Best Waterfront Restaurants in Nokomis

We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Dry Dock for Valentine’s Day. The restaurant was busy but the team had everything under control. We were greeted immediately and taken care of promptly at the bar for cocktails as we waited a very short time for our table. Our server was informative and efficient and went above and beyond to make us feel at home and understand the menu. Our food was amazing The snapper served right off the grill and the side veggies perfectly cooked. The jambalaya was piping hot and delicious. No room for dessert this time but the key lime pie was so tempting! 5 ⭐️

Great location with waterviews. The food was excellent, as was our service. When we got there, the outside seating for the live music was full, so we dined inside.

Have eaten here several times and it is always outstanding. Glad they reopened after the damage from the hurricane. Menu is always interesting, food excellent, service excellent (Chris was our latest waiter), table by the water gives excellent view even of the Osprey nest not far away. Though "pricey", it is always an exceptional experience and one we always remember and look forward to.

The food was delicious & portions were generous. Service was perfect & friendly! Food prices were reasonable (for the great quality) but drink prices were pretty high. We sat out on the patio (on the parking lot side). The music was a bit loud, which made it difficult to hear conversations with our guests. We probably should have just asked our server if she could turn it down a bit, but didn’t think to do that. Overall, it was a great dining experience with an easy solution…talk louder & drink less ;)

Waitress was phenomenal! Sadly forget her name. We had reservations right at sunset, they were completely packed and still got us in right on time. Drinks were ok but to be fair we each tried “out of the box” options for ourselves so we when we return we’ll be giving those another shot. The grouper sandwich was right hand to god one of the best fish sandwiches I’ve had in my life. I’ve written 2 reviews my whole life but that sandwich alone made me want to express my gratitude and appreciate for the beautiful staff and crew at this location. Will be returning !
