The oysters here were so good! They were fresh and came with a variety of sauces to top them off with. Their hush puppies were also really good along with the blue crab dip.

Our visit to Tides was disappointing -- after a 5 hr drive we just wanted to eat at the hotel as it was close to 830 and I had 2 hungry kids. We didn't mind the short wait for a table but it took another 15 minutes for any server to notice us, and when we ordered, we had to send back a kid's chicken that was pink and undercooked. We asked for a kid's pasta with butter sauce instead- and the sauce was just a pool of melted butter. I ordered the mahi mahi tacos but one of them was filled with chicken. At least some effort could have been made!? It just felt like the kitchen didn't care about the food being sent out. For a hotel charging $400+ per night I expected the onsite restaurant to provide a higher quality experience.

I recently stayed at the Waterfront Marriott where Tides Coastal Kitchen is and I enjoyed visiting this hotel restaurant. My first experience was the hotel bar on the evening i checked in. Kevin, my bartender was super friendly and made a delish dirty martini. I also popped in the following day for lunch. I sat outside in the picnic tables which was glorious because the view was the ocean and the sand. Who doesn't up their productivity when waterfront?! Luis was my server and was friendly and attentive. I opted for the mixed greens salad which included brioche croutons, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, manchego cheese, bacon, mustard vinaigrette. I also opted to add steak for some protein. It was a great lunch and the portion of steak was double so it was very filling. The employees at the restaurant were welcoming, gave me recs for the area, and remembered my name each of the 3 times I visited in the two days I was there. While it is a hotel bar, I did notice there are locals that come to visit because they knew the bartenders by name each night. Good option if you're staying in the hotel.

You walk into Tides and you can already see the ocean. Patio seating is a must . Started with a variety of Oysters delicious. We had the fish and chips amazing! huge fresh portion of fish . Serves on point everyone friendly and smiling.

4 stars for the view outside and the friendly service otherwise i would give a 3 for food/menu accuracy/price. Specifically came here because their website lists seafood Cobb salad but that was not on their menu, same for the chicken bacon ranch sandwich my husband looked forward to. Instead I had to get the seafood pasta which was delicious but unfortunately my husband was not so lucky. He instead fell to the chicken tender platter, it being $25 you would expect had at least 10 tenders on it but was basically the size of a children's meal. Will def come back for the vibe but think management needs to review their menu

Crab Cake, mashed potatoes, Grilled Asparagus

Lovely hotel restaurant- staff were extremely friendly & attentive. Not pictured are the calamari & hush puppies appetizers, both were served fresh & delicious! 10/10 recommend if you're in the area.

I am going to be kind with this review even though my better judgment says I should be brutally honest. 1) Really not a fan of this restaurant. 2) The food looks amazing, however the taste leaves much to be desired. The fact is the food needs to have taste. I ordered the Fish n Chips and even with the Malt Vinegar there was no taste. The crab bisque tasted too much like carrots. My wife had the Salmon and was not impressed, my daughter had the Sliders and Mac n Cheese and was also not impressed. My mother in law had the Shrimp Cocktail and had to wash off the Shrimp to make it taste good for her. 3) Limited Beer selection( 3 choices). 4) Our server was nice and eager to please but seemed a bit overwhelmed. 5) The ambiance was fine but could have been better with a larger beer selection. Would I come back? As a local, no, there are better choices.

Service was terrible, food was mid, but the view was good. We sat at our table for 50 minutes before being greeted even though we went to the hostess stand twice to ask for service. Thankfully, I was in good company so we were fine waiting and watching the sunset. By the end of the meal we started joking "we're going to die here" bc everything took FOREVER. It was a 3.5 hour dinner that should've been 45 minutes. There were four tables who came in after us and got their food before we were greeted, and at the same time, we saw 3 other tables walk out because they sat for 30+ minutes without being greeted. I think some of the servers are great and some could use training and it's just role of the dice on who you get. Our check was wrong, about $40 over. Another interesting observation. We saw a couple getting engaged on the far end of the patio at a special set up. About 30 minutes after the engagement, the couple and their families came to have dinner on the dining side of the patio, but there weren't enough seats. The man who proposed told the hostess they had a RSVP and she said "it doesn't matter if you had a reservation or not we don't have the tables available" and so they left. I can't imagine having that experience after getting engaged.

