Sam & Maggie's Dockside Grill

The menu doesn't change weekly, just a few items are added or removed. The service when you have questions or concerns with the bill is awful. The owner becomes beligerent and condescending. I can't in good conscience recommend this place seeing how it was such a vastly different experience from the first visit to the second.

So happy to have found this hidden gem! Views are beautiful. Was immediately greeted upon arrival. The service was spot on. The food was delicious. Steak tacos were amazing! Wish the portions were bigger though. Drinks were refreshing. Everything tasted fresh. We will definitely be returning!

I saw a few posts on FB and realized I'd never heard of this place. Followed instructions and got reservations at 7pm. It's buried down in the Dena but in a gorgeous marina. West facing so we got great sunset views. It was raining so we couldn't eat outside but looks like a nice spot. Drinks: margarita and goose island ipa (bottled)Solid margarita. Very refreshing. Would have loved a salt rim. Good island is good stuff. Apps: Korean spiced cauliflower. Mmmm so good. Just a kick of spice. Very tasty. Mains: crab cake and the pork tacos. Hubby loved the tacos and the chefs own hot sauce but you only get three small ones. Y'all. I got a crab cake. You know I don't usually go for that. It was so good. Lots of lump crab. The corn and pablano salsa was delish. And the roasted potatoes and asparagus were very tasty. Not heavy at all. The anarchistic child got the burger. It had some kind of sauce on it. Probably a good one but our kid is our kid so....Dessert: ok we got both of them. The spiced brownie and the island bread pudding. The hubby actually moaned outloud over the bread pudding. You all know he's not a dessert guy. I do love bread pudding so went with the brownie. Def spiced but with the cream and fruit, perfectly balanced. Great service from Kendal. Very impressed. My only advice would be to specify on the kids menu for our overly picky eaters and (sadly) add something a hair blander. It's heresy, I know.

Had the steak tacos. Wife had the shrimp tacos. We shared the Korean cauliflower. Food was very good but they need fries or onion rings as a side. I know, typical but would like to see what they can do with that. Service is outstanding our young lady was a delight and helpful. The ambiance is where they shone. The place is at a marina off the beaten path and well worth the hunt. Definitely try this place!

A hidden gem in Pasadena! Everything here is outstanding- the food, the service and the breathtaking sunset whether you're dining in or out! Nature provides a beautiful backdrop to your delicious meal w a view over the water and quiet surroundings! Chef Jake does a fabulous job with meal presentation and young Abbey is learning the trade and is such a sweet young "chef in training" that brings you your dessert and chats a bit. We always look forward to seeing her!

What a wonderful meal! The patio has a perfect sunset view of the marina and the crab cakes were excellent. The staff are all friendly and attentive. Wish I was local so I could frequent this place weekly during the summer.

Food was tailored to available farm and seafood fresh ingredients. Atmosphere is welcoming and relaxing. Bright with natural floral arrangements. Cocktails were very well crafted. Service was team oriented, professional, yet personal and family friendly & friends ambiance.

Our favorite weekend spot, the hosts are warm and welcoming. As for the food ,amazing, the best available in the Pasadena/ Severna Park area. Chef's menu is small,but varied, with options for everyone. His sauces are like velvet, beautifully complimenting each dish. I'm a seafood lover and my husband is a carnivore... we are always able to find a perfect dish. Between us this weekend. I enjoyed the beautifully crispy skinned branzino, over poblano cream, complemented by elote. My husband chose a beautifully crafted duck. L

While searching for the best place to eat on the water, Sam & Maggie's popped up as a suggestion. I'm do glad it did. Our dinner was amazing, from appetizers to dessert. My husband loved the smoked fish dip, and the Korean Cauliflower had just the right amount of spice. After hearing the backstory of the Surf & Turf Burger from Chef Jake when he stopped by our table, we decided to give it a try. It did not disappoint! Finished our meal with the Spiced Brownie. We dined outside on the patio and the view of the sunset was breathtaking. We were told the menu changes weekly, so we know we will definitely be back to try another one of their delicious offerings!

Our four generation group of 10, went to this restaurant to celebrate the retirement of one.All felt that this was an exceptional meal.The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. A table side visit by the chef was very pleasant.We wish that we had discovered this restaurant sooner and will certainly return.
