Great little beach spot. I had blakened Grouper and the carrot salad. It was well cooked and a decent prize, especially for fresh Grouper. I'll definitely be back! read more

Have heard great things but couldn't get near the place. Please put on your website and answering machine that there's no takeout after 4 pm. Tried many times to call, no answer or busy. Sat in an hour of traffic only to find you don't do takeout after 4 pm. Very frustrating. read more

Neighborhood bar and exceptional grouper sandwich. Love the feel of this place, it is truly what Anna Maria is all about. The key lime pie was excellent. My grouper was blackened, it tasted like it came out of the water that morning. My husband had scallops that he loved. read more

Live in Texas, driving through.... searched a good seafood place to eat for dinner. Found The Starfish Company but they closed at 3pm on Sunday and Monday & told us about their sister resturant, Tide Tables. Was packed, and for obvious reasons. It's on the water, great food and service! !! We sat at the bar to eat dinner because it would have been an hour or more wait and the manager offered us the bar. The bar tender, Louie was fantastic. The atmosphere is perfect. Indoor & outdoor seating. They bring in fresh fish daily. They do not take reservations, it's first come first serve seating, but they have plenty of staff to cover the popularity. Will be back! !!! read more

We had the fried grouper basket and fried shrimp. Both plates were cooked perfectly! Not heavy in grease and our waiter was great!

Food and service was great! I had the fish tacos and they were very fresh and had a nice kick!

The best Fried Flipper (I mean Dolphin, I mean Mahi-Mahi) I've ever had. Great job as always!

Loved the fish tacos! 3 huge tacos with pieces of Mahi! Definitely a place to visit again!

I loved this place!!! It's on the water so it's really pretty views if you sit outside. The service was nice and attentive. I had the fish tacos and they were soooo delicious and very flavorful. I would definitely go back for those! read more

Tide Tables has the best "waiting room" in the world! Go get a beer at the tiki hut and sit on the dock until your table is ready. Becky makes you feel welcome as you park your car. Wait staff are friendly and fish is fab. I don't like writing this review because it might tempt you to go to Tide Tables and make it harder for me to get a table. But then I remember the waiting room! read more

Great place ! Best seafood ever and so fresh Love it here! This gem is going to be around a long time Great staff. I will be back! read more

Love this place! Comfortable,friendly, delicious. Definitely check it out when you are out on Cortez. Wine Nd beer.... no real booze. read more

I wish I could go here every single day. The staff was extremely friendly and while the food did take a little while to come out I was more than happy with the wait time. It was worth it when we were served these massive 9 oz fish filets. I decided to take it light and have a blackened Corvina. (it was my first time trying it) This meal will always remind me of Anna Maria Island. I loved to be able to end it on a sweet note with their Oreo and Cream Pie. This was one of their specials so I am unsure when it will come around again. If you happen to be there during that time don't miss out. It is the perfect combination of melty chocolate and a flakey crust. They should rename it death by chocolate. read more

Very fresh seafood, dockside location, casual delicious!! Come early, parking is sometimes limited, because of the popularity of this restaurant. Post covid most seating for meals is outside. Bar inside. read more

There is something about eating on the water that makes everything taste better. Or so I'm assuming, given the amount of five star reviews on this waterfront establishment. We chose to stop in for lunch on a whim as we headed home from a gorgeous vacation on Anna Maria Island. Tide Tables is conveniently located as you make your way off the island, sitting right on the water, and given the amount of positive Yelp reviews, it seemed like the perfect way to end our trip. The place itself is simple: lacquered high top tables and bench seating on the inside, and picnic tables out back. Seating outside had a 45 minute wait when we arrived, so we opted for an empty table inside. Fortunately, the place is very open, so you still get the feel of eating on the water. We snagged an order of conch fritters for the table, something our NorthWest friends had never experienced, and were pleased to find they were crisp and flavorful. A good portion of our table ordered the fish tacos, since they seem to be what most Yelpers rave about. The fish itself (you can choose Mahi or Grouper) was tasty, although mine was slightly overcooked. The tacos come with a ginger sesame sauce that was a bit overpowering, if not unnecessary. I'd recommend ordering the taco with the sauce on the side, or not at all. Our friends ordered battered fried fish, grilled fish, and a shrimp po boy - and all were quite happy. If you are looking for a nice cold beer to go with your seafood, they have a decent selection, particularly their Cigar City brews, but our waitress didn't mention those choices. You may want to look around for a list of beers/ciders available rather than relying on the waitstaff to rattle them off for you. Overall, it was definitely a pleasant spot to soak up the Florida experience, without feeling overly touristy. Cold beer, fried fish, and plenty of sunshine make it a popular spot, so be prepared to wait if you arrive at peak hours. read more

