King Tide Fish & Shell

Great service in the bar and in restaurant. Food recommendations were delicious. They made our 10 year anniversary dinner very special.

Delicious food, outstanding service, quiet enough to have a conversation.

Went for Saturday Brunch. There was no indication we would be eating in the bar when I made the reservation on Open Table or on the restaurants website. Not a lot of crab in my eggs. Probably will not return for brunch.

Ended up & Kind Tide while attending a business conference at a nearby hotel. The meal was very good- the Salmon la plancha. It was cooked perfectly, was fresh and had an excellent flavor served with the verde option. I’d recommend it. The pricing was a bit high - probably due to its location in a hotel. All in all it was a good option near the riverfront.

Food was great, service is amazing.
Desert was a bit disappointing, maybe was better to have ice cream outside.

One of the best date nights we've had in so long! From the ambiance, to the service and the food- it was truly unbeatable. We purposely over ordered so that we'd have leftovers to eat later on! Cannot wait to come back for more, highly highly recommend!

We had very few expectations going in and thought that being a hotel restaurant it might not be that good. However we were amazed at the service and the quality of the food. The hamachi tostadas were out of this world. We all agreed that the beet salad was the best we’ve ever had. The monkfish osso Bucco was delicious.

The restaurant is beautiful with views of the Willamette River and the boardwalk. The bar was plush and comfortable with a cozy fire on a cool fall evening. We sampled the drink menu with oysters all around. Everything was delicious and our evening was made even better thanks to our very attentive waitress. Thank you!

Parts of meal were excellent, my wife,s and my Freud’s pasta dish. My fish was dry and over cooked. Cheese cake was excellent the double choc. Cake not good. Service was OK, they corrected mistakes.

The oysters was amazing

I ordered a36$ dollar steak it wasn’t even seasoned and my wife ordered the halibut it was flavorless! The service was good and the wine was good but the food not so good!

This is a wonderful restaurant on the waterfront. The chefs served up an exceptional gourmet dinner. Our complements. I do have to wince just a bit on the bartender's idea of 5 oz and mine. Seemed a bit on the less than 5 oz. For the price, anyway. But yes, I highly recommend this place.

Food and atmosphere was awesome, roasted beet appetizer was delish! Server was attentive, a bit on the pricier side to what we usually spend, however it was worth it as a treat while travelling from out of town.

I could not give this restaurant 5 stars simply because the service was so poor. The Food was excellent, and being outside on such a beautiful evening was great. We ordered 3 beverages, of which only one arrived after a very long wait and had to remind the server of our missing beverages as our dinner arrived. We ordered the special fish of the day which was excellent while our friend has the halibut. Both dishes were wonderful. It seems that they were poorly staffed with waiters in bar and the restaurant. It seems that the bar tab should also be combined with the dinner of which they could not do. Food great, wait staff were friendly but service needs some help.

King Tide was a short walk from our nearby hotel so the location was convenient. We greatly enjoyed our dining experience and the fish selection we made was excellent. We would definitely consider returning next year when my wife and I visit the Portland area.

My husbands birthday. They knew it and didn’t offer a desert or anything. The ambiance is awful. It lacks style top to bottom. Kinda like a Holiday Inn. Food was ok. Service was ok too. Won’t go back or suggest this place to anyone.

This is a restaurant in the Kimpton Hotel which is a wonderful spot to stay. The restaurant is nice and the bar area next to the restaurant is big and very nice. Also sitting outside for dinner is a big plus as it overlooks the river. Food was good. If you're staying at the hotel certainly would recommend eating there.

Amazing view by the river.

It took a little while for food to arrive. At times our waiter was switched out with anotherso it became a little confusing. Overall everyone was pleasant and the food was delicious.

The restaurant has a lovely outdoor seating area in the lounge, with a nice view of the ducks and the river below. A group of us (6) wanted to enjoy this area along with the happy hour specials, however rather than help us collect some chairs the waitress pushed us to proceed to the dining room, saying it also had a nice outdoor patio, but that we would have to forgo the HH specials. Well the dining patio turned out to be very noisy, with a lot of traffic noise from the bridge and a poor view of the river through all the trees. In addition, we were forced to pay full price for all our food, which in this restaurant is no small thing. Food was delicious, but small servings for the prices they charge; when they recommend sharing a $140 sea bass among four people, you would think the sides would serve more than two. All in all a lot of money for food that was not particularly special and bar servers not interested in pleasing customers. Will try somewhere else next time.

