Reviews for A-J's Dockside Restaurant in Tybee Island, GA
The major highlight of this place is the sunset view that you can have! This place is super-crowded so reservation in advance is... highly recommended. They also have a nice bar inside. Prices were a little above but I'd say is worth when bundled with theview. Food is also okay, wouldn't really say it's amazing. But the place is truely nice to have a dinner during the sunset.

I came here after endless recommendations, but unfortunately, I had a really bad experience here. The good: the location is... great (I like that it's out of the way and quiet) and the bartenders were super friendly. The bad: pretty much everything elseon our visit. We made a reservation days in advance for 7:30pm. On a weekday. Didn't think there would be any issues. We droveall the way from Savannah just to come here. We arrived at 7:20 and were asked to wait at the bar. No problem. We ordereddrinks. We saw an open table outside and assumed we would be seated soon. We weren't. At about 7:50, I went up to ask about ourtable, just in case they forgot. We'd be seated soon, they said. We went back to the bar. Another 40 minutes pass and it's now8:30, an hour after our reservation. This place closes at 9, mind you. I don't like to be pushy, but I went back up front andlet them know our reservation was an hour ago. They finally agreed to seat us. The kicker? They sat us at that table we saw anhour ago, which had been empty the whole time. Our table was there, they were just too disorganized to realize it. So yeah, wefinally got to eat. But was now pitch dark outside and we felt rushed because they were about to close. We could barely even seeour food it was so dark on the deck and we completely missed the sunset, which was the whole point of us making a reservationfor 7:30. They didn't apologize or offer to comp a drink or anything. When we finally got food, my blackened shrimp werehilariously over-seasoned to the point of almost being inedible, and they messed up two of our orders and brought us the wrongsides. We didn't even care at that point and didn't even say anything. We just ate as fast as we could and left. I wish I couldagree with everyone else about this place, but it was an awful experience for us. Won't be coming back. Read more
We visited here for the first time and we enjoyed the atmosphere. This is a great place to eat for some amazing sunsets. The... food was good and I really enjoyed the crab cakes. I suggest making reservations to be seated promptly because it is busy. Ourserver Jessica was amazing. She knew the menu well and offered some great suggestions. I like that it's away from the busystrip. We will come back again on our next visit to Tybee Island. Read more
Delicious food and drinks, worth the price! Huge servings, shareables, happy hour specials until 7. Great place to watch the... sunset! If you can get a reservation. From appetizers to desserts, AJs knocks it out of the park! Always busy and fully booked.You will have to get a reservation 2 days ahead. They do have walk in seating but you will have to wait. Local favorite place toeat. Bar seating is available and the bartenders are always wonderful company and service. Read more

MAKE RESERVATIONS! They are booked because they?re great,guys. Don?t miss out. Read more
We waited a little past our reservation time, however our waitress Mindy was absolutely amazing. She was able to give such... amazing recommendations. The service and the food there was so tasty and perfectly cooked! The drink was smooth and still verystrong! I would highly recommend this place and getting Mindy as your waitress if you can!!! You absolutely get what you pay forso it is expensive but 100% worth it! Pictured below is the Sunset Margarita, Buffalo shrimp, the dinner combo with blackenedshrimp, flounder, and sweet potato fries plus the sunset Read more
We had ridden by on our bikes before, but didn't have a chance to stop in before. Bike is the way to go or walk because parking... is tight, and there's NO street parking. If you're looking for a casual place to have a beer or margarita while watching thesunset, this is the place to be, but het there early. We were by chance and waited in line for the place to open. There's plentyof choices on the beverage menu and the dinner menu looked good, but we only wanted a small bite so we had the spinach dip. Read more
