Dockside Bistro and Wine Bar made its debut on May 12th, 2007. Open 7 days a week for lunch, appetizers and dinner, Dockside Bistro focuses on pairings of fine wine and fine food in an intimate and warm waterfront setting.Owner Laurie Nguyen and Executive Chef Cedar Martin utilize the freshest local ingredients to create sensational cuisine with a Northwest flair. Seafood is wild caught from sustainable fisheries or from local shellfish producers. With frequent lunch and dinner specials and promotional events such as $1.00 Cork Night, Half Price Appetizers, Complementary Cheese Plates, and Half Price Glass Pours (please see our Events Page under 'Ongoing'), plus weekly live jazz, Dockside strives to provide an informal and quality dining experience whether you are dropping by for appetizers and a glass of wine or for a full lunch or dinner.

Have a passion for wine? Dockside offers over 60 wines and champagnes for your enjoyment and 20 by the pour. In addition to the "noble grapes" we take special pride in presenting Washington grown Rhone Valley varietals. We also enjoy hosting wines of lesser known varietals such as Auxerrois (France), Fiano (Italy), Falanghina (Italy), Tempranillo (Spain), Mencia (Spain), Nebbiolo (Italy), and Zweigelt (Austria).

Like a little music with your food and wine? We do too! Check out our Events Page to see upcoming jazz events as part of our on-going Sunday evening Jazz Artist Series. Also please check our Events Page for our scheduled wine-maker dinner with Don and Vicki Corson of Camaraderi Cellars on 4/24/08.

Dockside is also available for parties to celebrate those special corporate or personal events in your life. Need catering for a meeting? Please check our catering menu for our current offerings.

Planning a party? Dockside will meet your food and wine needs. Looking for an off-list wine, sparkling wine or champagne? Just let us know in advance and we will endeavor to meet your needs for that in-house special event or your catered party.

As a result of cultivating relationships with local musicians, in addition to food and wine Dockside is also pleased to offer music to complete your special event. We are proud to coordinate with local professional musicians and can offer solo harp, solo guitar or solo piano to jazz or swing duos, trios or quartets.
