Tipsy Turtle Restaurant Bar

The food was decent; my kids and I enjoyed our meals! However, my wife and mother-in-law were disappointed with their dishes. The staff attempted to make it right, but unfortunately, they weren't successful. On a positive note, the drinks were excellent! I would recommend avoiding the Conch Fritters, though, as they were served frozen in the middle, which made my wife feel nauseous. Overall, the food was fair, the drinks were good, and the atmosphere was fun. It's worth a visit, but just don’t have high expectations. Also, the service here was quite good!

This is an excellent place for delicious food and drinks. Everything we had was fantastic, and the kids are still raving about it. Every staff member we encountered was incredibly friendly. We will definitely return on our next visit to Sanibel!

For drinks, we ordered a piña colada, which was basically just a premixed blend thrown into a cup. We also tried a club soda and a Coke, but we couldn't drink them because they had a strong taste and smell of unfiltered seawater. I understand being by the ocean can influence flavors, but this was excessive. Moving on to the food: we ordered tacos, a salad, a burger, and a BBQ platter. The tacos were a bust; my daughter took a bite and decided she didn't want to finish them because they tasted "funny." The salad consisted of pre-packaged greens, which were acceptable but nothing special. My husband tried the burger and immediately set it down, saying it tasted like it had absorbed the smell of a refrigerator. He tried to salvage it but couldn't get past the unpleasant flavor. I had high expectations for the BBQ platter, but those quickly vanished. It felt like a plate of dry, old leftovers drenched in BBQ sauce. That's the best way to describe it. The fries that accompanied the platter were good, as was the coleslaw, but overall, it was still a big disappointment. In short, save your time and look for better dining options on the island—there are plenty!

This restaurant was just an average greasy spot, and I wasn't impressed at all. The service was terrible as well. There are plenty of better places to dine nearby.

The food was excellent, and I can honestly say it was the best mixed drink I've ever tasted!
