My first Prom date was a wonderful dinner at Johnny's Dock, the original restaurant that burned down in 1961. I have eaten countless meals at this legendary restaurant. Saturday evening at 5:00 I brought a good friend to share the restaurant after visiting the Tall Ships. When I asked for a window seat (half were not occupied) I got an argument that they were for reservations only. They did relent when they saw my dismay. I asked if I could be served my favorite french dip,,,No, Well, could I have my favorite open face crab sandwich? No .We only serve dinners from 1:00 on, there is no lunch menu. That meant most items averaged $23.00 in price. The fish chowder was too fishy to eat and was returned. My calamari sat too long under the heat lamp and was served with a crust on top of the sauce and the breading tasking like salt. Again, I couldn't eat it. My friend didn't say anything until the meal was over but complained that her shrimp and fries were way overpriced for what she got. Last
