Low Tide Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Santa Cruz

We visited this new restaurant inside the La Bahia Resort & Spa. We showed up without a reservation around 6pm on a Wednesday - and the place was packed! They offered us to sit outside or at the bar since we didn't have a reservation. We opted to sit at the bar since it was getting cold outside. The first thing we noticed was just how nice the decor was. It was also really busy and we watched the bartenders hustle to keep up. We ordered two drinks (beer and old fashioned), an appetizer (chicken wings), pizza (chicken and fig) and dessert (chocolate raspberry tart.) It was all really delicious and wonderfully presented. We were impressed. This placed is priced accordingly too - so don't expect to get out cheap. Our one critique was the slow service. We were not in a hurry at all and it was nice to sit and relax - but it was pretty clear they were working really hard. As a new business we appreciated they just opened and were trying to work out their groove. Even the managers were trying to help out as things got busier. We didn't knock off any stars because they were working extra hard - even if we had to wait a while to get our check. As locals, we plan to add this to our list to go back to - as we really enjoyed it. Good luck to this...

For the price you pay, I would have...

Very excited to have La Bahia open in town. Excited to enjoy a great dinner with friends and great views and atmosphere. Ordered the pasta dish, I did not enjoy it very much, flavors were not favorable, I was very disappointed. My husband ordered the burger and not what we expected. How can you go wrong with a burger. I hope that food improves, we would like to go back but until food improves I am...
