The Tiny Turtle Reviews
We were greeted with warm smiles into a beautifully designed restaurant that left us wanting. Up to date menus, decent prices and food that will blow your mind!!!
Very poor service today . Very disappointed being on vacation . Food was good but waitress took away from experience
Normally I love this place but unfortunately we had the worst waitress ever . There were no clean booths when we set patiently and waited on it to be cleaned , she told us she couldn’t clean it with us there . We offered to get up while she cleaned up and she just got frustrated . It was evident that she didn’t want to wait to wait on us . I eat there twice a month so I’ll assume this is just a bad server . I don’t typically write bad reviews but I’ve always never walked...read full review

The Tiny Turtle offers a variety of Caribbean-inspired dishes, including appetizers like guava and cream cheese empanadas and beef empanadas. For lunch, the brunch menu is available, but guests can also opt for the regular menu, which provides a wider selection of options. The restaurant is known for its quality food and friendly service, with dishes like the Sofrito burrito with shrimp and the Cuban sandwich with plantain as popular choices. Many visitors describe the food as delicious and flavorful, often praising the Cuban sandwich as one of the best they've ever had. The restaurant feels very welcoming, with staff who go the distance to make guests feel like family. It’s a great spot for family outings or quick bites with friends, and it’s especially recommended for those within four hours of the location. The dessert menu is also a highlight, with Key Lime Pie being a favorite. While the food is highly praised, some customers wish there were more options like coconut shrimp, and note that service can sometimes be a bit overwhelmed, leading to forgotten condiments and additional charges. The atmosphere has a tropical turtle vibe, and the building is nice and clean. Inside seating offers a casual view of tourists wandering, and there is a back patio for more relaxed dining. The drink menu includes many options, from non-alcoholic beverages to margaritas, adding to the casual and fun atmosphere. The vibe is cool and relaxed, perfect for those looking for a unique experience after a beach trip. Overall, The Tiny Turtle is a beloved place known for its quality Caribbean-inspired dishes, friendly atmosphere, and enjoyable drinks.
