We were seated quickly but then had to wait a long time for the bartender to take our order. The punch bowl we ordered was a good size but the standard straws were too short, making it awkward to reach. The appetizers were good but the entrees were just okay. Overall, the service was unorganized and slow. We won't be returning.

We did not keep our reservation because they called and said the kitchen would be closed when we should arrive at pm. I wish we would have had the opportunity to try it but I can't actually give a rating.

We were a party of 12 and ordered several different appetizers and entrees and no one liked their food. Nachos were fine. Pork was undercooked. Coconut shrimp dry and bland. Fish tacos tasted bad, shrimp tacos were ok, nothing special.

We waited 20 minutes for our cocktails to arrive after complaining. The AC was blowing on my wife, she was freezing, and we asked for it to be turned down or shut off. Waitress said it would be turned off. High Tides came highly regarded but I would probably only return with a couple of guys on motorcycles for a refreshment or two..but not for a romantic dinner.
