Was Chione Giacomarro at B&b Dockside a mag?
What a fantastic little restaurant! The staff was welcoming, and the dishes we tried were exceptional. The burger was cooked to perfection, just as I requested, and the sweet potato fries were among the best I've ever tasted. The entree salad with cucumber dressing was also delightful.

What Eric Crespo dislikes about B&b Dockside:
Excellent food and service, fair prices, would definitely return to this place for breakfast Edit: apparently the quality of the food fluctuates. I came back today and the food was mediocre. I ordered the exact same meals (stuffed Portuguese toast for my kids, dirty hash for myself). The hash brown was simultaneously overcooked and undercooked (crispy to a fault and a mashed potato texture underneath). The Portuguese... View all feedback.

After a prolonged wait, our meals arrived, presented nicely. The breakfast burritos, while loaded with toppings, were overly salty and dry, and the hashbrowns were undercooked. We also tried a KT burger, which, despite the KT sauce, was disappointingly bland. The pancakes were the highlight of the meal, as they were fluffy and sweet. When it came time to settle the bill, we noticed an extra charge for something we hadn't ordered. After waiting for our waiter to return, we ultimately had to go inside to get it rectified. Overall, while the atmosphere is delightful, the service and food need significant improvement.
I have been to b&b Dockside five times for breakfast with my wife, and we have loved each visit.
After waiting for 45 minutes, I decided to ask for my food to go, and only then did they mention that there was a backup. While I understand that delays can happen, it would have been nice to be communicated with, so we could decide whether to stay or leave. When I left without leaving a tip, the waitress gave me a bewildered look at my receipt and muttered something under her breath as she walked away, which I found quite rude. All I had ordered was a cold tuna sandwich and a chili dog.
Dylan was such a great waiter, so thoughtful and intuitive. He made my moms birthday so special ?
Maybe it was the fact we had 7 folks wishing for a quaint breakfast. Maybe it was because we didn’t alert until we got there that we were a party of 7. Anyhoo…we ordered breakfast, oh wait, maybe it was because I ordered my hash browns crispy? Order taken. Watching other server hustle with his groups yet we never saw our server. Not even to alert us the kitchen is backed up, you’re a large party be patient, you’re next…nothing. Crickets. So we asked busy guy, he said he’d get back…which he did. Busy guy comes out with waters for his table, sees us still waiting, stops, zips around to back to wherever, asks (loudly) is that for table ? Food comes out. Warm to not so warm. AHA our server comes out asks if all is ok. We acknowledge. When she comes back again, to clear, I ask if kitchen was backed up, she said yes to where I mention the wait time. Long story short, would I go back, maybe. In the fall. On a Monday.

I'm usually difficult to impress, but B&B exceeded my expectations with excellent food, generous portions, and very reasonable prices. I give it 5 stars!
**** Mary and an unsettling coffee experience. It's always a fantastic spot for breakfast, burgers, or even breakfast burgers!
This place is a gem. The food, either breakfast or lunch is always top notch! Service is impeccable. They are above most on creativity with their combos for the omelettes and burgers!! The drinks there are pretty awesome as well. Waterfront/view is an added bonus season permitting.
Fantastic place! The atmosphere was relaxed and exceptionally welcoming, making you feel right at home. Definitely a must-visit!

I ordered the exact same meals (stuffed Portuguese toast for my kids, dirty hash for myself). The hash brown was simultaneously overcooked and undercooked (crispy to a fault and a mashed potato texture underneath). The Portuguese toast was not quite toasted, the bread was just bread with a thick slab of cream cheese in the middle. Overall, I am dissapointed with today's visit, though the hot chocolate was excellent.
