    If you want amazing seafood in Arizona this place is a must try! They get fresh seafood daily from the east coast and west coast so some of the best options available! It’s such a hidden gem and I’m so glad we found it ! The restaurant is beautiful and clean, the service was top notch (we had a large party of 20+ for a birthday and they took great care of us) and the food IS DELICIOUS! Some of the best seafood, appetizers and entrees I’ve ever had! 🤤 We ordered the oysters, Brussels sprouts and chicken wings for apps and all of it was perfect! Best chicken wings I’ve ever had and that honey hot sauce is a must try ! We also ordered the gumbo, fried chicken, filet mignon and a bunch of other stuff lol but all of it was soooo good ! I want to go back and try the entire menu because EVERYTHING was fire! 🔥 Their mac n cheese was to die for also so have to call that out - you have to order the mac n cheese! Lol overall it was amazing though so we are new fans and we can’t wait to come back ! 5 star establishment from start to finish! Great job High Tide! 🔥❤️🫶🏽

    This is an upscale seafood place. Thw food was great, and the service was attentive without being overbearing. The place will be my go-to for good seafood. The atmosphere is welcoming, comfortable and easy. Conversation can be had without the feeling of others listening in. It was quiet at first, but within a short time, the tables filled and ot became quite busy. This is a great seafood place!

    We went to High Tide to celebrate my husband birthday and it did not disappoint. The food was amazing, the drinks were phenomenal and then service was great. It was a Friday night and we did not make reservations so we ended up sitting at the bar but it was a fun atmosphere and we will definitely return.

    This place never ceases to amaze. We like to try new restaurants every weekend if we can. But when we have an event and need a great go -to restaurant, we always come here. It’s never a disappointment, it’s always excellent and the service is beyond compare. The manager here runs an excellent operation. Tightly run from the time you walk in to the time you leave. Danny is the best waiter in the valley and we ask for him every time. Could possibly praise this place enough to equal how much we love it.

    AMAZING restaurant. Everything from the food to the service to the ambiance was above par. We wanted a nice dinner and did not have a reservation. We went here and there was still some seating available. We chose to sit at the bar, which was pleasant. The food was incredible, exceeded expectation. We had Rockefeller oysters and the crab bread for an appetizer, both were delicious. The Chilean sea bass is some of the best I've had in Arizona! Are already looking forward to our next time here.

    High Tide was hands down our favorite restaurant on our family trip. We ordered several appetizers- including delicious Lobster Mac, oysters, seafood dishes, and the most AMAZING SHORT RIBS (There were 11 of us, so we really got to try a little bit of everything) This will always be an Arizona must-have now! The food, service, and establishment were superb. Absolutely amazing, Thank you!!

    Highly recommend to dine here at least once. The service and ambience is very good. The food was very tasty as well and prices were reasonable. The portion size are generous and anticipate some leftovers if you order appetizers.

    I give High Tide high praise! We ordered curbside pickup for Mother’s Day and we were not disappointed. The food was delicious and the service was excellent. We appreciated the little “thank you” card they included with our order. Such lovely people! I hope this restaurant can weather the COVID epidemic, and I encourage more folks to try this little gem. It’s well worth it. ?

    I have been waiting for the opportunity to bring my husband here for months. Daniel was our server for Friday lunch. He took great care of us! I eat no seafood, while my husband loves it any chance he gets. So, we decided it was a good day for a lunch date. My husband started with Oysters on the half shell and said they were great quality 👌 He then followed up with Chilean Sea Bass, asparagus and risotto. This was all accompanied with a nice Rye whiskey. I started off light with a side Caesar salad which truly hit the spot on a warm Phoenix afternoon! I opted for the Filet Mignon servedon a bed of "Yukon whipped potatoes" and I decided to upgrade my second side to the 'Baked Mac & cheese'. Accompanied with a vodka-cranberry garnished with chedries The prices were surprisingly very good for what I was expecting to pay for fresh and quality restaurant seafood.

    High tide seafood bar is a must visit for Arizona! Everything was very fresh and the atmosphere was perfect. We ordered the calamari the charcuterie board the king and enchiladas del Mar as we were celebrating a special occasion. it was literally the best calamari I have ever had. pricing was reasonable and we would definitely return again to try more items on the menu and some drinks. Our server could have done better as it seems she was paying more attention to hire tabs and not as much attention to our table.