We walked in on a weekend with no reservations and chose to sit outside and enjoy fresh air. Loved the view and live music. We were able to even see dolphins in the water. We ordered calamari's and oysters that were decent. I ordered the shrimp scampi and my hair and ordered fish and chips. I think all the food and drinks were great. A bit pricey but all tasted well. Service was ok, nothing extravagant except when they brought our food out and explained the difference in oysters. I did enjoy the food display and the ability to add drops or horseradish.

Vibes were pretty good pretty views. Food was ok we just got apps. Manager was not present was eating and on her phone when we walked up I had to cough to get her attention. She couldn't find the reservations (she was looking at the wrong day) Drinks were bad. The seasonal menu was still from the fall it is late spring. Tasted like just liquor and nothing else. Crush was so sour. Not good. Don't charge $15 for a bad cocktail. Not great go elsewhere

I was able to catch their March 20th deal for $35++ pp which allowed me to sample their new spring menu. Portions were healthy sizes and wonderfully plated. Patio seating was open, therefore I took advantage of that beautiful day to enjoy my meal alfresco on a cool, sunny day with lovely views of the Chesapeake Bay. I had the warm spinach crab dip with the most delicious, soft and flavorful pita bread. I could have just even eaten the pita bread alone. However,the dip was plentiful and had actual crabmeat on top. Savory and not overly heavy with cheese or spinach- a good balance, quite good and filling! My sister had the fried calamari which was a pleaser as well, not too chewy and the accompanying sauces enhanced the taste even more. The breading was crispy but with enough softness at the same time. If you are a tentacle lover, you might be disappointed, as there weren't many or any if at all. (I'm not a fan of tentacles.) entrees- I had the roasted rockfish which had an orange ginger glaze & plated on a bed of carolina gold rice. The fish was meaty in texture, light firm & white. The flavors really came through. My sister had the grilled ribeye with fries. The steak with chimichurri sauce was cooked medium well per her request. The rosemary fries were hidden under the steak. I was able to sample some from my sister. Those fries were really good & well seasoned. I'm not sure why they place the steak over the fries versus plate them to the side. The choices of dessert were chocolate cake, creme brûlée or key lime pie. I opted for the chocolate cake and my sister went with the cream brulee but we each halved ours so we could try both. They both did not disappoint! The chocolate cake was massive - tall and thick with chocolate ganache with the cake portion soft, moist but crumbly yet soo good. The creme brulee was a winner as well. Creme brulee is always a good choice if you want a light dessert. It was delightful! You could hear the crisp crackle as the spoon broke into the top torched caramelized sugar. The sound alone was satisfying. It's nice to be able to enjoy the restaurant and patio before memorial day hits and it becomes noisy and busy.

