The Tides Market

WOW! All caps. Food and service was out of this world. We had the happy hour oysters, blackened yellowtail, and the shrimp and crawfish pasta. Flavors were perfectly balanced. Seafood was very fresh. The amazing server Mike brought our two year old an entire coloring book. He was super personable and all around great. This is the kind of restaurant you can’t wait to come back and try everything off the menu.

If I could give this place 10 stars I would! This place is hands down my favorite restaurant in all of Pinellas, and I've brought a bunch of people here, every single one of them has fallen in love with it too. The blackened grouper sandwich is truly the best grouper sandwich in Tampa bay. I get it almost every time, if I am not getting the Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. And the oysters, I genuinely don't think there's anywhere else in Tampa Bay where you can get $1 cold water oysters that are up to the quality that the Tides offers.. That alone is worth the trip, but it's really the whole experience that keeps me coming back and wanting to bring more friends. And it's not just the restaurant side. Shopping their market is an experience in itself. I've brought home fish, steaks, ground beef, sauces, and so much more, all of it top quality. It's the kind of place where you come in for lunch and leave with dinner for the rest of the week too. Not to mention the recent announcement, hand crafted cocktails! The restaurant was already amazing with their beer and wine offerings, but now adding a full cocktail menu has really made it even better. The owners, Jon and MK, are two of the most amazing people you'll meet. You can feel how much they care about this place, that passion runs through everything. The staff is also incredible, the vibes are always great, and its just so much fun. Honestly, it really doesn't get better than The Tides. If you're in the area and haven't been, it's time to check it out.

Get up and go now if they are open. This place is absolutely wonderful. The hospitality is top notch and everyone is friendly. I took my parents out for Mother's Day lunch and it was well worth the drive. The Tides is a seafood market, restaurant, and store. When you enter there isn't a smell of seafood. The air is fresh and clean. When you are seated I suggest that you watch the orders that are coming to other tables before you decide. You will want to order everything. The food looks exactly like the pictures online. We ordered the trio dip, beet goat cheese honeycomb salad, shrimp poboy, grouper bite poboy, oyster poboy, and lemon creme brulee. Give me a moment, just the thought is making me drool. No complaints could ever be made. Everything is fresh, fresh, fresh. Once you're done you can meander around the shop or walk the street and enjoy other local shoppes. You won't regret this spot.

Loved the Tides! We specially wanted to come for their Happy Hour which is daily from 4-7. They feature discounted drinks and $1 Oysters! So we ended up getting a dozen of the Happy Hour oysters and they were really good!! Service was nice, friendly and upbeat. The food was fantastic and they had a ton of other options for dinner. This place is also a market so you can get some fish, oysters, or other goods to take home! Make sure to get here early or make a reservation!!

Even though a lil warm outside, there was the greatest breeze ever. Customer Service was great and management did a proper job of advocating for our bill. Jill was the greatest to explain all. I recommend this place...Jewel was the awesomeness at customer service, see u soon....
