Tortuga's Island Grille

We had a great lunch. I had a Caesar salad. It was huge with tons of cheese and homemade croutons. The dressing was light and flavorful. Hubby had a sandwich that was grilled cheese with pulled pork and a fried egg on Texas toast. For his side, he got the beans and rice. The beans and rice were delicious. Great flavor -- some of the best we've had. The sandwich was really good but a bit dry. It would be better with some barbecue sauce. Our server was friendly. We loved the place and definitely will return.

Unfortunately, I had a very disappointing experience here that people should be aware of. I came in for brunch and ordered the French toast and grits. The real issue happened when it was time to pay. They are apparently one of the few establishments in 2026 that does not accept tap-to-pay. I went out to my car to check if I had my card or enough cash on me, but I didn’t have either. I came back in and asked the waitress if I could possibly Zelle or Cash App a staff member and have them run their card for me. She said she would ask. That’s when things escalated. A woman came out and told me I would need to leave my ID and go get cash. I explained that I didn’t think I had my ID on me. She then said, “Well you need to start getting your shit together next time you’re out,” and began arguing

Absolutely delicious! It's such a fun place with indoor or outdoor seating options. I went in for the Sunday brunch and had a Ms. Lois, with pan-fried shrimp. The fried grit cakes were so tasty, and I wasn't sure how I would feel about them. The biscuit was melt in your mouth goodness.

I have been a regular customer for years. Always friendly and I have always enjoyed their menu. The brunch menu and lunch menu are always great! The dinner menu is a little different but offers some wonderful entrees. I think they have the best crab cakes in town.

We had such a great experience! I am a bit picky when it comes to coffee creamer and only like flavored creamer our sweet server brought me some of her personal flavor she keeps there for her! I thought that was so kind and nice of her. Our food was fresh and hot and delicious. I had the Monte Cristo and my gracious it was delicious. It was our 20th anniversary and we started our day off with brunch and it made the day so special! Thank you so much!!!
