Tides Waterfront Kitchen Reviews (136)
This place has stellar views anywhere you sit in the restaurant! Note - the place has been renamed - "The Lantern Room" Being plant based, my options were avocado toast for $22 or steel cut oatmeal for $13. I opted for the latter - large bowl with sides of golden raisins, steamed oat milk, candied hazelnuts & brown sugar. Good temperature on the oatmeal. Something in the mix had an odd flavor- perhaps the raisins or the nuts. Enough that it overshadowed the meal - edible but could've been better. Cappuccino with Captain Stoker represented was delightful with oat milk. Service was prompt, courteous and good, though it did take a few repeats of 'oat milk' to clarify my request leaving me doubtful that I'd get it. I did! Was seated straight away though the hostess had to post a makeshift sign stating she was away seating a guest. Return visit? Probably not for food, but grabbing a cocktail off the lobby? Definitely! ...especially if they have excellent musicians present. Huge potential for this rebranding - I hope they get it right!!
I enjoyed the food and service so much at Tides Waterfront Kitchen. The ambience was beautiful as well since the hotel and restaurant is directly on the beach. I wholeheartedly recommend! Great spot for a date night and the great thing is you can go to the restaurant and not be a guest of the hotel.
For our 43rd anniversary, we're bike riding the coastal trail, and decided to pedal on up the hill for a great breakfast! The hospitality of the host and server, fabulous Eggs Benedict, super bacon loaded omelet, and drum roll, please... fabulous view of the bay, all adds up to a rare treat at a bargain price and the perfect start to a wonderful day! Eat well. Be happy!
Wonderful romantic place with up-close spectacular views of the ocean. The staff were very friendly and the food was prepared with effort in presentation and fresh flavor. We loved the diced Ceviche with home made tasting corn chips and plenty of fish. If you are watching your weight but want something savory then go for the Seafood medley in the tomato based broth. Add some red pepper flakes and BAM! This restaurant is also great for large groups.
