Dock's is one of the most highly regarded restaurants in town. Specializing in seafood and oyster dishes, it's a true Atlantic City landmark. Dock's has been a family-owned restaurant ever since Harry "Call Me Dock" Dougherty first opened the doors in 1897.

Once you sit down and see the enormous lobsters being served, you'll want one. They're as good as they look. Over a century of operation has given them time to perfect some absolutely terrific seafood dishes, but they also know not to mess with a good thing. The oyster stew served in the restaurant today is made from the same recipe that was followed when the restaurant first opened. You can literally take a bite of Atlantic City history.

Dock's has a cozy little bar area that has piano music and some great martinis. It's a fun place to wait for your table.

What a great "Foodie" experience
If you have a high food interest, you'll love Docs. The restaurant is very clean, spacious, and the raw bar is a fun experience. When in Atlantic City, this is a must visit for people who appreciate great food, service and cocktails. ....Click Here for the full review

Great Bar
I had heard about Doc's from a friend who raved about it. He was right. The food was fantastic and the small bar near the entrance has great drinks and was a lot of fun. It's pricey, but you're going to pay about the same at any of the casino restaurants. ....Click Here for the full review
