The Dock at Marker 12

Come for the views, boat tie ups, drinks and friendly service. Food, I'd skip. It's not bad, there are just better choices.

Not sure what all the negative reviews are about. People are too harsh! I'm sure it gets busy in the summer and it's hard to find good help. But it's important to support local businesses in Rockport . This is a great little place with an amazing beachy atmosphere. I shared the fried shrimp and fish plate and it was great. The drinks are great as well. Full bar!

Out of most things on the menu. Fish overcooked and way too salty. Hamburger was bad, tasted like old bay seasoning and fish. Fries were cold. We will not be back.

My new fave! I've visited this place on several occasions and it never disappoints. Paige is usually our server and she's fantastic. Some of the same specialty drinks as Whiskey Palm, which is also amazing, Highly recommend both places when in Rockport. The menu is limited and hours can vary, so double check before you head over. It's worth it for the views and the food. I recommend the shrimp (some of the best tasting in the area), the fresh oysters (when in season), the large calamari, the wedge salad and the key lime pie. All delicious! And the views are the best in the area. We once watched dolphins playing. Now I'm dreaming about those views, fresh air blowing and sitting in the swings with a cool drink in my hand listening to the music...When family visits, bring them here. They are always on point.

My boyfriend and I went to eat here and ZERO complaints what so ever. The staff was phenomenal!! Everyone was so friendly and don't get me started with the food .. we got the surf and Turf and everything was so good. The asparagus was on steroids but still so delicious. Nick the manager was amazing kept checking on us and made us feel very welcomed. 10/10 recommend if you're visiting. The view is a plus and you can also fish we caught non stop.

The setting is spectacular. Sitting outside enjoying a beverage and some live music. Sadly, we never received the food we ordered. After 90 minutes waiting for the fried shrimp special, we asked for our check and went to Crab In for so amazing shrimp!!!!

This place knocks the socks off so many other seafood restaurants. Our waitress Paige was spot on. The party I was with never had to ask for a thing, Paige was all over it. The fish and shrimp was amazing. I will definitely be coming back.

Fried fish and shrimp lightly breaded. Food was good. Parking lot is junky but restaurant/bar is very nice.

Nice establishment with a nice view. Mediocre food at a steep price and slow/uninformed servers. Fried calamari was under cooked. Entrees took over 45 minutes (burger, fried fish plate, and fish tacos) Uninformed waitresses on the bar menu. I watched the bartender eat food at the bar and then make drinks and then go back to eat. She may have washed her hands but I didn't see it. We was a "new" waitress who was so lost. She said it was her second week at this establishment. This is to no fault of her own, the establishment needs leadership and a manager. Owners and managers have a duty to train their employees well and watch the entire establishment to indicate what is working and what needs changes. I asked if the manager or owner was in the room and she said they were downstairs. Without changes, I don't see this establishment making it 2 more years. It's sad, it has potential.

Shrimp cooked to perfection. Fresh and the best I've had anywhere in the area. extremely clean.Service was a little slow, but the frozen margaritas were good, so who cares with such a beautiful view of the bay
