King Tide Fish & Shell, led by Executive Chef Alexander Diestra, is a riverfront seafood restaurant and bar inspired by the laid-back fishing lodges of family vacations gone by. With sparkling waterfront views of the Willamette, a welcoming energy and a menu that ranges from no-fuss to fancy, here at King Tide we serve fresh, inventive seafood dishes with local ingredients that are uniquely Portland.There aren't many places that command the vantage point we enjoy here at King Tide, so we like to make sure it lives up to Portland. We do that with a blend of the traditional and the non, the comfortable and the slightly twisted, the satisfying food and the swinging drink.As we like to say, King Tide is where food & drink & people always complement each other, and everything goes with the view.

Our table for the six of us seated eight so we had plenty of room since the space for chairs against the divider is a bit tight. Our table was ready within a minute of our checking in for our reservation. Our server promptly took our drink order and came back for our menu selections. Our appetizer arrived a bit late but no worries because we enjoyed a liesurely meal and did not feel rushed to make room for other guests. As usual, the view was terrific; nice, cloudy January afternoon.
