While the food was good the service was not. Our server gave us the wrong drink and food and was not attentive.
the food was amazing!! definitely try the dry rub wings and fish and chips! you can definitely tell the fish is fresh and hand battered! our waitress was friendly, attentive, and welcoming- and the live music was fantastic! i wouldn’t listen to the negative comments, those people just don’t like change! it’s not anthony’s, it’s better!
We went because we heard they had a dedicated fryer just for gluten free. We had the pork nachos for an appetizer and were very tasty. For dinner the gluten free chicken tenders. It was very good and a whole lot of food. The server’s were very knowledgeable of the menu for what was and was not gluten free. I was very confident with my celiacs. Had no reaction at all. Would definitely go back again.
After eating a lot of fried food during our vacation, my Husband and I decided we needed a salad night. I ordered a Caesar salad with blackened chicken and my husband got the garden salad with fried chicken....he ruined his healthy meal with more fried food LOL. You could order a half or whole portion. We both ordered a whole. It was a very good fresh, crisp salad. I cant say it was HUGE portion for the price but it was good and we had a lakeside view so it was fine. Unfortunately, we were seated by a large party that were less than desirable...talking about their feet and toe nails. Gross. Not the restaurants fault.
Danielle was the best server ever.. she was there to serve us whenever we needed something and after too many drinks she actually got a ride home with the bartender Charlie.. they’re both the best.. this place rocks
Giving a shout out to Annie our server from our visit back on July 29th, 2025. Annie truly turned around our first time experience for all 3 of us (me, my 81 year old Dad & my sister) ,........we asked to be moved from the bar to a table outside because the negative energy exuding from the female bartender made us feel so uncomfortable. (not surprised the bar was empty) How pleased that we wound up with such an engaged, friendly server!! If it wasn't for Annie, we would never visit again. We got the cheeseburger nacho appetizer on Annie's recommendation, they were yummy!! Thank you Annie!!
Super friendly staff, and food was great. There was live music early Thursday when we went, definitely a great spot.
Manager was great with food allergies (peanut and dairy). Food tasted delicious.
Had a delicious Downsize burger while enjoying great live music! Great service! We will definitely make the drive to eat here again!
My husband, sister and I had a wonderful afternoon at Dox. We were very impressed by the facelift the new owners put on this place, so vibey and pretty. The food was excellent, I can’t speak highly enough about the poke tuna nachos, so fresh and creative! Although we didn’t sit in this section, something that we loved was the addition of the large Adirondack chairs overlooking the lake, such a fun concept! I’m excited to revisit this summer and try other menu items.
