OLD SAYBROOK, CT The owners of the former popular Dock & Dine restaurant have filed plans with the town hoping to construct a 300-seat outdoor restaurant called Smoke on the Water.
The former Dock & Dine restaurant was twice destroyed during Irene and Superstorm Sandy and now the owners want to set up seven trailers, which would hold two bars, and an area to allow for food preparation, WTNH News 8 reported. The cooking would take place on outdoor grills.
The application remains pending before the Zoning Commission and has generated significant opposition from residents who are concerned about the potential noise and qualify of life concerns.