I've never written an online review for any business or product, but dinner at Tides Coastal Kitchen for my wife and I was a memorable experience. The online reviews were promising, and the website made it seem like a chill "coastal" vibe, away from the louder Virginia Beach strip. We had reservations and were seated promptly on the patio at 7:30 on a recent Friday in July. Nice view of the Bay and sunset. What we hadn't expected was the incredibly loud dance music thumping just yards away, on the portion of the patio that was serving as a poor excuse for a club. It was so loud that we wouldn't hear each other talk, and we wondered later how the hotel guests and surrounding condos felt about the migraine-inducing noise. (Our Gen-X souls felt particularly crushed when the DJ started blaring a techno version of "Smells Like Teen Spirit." I'm so sorry, Kurt.) Our waiter, bless his heart, was clearly only a few days on the job, and it's possible he had never been to a restaurant before in his life. There was a special "Fried Chicken & Champagne Fridays" menu that the hostess had handed to us, and he said that he'd never seen it before. There was, however, no drinks/cocktails menu, but he did kindly list the beer options for me. We ordered Oysters Rockefeller as an app. Having lived in New Orleans, the birthplace of the dish, I don't know what I thought I'd be getting here. When they arrived, they smelled like moldy fish, and when I tasted a bit of one, they were clearly not cooked enough. Not eating them was the best decision of the night. Another highlight was my beer. Unbeknownst to me, the draft beer system at Tides apparently has some sort of trick where the bottom of their plastic cups has a magnetic ring that has a replaceable metal disc sticking to it. The disc has a cute message on it ("Would you rather?"), I guess to spur conversation when you reach the end of your beer. (How someone is supposed to have a conversation in that EDM din, I'm not sure.) I didn't realize this, and when my wife asked about the bottom of my glass, I poked at it from the bottom with my finger, the metal disk came loose, and most of my beer spilled through the hole in the bottom, all over the table and me. Perhaps a warning to patrons about the hole in the bottom of one's beer cup would be helpful. For dinner, I got the fish and chips, which were lukewarm (the chips) and small (the fish). My wife got the fried chicken bucket special, which had two enormous (and enormously dry) biscuits and one fried thigh and one fried wing. Not much of a bucket. The special had included an option for a bottle of sparkling wine, but by the time our waiter realized that was missing, we were already done "eating," so we cancelled that. My wife and I have traveled the world and eaten many meals, and we've spent enough time in Virginia Beach to know to keep our expectations mid on a summer Friday. But along with having to find our own silverware, anti-fly fan, and the hearing loss, this was one of the laughably bad meals we've had in a while. They didn't charge us for the bottle that never arrived, but they did try to charge us for the oysters, which I asked to be removed from the bill. On the way out, my wife saw a cockroach in the bathroom.

This was my first visit to Tides Coastal Kitchen formerly The Tin Cup Oyster Bar. They changed the name last month for what reasons I do not know. The menu did receive a small revamp as well and still offers seafood, but apparently not a focus. For non hotel guest parking is free by using the valet service. Pull straight in and receive a ticket. Throw them a few bucks tip as the service is never free. I found this to be ideal to bring in locals like myself. The valets were welcoming and instructed us where Tides was located after entering the hotel lobby. Everything was clean and presented nicely. The elevator is to the left walking in and the restaurant is on the second floor in the rear. Everything we encountered was clean and looked nice, even smelled good. A hostess was welcoming and seated us at our choice of table which was on the deck. It was a hot mid day weekend, but perfect for vacation vibes with nearby pool and the bay in front of us. Lots of activity off the water and cabanas dotted along the water line. Our waiter provided menus and followed up with drinks in a timely manner. He smiled and was friendly. The deck was probably 25% capacity, again it was hot! A piña colada and margarita was ordered. Waters were automatically put on the table which is smart, however they were small cups. The menu is smallish which is ok as a variety of items to chose from was offered. The drinks took possibly 15 minutes, too long! Our orders were taken at that time. Fish n' chips spoke to me as it's a fave I tend to get when ever I see. But a whopping $28 seemed obscene. My wife got a Chicken Cesar Salad with a more modest price point of $14. We really enjoyed the drink and view and was in no rush thankfully. A water refill was performed as we wait. I would recommend larger cups or a decanter for guest to fill on their own. Places that want a higher level of service can get burned if they do not perform. After approximately 35 minutes food came out. This was too long of a wait. A second water refill was performed as both were almost empty. Ketchup was provided. I immediately asked for more tartar sauce. My wife thought her salad was fresh and tasty. The croutons had a different take with a mini baguette appearance. The visual was spot on. My fish n' chips was huge! Two large pieces + a half. The fries were place underneath and not overly plentiful. The waiter did return quickly with add sauce. The white fish was cooked correctly with an excellent crispy batter. The fries although fine initially went down hill with grease soaking in from the fish. I absolutely loved the fish, but there was too much in my opinion. I would lower the price point $5 and do one less piece as well as the fries should not be placed underneath. No follow up on taste, or add needs. Past the half way point of our meal the waters were empty. The waiter was absent to request a refill, but ultimately should never need to ask. Another server did see the need for refills and took care of it. Fantastic teamwork. When we saw our waiter we asked for a check. At this point we had been there over an hour and a half. The total was $81 and change without tip. After 20% applied over $100. This obviously was too much for the overall experience. The waiter I might add was 100% friendly and accommodating, but likely stretched to thin with tables inside. The restrooms are just outside their door and we found both clean. However the sink faucets are too high causing water to go every where. This review was a bit of a challenge to nail down on a even number scale. I do not believe they hit a 3 (A-OK) in my book. However they were not far off with a 2.5 rounding down. Higher prices are somewhat expected at resort properties. However absent and slow service with no follow up cannot be given a 3 if I'm evaluating. I would encourage them to develop a social presence. Their Instagram has no photos. Spend some money on professional photos highlighting a revamped menu. For me I probably will not return any time soon.

