The website stopped saying Opening Soon.

That is the whole announcement, and nobody made one. Two weeks ago the first thing on 2creeksdockside.com was the sentence We are pleased to introduce 2 Creeks Dockside, followed by Opening Soon with an exclamation mark on it. Tonight the top of that page reads Waterfront Dining at 2 Creeks Dockside, and under it, join us, from the tiki bar and patio to our indoor dining room. Nobody is introduced any more. You are invited.

The license on 69 Lewis Boulevard was issued Sept. 3, which is forty-nine days ago, and the same site carries a second address, the Murabella room at 74 Capulet Drive, which this paper wrote about in September and which at least one diner on the water this week had eaten at first. Forty-nine days.

The prices moved, and most of them moved up

A menu is the only thing a restaurant publishes that it has to mean, and the one at 69 Lewis Boulevard has been edited line by line in two weeks: dishes gone, dishes added, sections renamed, and a price against almost everything that used to carry none. Here is the same list, two weeks apart.

The ribeye was $34.95 and it is $36.95. The fish sandwich was $17.95 and it is $19. Rasta tacos were $16.95 and they are $18, the smash burger the same, the crab cake sandwich went from $17.95 to $18, and the jerk chicken sandwich went from $14.95 to $18. Gulf oysters were $9 the half dozen and $17 the dozen. They are $10 and $18. Sides were $4.50 across the board and they are $5, sweet fries went $5 to $7, and the kid’s menu moved from a $6.95-to-$7.95 band to a $7-to-$8 one.

Two things got cheaper. The rasta pasta came down from $19 to $15 and the fish platter from $18.95 to $17.95.

Grouper holds at $24.95. Redfish and the Maryland crab cakes hold at $19.95, the shrimp platter holds at $17.95 and the salmon BLT at $19.95, and a soft drink is still $3.25, which on a menu where almost nothing else stayed put is a set of decisions as deliberate as the ones that moved.

None of that is a scandal. All of it is a seven-week-old kitchen working out, in public, on a page anybody can open, what it actually costs to put a plate in front of somebody with a view behind them.

The blackboard filled in

On Oct. 8 the Blackboard Specials heading on that ordering page had nothing under it. An empty heading on a live menu is a kitchen that has not decided yet.

It carries twenty-three dishes now, which is the sound of a kitchen that has decided. Surf and turf at $45. Togarashi salmon $25, honey garlic salmon $26, a Sandbar burger at $19.95, a steak wedge salad at the same money, chicken parm your way at $24, fried green beans at $10, coconut shrimp at $12.95. There is a Brushatta Salmon on it at $23.95, which two weeks ago was a Bruschetta Salmon at $23.95, and I would put money on the fish being identical.

Three weeknights now have a price on them, which is the most useful thing on the whole page.

Tuesday is tacos at $5 each, five kinds, and one of them is carne asada and one of them is surf and turf. Wednesday is wings, six for $6 and twelve for $12. Thursday is shrimp, six for $6 and twelve for $12, and the same section offers an eight-ounce filet at $36, a ten-ounce strip at $32 and a fourteen-ounce ribeye at $36.

Thursday is tonight. Six shrimp, six dollars. The room opens at 11.

What the first diners wrote

Google has the place at 4.4 across 21 reviews, up from the 4.3 with no count at all that it carried two weeks ago. Five of them are served on the listing and they are the five newest, all inside the last week.

Catherine Mayberry got at what the room is selling. “We love an old Florida feel with upscale food and this place totally delivered,” she wrote. “Marina views and great quality food. We will be back!”

Matt Kukla ordered a big burger and his friend ordered the oysters, noticed the weekday specials and the weekend music, and compared the view to being at the Jaws ride at Universal. I have read a lot of these and that is a new one.

Susan Metcalf: “This has become our go to seafood restaurant. Unique dishes that are wonderful.”

Jade Hosch found the food great and the atmosphere casual and inviting, and then named the person who made the mojito, which is the detail that tells you somebody on that floor is doing the job properly.

And then the other kind. Kevin McNaught had eaten at the Murabella room and came to this one for the first time, had a drink and an app, and meant to stay for dinner. “The app (seared tuna tostadas) was absolutely inedible,” he wrote. “The tuna was an odd color, and extremely cold and chewy.”

That dish is still on the menu tonight at $13.95, spelled Seare Ahi Tuna Tostadas, and a room that has had four days to pull a plate somebody called inedible and has instead left it on the page at full price is either confident or busy, and both are possible in week seven.

The datil question is still open

Two datil items. Datil Blue Cheese Chips at $10, and the Datil Seafood Chowder at $7.95, which the menu describes as shrimp, fish, potato and datil pepper in a white sauce, and which is the one dish on this page that has to answer to the pepper itself.

Both out of stock. The chowder was out of stock on Oct. 8 as well, which is two weeks of a menu advertising the county’s own pepper and not selling it.

Seven items carry the out of stock tag now, down from eleven, counted off each menu. The page says it is not accepting online orders, so those tags are the restaurant’s own note to itself and not a promise about the kitchen at seven o’clock on a Thursday. Call first if the chowder is the reason you are driving.

What I’d order: twelve shrimp for $12, outside, before the light goes.
