I was very impressed with High Tide. Had the pleasure of eating here on a Saturday for lunch. Place wasn't crowded but still had plenty of employees busy at work. We ordered few appetizers including the crab cakes, high tide combo and calamari. I have to say I didn't know we could get that fresh seafood here in AZ. The crab cake was loaded with crab chunks and it was seasoned perfectly. The mussels and clams were so juicy and plump, I almost though we were near a beach somewhere. The calamari had no resemblance of anything fried. It was perfect texture and taste; it came with two different dipping sauces. The lunch entrees were equally delicious. We ordered gumbo with oysters, Cioppino, and fish and chips. Everything was so flavorful without being greasy or salty. Just loved every dish served here. The staff was friendly and service was prompt. Perfect atmosphere to take your family, friends, coworkers, and visitors alike. Enjoy! read more

Excellent service, beautiful atmosphere & wonderful food. Portions are large. Nice place for a special occasion.

We've been coming here for several years and and the food and staff have always been great. Staff has always been friendly and helpful with the menu. The wife and I have had several of the apps. The ceviche is huge and could almost be a meal in itself. The calamari with remind you of chicken fries but they are tender and meaty and always cooked perfectly. The mussels/clams is the beer broth are fantastic. The broth is delicious and the warm bread they give you is perfect for dipping into it with. The lobster bisque is one of the best I've ever had. Rich and hearty. If you want make this your meal go with a bowl otherwise get the cup. My one complaint is the changed up the design on the cup and it's more difficult to lick it clean. But the bread they give you will help you mop up every last bit. My favorite go to dishes are the Tide Roast or the Gumbo. Both are so tasty I hate to pass them up whenever I'm here. Ask for their hot sauce to put in. One of the best in town. Always look forward to going to High Tide. One of the few great seafood places in the valley. read more

Food is not good everything "creamy" taste like powder cheese Not worth the price but the atmosphere is ok. read more

Came here for dinner and it wasn't too busy and the wait wasn't at all too long so that was a good thing. One of our waitresses seemed to not want to be at work though and left a bad impression when she made a mistake on our order and back with attitude telling us we ordered 3 of the same dish and not 2 of them. Food: Fried oysters my favorite! Would probably just order only this next time lol The fish and chips were okay nothing special Gumbo was not what I remember gumbo to be, the rice was a bit hard, the okra was overpowering and seemed to take up half the dish. Beer steamed clams: you could definitely taste the beer stew read more

Food was only ok. Whole Lobster $100 was under cooked mushy. Shrimp cocktail still had entrails in them. Lobster Mac n cheese had minuscule lobster bits no real pieces. After a bill over $350 we won't be back considering the lack of real quality. Very disappointed. read more

We always look forward to dining at High Tide. We love the fresh oyster and the seafood enchiladas are INCREDIBLE!! Haven't had a bad meal yet. From cocktail and appetizers, to a full course dinner....YUM! I've also been told by many that don't care for seafood, that the fried chicken, the burger and the short-ribs are delish! read more

A very expensive dinner for the amount of food received (over $200.00). The 1/2 lobster we received was very bad - the tail meat was the texture of runny mashed potatoes! This is because the lobster was either dead before cooking or from freezing, thawing, then refreezing again. The manager changed it out and we received a small halved lobster tail in exchange - no claw or legs. We had the Seafood Pan Roast that states, serves 2. If serving for two, they shouldn't serve odd number of pieces, 3 crab legs, 3 scallops, 5 shrimp, 7 asparagus. Our waitress was extremely pleasant and she made the night enjoyable. read more

This is our second visit to High Tide, and I did not think the experience could get any better than the first, but we were pleasantly surprised. All of the food was outstanding! Our server, Heidi, was amazing as well. This is now one of our top restaurants to visit. I have let all of our family and friends know. We love this restaurant! read more

Not worth the time or money. Way too pricey for the food that they have. You're better off going to Pappadeaux's, or some other seafood place, at least you know you'll get better tasting food. read more

We enjoy going to High Tide. The one at Steel Yard is our go to. We love the calimari appetizer!

Come here about twice a year. The service is always good. However we had the king crab legs and was a disappointed. Usually high end restaurants crack them open and give you warm butter. However, here they put a cut in them and you have to pry them open. The ceramic stereo they bring out to warm the butter is too heavy and the tiny candle is not enough to warm the butter. Cold butter with 100$ a pound crab legs doesn't cut it. If you come here often the menu never changes which some people love, but it would be nice to have a surprise special now and then. The prices are a little out of line for the ok quality. read more

Was here with a group celebrating a birthday. Had lobster mac and cheese. Very rich and creamy with chunks of lobster. It is delicious!!!! Listed as an appetizer but it made 3 meals!!! Waiter gave us excellent service. Will definitely return. read more