We made our reservations for a birthday. We were seated quickly. However, the service is what I would call 'functional'. Not personable at all. If you needed to ask a question, it wasn't easy to get her attention. I ordered the tuna at medium. It was delivered rare. It mentioned there was tabouleh as well, but it was such a small amount. My husband had the steak and frites. The frites had been sitting under a warmer for quite awhile. They were coldish and almost seemed stale. They didn't even offer dessert for a birthday. Not much of a celebration there. We won't be back. read more

Don't come here expecting anything more than an airport restaurant feel. The service was subpar, the food was just ok. We went on a Saturday for brunch. The view is lovely, if you're seated by the window. If you happen to get the tables in the "back," it's hardly worth it. Probably a decent place to eat if you're staying at the hotel. Locals, there are way better options. read more

Eh, As my neighbor put it "Overpriced hotel food with a view". Hotel seemed nice as we walked through the lobby, but a few things we didn't love about the restaurant... 1) Parking.... teeny tiny little spots. Don't bring a nice car! And there was a massive pile of vomit right next to our car when we finally found a decent end spot. 2) Had a reservation for 5pm. There was 1 other table that had people at it. We were taken to a table in the middle of the room, but we asked to sit in a table by the wall to minimize people walking past us from the kitchen, etc because we had unvaccinated baby with us. After waiting a long time standing in the middle of the room, we were told that we could not sit anywhere but in that one table in the middle of the room. We left at 6:15pm and the many tables on the side of the room were empty the entire time we were there. Seemed a bit ridiculous that they refused to accommodate our request when there were several empty tables there from start to finish of our meal. And I had a reservation. 3) Servings are mostly small. BBQ salad was a good size but the wings were tiny little wings. And my son had a pasta dish that was like a little side dish. It was comical how small the kids pasta was. the kids burger was a better choice. We got the side of peppers that was Eh. 4) Got a Crush that was pretty good, but also small for $8. 5) Food was OK but definitely not anything I would go back for. We would maybe go back for the view on a nice day if we could sit outside. Our server was nice and attentive and seemed embarrassed that we couldn't move tables. read more

We stayed at Delta hotel and are glad to find a casual place to eat when needed. The lunch and dinner are decent, with food packed nicely in their box for take out and the kids enjoyed the almost gourmet Children's burger. The breakfast buffet had a low CP, for $18 we got fruits, bagels, bread, eggs, dry sausage links and bacons. I would suggest getting their menu items for breakfast instead of buffet. FYI, it's ocean front, so the view is beautiful. read more

No vegan options?? In 2022? Seriously? There is literally nothing on the menu except French fries for me to order as a vegan. I had to sit there with my group of friends and just order FRIES at a restaurant with $40 entrees. On top of that, our food took TWO HOURS to arrive at our table. You read that right. TWO HOURS. Our reservation was at 7:30, and we were served food at 9:40. I'm not exaggerating. Additionally, the wait made me cave and order a $14 drink, and it tasted like they didn't put any alcohol in it at all. It was 70% Ice, and the rest was for sure just juice. This place is the closest a restaurant can be to a money-hungry scam preying on tourists, and the occasional local (such as me and my friends). Get your act together Tin Cup! What a monumental waste of time and money. read more

We were offered a table outside which was nice, but decided to stay at the bar.

