take out dinner for my wife and I. Blackened grouper tocos were excellent. My wife had a 6 oz filet that was surprisingly good for a primarily seafood restaurant. total cost was $50 a great value.

Really enjoyed eating here at the Turtles Restaurant. I actually ate here twice while here in Siesta Key and was impressed both times. I really liked the stuffed shrimp, I’d never had anything like it before. The second time I had the fish tacos with blackened grouper. I have to say that was my favorite. I also had a Key Lime Colada. I enjoyed it so much I had to have two. Lastly I really liked the location by the bay and the views from the patio.
