   BTD needs to figure out a way to seat larger groups away from regular diners. We in the "back" area which has a low ceiling. There was a birthday party of approx 16 people right next to us. They were VERY nice, but also VERY loud. We don't blame them, after all, they were celebrating! We were just trying to have a quiet late lunch. We could not carry on a conversation.

   I have wanted to go to Brunch at By the Docks for quite a while, and today was the day. Overall, I was pleased with the food selections although at our 10 AM arrival time the scrambled eggs weren't terribly warm. I saw the server finally get some lids to put over the trays of food and that should have helped the eggs get warmer for others. I wished for toast or English muffins or regular muffins to eat with my bacon and eggs in addition to the very large biscuits available for the chipped beef gravy and the sausage gravy. What happened to the eggs benedict? Are you saving money somehow by removing most of the white so there was really only a small "frame" around the yolk? We both were amused by that feature. Our bill came to $93 which included the 18% gratuity. Abner was our waiter and he was personable and on-the-ball. I hope he was the one to get the whole 18% . He greeted us and brought coffee (which was an extra charge), explained the omelet process. checked on us several times and brought the bill when requested. My husband appreciated that the bill specifically said "Additional tip" beyond the automatic gratuity so that he didn't make the mistake of tipping beyond the automtatic 18% which he has done by mistake in the past at other restaurants.

    We love By the Docks. This trip was not disappointing. We brought my mother here for first time and she loved it. The food was awesome and, as always, the portions were generous. Our service was superb.