Can't say enough. What a FIND. The grouper is right off the boat FRESH. We saw them cutting the fish on the dock. The bar had an amazing view. It looks like a fish shack dive and it is. Worth the trip. Grouper salad is fabulous. read more

Known for their fresh Grouper caught daily! We had cajun grouper bites, grouper tacos and grouper sandwich ....all blackened, all excellent! Great craft brews on hand and both their key lime and Pina colada awesome, fresh and scratch made. Take a pass on the "gumbo" Great spot! read more

Great casual and friendly atmosphere! This place is located right off the water and offers indoor and outdoor seating. The waitress told us Tide Tables is most famous for its shrimp and grouper so our party split two combo baskets (shrimp, scallops, and Mahi and Mahi. You can upgrade to grouper for $4.) We got one of the baskets fried and the other blackened. Both were delicious! We had one non-seafood eater so she got the mojo chicken with slaw and homemade barbecue baked beans. They tasted so good! Everyone at our table was happy and satisfied. I highly recommend if you're in the area to check out this place! The only downside? No sweet tea. That's always a "bummer" in my book. read more

Covid lunch review...called ahead and ordered grouper sandwiches and tacos. We were asked for a credit card # and what car we would be driving so that the order could be dropped off when we pulled up. Seamless; mask-wearing server brought lunch out to the car and off we went. Grouper was great, price was reasonable and we were completely satisfied! read more

Stopped here with two adults, 2 kids. Staff was friendly and the guy working the "wait for your table" drink hut gave us some great recommendations for other local restaurants. Fish tacos were delicious, as well as the grouper bites! The grouper sandwich was good, but not the best we had on the trip. Not a full bar, but had a decent selection of local beer. It was a bit pricey for the atmosphere though - beautiful view but divey. read more

We wanted super fresh seafood, and we got it! The mahi mahi was the best I've ever had! I love that they had options other than fried. The fish tacos were also a great hit without table.

Great atmosphere! Excellent views! Terrific food! Such a fun place if you're looking for something less commercial. We had the peel and eat shrimp, grouper bites and conch fritters.

Amazing seafood. Loved the grouper. Had a bite of the fish tacos and it was amazing as well. Don't skip out on the Key Lime Pie. Everything was phenomenal. read more

Took my family to tide tables for lunch today. It was our first time. We came by boat. Found a slip with almost no waiting. We chose to sit inside in the air conditioning. Jessie greeted us almost immediately and brought us ice cold beer. The blackened mahi sandwich is fantastic! It came with a homemade roumelade that added the perfect amount of spice. My son had a chicken sandwich with mango barbecue sauce. He looks like he could've eaten three. This is our new go to spot for fish sandwiches. read more

We always eat here when we are in the area. The fish tacos are the best I have had. I usually opt for the baked beans. It seemed like a strange choice at first, but they are delicious. I have also had the blackened grouper. It was very good as well. read more

Probably the best Grouper I've had lately. Make sure to try the Chicken and Chorizo Gumbo and Conch Fritters as well. This place, sitting at the foot of the Cortez Ave bridge (FL 684), fits perfectly with the spirit of the fishing village of Cortez. A little noisy with inside seating, it is reminiscent of the seafood "shacks" that fondly dominate my memories. Freshness and proper cooking are the keys to excellent seafood and Tide Tables has mastered both of these. Service is friendly and efficient. Parking is somewhat limited, but doable. read more

This place is awesome!! Great food! we stop by every time we head down to Siesta Key. Hidden Gem for locals you gotta go!!
