table. Tables were sanitized between settings. read more

This is my new favourite restaurant! The drinks were absolutely amazing. The garnish and design and taste of the drinks were nice. The food was really good and the atmosphere outside was amazing. I loved the waterfall with the lights and the river all lit up. And the string lights. I drove past this place and told my friend we had to go here because on the out side it looked so cool. Definitely worth going to again. The server was nice and had our food and drinks timed out perfectly read more

This is a new bar/restaurant on the Alafia river off 301. The place was packed. There is both indoor and outdoor seating. There are several outside decks with a large bar. They have a large drink menu and a happy hour from 3-6 pm. We tried the frozen rum runner and rum punch. Both were very good. There is live entertainment out on the deck. The food choices consist of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, entrees and tacos. We had the tiki wings, and peel & eat shrimp. For dinner we tried the shrimp fried rice and different soft tacos, such as shrimp, pork belly cod, and grouper. The food was good. The servers work hard at providing good service. There is a large parking lot. They have an elevator from the parking lot up to the main restaurant, because the staircase is large. read more

Tiki Docks Riverview - Ahi tuna!! Children's sliders - Salad Near Me - Riverview, Florida

Tiki Docks has quite the reputation in the Riverview area. We stopped in when in the area recently to have a quick dinner. There was quite the crowd on a Saturday night, but we were able to be seated rather quickly at one of the bar high-top tables. Food options were run of the mill for a waterfront eatery with plenty of options from apps to entrees. I had the coconut battered chicken tenders that were served with crinkle cut fries. The fries were great and the batter on the tenders seemed to be falling off the chicken rather than coated to them. The batter was also under seasoned making them pretty average. Overall, this place is decent if you are looking for some average food with a good view/ambiance. read more

I want to shout out Tori and Remi, both whom made sure I was one satisfied customer . I stopped by to have my favorite dish, which I was craving, to only find out it was removed from their menu . Tori immediately went to speak to someone (Remi) and both made it happen, while ensuring it was just as delicious as ever! Thank you guys, it was a great way to close out my Birthday weekend! Very thankful indeed!! read more

Update. Coconut Shrimp was excellent. Also, see my full 4-star review from four months ago.

I revisited Tiki Docks today after the business encouraged me to reach out to have a different experience. I changed it up and even though had a reservation, I decided to sit at the outside tiki bar with my friend and loved my experience. I ordered the TV Mai Tai which was top 2 Mai Tais I have ever had (top being at M.Bird). Wished it had been in a tiki glass or a Tiki Docks cup but it was still delicious and packed a boozy punch. The bartenders were really attentive and lunchtime on Saturday before Labor Day it was not as busy as the last time I went for dinner on a weekend. For lunch I ordered a grouper sandwich which was cooked to perfection. The amount of fish was perfect and you could tell it was fresh. I definitely recommend getting it blackened. I highly recommend Tiki Docks in Riverview. It's my new favorite oasis and I'm happy to drive 45 minutes to experience it. The lakeside water view is great too! read more

Been here a couple of times and the third time did not disappoint. I'm hooked on the grouper dinner. This time I had the shrimp dinner and it was equally as good. I don't usually like lime, but the lime sauce is amazing. All times the service was good and I will definitely return. I'm new to the area so this is my new "go to" spot when I want to "know" I will get a good meal, good service and a chill vibe. read more

Such a great vibe at this restaurant. Friendly and inviting staff too! I ordered the shrimp tacos and my girlfriend ordered the chicken tenders, both phenomenal. One of the cooks convinced us to try a new ahi tuna item which I wish I got a picture of but did not. We can't wait to go back again and further explore the menu... Well, I'll explore the menu and she will stick to the chickie tendies lol read more

We love the tiki docks and have been going for 2+ years but this new outdoor roof over the deck was a big mistake. They need to add back in the tiki straw roof over the bar, and the big TVs, and red lighting and get the tiki feel back under the new covered deck. I get it, more people can sit outside without being in the sun, but now the new lower roof deck area doesn't have that tiki vibe? So, please find a way to cover the bar and bring back the tiki feel to the middle of the deck vs just having a long covered deck. The owners are really investing in the place and the new docks and Zombie drinks are awesome. They just need to find ways to inject Tiki back to the outdoor patio. read more

Went for the first time and had a really good time with my coworkers. The atmosphere was really good reminds me of being on vacation and the staff was excellent. The menu is different which was a positive for me because I like trying new things. Everyone at our table got something different so we were able to try different things. Definitely planning a return trip! read more

