Dockside Waterfront Grill

08/17/2026

Huge thank you to Visit Sarasota County for featuring Dockside Waterfront Grill in such a wonderful article about Venice, FL in Southern Living! 🙌🌊

“Another local favorite is Dockside Waterfront Grill, where both visitors and locals come for the marina views, fresh seafood, and laid-back atmosphere. Grab a seat outside to watch boats drift by as the sun sets over the water, then dig into crowd favorites like the lobster roll or tuna nachos.”

We’re truly grateful for the recognition—and can’t wait to welcome everyone for those marina views, fresh seafood, and sunset vibes! 🌅🦞

Venice, Florida, blends white-sand beaches, shark tooth hunting, a walkable historic downtown, Gulf Coast dining, lodging, and outdoor fun.

Although our seafood takes the spotlight most days, our non-seafood dishes deserve a little time in the sun, too. 🌞

From hand-cut steaks and savory chicken dishes to fresh salads and flavorful favorites, there’s something on the menu for everyone to enjoy.

Whether you’re here for the catch of the day or something from the grill, pull up a seat and enjoy a meal everyone can love. 😋
