Getting a second round took even longer. The food was overpriced and nothing spectacular for the price. The wine list was limited and extremely expensive. The sauce on the halibut was tasteless, thick and did nothing to enhance the well prepared fish. On the plus side, the fried oysters and the salads were good.

Very well done food. Somewhat traditional dishes and flavors but prepared excellently. read more Very well done food. Somewhat traditional dishes and flavors but prepared excellently.

My wife had the fillet and it was good but overcooked. If I had one suggestion it would be to offer more seafood options. I would have LOVED a seafood platter. Overall a nice experience.

Food was excellent, hot, and as ordered. Kitchen was a little slow, but server, Rose, did a good job with drinks, bread to ease the wait. read more Food was excellent, hot, and as ordered. Kitchen was a little slow, but server, Rose, did a good job with drinks, bread to ease the wait.

The view of Carter Creek and environs is simply gorgeous, especially as the sun sets. We enjoyed a delicious meal perfectly prepared halibut and a flavorful agnolotti. The rum cake dessert was underwhelming but the buttery rolls and lovely salads were very good. Wine list is extensive. Service was excellent. Ruth was a delight, personable and responsive. The Tides Inn is a pricey resort and their featured restaurant follows suit. For us it was a special treat and we loved every minute.