I was invited out for a birthday dinner here. Getting to the entrance was a little maze but I'll know for the next visit. There was a 45 minute wait fir a table outside. While we waited there was a small bee swatting issue. Our waitress was excellent, knowledgeable and attentive. There were 7 of us and she did really well. The food was also pretty good. A friend and I split the crab fries (not pictured) -- which were pretty good in flavor but was a little lack luster in presentation. As you'll see on the chicken, that's how the crab was placed on the fries with their house sauce (that actually taste like hot sauce mixed with some other stuff) but I like hot sauce so it was very tasty. I would have like more crab meat and I would have liked for it to stick to the food better. It was like crab meat crumbles -- not cute. We also got the crab cake sandwich was also tasty! Everything was tasty! MY BIGGEST ISSUE AND THE REASON I WILL NOT BE SITTING OUTSIDE BEFORE 6PM ARE THE BEES! They have a bee problem. It sort of felt like our table was the only one experiencing it or everyone else could've been playing it cool -- but there was sure bee hive somewhere near by. No less than 8 bees were swarming our table. Our waitress let us know that the bees usually go away when the sun goes down and she was right. They did leave once the sun went down but we'd been there for a while before the sun went down lol so we'd already been tormented by the bees. There was live music which was really fun and interactive. There was singer name Matthew Billor -- great voice. When we go back we want to experience the inside but it is definitely a nice place. I had to take off that fifth star because of the bees. read more

Very very laid back and casual ... Hawaiian tops and flip flops all day. Tried my first oyster here... I would recommend the half oyster instead of the full , because can get through tall of them. Also, the peel n eat shrimp are pretty good. Service was good, but the thing that got me was the menu... they had things on their menu that no longer served and what they did have wasn't on the menu!! Clue in; you have to ask the server about everything! read more

We made reservations early in the day and got a confirmation notification for 5 at 7:30 PM. We got to the restaurant and was told we can not make same day reservations and the wait was at least an hour and a half. We left and got about a block away and got a notification that our table was ready. I won't waste my time like that again. It is a beautiful restaurant, great location that seems very poorly run. read more

Can't believe I'm giving another another 2 star review back to back but here I am... Girls night out with a few of my favorite Yelp Elite girls a few nights ago tikidocks. Fabulous company, great vibe but truth be told ~ the service and food could have been better. Our server couldn't be bothered with us as we watched him spend all his time with another table. He even tossed a sauce cup of lemons on our table after overhearing my friend say she forgot to ask. Small positions of mediocre food that was very over priced. Missed opportunity to not serve pineapple fried rice in a pineal shell- huge disappointment for a small bowl of rice that I subbed out chicken for- $15. But the ambiance is awesome- it truly carried this place. All that being said- I believe you all need to form your own opinion and try a spot out to see for yourself. -TampaFoodMom read more

Tiki Docks Riverview - Happy hour Pina - Salad Near Me - Riverview, Florida

Try the Hawaiian BLT! It's a sandwich made with crispy pork belly (which looks like fat bacon) lettuce and pineapple. It was amazing. They serve it with Hawaiian cole slaw (also has pineapple). I was amazed. It's a full bar so if you want a libation, they can accommodate you. The evening we were there they also had live music outside, which was nice. We sat outside and the music wasn't too loud. We were able to carry on a conversation without yelling. It's a very nice restaurant and bar with incredibly good food. read more

This establishment just opened, so be warned that it will be packed, parking is hard to find, many had to park on the street. The wait times are also long. But it was worth it to me and my friend. The crab cakes are amazing, and the drinks are good! They have live music as well! What's even better, is it's right up the street from my residence! This is a nice, lively, local spot, and I'm glad they opened here! The atmosphere and decor is peaceful, and it feels like I'm on vacation! I recommend! read more

Amazing relaxed atmosphere my friend's and i really enjoyed all 3 meals we had and drinks were great also!

We were visiting family and Tiki came highly recommended. It was a fun afternoon. The food is good but not a culinary miracle. The service is adequate but not 5 star. The only 5 star observations was the tall manager who was doing everything from shucking oysters to bussing tables and running food and talking w every guest, including us. My family owns a small business so seeing someone care that much and work that hard is uncommon and every one of us in our party of 13 noticed. Seeing that someone actually cared about the customers made our average experience an amazing experience. read more

Happy hour and beautiful views. Perfect spot to visit and enjoy the Alafia river anytime of the day. This place continues to invest back into its business. Adding docks off the river for boaters to stop in and enjoy a refreshing beverage and bites. . Friend and I shared the coconut shrimp dinner and I enjoyed a high noon all while taking in the surrounding area and calm waterfront. Our bar staff was so quick and responsive. This was the first time at this location. I've visited the location in st Pete a few times and they really outdid their selves on this one. The gorgeous waterfall, fire tiki flames and fun decorations throughout. Makes this a fun place to visit and I'm sure beautiful in the evening. Looking forward to visiting when out on the Alafia boating again. read more

