Reviews for Docks Bar & Grill in Wauconda, IL
Today was my second time coming here and my husband's first time. I remembered this place fondly from the first time I visited... last year. I had a great time that summer evening with my group of friends. Today my husband and I came in during lunch hours,and were seated promptly outside on the deck area. We ordered our food and even though it took a while for the food to get to uswe didn't mind. We were enjoying the ambience, being by the water and enjoying each other's company. Overall it was a veryenjoyable experience, the food was good, the staff was friendly and accommodating. This place is very clean, organized and therestrooms are so fancy. I want to return soon for drinks and maybe another time come back and bring my puppy to the outside deckarea. Read more
Overall experience was great. We got seated for lunch almost immediately. Our waitress took our order and brought our drinks... right away. I had a burger with a fried egg, cheddar cheese, bacon lettuce and tomato. The quality was good and it was cookedmedium how I asked. Our waitresses was not the friendliest or most attentive to our drink needs but overall still a goodexperience. Awesome view of Lake Bangs off the back deck. Read more
We came in on father's day and even though it was so busy (which we kind of expected) my family and I had a great time. We were... on the waiting list for a bit, but we got some drinks at the bar and we were soaking in the view. (it's so beautiful) And on topof that there were so many dogs, so we got seated it was like the time few. We had the nachos which were a great appetizer foreveryone and our server was outstanding. She was so nice and accommodating even though she and the rest of the staff were crazybusy. We were surprised to how fast we were able to get our food and drinks. Our server was also very informative about thecocktails (I'm not the biggest drinker, so my knowledge is very limited). She talked about being a bartender their as well, sowe lucked out cause she was so good at getting all of us the right drinks. Read more
OMG I had lunch while working (Paving parking lot) that burger wS EVERYTHING ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. The staff were all friendly.... I will definitely be back again Read more
After finally being seated, waited and waited for someone to acknowledge us. And the girl knew we were there because as we were... sitting there, she removed the previous guest bill from the table. 15+ minutes later, not even anyone looking our way. Was goingto get up and just leave, but walked over to manager to let him know. He immediately send someone to us, but as far as I'mconcerned, the damage was already done. I understand because of being crowded and everyone's staffing concerns, it takes time.To to not be acknowledged or even eye contact is unacceptable. Read more
Nice view of the lake on their deck. The food is ok but the atmosphere is the real draw here.
You can customize your burger or patty melt! The beef is amazing and we would go there again! Was told the Cole slaw and turkey... sandwich was great as well. The French onion soup had more of a herbal taste than strong onion flavor. Read more
Nice relaxing place. Lunch was great. Thick, cool and fresh. Service was what you would expect. Attentive but not pushy. Good... background music. Looking to forward to coming back some evening or weekend night! Read more
