We again made the trip from Lititz, Pennsylvania to Calabash and were not disappointed with the people or the great service. My wife and I had the seafood platters that were fantastic and the hushpuppies were incrediable to the taste buds. We are looking forward to returning this summer on vacation and having a meal at the Dockside. ref: 5344

We've eaten at several restaurants near Myrtle Beach and after all the good reviews we've seen for Dockside figured we'd give it a try. Boy, were we disappointed. The menu was quite limited and if you didn't want your food deep-fried they charged you extra for the same item. The scallops did not taste good (very fishy) and the fried clamstrips were also not good. The clam chowder was good, but that was about it (our server was prompt and on the ball though). I do not recommend this restaurant. ref: 5304

My husband and I have been to Dockside's on our last 2 trips to the Myrtle Beach area and loved it both times. The seafood is so fresh and prepared perfectly. I would suggest trying it. The hush puppies are terrific! ref: 5223

My family and I have been going to Myrtle Beach as long as I can remember and we always look forward to having good seafood. After 46 years of going there on vacation, I can honestly say that I like Dockside the best. You get an ample portion of seafood because they put your potato of choice on a side dish; a lot of restaurants put a huge baked potato on your plate and then reduce the amount of seafood. Not Dockside. Some people complain that everything is fried; you're in the south....we fry things! But you can get seafood prepared other ways and yes it requires some extra time, but that's not unusual for any restaurant. If you wanna pay big money and go to a buffet where the food has been sitting for who knows how long....great; but at Dockside, it's reasonably priced, generous portions and the food tastes good. ref: 3824

After reading the reveiws, we decided on Dockside. With so many restaurants to choose from, how does one pick? Labor Day is not the weekend to come to Calabash. There was an hour and half wait. The staff was most courteous and doing all they could do. You can not be in a hurry. The food was excellent and prices very reasonable. We had the stuffed flounder and grouper special with wild rice, yum. We can't wait to go back - just not on a holiday.. . ref: 3723

I have been going to Dockside for as long as I can remember and I have never had a bad experience. The food is great and you defintley get your money's worth. I love the veiw, but if you plan on going during the summer make sure you get there early or plan on waiting, but it's worth the wait. The past few visit's have been even nicer because they are now doing specials every night and I haven't had a bad one yet. The trip wouldn't be the same without stopping by Dockside. ref: 3722

I would not recommend this place. It's a tourist trap. This place is just not that great, not horrible but not great. I ordered the raw oysters and it didn't taste freshly shucked but spooned out from a container from a store. The stuffed flounder was way over cooked and the soft shell crab didn't taste great. And you can't order vegetables, like brocolli. Almost EVERYTHING is fried! Maybe because I'm used to foods from the north-east restaurants, but this place is just a mass production of mediocre food with competitive prices. ref: 3235

Dockside is by far the best restaurant in the calabash area as well as on the strand. Been coming here for years and continue to eat here every time we are at the beach. Love it.

The fish was good and at a very reasonable price. Our group had three fish lovers and me, all reports on the lobster, grouper, shrimp, and scallops were very positive, they really liked it. I had a ribeye and can't remember the last time I had one that bad, I took about three bites and had hush puppies and some charity scallops (which were very good) the rest of the night. I know what you're thinking, don't order a steak at a fish place, I've tried it before and had good luck - not this time. I recommend Dockside to people looking for good fish at a reasonable price. ref: 2308

My wife and our family have been coming to the Dockside for over 35 years and continue to love the atmosphere and the warmth we always get form our servers. We especially like the hushpuppies and the variety of serving you can order. The deep fried serving have always been crisp and never soggy (I can taste those oysters and hushpuppies now). We recently drove form Lititz, PA to the Myrtle Beach area for the weekend and the birthday meal at the Dockside made the over 1000 mile experience well worth the trip. ref: 2234

This has been our favorite Calabash restaurant for many years - until August 2005 - when we were served scallops and oysters with grit in them - and were not offered replacement dinners or money back. ref: 2212

My family and I have eaten at the Dockside over 30 years. We go at least once every trip to Myrtle Beach. The orginal building burned in the 80's. The food is outstanding. Try to get a table near the window. The views are great in the late evening. It has become a family tradition that we eat there during the week of Thanksgiving. ref: 1562

My family and i always make it to the Dockside at least 2 or 3 times in a week when we are there for summer vacation. I have to say I would drive down just for the Hushpuppies.. They are the best anywhere. As a matter of fact, I would love to have about a dozen right now. ref: 1453

I was highly disappointed with this restaurant. My family and I went to this restaurant because it wasn't a seafood buffet and the review said it had great views. The actual seafood did not come from the boats that you could see from the restaurant -- it looked a whole lot like the shrimp I can buy from Sam's club. Everything seafood-wise was fried and I mean everything. You had to ask for it to be cooked another way and the other way was broiled and it was an extra cost.
The view that my family had was by the front door and we were sitting next to a return air vent that was full of dust. I am not a high maintenance person, but the dining room and bathrooms could use a little bit of cleaning.
My family and I got there around 5pm and did not have to wait at all. Had I gotten there and had to wait for the meal that I got I would of been madder than I am now about the food. I'm not saying that the food was completley horrible, it just seemed like it all came out of the same frier and not a whole lot of uniqueness about anything. Oh one last thing..I ordered raw oysters and I got a bowl full of them, yes a bowl full of them. Were they shucked in the back or bought buy the buckets? ref: 937

Great seafood on the waterfront in Calabash. Great views from almost anywhere in the diningroom. The only setback is that you need to make reservations and/or be prepared to have a wait. The restaurant stays packed in the summer months and always a wait but you can always walk around the docks and see the boats and fish & shrimp that were caught that day. ref: 92
