    Have been to Donnelly’s several times, but always in warm weather. Decided to go with a couple of friends. The winter view was just as beautiful! Staff couldn’t have been nicer and it wasn’t as crowded as it can get in summer, for sure. Highly recommend for a casual, but very nice, dinner, in a lovely waterside setting.

    We were so pleased with Donnelly’s Dockside. The staff were very professional and gave us great suggestions for food selections. The view is wonderful even for the winter time. The food was outstanding, especially the squash soup with crab. Everything we tried was excellent. It was so good we returned for another visit later in the week.

    The ac had not been working and was just coming back on, so it was a bit warm when we got there. Not their fault, but no one said anything until we mentioned how warm it was
