Stopped in for a drink and a quick bite. The food was excellent... chicken sandwich, coconut shrimp, and a fish sandwich. Not understanding that we don't have a blender here, but the frozen margarita from the machine was great. The server and hostess could be much better. Food runners were great. Btw: the french fries/chips are awesome!!

EPIC burritos! Big and tasty with tons of options for toppings! Homemade queso sauce is not to miss! Freshest seafood options around sourced from local fisherman. The owner, Bradley is a scallop and lobster fisherman by trade and has his fresh seafood in the market. Definitely a do not miss for lunch whether you’re looking for a burrito, poke bowl, fried fish sandwich or some of the freshest locally sourced seafood this is for you!

My husband and I were here to see a comedy show at The Blue Ocean Music Hall. Decided to have dinner at The Surfside prior to the show. We ordered cocktails, which were excellent. Ordered appetizers: Lobster Rangoon, NE Clam chowder, Coconut Shrimp. Main course: Fried Lobster, 3 Haddock Tacos. Sooooo let me tell you we could NOT EAT ALL THIS FOOD. We had leftover lunch the next day. I don’t want to not mention the fries. They were amazing. The service, food and atmosphere was beyond what we expected. On the weekends make a reservation. Watch the weather, and if it’s nice book a table Oceanside.

Tom AKA “Bill” was great - funny and great service; exponentially helpful in developing pseudonyms for an upcoming book. Lisa Love Experience, however, was mediocre. Warmly, Bridget & Marty

This place is amazing! We had lunch outside, with high tide it feels like you’re on a boat ! Food and service are great. Prices are reasonable. Do your self a favor and have lunch or dinner here at high tide. You will be amazed!

When you Visit North of Boston , Surfside Salisbury Beach is a must visit. You gotta checkout this Salisbury Beach Hot Spot With gazebos overlooking the ocean great views, entertainment, delicious food, and all the best Summer Beachside cocktails. SurfSide on Salisbury Beach is the place to be this Summer. They offer beach favorites like Lobsterrolls, coconut shrimp, fish and chips, And also a great steak frites. But there is nothing like their signature cocktails overlooking the beach and ocean
