| - Both Sunset Station and GVR have oyster bars, but Tides has a lot of menu items that the Oyster Bar at Sunset doesn't. While they both have the roasts and gumbo (house gumbo, spicy please), Tides has a bunch of sandwiches, fried and blackened items that Oyster Bar doesn't. Although Oyster Bar is closer to my house, the additional menu items mean I seek out Tides quite a lot.
The prices are very reasonable. For $13, for example, you get a packed full lobster roll, a lot of fries, and a side of cole slaw. The fries aren't seasoned well, so I ask for some Old Bay on the side.
The restaurant is large with plenty of seating, another difference between its counterpart at Sunset Station. Lots of TVs, and as others note, it's right near the sportsbook and the Paseo Verde garage entrance. Excellent location, and a very good meal.
