Great Seafood Dining
by scoper at Citysearch
I've been dining here for the past few years. The service is always good, as is the food. The exotic and colorful saltwater aquariums, along with the nautical theme theme, really sets this restaurant off. On weekends, they have very good live entertainment, with music to appeal to the 40's-70's crowd.
- Pros: Plenty of parking, great entertainment on weekends
- Cons: Usually need a reservation

the worst seafood restaurant I've ever been to.
by messiah at Citysearch
My girlfriend and I had a horrible lunch today. Not because of the service, which was prompt and courteous, but because of every other conceivable thing. In non-smoking it stunk of smoke. The salad dressings were watery. The food was bland, and the food they did season tasted horrible. It also seemed funny that not only were the guests elderly, the staff seemed to be as well. Overall, Dover is a nautical themed dining room appropriate for a nursing home.
- Pros: has a parking lot, roof doesnt leak, pets not allowed
- Cons: The food, The ambience, stinks of smoke
