Just an OK place in Charlotte

The Dock Restaurant on East Blvd. in Dilworth is the third try for this location in the past 2 yrs. We sat on the top open air "patio". Everyone ordered drinks and appetizers. The drinks were great. The margaritas were made from fresh lemon/lime juice and were thoroughly enjoyed, the wine was good and my house vodka (SKY) was fine. The strawberry/basil(?) mojito was way too sweet and was never removed from the bill even after two trys to make it less sweet wtih some club soda. The FOOD: Fish tacos were very good and the sauce served with it GREAT. She crab soup good but a little more orangy than normal. Hummus good with fresh red pepper and warmed pitas -- nice touch. Guacamole was very tasty with nice plump pieces of shrimp and chips were slightly salted and crisp. My ceviche was mediocre. The fish tasted either a bit freezer burned or of absorbed odors from the frig. Nothing when compared to the ceviche served at the Mexican restuarant across the street!!! Thank God the company made up with what was lacking in my ceviche! Bathroom was fairly clean and parking easy. Repeat Visit: Probably not.
