What User doesn't like about Dry Dock Waterfront Grill:
The service felt rushed, which was disappointing. We were in and out within an hour. The grouper was excellent, but the sides tasted like frozen mixed vegetables. Overall, it wasn't as good as many of my previous visits. View all feedback. What User likes about Dry Dock Waterfront Grill:
