   My family and I had the best experience at Tidal. What a cute, quaint and peaceful Christmas Buffett dinner. The staff were very attentive and kind. They took the time to talk to us and despite it being a Buffett they offered to get us food items. We were there for almost 3 hours and it sure did not feel like it. The food was amazing, great seafood and even picky eaters were thrilled with the options. We sat outside at sunset taking in the beautiful views. Bartender even created a special drink for me. I try to take my dad to a new Christmas Buffett dinner every year ( we are local) we’ve been to about 10 different places, and the tidal hands down was bar far the best experience we’ve had. I will 100 percent go back.

   Food was very standard. Nothing special to get the ratings it does.

   Food was outstanding. Experienced the Iberico pork. Started with the venison tartar which was very delicate and mild, not gamy at all. The baba ghanoush and pork belly were also amazing. One of our guests had a flatbread which was a classic well made neapolitan pizza. Bronzino was also well prepared and flavorful. Pumpkin soufflé had a great texture but I think would be better with less clove, but fantastic and well made. Noise level was bit loud but we managed. Thanks for a great experience Herd & Wood!

   Beautiful location right on the side of Mission Bay in the setting sun. We took our powerboat here, launched from De Anza and motored round to the restaurant and moored against the Action Sports pier. Had a lovely dinner and then headed back in the dark. Great date night!

   They were out of one of our meal choices, and it was only 6:00 p.m., so that was a bummer. Also, the steak was overdone and very gristly, but hey, it IS a seafood restaurant! But everyone loved their seafood, especially the salmon, which was SUPERB! Overall I'd give it 4.5 stars.

    Esteban our server and the bartender Aaron were super accommodating and made a nice evening for my girlfriend’s birthday. Service and food were top notch. Highly recommend!
