Riviera Dunes Dockside

The food was delicious as I ordered the Tuna Tataki appetizer, Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos, and the Hawaiian margarita. My only suggestions is salt and more chipotle flavor in the cole slaw. I ordered a side of Bang Bang sauce on the side as the taco need a little more sauce. The Hawaiian margarita is delicious, but it will sneak up on you which is how good they are.

We were so excited to pull up on our boat until we saw how mammoth everyone else's were hahahaha The place was packed. A band was playing do that was awesome, but that's were the positives end. The drinks were ok--nothing great. The Buffalo egg rolls were OK. The burger was kind of dry, tasted like a frozen burger. And the side risotto was not great. The Bang Bang Taco was alright. It took over 40 minutes for our dinner. It was also pretty expensive for food that was just mediocre at best. As fun as the scenery is, we probably will not be back. 9/25/21 went back for a second visit, and the experience was slightly better, so I changed the rating. The atmosphere is very relaxing. They had a band playing again, which is always a plus. The drinks were ok. During this visit, we ordered the porkchop with risotto and mashed potatoes..... The meat was cooked perfectly. We also ordered shrimp tacos. The food came out hot. 3/7/22 went for dinner since my son in town, and what a disappointment. No one was here.....which should have made us turn around being the dinner rush hours. We've had mediocre food here before, but tonight was subpar. The calamari was raw. Like, I'll never eat it again raw...... My husband actually spit it out, and he never complains. We told our server and still had to pay the $14. I ordered the grouper tacos, and it's just ok. I couldn't eat it after the calamari. The pork chop was good. The risotto eh.... cold. My husband's jambalaya was so hot he burned his mouth. The featured cocktails weren't anything special. It's beautiful here and the water is amazing but we've given enough chances... We won't be back.

The seafood pasta was great! Lobster bisque lacked the lobster though. Our drinks were good. The Bartender was super busy but well mannered. A service Bartender just for volume would have been great and would have allowed the opportunity to brand himself and encourage repeat business. We will go back because the food was amazing.
