Wish I could post a positive but can't do that with already two in a row negative experiences (went a week ago just for a drink).
This experience: drinks ordered by two of us had to go back, one had to go back three times to get it right. Then the drinks, at best, were just average. Service was absolutely horrible. Many customers were complaining about it, the lack of, then rude and inexperienced servers / bartenders. Food was so, so. One server totally ignored us and another group, acknowledging us then ignoring us after we waited for 45min-1 hr w/o service. We then found him chatting it up with other employees behind the bar (after we had to go and wait at the bar to get service).
Too bad, the original Turtle bar and Grill used to be awesome! They used to be friendly, have good service with awesome food / drinks. Maybe you can find your way back to the original, quality destination?
I will say the atmosphere was still great (even though changed), being more family friendly and the beach was better to pull up to if you're just visiting the bar and grill.
The prices are fair and comparable to other, specialty establishments.
Turtle Bar, if you just had decent service and adequate bartenders I would've given you 5 stars. Your location is phenomenal and a great destination for boaters. I don't think we'll be back though until (or if) we hear the service has improved.