Where to begin..our party of six was seated in this modern coastal but welcoming restaurant (second floor of the Delta Hotel) on time for our reservation. I was even struck by how comfortable the cushioned chair was and excited to notice they had live music. Our server came right over with menues and a friendly attitude. We enjoyed the cocktails (I wish they had more of a wine selection) excellent appetizers-- including east and west coast oysters (great presentation), corn and crab hush puppies, and brussel sprouts. The catch of the day sandwich was AMAZING (I recommend the bronzing choice of the fish), the gnocci and shrimp was excellent, crabcake sandwich-tasty, short rib grilled cheese-our entire party of six enjoyed our meals very much. Our server was very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly--every thing was really great and we will be back. We really enjoyed the live music and wished we brought more cash to place in the tip jar of the musician. We didn't want our night to end so we even ordered dessert--DELICIOUS (flourless chocolate cake and lemon sponge This place has a positive vibe, its really clean and the food is top notch. read more

Well I must say we were more than disappointed. I think the staff was trying. But Marriott corporate must be hand stringing them. The layout of the bar, the fact that you can't stand or sit in the area that's reserved for weddings. If you could watch the sunsets from the far left side when no weddings are going on at sunset is insane!!!! They need to rethink that whole outdoor area. I know Covid and Democrats have totally screwed up the service industry but they need new and more bartenders. It's the perfect location this time of year to watch sunsets and they could have such a crowd down there, management their needs to get off their butts. read more

Very disappointed in our first visit to the Tin Cup. First of all when we looked online to read the menu and about the Dune Deck and bar, it said that there was first come first served seating either on the deck or at the bar, so we went early on a Saturday evening. When we pulled up to the Valet, they told us to drive across the street and park in the Hot Tuna parking lot. We had to cross busy Shore Drive on a Saturday afternoon. Then we walked up to the hostess desk, and inquired about sitting on the outdoor deck and she told us there was at least a 2 hour wait even though there were empty tables out there and no one apparently waiting for them, so we opted to sit inside the dining room. We were promptly greeted by our very sweet waitress, Lauren, who brought us cold water and our cocktails. When we started reading the menu, we realized that it did not resemble what we had read online before we decided to give this place a try. All the favorites that we pre decided on were not on the menu! When we spoke with Lauren about this, she gave a feeble excuse about not having enough staff! Not enough staff to offer the same menu that was online????? When we expressed our disappointment she offered to send over a manager which we declined. We just asked for our check and left. NOT A GOOD FIRST IMPRESSION FROM A MARRIOTT PROPERTY!!! read more

We weren't expecting a lot based on the reviews but we were very happy with the service and food. Definitely a place we'd be happy to go back to if we stay at this hotel again in the future. Most hotel restaurants are mediocre and are just an easy option for hotel guests, but the food was delicious. The staff was very friendly and the service was very good for the amount staffing they have. We love local oysters and we were impressed by the taste and quality. We've had oysters at a lot of restaurants but have never seen the droppers they give you for the sauces. It was was very unique and made us wonder why no one else does that. The mussels were big and delicious. We also got an order of fries which were perfectly cooked and tasty. Even the food other people had looked great. The drinks were great too. Only downside was the weather was bad so we couldn't sit outside, but the outdoor area seems like a great place to sit. read more

We had lunch. Good ambience outside, right at the beach. Few lunch choices for vegetarians. Great burratta salad with balsamic reduction and heirloom tomatoes. Tasty frisée salad. Waitstaff puzzled by a request for bread with the meal, also didn't offer any non alcoholic beverages other than "we can make these Virgin". Iced tea maybe? Cold coffee? Sparkling water? Aqua panna? Looks like a great place for seafood lovers. Enjoyed the dishes available to us. Good value for really good food in a beautiful setting. read more