The food was ok, it was very hot outside and maybe that's why my server wasn't in the best mood. I only saw a smile on her face when she handed me the check. It was a holiday and she seemed young so probably just wanted to clock out and enjoy the holiday. So I can complete understand. The burger still was just ok and was about as Hawaiian as Texas lol. This place is great for family and friends visiting to get drinks and some shareable apps. read more

Tiki Docks Riverview - Burger and fries - Salad Near Me - Riverview, Florida

only gave it three stars because my margaritas were delicious! I've dined here over a year ago I didn't think much of it except for the vibe was nice by the river but the food and service was over priced and mediocre. This place was suggested for dinner with some friends and I figured i'd try it again since the last time was over a year ago it would probably a better experience right? NO! the server was kinda rude so the service was still blah and the food was even more blah. $18 for a couple coconut shrimp that barely tasted like coconut and i guess they tried to compensate that with the enormous amount of fries that came with it but no. Not worth $18 at all definitely could get this cheaper somewhere else and with better quality. If i go back id probably just go for drinks but i wouldn't recommend this place for food at all. underwhelming and overpriced. read more

So Tiki Docks in Riverview is a vibe. The majority of the time they have live music and is set right off the river. Ed is a perfect server...attentive to all our needs, personable, and easy on the eyes. The Fresh Watermelon Margarita is delicious and perfect for summertime. The Puka Punch is delicious!! My favorite drink for sure but not the strongest. Lets get into these crab cakes...they are fire and the combination of flavors really set this dining experience off right! My man got the wings and said they were tender with a sweet/savory flavor. Shrimp fried rice was good and the shrimp were seasoned well. Too bad they dont have multiple hotsauce options not just Tobasco. Believe it or not the cocktail sauce is so strong it went well over the shrimp, mixed into the rice. But this cocktail sauce thoooooo. Listen hunni it is skrong, horseradish on 10 you hear me, it is definitely from scratch. Ya nose will be twitching like when you put too much wasabi on that sushi lol. It came with my Peel n Eat Steamer which included street corn.... A++. I mean they really excuted it well. Lips smacking!! The Bora Bora rice is basic but overall a great job, I definitely will come back. Happy Mother's day!!! read more

I think one of the best things about this place is the ambiance and the outdoor seating. You feel transplanted into a tiki bar which has live music. What a way to start your day and have a nice lunch here with some great delicious food. I was just visiting here and my friends recommended this place. The grilled wings, corn and oysters were really tasty, fresh and hearty. We didn't make reservations to come here beforehand but we came early when they opened so we were able to sit outside. Our view was water flowing down a wall which was relaxing. The oysters are really fresh and man that grilled corn was delicious. I love wings and this place cooked them just right. So I highly recommend all of the above. The waitress we had was really nice and pleasant and helpful. Kudos to the service and to making us feel welcomed. read more

Atmosphere is amazing. Food and drinks are horrible. Service is a mix. Atmosphere: this place is a 10 out of 10. Love everything about it. Outside and inside are both great places to hang out. Love the water, the colors, the painting/artwork inside and out, waterfall. Everything looks great. It's very clean and comfortable. You can watch sports from just about anywhere inside and also at the outside bar. Appreciate that the music wasn't loud. Perfect volume to not take away from the experience. Food: tacos are terrible, very dry. Everything about them from the tortillas to the filling are horrible. Wedge salad has the worst lettuce I've ever seen at a restaurant. I wouldn't feed it to an animal. Fries were decent. Didn't risk ordering anything else but I've heard it's bad. Left early to get food elsewhere. Drinks: don't order anything that contains juice. Whatever they use must be horrible quality, ruins the drinks. The Painkiller is one of my favorite classic cocktails. Theirs is the worst I've ever had. Couldn't drink it. Other fruity drinks were awful. That being said, I thought the watermelon margarita would have been a safe bet based on the ingredients but it was drowning in lime juice, which you have to be careful with when pairing with something as mild as watermelon. Couldn't taste the watermelon at all unfortunately. Another fail. Great garnishes, but they were the only plus. Pretty much everything we've eaten and drank here was inedible and undrinkable. Very disappointing. Service: bartender inside who introduced herself as Katie was super sweet and attentive. Unfortunately we really wanted a seat outside and decided to move. The tall blonde out there with short hair had a bad attitude the whole time, made us feel unwelcome. Can't believe this place closes so early. Would expect it to be open till 2-3 on Friday and Saturday nights. Sure they'd stay busy. read more

