Tidal Raves Seafood Grill
Reviews
My now wife and I were engaged at Tidal Raves last year and the staff made it a wonderful experience. They gave us a great view table, when signaled brought my flowers to the table, announced something special was happening and then played my now wife's favorite song Marry me over the music system. With great food,view and staff it was the perfect evening and I would recommend the restaurant to anyone any time.
Yesterday, (9/20/14), we went to Tidal Raves instead of our tried & true favorite restaurant in Depoe Bay. While the staff was very, very kind, they seemed almost short-handed & almost stressed. Our appetizers came out (after about 30 - 40mins after we ordered them), and maybe 5 mins after that, our dinner plates came out. Upon getting our plates, we were genuinely excited. We had heard so many good things about the food. But sadly upon tasting our food, our excitement turned to disappointment. Much to our dismay, the food was incredibly bland. Very, very bland. In particular their beer battered and tempora seafood. It was almost flavorless. It tasted like fresh but unseasoned seafood fried in grease. Worst part: We had a friend fly in & wanted to take him somewhere exciting and new (beyond the typical family style chowder and fried sea restaurant). Pros: Beautiful view. Kind staff. Very clean & comfortable. Very fresh food. Good portion sizes. Cons: Expensive'ish. Bland.
A destination spot - worthy of a long detour. Fresh, original, and well-crafted menu. Friendly and helpful staff. Excellent food and bar. The prices are very reasonable, especially considering the fine ocean view. Reservations are a must during the summer and on weekends. Tidal Raves is popular for a reason.
Stopped by for lunch, due to a yelp search. Wow! We were so very pleased. The service was great. the food was over the top. A great value. We had the Chippino and the special of the day which was pasta, shrimp, clams and basil cream sauce for $11.00. amazing. On top of that an amazing view! I will always stop by here on the way thru!
KUDOS TO ALL OF YOU AT TIDAL RAVES!!!! The restaurant deserves many 'RAVES' and this is one of them!!!! We were visiting a friend in Lincoln City and decided to take a drive. We came upon Tidal Raves and had a few appetizers. The view was as spectacular as our friend's view from his deck and the ambience was warm and ocean like! The Seahawk Bread was beyond our wildest dreams!! The oysters and crab cakes were also delightful. The Cinnamon Tequila Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate was UNBELIEVABLE!!! My husband had the Cucumber Gin Gimlet which was very well balanced. The quality of both the food and drinks were well worth the cost which is quite reasonable. If were weren't expected elsewhere we would have consumed a luncheon dish. This is a must for all. We will definitely make this one of our eateries when we return to the area.