Outstanding experience. Love these types of finds! Had been wanting to try and finally came in for my Birthday Dinner. Didn't disappoint. Our server was Ari. She was fantastic. Brought us out three samples of sauce from their most popular seafood dishes. Tomato Cream, Gumbo and Saffron Cream. All three were delicious. I had the steak with a lobster tail. It was good, but would have probably preferred what the others ordered. My husband had the spicy seafood pasta and really thought it was perfection. My son(s) had the scallops which were cooked to perfection. Like butter & so divine. And the Tide Roast -extremely amazing. The tastiest dish of the evening was the steamed black mussels in a beautiful broth. Our daughter ordered the appetizer as her meal. It's a healthy serving! Portions are pleasing for the price. Side note: They get FRESH seafood in daily from all over the country. Market prices may vary on some dishes. Gorgeous presentation of seafood displayed on ice near the bar. The head chef here has great history in his culinary background and takes pride in his work. Read about him and appreciate his respect for seafood & experience his quality for taste. High Tide specializes in a unique steam kettle/ steam pot cooking. Highly recommend their " Specialty House Steam Pot Meals". Atmosphere and staff professional. We had a great time -WHAT A GREAT PLACE! read more

Attentive servers and attractive space, and the FRESH seafood and fish is good. Salad was excellent. Anything stewed or in a sauce? Meh. Beware -- and maybe avoid. We ordered a mixed seafood dish from the hotpot menu and it was a thick, gooey pink sauce with little taste, mostly bland and slightly sweet, with a few plump shrimp. Scoop of white rice in the center was no help. read more

Well I am left speechless! From food to service this place is incredible! My husband and I are born and raised blocks from a beach on the west coast and we never thought we would find seafood like this in Arizona of all places. It was almost a joke between us about eating seafood now that we live in AZ. I stand corrected 100%. This place is a MUST! Pricey not cheap but that's what you want when you have seafood! So worth it. read more

The food was good, albeit salty so my father in law couldn't eat it. Service wasn't great, plates weren't cleared, but the pregnant waitress (didn't catch her name) was extraordinarily rude. When we came to pay the check, the card was declined (we live overseas and need to insert the card into the machine). When told the card was declined, my husband asked to come up to the front desk to try again, but before that, the waitress paused before saying and I quote: "If you think your presence will help". When he went up to the desk to try the card again, the waitress said that they bypass the PIN element - which caused the card to be declined in the first instance. There really was no need for the long pause and strange response when dealing with a declined card - that was the fault of the restaurant in originally bypassing the payment procedure. Such odd customer service, together with overly salted food. It's not our first choice in going back. read more

Hit or miss with this place. Food is always good, but the staff is not. We always sit at the bar and there are some bartenders that are just not that friendly. Unfortunately we try to avoid the days we know when that particular bartender is working. read more

We love High Tides and have been enjoying this restaurant for years. Also, we excited that they are opening up a new location in January 2021 on the corner off Gilbert RD and Chandler Heights. This will be in easy walking distance from our home. Having dinner last night for our Anniversary, I have always wanted to try the 'famous fried chicken' but loving seafood, I have never gone off the tracks to try 'fried chicken' at a seafood place. Well, I should have followed my instincts and stayed with seafood. Much to my disappointment, the 'famous buttermilk chicken' was only sub par. It lacked taste and had a small taste of 'honey' that was drizzled over the chicken. No special flavors at all and was really a bit over cooked, as it was a darker brown in appearance. I have found that the best chicken in the East Valley is believe it or not, in the shell gas station on the corner of the intersection of Riggs Road and Alma School. It is called 'Krispy Krunchy Chicken'. It is run by a gal from Florence and as hard as she works is 'Sold Out' each weekday by 1pm. This is the only frustrating thing....all the laborers and snow birds know about this hidden gem in Chandler. It is 'amazingly' moist and has that zesty Cajun zing in each and every bite. She has chicken breast's, thighs, and chicken fingers that even put the famous ' Canes' to shame.......the next time you want some homemade fried chicken I recommend this place. As it pertains, to seafood....'High Tides' is your place! My Wife had the amazing 'Sea Bass' and was so, so, pleased with the entree. The flavor was just amazing and the creamy risotto was off the top! I Still have to give 'four stars', as the staff is amazing and I just picked an over rated entree in my opinion.....I will stay with seafood! Cheers, read more

We've been searching for a good fish fry (with little luck) ever since we moved to AZ from WI back in 2015. High Tide has - by far - the best fish fry in the valley! The atmosphere, menu, service, food & drinks were all outstanding. It couldn't have been better! We can't wait to go back and try other meals - everything looked so delicious and the portions are really generous! This is definitely our new 'go to' restaurant! read more

I don't even know where to start, this place is nothing short of amazing. The dining experience itself, minus the food, is 5 stars. We had else to service as expected, and leftovers. I had the lobster Mac, and hubs had the enchiladas, plus i I ordered a side of bran bread. , this place is so good. As expected, we had plenty of leftovers! Hubs randomly suggested we come here and I'm so happy we did! If you haven't been here, I highly suggest you try it, especially if you're a pescatarian! Hubs had the seafood enchiladas and it was just as good as I remember! Stop what you're doing and being Kmart this place! Be sure to come back and thank me later! read more

