Had a great time at Tims II - Jumbo blue crabs in the middle of December - WOW! Also a cup of crab soup was killer. Others in our party had the 18 oz porterhouse and the shrimp poboy. No complaints. Waitress was excellent and checked on us often.

The Porterhouse was great. The crabs were amazing especially for them to have the so late in the season! Waitress was excellent! Can't wait to come back!

We love Guy and his staff!! The food is always the best, service staff is awesome!! We always come by boat and got caught in a pretty windy situation. Guy recommended we pull our boat from the dock and take it to the Marina. Then he went to pick up our Husbands and brought them back to ride out the short storm. Then, he drove us all back to the Marina.
This is way beyond anyone’s expectation. He cares for his Locals and is just awesome. We love this place!

Sad excuse for a place of business. I've visited multiple times seeing if I'd be proven wrong, but to no avail. The food is decent, but overpriced for the quality and quantity. It's dirty throughout to the point that the sight of the inside nearly made me lose my appetite; so many bugs! Both dead and alive. It needs a serious renovation, it's practically falling apart. The mixed drinks were okay but too much ice and not big enough cups for the price of them. I will say both the bartenders and waiters/waitresses were lovely. All of whom I've had serve my family and I were

Janky little beach bar but serves everything you could want from an establishment like this. Food was great, drinks are good, and staff was friendly/courteous. Just wish you could dock closer instead of anchoring & taking the shuttle!

I can honestly say that I and my two friends had a poor dining experience at Tim's 2 in Fairview Beach. We waited awhile before the waitress came to our table but that was OK because we were there on a busy Saturday evening for dinner. Because it was so busy we decided to give the waitress our full order so it would save her some time from having to keep coming back. We ordered beer and steamed mussels as the appetizer. I ordered stuffed shrimp, coleslaw and French fries as my entree. The entrees arrived and were barely warm. My stuffed shrimp were very small with barely a teaspoon

We really liked the food. But our server was ridiculously inept. He was particularly bad on so many different aspects. I felt like we were on a hidden camera show to see how much silly stuff we could tolerate. He screwed up almost every aspect of the service.
We really like the Steamer Tray (2 pounds of crab legs, 1/2 pound shrimp, and hush puppies around $55). Price was right, each component was extremely good.
Side Salad at $5.50 was not good. It was just lettuce, cucumber, croutons, and dressing.
Bacon Cheeseburger was good.
I would love to tell you how good the raw oysters and crab cake

So as I sit here waiting on my food, I will write this review. My plate arrived completely cold, which means it sat on the counter forever. I sent it back and asked if it could be reheated, it has now been 25 minutes and no food. My friends are done eating and I still don't have a plate. Last time here.

My hubby and I came here the other day since it was nice outside and we wanted to see a beach. We drove 1.5 hours to get here and we had a fantastic time. Our server was great and super friendly. We got the steamed shrimp, hushpuppies and the smoked whiskey wings (a must get) and everything was very good. The prices are very reasonable and the view from the deck is great. The outdoor area was spread out so we were comfortable during this time of socially distancing.
We will definitely be back!

Hushpuppies were really good, as well as the clams. Your basic fried items. The drinks were really strong! I didn't like that the vegetables were in tiny containers, like five pieces in each one. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but I would for the view and drinks!

This is an excellent spot to just hang out and have some seafood. The crabs have so much meat inside them. I was surprised. I am very funny about my potato salad and beans but someone has showed them the way. I tell you if you are not satisfied Dottie is a God sent and will make it right

Some pics I took sitting out by the water enjoying a late lunch. The food and service was great. The fries and spice shrimp was my favorite. Watching these two kids play on that treasure chest was the best I felt like I was in a Mark Twain book

So we take our boat there and it's not super packed . The menu is simple enough. We order food and it takes about 1 hour for our dishes.... AWFUL DISORGANIZED SERVICE. Very slow very chaotic. Also they can't even make 2 pbj sandwiches!!! They gave us a pre made wrapped one from the grocery store!! Only One .

I really enjoyed the food and the ambiance of this restaurant. I went with friends and was acknowledge and served fast. The only things I didn't like much was the drink I ordered. I got the pina colada sorta drink and did not have much alcohol or taste to it. That was my only disappointment.

I've been here a few times, and stopped in on a whim while out riding around. At first, I was disappointed that there weren't any open tables inside, but the hostess offered me a table out on the deck, and it had plenty of shade. Almost immediately, the bartender/waitress popped up and greeted me, and knew what they had on tap and bottled without looking or asking. I got the fried fish sandwich, and some corn nuggets. The nuggets came first, and were amazing. Lots of flavor, not overdone. And the basket was overflowing!!! The sandwich came out next, and was delicious. Nice flaky cod,

Tim's Il experience for our group friends was incredible because of our server, Jacob! Jacob provided service with a smile. He was kind, professional and accommodating. Food was ok. If you go, ask for Jacob!

I've been coming to both Tim's locations for many years and had very few bad experiences. The food is great and the service is almost always stellar. If you're looking for a low-key, "local" spot, this is the place to go.
I'd recommend trying the crab dip, crab balls, steamed muscles, and hush puppies. In addition, this restaurant may seem off the beaten path, but it's a popular spot for locals and regulars. This place can get packed during the summer, especially over holidays.

This place has an amazing location- on top of the water! It's not fine dining, so if you're looking for exquisite dishes with a diverse menu, this isn't your place... BUT if you're looking for a chill spot on the water with a decent splattering of bar food, then look no further!

Everyone is friendly and the view is great. The best thing to do is eat simply; meaning eat their specialties off the menu and you'll have a good time.

The cheeseburger - staple item and hard to mess up. It was good and the person eating this enjoyed their meal.

We love going to Tim's because the atmosphere is awesome as well as the views. The food is really good but a little overpriced for what you get.

I wouldn't even give this restaurant a one star if it was possible. My family and I (6 of us in total) went to eat here for Father's Day, and we spent $200 on food that was worth $30 at most. Three of us ordered the broiled platter, each platter cost $30 and promised us an excellent array of oysters, crabcakes, shrimp and scallops. Our high expectations were immediately crumpled up and tossed over the dock when our food arrive and it was a) Lukewarm and b) minuscule. The lemon pepper seasoning was practically nonexistent. My sister ordered the seafood pasta, which ultimately showed up

$72 for two broiled dinners and two beers. Dinners consisted of crab cake (which was marginally ok) and FOUR!! Little baby oysters. I know, I should have sent them back; each oyster was about an inch long and just pitiful.

The sides? Glad you asked. Wife got about two tablespoons of baked beans right out of a can and hush puppies each just a little bigger than a marble.

I got my draft local beer in a Miller Lite glass. Should have just got a bottle.

Furniture is the plastic (and STICKY) stuff you buy at Walmart. BTW, menus were even sticky. There were so many clues, but we stuck it out hoping

If I could describe this place in 3 words? Missing genetic material.

Took about 10 minutes to get waters

Took about 20 minutes to get 1 drink delivered

Crab soup had flakes, nay, splinters of crab in it

Spoons given to us for said crab soup might as well have been from the just-finished-eating-their-soup table. We could scrape old food off one of the spoons and could re grease a squeaky door with the other. Asked for new spoons....waited...and waited....and then left.

With all due respect to the local population I would skip this place at all costs.
