Stuffed tilapia
Pam G.

Searching for highly rated seafood restaurants in the area, this place comes up. Clearly a local favorite as we arrived at 3:30pm and the place was very busy. We were seated immediately and as we are led to our table, it is very noticeable that the napkins are a roll of paper towels hanging from a clothes hanger over each table. I am a very picky seafood eater so was disappointed that a lot of the dishes were served with crab and ended up with a chefs salad. Very tasty. It is obviously a local favorite so if your looking for seafood, I'd recommend.

Crabby patties so good and the sauce
Dee B.

It had been at least 2 years since I have been here. We use to love coming on Sundays. I got the salmon Oscar and it is still good. They have outdoor seating, big inside seating and good parking. It kind of has an old smell in there, but food and service is good.

Swordfish with green beans and side of shrimp
Rachel E.

This is a solid seafood place with very reasonable drink prices. My NA Chardonnay was only $4! Our server Chantell was amazing and not just because she complimented how nicely I cleaned off the oysters Rockafelllers! She was very attentive and friendly with our table. And she did very well with our custom orders. The food is decent. I split a swordfish blackened with my husband, and we also had green beans and a side of grilled ahrimp to go with my salad. The shrimp didn't taste as grilled as I was hoping, and was more buttery. But the swordfish was nice and flavorful. I also sampled some of my other guests entrees and they were tasty as well. My favorite was the cedar plank salmon which in hindsight I wish I would have gotten, but I'll know that for next time. I would recommend this place, especially if you're in the mood for some inexpensive drinks. Unfortunately I'm not much of a drinker, but it's good to see us NA folks don't get left behind.

shrimp burger with coleslaw and mashed sweet potatoes
Lauren S.

This was our first time visiting this local favorite spot. Something I noticed right away was the booths were a bit worn and I quickly sunk into the seat. Our waitress was very animated and attentive. We tried the hush puppies which were very bland. For entrees we got a shrimp burger which was tasty but not much shrimp on a big bun. The mashed sweet potato was not something I'd order again but the slaw was tasty. And blackened snapper with seasonal veg and red potatoes.

Our server Chantel took great care of us. Party of 5. 2 Lobster rolls 2 Scallop dishes 1 Grilled Grouper 1 Peel and eat shrimp We had a lovely back round table away from the noise of the restaurant which allowed our hearing impaired folks to enjoy conversations! The food- Overall we went with 4 stars The highlights were the Grilled Grouper was cooked perfectly and the grilled asparagus was nice and crispy not overcooked, the peel and eat shrimp was also very good however I did not taste the bay seasoning that was mentioned. Our entire party are New England transplants so the Lobster rolls are something we are as a rule particular about, we look for light mayo, almost non existent a grilled and buttered roll and a nice serving size. These were very heavy on the mayo,and a pretty small portion size, and it had lettuce and celery...Theroll was grilled nice and the flavor was on point however. Both scallop dishes were drowned in the butter sauce which was excessive and ended up being a detractor to the dish, more isn't always better,both of those agreed it was good enough to return but would try another menu item next visit. We had a good time, the service we received from Chantel was great we will return and I would rate this a "Safe Bet" prices are reasonable and the food is pretty good!

Island chicken
Kim S.

It was PACKED when we showed up (on a Thursday around 6pm). 99% of the customers were senior citizens so I was a bit concerned. However, the food was out of this world!! We waited about 30 minutes for our table and it was worth it. The lobster roll, coco lada shrimp, crab legs and island shrimp were all 10/10. Our waitress was Chantell and she was an absolute dream.

Mahi mahi with mango salsa, sweet potato mash, steamed vegetables.
Cynthia F.

I LOVE the fried coconut-crusted tilapia with the fantastic cranberry-horseradish sauce on the side. My new favorite. Sweet potato mash is delicious. Steamed green beans perfect, and I appreciate my server telling me I can request it without the added garlic butter.

Service was efficient and the food is tasty. I liked the shrimp and grits the best. I would give it 5 stars but the salmon was over cooked.