And that's for the location. Only item anyone liked was a salad. The Oysters Rockefeller were dry and came out cold. The short rib grill cheese was under seasoned and flavorless with an overabundance of greasy toasted bread. The fish was sinfully overcooked and crab stuffing had way too much filler. Mussels were OK. We had high expectations as there have been some good reviews however, your options for great food on Shore Drive don't warrant anything except to stop in during happy hour for a crush which were very good save for the burned/dry oranges they use as garnish that gave the appearance of being candied which would have been an amazing idea BUT were just dried tasteless inedible orange slices. read more

Quemar has been on my list for a while since it's right down the street from my office, but since…read morethey aren't open for lunch, I never got around to trying it until recently. My husband, best friend, and I went during happy hour, and I was impressed by how many items were on the menu. We started with the chips and guac (even my guac-hating husband liked it!) and the wings with the server's recommendation of blueberry BBQ sauce. It sounds unusual, but it was SO good. They only have chipotle blue cheese for dipping, and as someone who isn't a big blue cheese fan, I was surprised by how much I liked it. All three of us ordered the smashburger and fries from the happy hour menu for $12. This was a true smashburger with thin patties with crispy edges, not the thicker burgers a lot of places try to pass off as one. I've been thinking about it ever since. I'll definitely be back, especially since happy hour is extended until 7 p.m. on Thursdays. Next time, I want more wings and to try the tacos. Great atmosphere for a date night or girls' night out!

Cocktails: The cocktails that were chosen were the blackberry smash, chilcano, and tequila new fashion. All was a hit Food: My favorite app was the ceviche. However, my friends enjoyed the brussel sprouts and esquites more so. For the food, I got the chicken tinga. Flavor was great and the goat cheese paired well with the chipotle sauce. However, it was pretty dry. I think they should try using chicken thighs next time. My other friends got the short rib burrito and ribeye. They both enjoyed their food

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was perfect. We were seated in a booth near the live band, and it created such a fun, relaxing vibe. The dim lighting gave the restaurant a cozy, intimate feel that was perfect for a night out and really added to the overall ambiance. Before our entrées arrived, we couldn't stop eating the focaccia. It was warm, fresh, and so flavorful that we immediately wished there had been more. We also ordered the beef kebabs with chimichurri sauce, and they were incredible. The beef was tender, and the bright, herb-filled chimichurri brought everything together perfectly. Honestly, I could have used another serving of both the bread and the sauce! By the time our main courses arrived, we were already pleasantly full, but that didn't stop us from enjoying every bite. My husband is a creature of habit--ever since our first date, he usually orders the same or very similar dishes. The only reason he branches out is because I love cooking and introducing him to new flavors, or he'll happily steal a bite from my plate when we go out. This time, he ordered the steak with mashed potatoes, and it was cooked beautifully. The steak was tender, flavorful, and paired perfectly with the creamy mashed potatoes. Between the delicious food, the live music, and the inviting atmosphere, this restaurant made my birthday celebration even more memorable. It's the kind of place that's perfect for a special occasion or a romantic date night, and I'd gladly come back again.

Such a great variety. Fresh fruit of all kinds, french toast, waffles and chicken, biscuits and gravy, bacon, sausage , scrabbled eggs, quiche, house potatoes, deviled eggs, and a charcuterie board . On the sweet side they had mini cinnamon rolls, danish, brownies, cookies and cupcakes with the galentine theme.

