Grand opening celebration this Saturday at High Tide Social House
High Tide Social House has been open for a little over three months, but it’s been three and a half years in the making.
There will be a grand opening celebration Saturday, July 29, with specials all day, live music and more.
Owners Chris and Mary Beth Keslinger, who also own Lobster Lady Seafood, were thinking about trying something new. They were approached by the owner of the Westin Cape Coral Resort at Marina Village about opening a restaurant at Tarpon Point.
“And everything just transpired,” said Mary Beth Keslinger. “It was the perfect opportunity at the perfect time and perfect location.”
So far, Keslinger says the reaction from the community has been amazing.
“We’ve had a lot of support, especially within Tarpon Point,” she said.
Located at 6095 Silver King Blvd., next to the marina, the open-air waterfront restaurant features a wrap-around porch and great views of the marina.
Keslinger described the décor inside the dining room as coastal chic while the bar area lends itself more to an island theme.
The menu is also very eclectic and complements those two themes well.
“Our chef is Venezuelan and I’m from the South,” Keslinger said. “I like to put a southern twist on some of the entrees.”
Mouthwatering options include things like prime rib or a Philly cheese steak sandwich, other pressed sandwich options, fresh salads and fresh-from-scratch dinners.
One of Keslinger’s favorites is the NOLA BBQ shrimp, High Tide’s take on New Orleans barbecue. Diners can’t go wrong with a wood-fired pizza, either.
“The Philly cheese steak sandwich is off the chain,” she said. “The angus prime rib is shaved, slow roasted and seasoned.”
There are also weekly chef’s specials.
But regardless of what you order, you can’t beat a variety of great food and drinks paired with a fresh, fun, waterfront vibe.
