Rating Rated by Date Review Deanna 10/3/2008 9:19:00 PM Love Tortuga's ! ! Can't wait for them to open after Ike. Last visit waitress was poor, slow, unattentive. Food and Margarita was very good. Good cantina atmosphere. junefour 9/30/2008 12:52:00 PM We love Tortuga's! They have great service, cleanliness, good and atmosphere. One of our family fave places to eat when we visit Galveston. Timothy 8/15/2008 6:08:00 PM DIRTY PLACE! I was scared to eat the food wondering how sanitary the dining ware was. Bathrooms were very dirty. Service was below average. I would NEVER recommend this place to anyone. CHRIS MCCLOUR 7/22/2008 12:45:00 PM GOOD FOOD , GREAT SERVICE AND PRICES WAS GOOD TOO , NICE PLACE , GREAT ATMOSPHERE Jacee 7/9/2008 7:43:00 PM We loved Tortuga's! The food was wonderful and quick to the table. We each ordered the big combination platter and we had enough left to take home for supper! So we really got 2 meals for less than $11 each! We look forward to coming back our next vacation. Ivy Moore 6/19/2008 10:03:00 PM The meal was worse than a Mexican tv frozen dinner. The food was terrible and barely warm when served. I highly recommend you spend your money somewhere else. Monique 6/9/2008 11:52:00 AM I've eaten at Tortugas twice and had a great experience both times! The food is great, affordable and the service is very quick. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to enjoy a good lunch or fun dinner with the family! Oh, and if you have room afterwards, try the fried ice cream. It is delicious! Theresa 5/25/2008 2:26:00 PM Perhaps the others did not order the right menu items. We had delicious chiles stuffed with shrimp. They were so big and delicious, we were blown away. We were in Galveston for a week during Thanksgiving and made a point of going back again before our vacation was over. clay 4/13/2008 7:31:00 PM Possibly the worst tex-mex/mexican food I've ever eaten. It was a gastronomical disaster. Lee Roane 2/21/2008 2:22:00 PM Not bad for a chain. The spinach enchilladas are good.
