I have to agree that service here is non-existant. My friend and I went for a late lunch 3 P.M. We were one of three couples seated and yet the service was awful. I had to ask the waitress twice to fill my glass only to look over and see her sitting with another couple chatting. I finally held up my glass and said "please!!" Only then did I get my water.
The pan roast was nothing more than seafood stew and not nearly as good as the one my husband and I used to love at the Palms a few years ago.
The Caesar salad was good, cold, and plentiful.
The tile floor and walls makes it very noisy (cooks chatting, music, etc. )so conversation was difficult even though the place was empty.
To it's credit, Tides is very clean, bright and well maintained.
Would we go back again? No. Too many other good seafood places.
