4.5 / 5.0(322 reviews)

Found this place for breakfast. Was very pleased with portion size And price is very comparable to other places on the island. We came back for dinner on the last night, and very glad we did. That Mahi mahi Ceviche, would have gave my right arm for it.Snapper, would have gave the left. I would have tried dessert but I wanted to walk out of there with some dignity. In every sense, A + ! They pour a good solid drink. Asian Shrimp app (pic #1l) was simply superb & it was a tad bit spicy! Pasta with EXTREMELY tender beef Tenderloins was outrageously tasty! (picture #2) Their Dutch Style Apple Pie was off the charts good, I mean really good! (pic #3) Service was on point, bathrooms very clean, restaurant is simply strong! We loved The Dock. We ate there twice. Great atmosphere on the marina. Loved the decor. For dinner service was a bit slow and haphazard. Forgot salad. Didn't bring menus. But still very pleasant and food delicious. I got the shrimp and homemade pasta, my daughter got the mushroom risotto and my husband got the tuna steak. We all loved our meals. We went back for breakfast a few days later. One of the few places that offered omelets and Dutch pancakes. Service was efficient for breakfast.

We had a bit of a difficult time finding this place the first time we visited, but we’re glad we tried again on our last day! We went to the dock for lunch before heading to the airport. We were immediately sat and had beautiful views of the water area, and was covered from the sun. My husband opted for a Mojito. I stayed with sparkling water. I ordered the poke bowl, and ate every bite. It was absolutely delicious and one of my favorite meals on the island. My husband ordered the carpaccio sandwich, and that was just as big and filling. He loved it! This place really is incredible for its food and drink. The staff are super kind and friendly, and we found service to be just as great. We love that the intimate space allowed people to enjoy where they’re at whether you’re in a large group or small couple enjoying a meal. There’s also plenty of seating near the dock area in the sun if you want. It’s very cool that there are opportunities for voters to tie up their boat to come here for lunch . And the restaurant also serves those by the pool who are staying at the resort. There’s plenty of covered area so you don’t have to worry about getting in the sun if you don’t want. The bathroom is shared down the hall and is easy to find. The decorations are fun and fit well into the cabana Caribbean field of the island. From the looks of it, we wouldn’t mind staying here on our next trip. If you’re looking for a great meal before hitting the airport, since they’re really isn’t any place to eat there, we highly recommend the dock! We can’t wait to come back again on our next trip.

We ate here twice in the ten days we were in Bonaire, best restaurant we found in the island. Over peak periods you definitely need to book in advance (easily done online). Lovely atmosphere, surroundings, attentive service and delicious food. Highly recommend - they will also adapt food for children if they don’t want to eat if the more adults menu (our 11 & 13 year old were very happy with the choices though).
