Dock's Oyster House
Dock's Oyster House Review
Owned and operated by the Dougherty family since 1897, the city's oldest restaurant serves seafood in a setting of wood and stained glass engraved with nautical scenes. Sample from the raw bar, try the flounder stuffed with crabmeat, or test your mettle against a hulking steamed lobster (they sell them up to 6 ½ lbs). The wine list is expansive and reasonably priced. A must for anyone in search of a taste of old Atlantic City.
