Reviews for Dockside Bistro & Wine Bar in Olympia, WA
Lovely little spot for lunch near the water. Service was exceptional (shoutout to Will!), food was good, and it was a good... introduction to why Olympia has to offer to some newcomers. Only downsides: It is a bit expensive ($90 for 4 apps); and I’vehad better seafood in the area. Again, it’s good, just not our favorite. Pictured: chowder, calamari, a seafood martini, anda crab cake with prawns. Read more

Dockside made a good date night with the friendly service and ambiance. The ingredients seem high quality and are prepared and... seasoned well. However, there really wasn't a wow factor to anything that would make me choose to go here over trying otherrestaurants in the area. Read more
Good! It's a little hard to find tucked in a poorly lit parking lot (for dinner that is). It's cozy inside and overlooks the... bay.I had the bisque and the scallops and they were superb! Very friendly staff and fast service. I would recommend for a nicequiet dinner! Read more
Great staff and service but the food was a little underwhelming. The sea scallops were over cooked. Resulting in a chewy and... spongy characteristic. The filet was ordered medium and came out medium-well. The potatoes for both plates were over cooked.Basically everything except the veggies were over cooked. When paying $40 a plate, I’m going to be expect a high result. Thecrab chowder was very tasty and the French 75 cocktail was great. $5 for bread fresh hot bread that most restaurants makecustomary is a little odd. That said, cute place with great view of the docks and inlet but lacks value and execution. Read more
Our dinner was great! The white fish gnocchi was amazing. I wish they had more variety of cheese in the cheese plate.
This restaurant has a beautiful view of the harbor and sunset. Great location and atmosphere. Our waitress was nice but seem... like it took forever for the food and desserts to arrive. Overall slow service allows us to get comfortable with each so I guessin some way isn't so bad after all. I had the lamb chop, it was perfectly cooked and full of flavors. Enjoy it with the housecab. The price seems to be a bit high for the value. Read more