The decor here is Disney-esque, all bright colors and beautiful lights. It's really impressive inside and out, while the parking is bigger than Walmart. Our food was just mediocre, though, and service was eager but clueless. My blackened shrimp, cod and pork belly tacos were ok, but the soft wrappers were refrigerator cold instead of grilled hot as they should be. There were a lot of chips, but only enough salsa to cover 2 of them. My friends chicken salad was extremely bland and average. The side of pork belly looked more like bacon bits from a bottle. My other friends crab cake app was more appetizing, and ample with 3 instead of the usual 2. Our young male bartender had impressive tats, but zero situational awareness. We had to wave a flag for everything. I'd stop in again for drinks. The food is nothing special. read more

Came here on a Monday evening after driving by countless times. Seating was immediate. Ended up sitting at the corner high chair table which was the perfect spot. Our waitress, Christina, was personable and attentive to us. The care of the staff members definitely made an impression. Food was ok. The Tiki Burger was VERY salty I could only eat half of it but I did enjoy our starter: Classic Hand Battered Chicken Tenders paired with their signature Pina Colada Honey Mustard. The sauce was very tasty and I did not hesitate to dip the crinkle fries in it too. The live music starred this young man who skillfully played the steelpan. It was familiar Pop Music -Caribbean style. Felt like his music was the heart beat of the restaurant because it was not the food. Would consider giving it one more shot just to try the drinks and order appetizers only. read more

We met some friends here for lunch, and it was pretty good. They have a large patio overlooking the river, and a descent inside. The service for a weekday lunch didn't seem that bad. She look short handed, but she was really good. Some food items were much better than others, but they were all good. If you like smoked fish, I recommend the smoky fish dip to start. It came with cucumbers and pork rinds. The cocktails were tasty and also very strong. We tried the fog cutter and the watermelon margarita. The watermelon on the margarita was a bit large for a garish but was sweet. I really recommend the grouper dinner. It had a lot of flavor and the mango salsa was delicious. There was nothing special to the crab cakes but they are good too. I would come back if I was in the area. read more

Very well staffed, amazing food and quick service. This restaurant accommodates all guests.

Hello, Thanks for checking out my review. Food is my favorite hobby, I do not cook at all, so I'm constantly on the hunt for something amazing to eat and writing about it is my second favorite hobby... I hope it helps you as you find your next meal. Enjoy and good eating!! I always rate a place by 5 categories ranging from 1 - 5 stars and why. (Atmosphere, Service, Food, Price & Overall Experience). Atmosphere: 5 This place is industrial awesome! There is plenty of parking. When you walk up to the front door there is a huge triangular wall that is a waterfall drip with fire tiki lights on all four corners. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with sliding glass walls to go between. The outdoors can get warm however they have so many fans it creates a wonderful breeze. Inside there are high ceilings with an open view of the kitchen. The colors are bright and cheery, it's very clean and well designed. It sits on the water with gorgeous views along with a boat docks so people can boat up as well, with a little sand area for children to play. Service: 5 As soon as you walk in the hostess is greeting you to ask if you'd like a table or open bar. As soon as you sit down they're are taking your drink order and going over the menu with the specials and house favorites. When I went to the ladies room, two of the waitress were in there and asked them how they like the place. They said it's great for local and people passing through. They said it can be very weather dependent which is understandable with how much of it is outside and love working there. They also gave me a few other places to try in the area. Great girls. Food: 5 The drinks are so fresh and ridiculously tasty filled with fresh fruit and sizes where 10-12 ounces. The Ahi Tuna Poke was so fresh and the combination of tuna, with the guacamole base with a little spicy sauce and freshly chopped cilantro on top of a crispy wonton large round chip was so fresh and so good I wanted to order two of them. The salads looked amazing and have options for adding a grilled or blacked protein. The chicken wings were grilled which I have not had before and a little weary of but they were amazing, crispy large and coated with a Hawaiian BBQ sauce they was unique blend of savory and sweet BBQ served with a side of veggies and dipping options. Price: 5 For the price, the portions and food it was good. Drinks, apps and wings was about $40.00 before tip. Overall Experience: 5 I would love to go back in the evening to check out the night atmosphere. It looks like it would be great for a band! I will be back again. read more

Ate at the location in Riverview. When we arrive there was an 1 1/2 hour wait. We decided to sit at the bar which was pretty big with lots of tvs. It didn't take long before they called us but we decided to stay at the bar. We had the pork nachos and pork tacos with a mango margarita and the sangria. Both were very good. It came with a lot of meat and toppings, it was a pretty good portion size. The mango margarita was very good. The Sangria was very strong lol. Overall, I loved it. It's a huge restaurant with a great ambiance and good food. I would recommend read more