Celebrated my parents 65th Wedding anniversary and had a great experience! Attentive service and delicious food. Got there during Crabby Hour and it was quiet and our booth was spacious. Thank you! read more

Tonight the food didn't come close to what we have had in the past. The Scallop dish which is $48 sat on a bed of noodles that honestly tasted just like hamburger helper-- the sauce was too thick & too many things chopped up all mixed in, but I couldn't believe for $48 I was eating what tasted exactly like a $4 box of noodles. The scallops were the star thank goodness, they were seared and not over cooked. I think this dish seriously needs to be re worked. My family had the gumbo and had similar sentiments, the sauce was too thick. I understand gumbo to be a little thicker then soup but this was more like a gravy tonight at least by the time it was served to our table--this review coming from Louisiana and Italian family backgrounds. I think if we come back it will just be for fish and chips. read more

This is such a little gem in Gilbert. They have a delicious menu if you're craving seafood. They have great seating options both inside and outside. If you're COVID conscious I would suggest going right when they open and request for outside seating (this is what me and my family do). Great service, welcoming ambiance, and yummy seafood! read more

Always good food and great service. Drinks are very good. Always busy so make a reservation.

We are regular customer here, maybe 2x a month. But noticed lately that the quality of food particularly the steamed Mussels is low quality. Ordered it a week ago. This time, I ordered Cioppino to have mixed seafood. I got 3 mussels and it was sooo tiny and dry. And the Cioppino?...it's more of Shrimp Cioppino for $32. The server is new and amazing. We're lucky we have her. I will still go to High Tide but won't go regularly anymore. read more

High Tide - Sooo tiny and dry Mussels. - Seafood Near Me - Gilbert, Arizona

Went here for our 44th anniversary tonight. Decided to order the Seafood Pan Roast for $165 at our server's recommendation. It was ok but there was something fundamentally wrong with the concept. It was basically a few different types of seafood sitting on top of a bed of risotto and something called lobster broth which had the consistency and taste of a salty gravy. This gravy ended up coating the lobster and crab leg (yes, only one skinny rubbery crab leg) and got all over my hands when I tried cracking it open. Now, I'm used to messy hands when eating crab, but not from gravy. Not good or appetizing. The scallops, sea bass, shrimp and asparagus were good enough, although pretty salty. My husband said the mussels were good but I don't eat them. Couldn't crack the crab leg so that got left. And the lobster had a mushy texture. read more

Food was very tasty service was excellent. Thx you John for your great service!. Seated right away, not a rush to get us out.

We were here with a group of four and although there were some enjoyable items that the group ordered, it wasn't worth the cost. We ordered clam chowder and ceviche for appetizers, those were good. My entree, the mussels, were so fishy they were inedible. My husband ordered the seared ahi which was decent. The prices here are wildly expensive but the quality doesn't live up to it. read more

On Friday, September 24th, my husband and I went to High Tide for dinner with our 23-month-old son and two friends from out of town. We arrived at 5:40 and were told it would be a 45-60 minute wait, but that it would "probably be less." We decided to stay and wait it out. Our check-in text came in at 5:45. At 6:30, my husband went inside to check on the progress of our table. He was told it would be another 15-20 minutes because our original wait time was put in as an hour. He told the hostess that they should not have told us it would be 45-60 minutes originally. At 6:46, I went in to complain and the hostess apologized and said they were "waiting on people to leave because they were just sitting there talking." At 6:48, I got the call saying that they were getting a table ready for us and that we "could head in." We stood in the entryway for 5 minutes before a hostess lead us to an outdoor table. When we arrived at the table, there were still dishes all over the table and a busboy was in the process of clearing them. We stood there for about a minute and waited. He cleared the table and set out our menus without wiping down the table at all. The hostess then proceeded to place my son's high chair directly under the massive water mister that was above us. We asked if the mister could possibly be turned off and the hostess said, "Unfortunately, we can't do that because other people like them on." It was 6:58 in the evening, the sun had gone down, and it was 86° outside. The mister was definitely not necessary! We walked out, having wasted over an hour of our time. Luckily, throughout this whole ordeal, my almost 2-year-old son remained in good spirits and was satisfied with the crackers I had in his diaper bag. Needless to say, we are NOT happy with how we were treated that evening; nor are we happy with the inconsistencies of the wait time we had to endure. read more

Annual dinner at High Tide with friends. Always quality food. Never ordered The King and was impressed with how much hearty seafood was provided within a single bowl. Very good saffron sauce heavy enough to coat the meat and pasta, but not too much to disturb my stomach. Just enough mushroom and tomato for flavor and texture. Actually was expecting something else (I ordered the wrong dish) but was pleasantly surprised with The King. Also got calamari appetizer and it's the best I've found--like little strip steaks of fried squid. Service was mediocre but figured the fellow was busy with other tables. read more