The lovely staff were genuinely happy to take photos for us without any prompting. The flow of the buffet was perfect, and the food presentation was delightfully charming! There was a photo back drop available and the decor was so festive, and classy yet simple. The decor wasn't over the top , it was just the right amount of decorations to add pizzazz and celebrate with festive spirit. We all had a very enjoyable time celebrating Galentine's day! It was a wonderful event in an equally wonderful space. The music was on point, as well as the volume level. It was loud enough to enjoy the music, yet low enough that you could hold a conversation without screaming to hear each other. It was very peaceful and even if you don't choose a booth, the tables on the opposite side of the bar do provide some privacy due to the small partitions. The variety of food offered was just right (not overwhelmingly too many options and not too little options) and the food was tasty. It was an excellent first impression that left me excited to await what other fun events they will hold in the future.

As for the distillery- someone had the brilliant idea to turn off all the lights in there at 7- so there went your view and any ambient lighting in the dim basement. The service was slow and lackluster. The food was lousy. I had the venison, which was under-seasoned. The pepper gravy had no pepper in it. Only the Brussels sprouts had any actual flavor. The bourbon was the best part of the meal. They offer small 2ox tasters and it was actually quite well done. But not worth going back for.

I will not order She Crab soup anywhere else after trying theirs. The wedge has pickled onions, candied bacon, blue cheese and some kind of marinated or pickled tomato. Paired all together to make the perfect bite. We have tried a lot of the menu, it does rotate around seasonally, but there are some items that are consistent. The burger was absolutely decadent but not overwhelming. I usually order the "secret", not so secret Shrimp dinner that's not on the menu anymore. You get 6 of their amazing fried shrimp, a magical dipping sauce (cant' describe it!), and 2 sides. (see what's their seasonal sides!)

I would absolutely purchase a jar of the sauce alone. CRAB RANGOON FLATBREAD : an elevated version of a favorite take out additive. Sauce to ingredient ratio was to die for! GREEN GODDESS & MANGO SALAD : this salad was dressed to perfection, allowing all items to shine in its each individual way. CHILI CRUNCH TUNA POKE : I mean you quite literally will explode with satisfaction with every bite. The freshness and variety of flavor / texture is impeccable. FRIED RICE W/EGG ON SIDE : you can absolutely distinguish that whoever is on the line preparing your fried rice is doing so with the experience in mind. The preparation of the shrimp, the array of colored FRESH vegetables, and the rice itself. DIRTY MARTINI FETTUCINE PASTA : a blue cheese olive dirty martini is my all time favorite drink so lo and behold, there was a pasta created by its existence. The block of blue cheese down to the plethora of capers, absolute chefs kiss. BBQ DUCK : honestly if this was all I ordered , I would be more than satisfied. This item was accompanied by the most decadent Mac & Cheese , a perfected bowl of collard greens, and the pickled mountain of cabbage. STRAWBERRY CRUMB CRÈME BRÛLÉE : for the most part , I tend to stray away from a crème brûlée due to the lack of creativity. HOWEVER, the strawberry crunch crumbs and that dream of a sugar crust. I could clear a couple plates of this. PASSIONFRUIT & PANDAN TART : this hit every note of a well rounded dessert. The passionfruit was so tart with a subtle sourness that aided the coconut shortbread cookie. I would like to shout out our waitress Fantasia for an amazing service that evening by ensuring the plates never stopped coming, drinks stayed full, and any requests satisfied. As well as Chef Braedon for coming out to introduce himself and explain the magic he placed on our table. My friends and I will most definitely be back.

We went at 10am so it was not crowded when we went on a Tuesday. Once a bunch of people were seated the it became extremely noisy. My 16 year old niece said the same thing. Food was great. I got Po' Boy wrap and fries. They make all their dipping sauces fresh. Very good. The other was a breakfast with 2 over easy eggs. Made perfectly. Biscuit and gravy with bacon on top and hashbrowns.. pretty good. Now this is just me BUT I personally will not go back because of the 18% tip they automatically add to your bill.

