Tiki Lee's Dock Bar

(May 2024) I ordered the following: Chicken Chesapeake: 7/10 flavorful but a little too salty Honey old bay wings: 10/10 must tryCustomer service was very good. The view was nice. Nice breeze while enjoying meal.

Perfect Day at Tiki Lee'sThe view at Tiki Lee's is always stunning, and the food doesn't disappoint. Although the service was very friendly, it could use a bit of improvement. Our waitress was a bit forgetful; we had to keep asking for extra plates, which never arrived, so we ended up improvising by eating off napkins when sharing with friends at our table. There were also a few instances where the sides to our meals were forgotten. In all fairness, it was a busy Sunday, so it's understandable. Despite these hiccups, we had an enjoyable time overall. We also ordered honey old bay wings and they were amazing. (Not pictured here) but pls trust! The great drinks were also a plus.

I'm giving this place three stars only because there aren't that many menu options and they do not have crabs. Nonetheless, shout out to my waiter, Chris, that guy was amazing. The location of the restaurant, ambience, and energy of the staff is what makes Tiki Lee's amazing. Everyone is so professional and happy. All right let's dig into the food.I was not a fan of the crab dip. I feel like the crab dip was missing something and it was entirely too creamy. I also did not like the bread that was served with the crab dip. The pizza was delicious. I am a huge fan of brick oven style pizza. The children's mac & cheese was surprisingly tasty. The shrimp and crab quesadilla was seasoned to perfection. Usually, I gravitate towards chicken quesadillas only but the shrimp and crab quesadilla completely shocked my taste buds. Now on to the star of the show. The crabcake sandwich is what you need to order. I was extremely lucky because they were running a special today for $12. The crab king was needy and did not have filler. It was a little on the dry side so I had to jazz it up with some tartar sauce.These guys have an extensive drink menu. I myself had the rum punch and I am a huge fan. I will make that 2 Hour drive just to get a refill of the rum punch which they let you take your bucket home. The piña colada was extremely tasty and the blueberry lemon drop was a great touch. Try this place out and let me know what you think. As always #EatGoodAndBeHappy

The nachos were great as wellAs the trash cans, i had to send my crab cake sandwich back twice and was still not prepared correctly i have a tomato allergy and was told if i would've said that then they would've made sure no tomato was on the sandwich , i was asked if i wanted to get a side of mayo and cocktail Sauce to take home because the sandwich wouldn't be taken off the bill, i didn't ask for it to be. The souvenir cups are simply plastic cups for $17, don't think i would be back

I decided to visit Tiki Lee's yesterday for a boating event that was being held there. This was not my first time there and I quickly remembered their limited menu. I ended up only ordering a drink because nothing on the menu spoke to me. I was about to order the fish and chips but quickly realized it was a sandwich. I'm guessing sandwiches go with their beach theme but I didn't want to get my hands dirty. My homegirl ordered their Lee's Seafood Club and found it flavorless which helped me decide to wait until later to eat. I'm not a fan of pay as you go with automatic gratuity either. They also charged her a processing fee although she paid with cash . . . . We couldn't figure out how they applied the 18% gratuity either. I requested a prayer receipt but never received one. It is a nice location on the river and a lot of people were there taking advantage of their dock with their jet skis or boats and also the pool. Which was a cute nice addition but very crowded.

This place was a vibe. A great hangout spot with live music on the water. The servers were very nice and you could tell even while crowded, it was still spacious.

Chill vibes. Good scenery. Met up with a group of friends on a Saturday afternoon about a month ago. There's a $5 cover - cash only! I rarely carry cash but just happened to have some that day. They have ATMs on site.Parking is tight but not impossible. There's an overflow parking lot!Drinks are decent. Service was ok. I ordered fries and it took forever to get them. They include automatic gratuity on everything!I would possibly go back, but not in a hurry!