    We had 5:15pm reservations on Friday night. Upon entering, We were quickly seated. Our Waitor Danny was super friendly and gave great suggestions! The Calamari was a hit at our table, I don't think a single person disagreed about it being so yummy! Maybe you're not feeling seafood and want the Filet Mignon instead? YES. You will not regret it. It melts in your mouth, and the glaze they put on top really is Chefs kiss. Or, maybe you're feeling a burger. The High Tide and The Surf and Turf Burger were both major comebacks ("I'd comeback just for this!") The portions of the sides were fairly generous! By the time we left around 6:30pm, it was becoming busy, as expected. We can't wait to come back and try other menu items!

    The waitress was awesome! Upbeat personality, gave great recommendations & was very attentive. The food was so delicious!! We started off with the fried calamari which was nice & crispy, and we ordered the seafood jambalaya & shrimp scampi for our entrees. Both were seriously so good we didnt have any left overs. Oh & the pasta is made in-house!! I will definitely be back next time Im in town.

    We went to High Tide for Happy Hour drinks and appetizers. This was our first visit since the pandemic hit. Both food and drinks were outstanding! We felt more than safe with social distancing in place.

  • 3/5 Debbie K. 3 years ago on Google
    Had dinner for first time and was a little disappointed. I had spicy seafood pasta and very bland. A lot of seafood in the dish but not much flavor. Hubby had fish and chips and enjoyed. They made us sit next to each other for distance from the next booth then seated the booth right behind us as usual so no sense there.??? Not sure if we would go again

  • 5/5 Rayna B. 3 years ago on Google
    I ate there last night. The food, service, price, everything was great!! I'm from south Louisiana so I got their gumbo to see if it was any good. I was so impressed. It was perfect! The roux was just right. I highly recommend this restaurant!

  • 3/5 Chris R. 3 years ago on Google
    Yum. Nice. Delicious.

  • 5/5 Phyllis R. 2 years ago on Google
    All of the 3 sauces I sampled were exquisite. The seafood is fresh and excellent. Samantha is the perfect example of a top notch server! The Manager, Paul, is available and extremely concerned about his patrons positive experience.

  • 5/5 Jessica G. 2 years ago on Google
    My husband and I tried this place for a much overdue date night and WOW are we glad we did! The atmosphere is reminiscent of coastal restaurants (only thing missing was the smell of the ocean), food was delicious (we ordered oysters on the half shell, crab cake, lobster bisque, spicy seafood pasta and ahi), wait staff was amazing and we will be repeat customers.

  • 5/5 Jennifer P. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome Food! The seabass is amazing and the fish fry breading is sooo good!!! Only thing I would like is a little sweeter tarter sauce it's too tangy or else it would be perfect! If you want bread you need to ask they won't just bring to the table. Definitely recommend this place!

  • 5/5 Karen N. 1 year ago on Google
    This is such a great restaurant! John our service was outstanding. He was so helpful and friendly. The food was so fresh and delicious. They bring it in fresh, daily. We ordered the seafood tower (substituted the oysters for more shrimp), the lobster mac N cheese, the wedge salad and chicken wings. The homemade hot sauce and cocktail sauce were really good. They even packed our leftovers on ice. This would be a great place for any special occasion.

    Hide Tide in Gilbert, Arizona is a very nice establishment. This was our first time going there and we were not disappointed. I made advanced reservations and were glad we did. We arrived for our 5:30p reservation and the restaurant was really busy. After being shown to our table, our server 'Megan', was quick to come and take our drink and appetizer order. Our drinks arrived with only a short wait. Appetizers followed about 7-10 minutes after. We ordered the "Chef's" charcuterie board and some Garlic Cheesy Bread. Both were excellent. Our main courses were the 1) Jumbo Scallops and 2) Spinach and Red Beet Salad with a large bowl of Clam Chowder. Both dishes were served hot and were very tasty. We tried the Bread Pudding for dessert. It was served with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. I expected more of a traditional bread pudding but didn't detect any raisins and the spices were lightly applied. All in all the dinner was great. The whole front team did a great job. Especially Megan.

    We decided to try this place before our axe throwing experience for couples date night . It was okay 🤷‍♀️ I tried the sea bass, and it was good . It took a very long time to get our dinner, though . The mixed drinks are very good and our waitress was very nice and we highly enjoyed her ! 😊

  • 5/5 Ken O. 1 year ago on Google
    Three of us had the Fish and Chips. Three large perfectly cooked pieces of fish...so moist! Sweet potato fries don't cost extra. Cole Slaw was really good...moist and sweet. Great portions too.