We made a reservation for six to celebrate my twins' 25th birthday and had a very disappointing experience. We waited over 20 minutes just to be greeted at the hostess stand, and the hostess was flippant and rude. Our server was scattered and inattentive--no water refills, no additional drink offers, dishes not cleared, and very little table attention throughout the meal. I had arranged in advance to bring a birthday cake and agreed to the serving fee. However, the manager brought the cake out before clearing the dirty plates, still in the box, and set it on a table next to us because there was no space. No utensils, no plates, and no knife were provided, so I had to cut and serve the cake myself using an extra to-go box on the table. My daughter even had to grab napkins from the bar just so we could serve it. Shockingly, our server whispered in my ear asking if he could have a piece of the cake before he had assisted with anything. Despite providing no actual cake service, we were charged the full $30 serving fee on top of the automatic 20% gratuity. Overall, this birthday dinner felt unorganized, inattentive, and not worth the cost. Very disappointing for what should have been a special celebration. The food itself was good, but certainly not great--nothing that justified the level of stress and disorganization we experienced. It's clear that the core issue is management, and that lack of leadership has created a culture of poor service from the moment you walk in the door. With better management, this restaurant could easily be much better, but as it stands now, the overall experience simply does not match the price or the expectations for a planned celebration. read more

I had the pleasure of dining at Tides Coastal Kitchen at the Delta Hotel, and all I can say is -- WOW! Chef Richard Mason truly delivered an unforgettable meal that exceeded every expectation. We started with the hush puppies, which were perfectly golden on the outside and soft on the inside -- the ideal starter to get our taste buds ready for what was to come. For our entrees, we enjoyed the steak frite served with fresh asparagus and flavorful accompaniments that elevated each bite -- the steak was tender, juicy, and cooked to perfection. The fish and chips were also fantastic -- light, crispy batter with flaky, tender fish inside, served with house fries, tartar sauce, and slaw. Every bite was full of flavor without feeling heavy. And let's talk about dessert -- the chocolate cake layered with rich chocolate, topped with fresh berries, was both beautiful and delicious. A perfect sweet ending! The attention to detail, flavor combinations, and presentation were on point. You can truly taste Chef Mason's passion and skill in every single dish. The atmosphere at Tides Coastal Kitchen was inviting and relaxing, the beach view was perfect, made the entire dining experience even better. I highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for an exceptional meal in a beautiful setting. I can't wait to return! read more

From the moment I stepped into The Tin Cup Kitchen & Oyster Bar, I was struck by the warm and welcoming ambiance. The restaurant had a cozy, rustic feel that made me feel right at home. Now, let's talk about the food. The oysters were simply outstanding - fresh, plump and delicious, with a perfect balance of saltiness and sweetness. The presentation was impressive, with the oysters beautifully displayed on a bed of ice. They were served with a zesty mignonette sauce that perfectly complemented the delicate taste of the oysters. I couldn't resist ordering another round! The Caesar salad was equally impressive. The lettuce was crisp and fresh, the croutons were crunchy, and the parmesan cheese added a sharpness that brought everything together. The dressing was perfectly balanced - not too creamy, not too tangy - just right. It was evident that the kitchen takes great care in using high-quality ingredients, which makes all the difference in the final product. The service was impeccable, too. The staff was knowledgeable and attentive, and they were happy to provide recommendations based on our preferences. They made sure that our dining experience was top-notch. read more

This was my first time visiting this restaurant and I give it 5 stars. My server was Bella and she was just so amazing and sweet and friendly. She made sure we were taken care of the whole time and the other server Peter wasn't our server but he still made sure we were well taken care of. The food was so delicious. I had a great experience read more

Tides Coastal Kitchen was such a great find! The calamari was light, crispy, and perfectly seasoned. For my mains, the steak frites was cooked just right and the salmon with gnocchi was rich, flavorful, and comforting. Excellent service and a beautiful coastal vibe made the whole experience even better." read more

Was there for my first time recently. The food was amazing and the views were pretty spectacular (we sat on the patio). The best part was definitely the service, which was top tier. Peter really did an excellent job. 10/10 would recommend read more

Jason is a worst bartender I ever meet. He is racists and he services are the worst of the worst. His cocktail tastes nasty. I hope the manager see this and know what he or she need to do. read more
