   The restaurant was very loud inside, very hard to carry on a conversation with our table. The food was not worth the price. Not much flavor, it did not WOW us at all. Will not be back.

   Not our first time here and as always the food was great. The only problem was the crab meat on top of the fish had lots of shell left in it. Amanda our server was fantastic. We will definitely be back.

   Laura waited on our 2 tables with 12 of us. The service was great and she was amazing & attentive. The crab cakes were yummy and the blackened red snapper was delicious. Also we enjoyed the creme Brule cheesecake!

   We had an amazing time and experience! Petey was our server and was very welcoming, kind + knowledgeable about the menu. We had oysters, the catch of the day (red snapper with crab) and asparagus which was absolutely delicious and seafood pasta. I requested a cucumber mocktail and Petey was able to have the bartender craft a delicious drink. Amazing experience overall! We really appreciate Petey’s amazing energy that contributed to a wonderful experience.

    Reservation was for 5, they put us ar a table for 4. Food was slow. One meal was served 29 minutes after everyone else. Potatoes were horrible. Rib-eye was amazing. Great service. Server was absolutely the best.

    We thought the food was amazing and the service was excellent. The menu had new and different choices from the normal Port A Restaurants which was refreshing. They are located on a main road in Port A so if you are looking for a water view you would need to choose a different restaurant. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and we will go back. Just make sure you make a reservation ahead of time.

    We had a great date night at Tortuga’s! When we got there we were seated outside with a few rowdy tables, and the hostess and server were so apologetic. Once those groups left, the noise level went down immensely and it was perfect sitting out on the patio. We enjoyed the poke nachos to start- so delicious! It came on the recommendation of our server and we loved them. Fresh tuna, crisp wontons, sweet pineapple salsa and spicy jalapeños- perfect with a chilled Pinot Grigio! For our entrees, we got the redfish ponchartrain (another recommendation!) and the charbroiled choice of the day (I forgot to even ask what it was, some type of white fish). Both were flavorful and delicious. The redfish had a yummy creole sauce. We were tempted to find a restaurant on the water but above all wanted delicious seafood. Tortuga’s was a great choice!

    Worst customer service from there hostess that was working Wednesday night. We have made it a tradition to eat here at least one time during our visits to the island. Our family made a reservation via OpenTable. We verified if they were pet friendly, as we brought our mini Golden-doodle with us on this family trip. When we showed up for our reservation, I notified the hostess of our fur baby. She immediately became rude and said they could not accommodate our family due to no tables available outside. She did not try to accommodate outside seating or even offer to add us to the wait list. The lack of help to redeem the situation, paired with a rude attitude, did not help make a positive experience. It’s unfortunate how the lack of decent customer service can change our mindset to never visit this restaurant again. We headed to TroutStreet bar & Grill, where they had the sweetest customer service, loved on our fur baby and turned our frowns into smiles. We will be removing Tortuga from our places to visit when we’re in town and keep to our Trout St., Grill and other local restaurants.

    We always enjoy Tortuga’s after a long day at the beach. The best iced tea really quenches my thirst and the Redfish Ponchatrain is my go to. My husband always enjoys the crab crusted catch of the day. Really, you can’t go wrong with anything on the menu

    Biggest issues - service and food quality for the price. I accidentally spilled my margarita and the waitress just handed me a napkin. Offered no help or assistance to clean it up. Then brought me a new margarita without asking and charged me for it. She was also not very personable or attentive. Food was mediocre at best. My son’s $54 steak was way overcooked as well as my father’s shrimp dish. Salads were not served very cold. Needless to say, we won’t be back.

    We dined at Tortuga's on a busy Saturday night. Started with the crab cake and poke nachos which were both fantastic. Unfortunately, the entrees were not as good as the apps. The snapper was beyond over cooked, the fried shrimp was not fried properly so the batter was rock hard and slid of the meat, the cream sauce on the pasta acadiana was watery and tasted like eating a spoonful of oregano. We did let our waitress know and she let the manager know, he came over and we gave him our feedback as well.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at Tortuga Grill! I read the reviews prior to making the reservation, and the reviewers who gave fewer than 4 stars usually were critical of the service. We had totally the opposite experience! Even though it was a packed Saturday night at the height of tourist season, the service was excellent. We had the nicest (female) server and I’m sorry I didn’t get her name. Everything was brought timely and in the right order. The manager came by at one point to make sure all was okay. And our food was delicious. I’d also like to say that the food from the kids’ menu was great - way above what’s usually offered.

    Nice place with good food, but you MUST make a reservation. Due to the ferry wait time, I had to update my reservation time several times. We walked right in and sat down. A couple of nights earlier, we saw the restaurant and found that without a reservation, there was no table.

    There were back to back bachelorette parties in the restaurant that night that really heighten the noise level that night. Not the norm for this place. Typically the place is pretty chill with your average amount of noise.

    The food is always good, when you make a reservation, you expect some level of service. The waiter was not attentive at all, drinks took a long time to arrive and they sat down empty for long periods of time, he walked pass in front of us numerous times and not once he asked if we were ok or needed something. When I asked the waiter about why the service was so poor he became defensive and seem clearly upset, he became even less attentive, although we approach it very politely.

    We went for our Anniversary dinner. Nothing special was done for us. Seemed like waitress was in a hurry Heard several times on drinks (Tea) that they were out before closing time. The price list on open table and the price list at the restaurant do not match. The 16oz steak is much higher than open table

    A definite stop if you go to Port A! We enjoyed the Shrimp and Grits but by far one of the best dishes we've eaten was the Coconut Curry Shrimp. It was a culinary experience. The flavors were amazing ,especially when each bite included the pesto sauce. Don't leave without eating the Spice cake, served warm with cinnamon whipped cream. Service was impeccable. I recommend making reservations.
