OUR HISTORY

In 1897, Harry "call me Dock" Dougherty believed there was a great opportunity in Atlantic City to open a restaurant that would serve the finest seafood available in a clean, comfortable and friendly atmosphere. And so he opened Dock's Oyster House, with 60 seats, no liquor license and very high standards.

Dock's menu features a wide variety of the highest quality, freshest fish and shellfish expertly prepared to showcase the seafood's natural flavors. The seafood-centric menu is rounded out with house made soups, sides and salads featuring local produce, and meats that will rival any steakhouse.
