This review is based upon dining here about six times during the course of the last year, most recently on 7/19/16 and 7/21/16:
The Tides Seafood & Ocean Bar serves a wide variety of Sushi and Special Rolls, several seafood stews, raw Clams and Oysters and, indeed, as one reviewer pointed out, even steak.
While I stayed at Green Valley Ranch for the first time last week I always play video poker there when I visit Vegas and have generally eaten at Tides during the past several visits.
On those prior visits, I have been thoroughly impressed by delicious seafood stews such as the Pan Roast. It has been flavorful, moist and loaded with seafood. I would not hesitate to order the Gumbo or Cioppino in the future based upon how much I've enjoyed the Pan Roast.
On 7/19/16 I lunched here. My female server was terrific. She was polite and conscientious, checking back several times to see if I needed anything. The nice manager(?)n in chef garb chatted me up on both visits when he noticed my Yankee cap, since he told me he was a big fan and a Bronx emigree.
On my first visit(7/19), I chose the Linguine with White Clam Sauce. Although it was a nice-sized portion with a fair amount of clams, I did not care for the sauce, which seemed more like a roux, than a hearty olive oil-based sauce which I prefer. My Gordon Biersch Pilsner, however, was delicious, cold and fabulous.
On my second visit (7/21), I chose the Jambalaya. It was offered as a special for the first time. I loved it. It was laced with an ample amount of chicken, shrimp and andouille sausage. I liked that it was seasoned modestly so that I could adjust the heat as I like with Tabasco.....and I like it hot. I washed it down with another delicious Gordon.
I look forward to dining at this restaurant again.
