I've been here for drinks once and dinner two times now. Very charming.Ambiance - cozy yet upscale. Feels appropriate for a bar/restaurant within a classy and classic historic hotel in a historic town.Service - excellent, friendly, and fast. Bar service is exceptional and they make great cocktails.Food - everything has been well prepared. -I am, like many Marylanders, particular about my crab cakes. These are done very well. Not too much filling, and clearly uses lump crab meat (in part if not totally). I would prefer more Chesapeake seasoning salt within the cake. Worth trying.-the snapping turtle soup was very tasty. A true treat and a must have.-cream of crab soup is great. Lump crab meat and well seasoned. Worth trying.-the maple bacon roasted Brussel sprouts are fantastic. Order-able as a side dish, and a must have.-the mashed potatoes with the crab cake were decent but not great. Order-able as a side, but I would skip.-the scallops were nicely seared. Cooked perfectly; not rubbery or dry. Worth trying.-the risotto with the scallops was good. not order-able as a side dish. Worth trying-the brownie sundae is amazing. The brownie edges were a bit hard and chewy for my tastes but the center was perfection. It's possible my piece got a bit overcooked. Ice cream and toppings were generously portioned. Definitely worth a try.Overall the price is high but the quality and quantity are excellent. Absolutely worth a splurge.

Five star for the service. Food was alright. Fresh complementary bread and butter was good. My toddler liked the bread. I had the tuna poke bowl for my entree. It was light and refreshing, the tuna was fresh and tasted good. My husband had ribeye steak, he ordered medium and he said it was close to well done.. so he wasn't too excited but the sauce was good, came with a half baked potato which tasted good. The drinks were pretty good. My Sangria tasted good. It's a busy place, we went on Saturday, walk in wasn't available, it was packed even though we were guests in the hotel. So we reserved for Sunday. Recommend reserving a table if you're planning to go.

This was my first time eating at Hunters Tavern. We ate inside, although they also had outside seating on the patio. It is an attractive restaurant in the Tidewater Inn. I ordered the Snapping Turtle soup, just to try something different. It was just ok, but I would not get it again. There were three pieces of hard shell in my soup, and the strong flavoring masked any taste of the meat. I also ordered the grilled chicken cobb salad, which was fine but not memorable. Others in our party had steak & frites, a steak salad, and a wedge salad--all ok to good. The shared crab dip appetizer was the best part, that and the chocolate brownie sundae dessert.

Good service food was outstanding. First time I've seen catfish as a fish and chips and I loved it! Seasoned well. Fries were perfect. Unfortunately a fly flew in my beer at the end of my meal:(

Took my parents there before a concert at the Avalon. The food was ok, the drinks (I had an Olde Fashioned, my parents had Manhattan's) were really bad. The restaurant bartender didn't really understand how to make either. My stepmother went to the bar and had a replacement made that she said was quite good. The waiter was very young and wasn't the best but he was still learning so that was to be expected. We probably wouldn't go back. This was the second time we'd been in the last few years and it definitely wasn't as good as the first time. Too bad, they may have just had an off day.

My usual pre show (Avalon) dinner. The special was rockfish. It was served stripes up with a nice medley of asparagus, baby potatoes, lump crab. We also had the fried green tomatoes with crab lump. Service is always good. The Tidewater has an ambiance that is. Elegant old hotel and upscale but classic local eatery.

I've always had great experiences, but I took my girlfriend out here last night and it was just ok. Took about 20 minutes from the time we sat down to be waited on and put in a drink order. I got the snapper as my entree, which was served with "jambalaya" which was just bland rice with small bits of crawfish and sausage. The oysters and fried green tomato app were very good, though.

Local Easton historic Inn with a full service restaurant on the first floor with an extensive wine selection. The service was friendly and on point. The ambiance enhanced the experience which runs from business casual to more formal. The food is delicious and elegantly served.