This is a pretty cool spot I love scenery and being able to hang this close to the water. The music is good and the food was ok. I got the shrimp salad sandwich which definitely wasn't what I expected but it was still tasty. The Maryland crab dip stole the show definitely a reason to return. I definitely see why they automatically include a gratuity though. The service definitely was lacking we had to go to the bar to get refills, ask for silverware, and awkwardly stare down the server to get her attention when we were ready to go. So I'm pretty sure without the automatic gratuity there's not much tipping going on unless you sit at the actual bar, seems to be the only way to get attention.

Really dope spot to chill solo, date, or casual link up. They have a live band and I believe a DJ on certain days. The view is amazing right off the dock where boaters or people with aquatic vehicles can pull up and catch a vibe or vice versa. The space is huge and able to meet most party sizes or events. With that said we move on to the service. I went on a Sunday for a casual meet up and the place was fairly crowded. The wait staff struggled to keep up with the drink and food orders. There were constant reminders to the point of cancelling orders. You can tell they were overwhelmed with the genuineness of their apology and mention of being backed up. They honestly didn't know what to do. I don't blame them as this goes to managment. Next up is the food. Rather than wait on the staff I went to the bar/restaurant for faster service. The food options are your typical bar fly menu (tacos/burgers/ etc). I don't know what it is with majority of waterfront establishments thinking they know Caribbean taste. Yet, I took the gamble on their jerk chicken quesadillas. I lost that bet. The presentation was underwhelming and the taste was disappointing. It was cold , overly cooked and hard which gave it a cardboard taste and not a single hint of jerk flavor was present. Even accompanied with the salsa and sour cream couldn't save this drowning meal. I did enjoy the frozen virgin Daiquiri.Taking the food, service, and ambiance into consideration I would visit again. However, it would need to be a very special event.

TLDR: Picturesque waterfront outdoor dining bar/restaurant. Come for the massive crab pretzel and 32oz crushes. Vibe: 4/5. Situated right on the Back River, Tiki Lees is a waterfront dock bar/restaurant that becomes the number one summer destination for both boaters and land dwellers. The complex is sprawling, complete with ample free parking and boat slips. Inside the predominantly outdoor restaurant, you will immediately take notice of the tropical theme that has been painstakingly curated. From the annually planted Florida palm trees to the man made white sand beach the establishment rests upon, Tiki Lees makes you sometimes forget that you're in Sparrows Point Maryland. Seating is predominantly covered picnic tables, which can hold around 4-6 adults comfortablely. They also have several walk up bars throughout the complex if you prefer roaming the grounds with a drink. For the boaters, they have a "VIP boaters only" Pool deck complete with private bar, restrooms and a storage container above ground pool. Unfortunately this used to be open to the general public, but after some problems with fights breaking out, they have limited it to locals who own boats. This is a shame, because I reserved a cabana style table on the pool deck a few years ago for a bachelor party and we had a blast! Service: 4/5. From the several times I have visited Tiki Lee's, the staff has been accommodating. As mentioned above, I reserved a cabana for a bachelor party a few years ago at Tiki. The day of the reservation, there was a miscommunication with our table, but Tiki's event coordinator was quick to amend the situation. My experience with the wait staff has only been nothing but positive. Food and drinks always come out correct and punctually. Food/Drink: 4/5. Tiki offers a wide variety of Maryland themed bar food and drinks which compliment the restaurant to a tee. Items such as their jerk chicken (highly recommend on nachos) and colossal crab pretzel that is literally the size of a car hubcap are a must for a group. Other offerings such as their sandwiches and crab cakes are great choices for 1-2 person dining. On the beverage spectrum, Tiki has similar drink offerings to that of Ocean City bars ie. Seacrets. You have your massive 33oz crush assortment as well as alcoholic slushie drinks, pain in the asses, dirty bananas, etc. Again, these choices fit the atmosphere wonderfully and are well priced all things considered. Overall, Tiki Lees just nails that Maryland beach bar vibe and is the perfect local "tropical"escape from Baltimore this side of the Bay bridge.
