    We celebrated my mother‘s 86 birthday we were a group of eight. None of us had ever eaten here before the service was outstanding. .Unfortunately I don’t remember the servers name but she was one of the best we have had. We all had different types of seafood, and it was absolutely delicious.  Looking forward to coming back soon.

    Our server, Ashley, was slammed on Saturday night. She checked in with us and after a few minutes the hostess asked if our server had been by. We said yes, but she wasn’t able to take our order yet. A minute later the manager came over and brought water and confirmed Ashley was our server and she would be right with us. Ashley did come by, apologized for the delay, and was excellent! Seeing her hustle all the tables she had and the great teamwork by the whole staff, from hostess to manager, was amazing. Ashley was professional, knowledgeable, and fun! We had good wine, excellent food, in a wonderful atmosphere.

    Thank you, Michelle! We appreciate you recognizing Ashley and the teamwork from our entire staff. Saturday nights can get hectic, and it means a lot to hear that Ashley made such a great impression despite being busy. We’ll be sure to share your kind words with her and the team. We’re glad you enjoyed the food, wine, and atmosphere, and we look forward to having you back soon!

    We always love to visit High Tide. Always great service, usually really great food. This visit the rice and veggies were not hot enough, although the fish was perfect. The manager offered to replace the items, but we were almost done with the fish, so we opted for the creme' Brule cheesecake to go. Amazing! We will be back next week.
    High Tide - GilbertResponded on 28 October 2026
    Thank you, Theresa! We always appreciate your continued support and are glad you enjoyed the fish and our Crème Brûlée Cheesecake. I'm sorry the rice and vegetables weren't hot enough this visit. We appreciate you giving us the opportunity to make it right, and we're happy you enjoyed dessert. We look forward to seeing you again next week!

    As I have become so that I expect the food to be wonderful and consistently the same as I anticipate it will be they are true to form. Wonderfully cooked calamari and fresh, tasty raw oysters they we can't wait to devour. We know when we go the food will be excellent, the staff is caring, attentive and friendly. They remember us and we remember them. We bring new people in with us quite often and they love it as much as we do.
