    Last day of vacation and again just driving around seeing the sites. Susan was a great server!…read more Kept it simple today. I had the Nikki salad. Husband had the clam chowder and haddock sandwich with onion rings. The food was great and exactly what we were looking for. The clam chowder was one of my favorites from all we sampled this trip. The addition of dill put it over the top! Seems to be another hot spot in Swampscott. Very busy place and a lot of locals. Glad we found it!!

    Good food. Dishonest pricing…read more I dined here yesterday, July the 4th. I ordered the fish-and-chip and a beer, and asked about substitutions for the fries. Among the many options presented, I chose the Caesar salad. The total for this meal? $49! (!!) The fish was listed on the menu as "market price." I neglected to ask what the price of roughly six ounces of fried white fish was at the "market" but discovered when the check came that it's $34. I'm not a fine-diner, but I'm pretty sure that 34 bucks typically gets you a much nicer dish at a much nicer restaurant. Charging that much for fish and chips is frankly dishonorable...but I guess it's part-and-parcel of the "get while the getting's good" ethic driving the affordability crisis in this country. Next, to the salad: I was charged $5 for the substitution, though the server did not warn me about this upcharge. Personally, I think it's understood when you ask about substitutions, that you are asking about FREE substitutions. If there's an incremental charge to substitute, say, a potato for french fries (I'm sure there is at Dockside, and I'd guess it's larger than it shuld be), it's incumbent on the server to declare it. Otherwise, what makes it a "substitution?" To summarize: nice enough place, greedy owners, OK but ultimately deficient service. Eat here if you want to spend $55 or so on an acceptable dinner that should cost 30 percent less.

    We've been coming to tides (formerly dockside) for 26 years now! Having left Boston for the last…read more8.5 years, came back with kids to reminisce and eat fried clams which don't exist outside New England! The clam chowder, clams, lobster roll still great. Ordered prime rib for first time and that was awesome as well. Sat on their new inside porch with beautiful view of nahant beach. Our server was super friendly, and very busy. Got a little attitude from another server when we asked for water. But there's a reason tides is in our family rotation!

    There weren't many places to eat by the time we were almost at our airbnb in Nahant, so we chose…read moreTides. I was riding the wave of starting a four-day vacation and hopeful, but I should have read reviews of Tides more closely. The staff was what appeared to be older high-school and younger college students who all looked and spoke like they would rather be anywhere but where they were. The seafood platter was OK. My friend and I split it, not realizing that when we replied to "Do you want the clams with that?" that there would be a market-price upcharge. I ordered a draft Blue Moon which tasted...funny. Not like it should, and not like one I've ever had before. The view of the beach from the deck was nice and the umbrella at our table kept us in the shade; those are the two stars in my review.
