Three of us met for lunch there today and had a perfect experience. I got the Yardbird, 1/4 fried chicken (I chose white meat) and it was some of the best fried chicken I have had in recent memory. It came with collard greens and mashed potatoes, both of which were great, although the potatoes were a bit dry. A friend got chicken and waffle with same fried chicken on a good looking waffle. The other got the bacon-cheeseburger with ground and braised beef. It looked totally awesome with hand cut fries. All the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. Our server was attentive and checked on us a couple of times without being intrusive. I would strongly recommend this restauarant!

I always enjoy Field & Tides. Today, I introduced a friend to the restaurant. We were there for lunch and ordered the Brussels sprouts & fried oysters for our first course. Our main consisted of the jerk sandwich and the beet salad. Both were delicious and my friend now wants to introduce her hubby to the place. Thanks F&T!!!!
