I ve been frequenting this restaurant in Baldwin Park since they opened several years ago. If it weren t for convenience, I d never step foot in here again. The food isn t that good, the service is bad and seemingly getting worse. With barely anyone in the restaurant and servers constantly just standing around doing nothing, it s just hard for me to deal with such poor service. Also, FRENCH s ketchup is terrible. Please bring Heinz back.

Sat at the bar, Wings and ribs were extremely dry (old?). Bartender was short with my date who was not sure of what to drink. . Had been to this location about a year ago and food was good. Quality has gone way down hill since then. Not sure if I will visit this location again

UNBELIEVABLY HORRIBLE SERVICE! This past Friday night my wife and I went here to have dinner and a couple of drinks. They told us it would be a 20-30 min wait even though it wasn t very busy. (Friday night and all) We ended up just sitting at the bar where a very very rude blonde girl served us. I substituted fries for mac and cheese in my meal because she said it was fine. My wife ordered a gyro and did not receive her tzatziki sauce, when she requested it the girl gave her the dirtiest look and brought it out rudely like her whole night was ruined because she had to go back and bring us what we ordered. Received my ribs and baked beans but never the mac & cheese. Never made a fuss about it because I could already tell the night wasn t going to get better. Just wanted to pay my bill and never come back, but when I requested my bill she attempted to charge me for the entire meal! I politely explained to her I shouldn t be charged for food I didn t receive. (Mac & cheese or fries that were never brought out) she said Theres nothing she can do about it because that s the price. To me it seemed as if she couldn t care any less. Of course I requested her manager. A dark haired girl about 5 foot 2in came out and treated myself and wife as if we were two homeless people asking for a free meal rather than to pay for the food we received . I told her all I wanted was to pay for the food I ate and not the food they were supposed to bring out but never did! It s common sense! After making it seem as if she was doing me a favor she said Im only taking $3 off. I couldn t believe the disrespect and horrible service. That location should have much better staff and consider how bad some of the current employees make them look. No one deserves that treatment.

I come over to Gators once or twice a week but this past Sunday I was told about one of the waitress that work there and the sad news was she had passed away on Friday of liver disease she was very nice and the sad thing is she was just 27 years old and when I saw one of managers I said to her I just heard about one of your waitresses that just passed away she looked at me and said excuse me I said about your waitress and then she kind of just Shrugged her shoulders and rolled her eyes and said oh yeah well at that point I realize this girl was nothing more than a name on a piece of paper that said on the top of it "Schedule" it was kind of sad that they just look at their employees like that . So next time you go into a restaurants pay little bit more attention to the young lady or man that come to your table to wait on you the sad thing is to management these people are nothing more then here's your t-shirt that your section keep it clean now go push our so-called award-winning wings and beans and make us money !

The food came out semi warm. The worst part was the fries (most of them) were UNCOOKED! sent them back TWICE! The place was SUPER SLOW, yet so was the service. My glass of tea went dry more than twice. Really not a great experience for my first (and probably last) visit.

Waited 15mins to ordered food. The waitress just keep walking by us I was about to walk out the place but my niece went back to the front to report why is the waitress taking so long. The service suck the place was not even crowded it must've been my skin color everybody else was white.

Gator's Dockside took the spot previously held by Paddy Murphy's, the Irish Pub. They redesigned the interior to be more open with a lot more seating and put in tons of TV's. Personally, although I tend not to favor large chains, I have to admit that this is a better use of the space. The atmosphere is typical Baldwin Park - mostly young-ish professionals. The beer selection is solid and the food is what you'd expect for a corporate sports bar - I particularly enjoyed the wings. It was pretty busy when I went and I had no big complaints about the service.

They run various specials throughout the week, which makes this a great place to catch a game without breaking the bank. Parking is street-side and may require a tiny bit of searching, but doesn't bother me. The location across from Lake Baldwin is awesome as always. Check it out!

Really good bafflo chicken tenders! I guess there wasn't a lot of people working tonight because service was slow, I saw my waitress only two times while I was there! Good thing I didn't need her, not! Good location and friendly staff when you get there attention.

The location is great and this place is dog-ville! The must be 8 outside tables with dogs as I open this eloquent review. We always love to bring our pooch with us for lunch or dinner and Gator's is very accommodating. The wings are a little pricey, but based on where it's at I can understand. The service is very good across the board and I've never felt a compunction to complain about the quality of the food. If you're feeling like straying from the typical fare try the lobster roll - it's actually quite good. We get our wings naked, grilled and re-tossed. And we go for the hot stuff - Yucatan. Yum

The restaurant is near lake Baldwin. The environment is welcoming and comfortable if you are a fan of sports, the services is positive and friendly.
The reason why I eat here is because I want to try gator meat, so I ordered Gator tail as appetizer which is good it taste like chicken, fried shrimp with sides of plantain and salad, and fish tacos... overall the food is great!

Their food is definitely NOT good! I ordered a Veggie Burger and it came undercooked twice!! I cannot remember ordering RAW Zucchini burger! However, our server was nice. She tried to help us, but I got really annoyed! Also the nachos that my bf ordered were not ok! He didn't even touch them but neither said anything! Whatever, parking is also a problem.. There is just street parking, no parking lot!! I personally do not recommend this place but if you go there, you'd better be careful about the food!
