Why Travelers Love The Tides
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
A good friend recommended this as a great restaurant with great fresh food, service and views. He wasn't wrong. We booked this for Sunday lunch. From the moment we arrived we were treated so well. Staff were attentive, just the right level of service. Food was exquisite. It was a special afternoon and they certainly made it special. 2 courses for $135 3 courses for $165 and a free glass of sangria. A real treat. They had live music playing, but just at the right level to enjoy it and create a wonderful atmosphere. Decor and ambience was spot on. Awesome deliciousness with a view. The 🌊 waves were splashing against the rocks at night. It was a birthday celebration dinner. Drinks were on point. Service was 5 stars ⭐️. Valet was 5 star ⭐️ . The vibes of the atmosphere were perfect. This is what fine dining is about! Food that blows your mind that you have 10000s of questions in mind about the chef. The creative explosion of taste and art on a plate, amazing! Portion sizes that once you get 3 courses you are full. The service is impeccable from valet to host to servers. The drinks are amazing. The setting is literally magically and the A/C room option! 10/10 Tides is my favorite fine dining restaurant in Barbados! Thank you for blowing my mind year after year Tides!

This place is truly amazing. We sat near the ocean for dinner and wouldn’t have it any other way. From the appetizers to the dessert, we truly enjoyed Tides. The Bajan fruit punch was also fantastic!! If you are looking for a place to celebrate a birthday or even a dinner date, this is the place to be!

The whole experience was phenomenal. The food. The service. The ambiance. I tried the fish curry dish and it was hands down the best curry I’ve ever had. It was served in a fresh coconut. The food tasted so fresh and had flavor bursting with every bite. Our server Jeran was so kind and generous. The manager also came to check on us too. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone visiting the island.
