    We had reservations at 6 o'clock. Had instructions not to be more than 10 minutes late or could lose Our seat but however had to wait for 20 minutes to be seated. Our server was terrible. Had to ask for her twice. My husband ordered a drink that he has been ordering for 30 years came back wrong twice. Then the manager came over then explained to us how to order a drink there that nowadays things are made differently. In my opinion if you change a drink then you change the name as well. The ahe was Overcooked. The enchiladas Del Mar was dry. By the time she checked on us we were done eating.

    We’ve always had great service at high tides, but for the last three weekends of dining there only has the service wad under par and the kitchen is very slow We ran into Alaskan King crab, legs, and lobster that should not have been served. Even the manager stated they’ve been having trouble with with their lobster king crab. But last night again we experienced an inefficient server we had a 6:15 reservation. We didn’t get out till 815. First time ever I did not properly tip the waitress. Need to say our experience was below par. Don’t know if we’ll go back. We know the owner. We love her, but it will be awhile before we return.

    We absolutely love High Tide and enjoy the location on Val Vista the best. We have been here several times, typically on our Anniversary. We were extremely disappointed that the King Crab legs had been removed from the menu; that's one of the reasons we like coming here, but we understand the reason for removal. Service was slow; and not because they were "busy"..in our opinion. Waitress was not necessarily attentive even though she knew it was our anniversary. Blue Point Oysters were awesome! Shrimp cocktail was good; very large, more like prawns! My husband had the Chilean Sea Bass and loved it. Great flavor and good sized serving. The food here is always on point. Delicious and tasty Key Lime pie for dessert!