We walked in and were told to sit wherever we wanted, we chose the window seats. Hahahaha! I ordered the Locals Favorite and my guest ordered the Salmons Benedict we shared the Chicken and waffles. The service was great, our server was great too! We asked about real maple syrup and she actually tracked down a bottle, I couldn't believe it! ( Pictured) The Local Favorite was excellent! The crab cake was perfectly seasoned, the English muffin was toasted perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was also perfect. The cheesy grits were good as well! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. My guest also loved her meal, ( Salmon Benedict) the salmon was perfectly done without being dry, the eggs were a little beyond poached but that's okay. The home fried potatoes were golden brown and an excellent addition to the meal. The ambiance is super chill which is surprising considering how good the food is. The chicken and waffles were exceptional as well. The four chicken strips with tender, juicy and well seasoned placed on top of the golden brown waffle which was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The butter and maple syrup was butter made this waffle an 8/10.

I grew up in the Midwest, with a typical "meat and potatoes" diet. On the rare occasion that…read moreseafood was on the menu, it was typically a frozen variety like Groton's, or the occasional fish fry at the Elk's Club. That's changed since moving to the Gulf Coast of Florida, where the fish at the local restaurant today was probably swimming yesterday. My "go-to" seafood now is a grouper sandwich which I order blackened but NOT fried. I've sampled grouper sandwiches from many local dining establishments, but my favorite is from "Carvor's Fish House" A couple of important notes: 1) Carvor's is only open for LUNCH. Their hours vary, so you'll want to check the website, but they typically close at FIVE PM, with the last order accepted at FOUR PM. 2) Carvor's has NO inside dining The patio is tree-shaded with extra umbrellas but if it's really hot, you may be uncomfortable. 3) Carvor's has COUNTER SERVICE. You go inside, order your food and THEN go back outside and select a table. When your food is ready, a server will bring it to your table. 4) This is downtown Dunedin, and parking can occasionally be a challenge on Douglas Street, but FREE parking is available in the city parking garage across the street. Pictured is my "blackened grouper" sandwich. A refreshing change from the usual French fries is their homemade chilled tomato, cucumber and onion salad. Delish!

I've only been there twice. The first time I just had an appetiser which was really good…read more Unfortunately, I can't remember which one it was. The next time, we went for lunch and they were out of some things that we initially ordered, but we ended up with a heating plate of fried things that kind of felt like bar food. It is a cute spot and I would probably try it again. I just did not think it lived anywhere near up to the hype that most locals give it.

From the moment I saw the seafood case, everything looked ridiculously fresh, and that freshness carried straight onto the plate. The Tides is both a seafood market and restaurant, so you're surrounded by beautiful seafood and ingredients that actually look like they belong there. Then I noticed the MICHELIN plaque outside the building and thought, wait a minute... THIS place has Michelin recognition? Apparently, yes! The Tides has earned a place in the MICHELIN Guide, which suddenly made a whole lot of sense after tasting the food. That salmon was seriously some of the best I've ever had. Fresh, beautifully prepared and so clean tasting that it didn't need a bunch of heavy sauces or nonsense piled on top. It felt like one of those rare meals that is indulgent because it's delicious, but you also walk away thinking, I actually ate something good for me. The Tides was a genuine surprise, and now I'm wondering how many other little gems I've been driving right past without knowing they were there.

The fried shrimp basket was good but the fish and chips really didnt have any taste to the cod. The slaw and potatoes were good but their food reminds me of the tourist trap seefood restaurants by the beach. Chefs should start tasting their own food to know if it tastes good or not or maybe they were raised in a bland household but someone needs to understand taste and seasoning.

They started with bread, and I asked for olive oil instead of butter, which they accommodated. I ordered both the cauliflower steak and the vegan steak. The cauliflower steak seemed like it was aiming for an Indian-inspired flavor, but it missed the mark for me. The vegan steak had a good texture, but it was under-seasoned and tasted pretty plain. At around $45, I felt it was overpriced for what it was. The highlight of the evening was definitely the view and, even more importantly, the waitress. She was absolutely amazing--10 out of 10! She was attentive, friendly, and made sure I was happy with my meal throughout the evening. I'm really glad they offer vegan options--that's a great first step. The next step is making those dishes as flavorful and memorable as the rest of the dining experience.

It looks attractive from the outside, but not a good experience on the inside. The waiter was overcast, serving tables inside and outside the restaurant.

We inquired about sushi and the waiter said they have had several chefs the last few years so don't trust the online menu. Sushi was marginal at best We ordered steaks for entrees. They honestly had a funky taste from some oils they put on them. Their wine list was marginal at best and the one glass I wanted they didn't have A total disappointment. Not ever worth the pictures

My mashed potatoes were also good (average). Overall, I was satisfied with my meal but not wow-ed by it. I'd recommend checking this place out and deciding for yourself ;)