  • 5/5 Julie H. 6 months ago on Google
    What an amazing place to dine! The atmosphere was fun and exciting. The service was fantastic right from the start. Our server was pleasant, friendly, attentive and helpful. The food was super tasty and the portions and huge! We ordered appetizers and were almost too full to eat our giant meals. I highly recommend dining here and trying their amazing cuisine!

  • 3/5 John P. 6 months ago on Google
    Consistency on the food needs to get better (spicy seafood pasta) but a favorite..... I did not say it was bad, I only said that the consistency of this dish was not the same as prior visits! To be specific it was very soup like with a lot of sauce and the noodles were definitely overcooked. This is unlike the prior visits ....again the dish was good but it was inconsistent, it would be nice to receive the same dish each time and I understand that is very very tough to do this with the chefs that are available today. I did not even think of the consideration to call you and bother you again because of this but have edited this post. High tide will continue to be on our list of places to visit we enjoy the atmosphere and the food most every time!

  • 5/5 Jordan M. 8 months ago on Google
    First time patrons and we will be back! Always hear rave reviews and wanted to check it out for ourselves for date night. We ended up not making reservations and chose bar seating upon arrival and were accommodated without any issue. It was PERFECT. Jenn, our waitress, was phenomenal! And multiple others checked in on us constantly. Very service oriented...thank you! The food was absolutely delicious and your service is bar none. THIS IS HOW DINING SHOULD BE. Yes, pricey, but y'all get service and quality. This will be a place we add to our list of go-to places. Thank you for a great experience!

  • 3/5 Allison P. 8 months ago on Google
    Went for a special occasion celebration. Ordered cocktails on the happy hour special. They were nothing special. We've had better cocktails elsewhere. Had 2 appetizers...oysters ( were fresh with 3 sauces on the side) very pleased with this choice, cheesy bread ( nothing great, barely warm, not much flavor). We shared the 1lb of crab legs, overcooked and dry, and the key lime pie for dessert was delicious and a generous portion. The waiter was attentive to all aspects of our meal.

  • 5/5 Meaghann A. 8 months ago on Google
    We had the best time at High Tide!! Megan was our server and she was phenomenal! Looking forward to another visit again soon. We started with the calamari and it was really tender. The sauces were a great compliment to the breading on the calamari. For dinner, I got the Icelandic salmon - it was perfection! My mom got the king crab legs and they didn't skimp - she got very meaty and tasty crab legs. It was delicious! Grab an espresso martini! Or 2! Such a fun dinner!

    Never been here before and with this pandemic, we've decided to order take out. Asked the gal (Shay I think her name was) if the Louisiana Gumbo would fee 2 adults and a kid..she laughed and positively said "oh yes it is so big it will definitely be enough". Spent over $36 which included our appetizer and that entree is enough for just one adult. Even the rice that it came with was the size of my small hand. Called and spoke to the same gal and all she said was "sorry the kitchen is close so we can't even cook anymore food for you and I gave my opinion on the serving". Seriously... bad customer service.. wonder if it would be better dining in?M me wonder if they took advantage of this being a take out to serve this ridiculous portion?

    I Love This Place!! Freshest seafood in Arizona. And let's face it.. we Are in the Desert! These guys have been a staple between me and NYC when it come to freshness with seafood. Everyone is also pleasant and warm when ever we show up. Yesterday was national oyster day and those Oysters where phenomenal. ??????????

    We have been coming here for dinner for 5 plus years. Service is always great and their food is outstanding. Today we took a chance (post COID) and we were very impressed with the care they gave to ensure our safety. Please support them.

    Best place for seafood I've been so far in Gilbert! Everything was amazing, nice having the option of outdoor dining. Customer service was great and wow, did I mention the portion sizes, everything fresh and tastefully seasoned.

  • 5/5 Roy F. 3 years ago on Google
    Hide Tide is still the best place for seafood. They are practicing good hygiene for the virus with gloves and masks and sanitizing the menus. Also seating tables far apart. Everyone in my party enjoyed their meals.

  • 5/5 iron.saguaro3 3 years ago on Google

    Who would believe that hidden in a suburban shopping mall is a seafood Mecca filled with fresh and tasty seafood? From the giant king crab to the scallops everything was fresh and delicious. The martini was perfectly dirty as well. We’ll be back. To quote Arnold.

  • 5/5 Steve M. 4 years ago on Google
    Great time, pleasant atmosphere, good food and cocktails. Our server Dakota was super friendly and went over the top to make sure we had a great experience. I would definitely go back. We had the oysters to start, Chilean sea bass (which my wife said was absolutely amazing) And the king crab