Wonderful experience for our last night in Portland! Great service from Jacob and excellent food. Four of us shared mussels, black cod, fish and chips and roasted beets...everything was delicious! Really enjoyed our meal and price was reasonable. Highly recommend!

We opted to eat outside so it was nosier. Halibut and oldster tortellini were outstanding. Very extensive wine list although no Moscato by the glass. Dress code was supposed to be upscale however there were a lot of patrons dressed in t shirts and shorts.

Excellent service delicious meal and drinks. Menu was a little limited

The service was fine. I had the scallops, they were good, not gritty. My husband had the halibut, it was overcooked. Our two companions had the salmon and lobster ravioli. There were no actual lobster pieces, it was a lobster mash in the ravioli. Considering underwhelming preparation and presentation, the menu is probably $4-$5 overpriced.

King Tide has great food in a beautiful setting, but their clam chowder is amazing! Lots of goodies in it (bacon, purple potato, onions, etc.), along with fat juicy clams...and the presentation is first-class.

When I made a reservation they asked me what is the occasion. I told them for my wife birthday. But at the end of the meal I had to tell the waiter. It was celebrated my wife birthday tonight. Even though the waiter did nothing for us. That was the downside from the service. Therefore I would not recommend people are going there to celebrate their birthday.

Great bday dinner and service. Back soon! Thank you

Excellent ...staff went the extra mile. Great food. Very helpful when it came to parking both our cars an when we want to go for a walk along water front ...we asked if they would put our leftovers in the fridge while we were walking ... waiter said sure. Excellent we will be back for sure.

It was a good quaint place to meet with a customer over a great meal.

Amazing! Try the clam chowder. Chilqueles rojo was delicious. Fresh pressed juices a must too.

The food was amazing! Drinks we’re amazing as well. Excellent service! Highly recommend!

Outstanding! beautiful and delicious food. Attentive, thoughtful service.
Clam chowder is a must, with smoked purple potatoes, and finished table side. The roasted beets- honestly, a perspective changing dish. Life altering sounds extreme, but it was that amazing. And please finish your meal with the "Not your avocado toast". You will not be sorry. Tasty food, great service, artful presentation...I simply can't wait to eat at King Tide again.

I am pleased to say, after two visits I really liked King Tide F clean, flavorful, excellent bread and not too large of a slice. I've had this twice now and the second time was better so whatever you did to improve it was spot on. We both had fish over cauliflower rice which was great, enjoyed the salsa verde and the fish was cooked perfectly for each of us however, we both noted the whole almonds mixed into the cauliflower rice were A) a bit odd and B) definitely too many of them. It was almost odd that every bite had a gigantic whole almond in it. Perhaps sliced or slivered would provide that crunch but not be so awkward? Anyhow, flavor was spot on. Loved dining al fresco and will definitely return!

Everything was tasty and out server was friendly and attentive

Our friends loved eggy aspect of their meal, but especially the fine service and the tomato/cheese plate, which was like Italy itself. Would come again...absolutely!

Halibut cooked perfectly and the dessert play on avocado toast was excellent!

Way overpriced for the food. Deck was nice, but everything was over priced..,..frys were greasy, lobster roll was petite with no side, only picked carrots. Won’t be back.

Don’t bother

Sat outside by the water. Not fancy seating. Beet salad was fantastic! Lobster raviollis were yummi but the sauce was outstanding. Mushroom appetizer was fantastic. Fish and chips were tasty. Highly recommend!

The location is great, the valet parking free for two hours is super, depending upon your seating the view from the outside balcony is great but the menu is very limited for a seafood restaurant exclusive of the raw bar. We were interested in fish and were told that the whole fish, the seasonal catch (I've forgotten the type) was too large for two people so we both selected halibut from the choices that included black cod and king salmon. We shared a beet salad which was adequate for two and good. We each chose the halibut and chose two different of the three possible sauces - salsa verde and veracruz salsa. The halibut was the thickest we've had about two inches and cut in a slightly larger square. It was served on a square of cauliflower -almond rice with the sauce surrounding it. Nicely presented. Good portion of fish. We liked both of the sauces, found cauliflower-almond rice unusual and dry but okay with some of the sauce. The halibut looked wonderful but was overcooked. Not badly enough to return but enough to discourage us from returning.
