Turtle Shack Cafe

Great outdoor seating. Friendly service. Drinks were amazing, avocado eggrolls were delicious and I will come back again especially for them, sweet potato fries were good but not as crispy as I would prefer so next time I’ll request them well done. Overall, we had an amazing lunch and will be back. Food quality was excellent.

Lovely setting. Grouper and crab bisque was excellent. Crab cake was ok to me although another person really liked the flavor. Trigger fish was very good. Jalapeno rice wasn't really spicy at all. Pineapple cole slaw was good but I didn't really taste the pineapple. Our server Danni was excellent.

Love that the Turtle Shack moved to European Village. Lots of outdoor seating. Attentive, friendly service. Really impressed. Black Bean Veggie Burger with (huge) side salad. Pesto Panini on Croissant with (amazing) Fries. Very reasonable prices. Definitely recommend. Indoor music on Friday. Outdoor music in central gazebo on Saturday. Great people watching too. Lively atmosphere.

This is the prime rib fries I believe. The fries were tasty and crispy. The amount of cheese on this dish though was overwhelming. Our table also ordered the crab and grouper soup. It was a bit too salty, and we were thinking of adding a squeeze a lemon to cut through the salt, but the server was so busy. I decided to just eat the soup because for the time she did actually get to us the soup was no longer hot. It was a cold day, so all the customers sat inside. I imagine sitting outside would’ve been nice on a sunny day, covered by the shade. My parents each had 6 oz hamburgers and I was impressed by the large piece of lettuce. Some places give you small pieces. In the picture is one of the fried cream cheese avocados. Pretty good. I realized when eating it that I just prefer fried avocado

I had the absolute best meal of my entire life here, I think it was called the scallops St. Jaque. I live in Michigan and every time I come to visit my family in Florida I demand we go to the Turtle Shack so I can get this dish. I go back to my photos occasionally just to look at how amazing it was, please never take this dish off the menu!! If I had to pick one final meal to eat, this would be it hands down.
