Reviews for The Fish Dock at Pelican Point in Crescent, GA

My husband and I heard about this place a couple of years ago and we happened to be traveling on I-95, so we decided to try it... out. Some people complained about the atmosphere and that it needed maintenance, upgrade. I like to think it was rustic and itwas part of the charm. It's about 7 miles off I-95. Our waitress was Kim. She was friendly, helpful with ordering and saving usa little money and busy. There were not that many people there, but she was the only waitress and she was working hard. I thinkshe had other duties too. We had clams for our appetizer, fried shrimp and snapper with twisted fries and grits for lunch.Everything was really good! It tasted really fresh. I even thanked my food for their sacrifice. However, the grits requirespecial mention because they were so freaking delicious! They were so melt in your mouth buttery. The food was expensivethough. I mean for what we paid, I would expect my food to be on a plate, not in a basket. Maybe because it was lunch time isthe reason that we got baskets. It would have really classed it up though to have real plates and make me feel like the moneyspent was worth it. I also would think the food would be less expensive because it's caught and cooked right there. There is nomiddle man to pay. The staff mentioned they were having a big event that night. I was wondering where everyone would parkbecause parking was pretty limited. It was not something I had to worry about, but it made me curious. Overall, I am verysatisfied about our lunch there. And if we ever travel near there again, we might just to stop ???? Read more

We had a wonderful meal tonight!!! We chose to sit out on the screened in patio. There was a nice breeze and beautiful views of... the marsh. The food and service was superb. I highly recommend this establishment!!! Read more

The amazing staff from the newly opened Red Roof Inn in Darién recommended the Fish Dock. A well hidden gem with a lot of... character and history. The place is in need of a renovation but is worth the deviation from I-95. The menu is limited if youexpect fancy seafood, but the food is good and the service is great. I will be back Read more

If you want fresh seafood, highly recommend. The beautiful view of the river and delicious food is worth the drive. Our server... Kim was so kind, and very knowledgeable about the history of the restaurant and menu selections even though she had only beenworking there since April. We loved watching the shrimp boat pass by and waited patiently to see sightings of dolphins we heardyou can see there frequently. ???? We live in Savannah but whenever we head to Jekyll and St Simons again, we will be stoppinghere on the way home. Read more

Our service from Kelly was fantastic! Our orders came out quickly and she was very attentive and gave great recommendations.... Everything was great but our favorite thing was the shrimp and grits. We will be back! Read more

Excellent food and excellent service. We were there on Friday night when they had a band playing. The local flounder sandwich... and clams were excellent. Reasonably priced and great atmosphere. Definitely recommends. Read more

My wife and I took our pastor and his wife out for some good seafood and my pastor got surf and turf and he said it was good.... His wife got fried shrimp and oysters as did my wife and they liked their food.I got the captains burger. I know, burger at aseafood place is like pizza at a Chinese restaurant but I just don't eat a lot of seafood. we all walked down to the dock andgot some good group photos of us over looking the marsh at sunset, what a beautiful view. The staff was friendly and the foodwas good. I have not been since it was pelican point and I will be back. Read more

Highly recommended. Food was terrific - from the salsa and cheese to the fish and pasta to the pie. Everything tasted terrific.... Great location and live music on Friday and Saturdays. Atmosphere a little dated but traditional for a coastal spot; the priceswere what you would expect from a more formal experience and nicer environment. Fortunately, wife and I were seated down by thewindow near the water so it felt like our own experience and private, otherwise I may have given 4 stars as a lot of guestsdress very casual. Would still recommend for the food and spot however. Can?t wait to go back. Read more
