Pictured is Orecchiette with Lobster. This was amazing. If you love pasta and lobster please go there to try it. It is one of the best pasta dishes I have ever had. Highly recommend this dish. The restaurant itself was nice. Right inside a marina with water views. Good seating outside and inside. Service was great! Will go back again and eat some more Orecchiette with Lobster!

Unbelievable! Delicious Rhode Island chowder to start. Then an amazing lobster pot pie! Yes! Lobster pot pie!!! Huge chunks of lobster with the best flaky crust! And to top it off, the staff were all welcoming. Our server Chrissy was very good. She treated us well. Honestly, I eat out a lot and I was amazed how great the dining experience was.

Beautiful location at a marina with water views and lots of outdoor shaded seating. Service was great and food was good. Seafood menu with many options. Everything we had was cooked well and fried seafood was not greasy. If you are looking for a New England seafood spot with great views this is the place.

Just out for a drive along the shoreline with my soul mate. We arrived to this quaint tucked away restaurant I found online. We decided to sit on the patio to enjoy the sunset and be able to see the water. Our waitress was amazing, very kind, sweet, and knowledgeable. There was a table beside us which sat a beautiful family. The drinks were so delicious, but when the food arrived my mouth began to water. We ordered a captain's platter of various fried seafood. I'm not much of a fried food eater, but the batter was light, crispy, not too salty, and fresh. Everything was so inviting and romantically delicious. We will definitely return.

While it was once Sam's Dockside, it is now simply Dockside. Same place, same phone number, same location.

No there is not a kids menu. Not a great place to bring kids. It can get really busy. The food is fantastic!

Is this a good place for a group of 30 (including kids) to go for drinks and hang out for a few hours?

Give 'em a call. Depends on when you were thinking about. I'm sure they would be willing to try and accommodate you, again depending on when you were planning your gathering. Really great owners and incredible staff.
