Turtle Beach Pub - Sarasota

We've been going to the Turtle Beach Grill for 10 years and tonight was the worst. 2 hours to get a couple of appetizers and two basic meals. Apps were soggy and fish was probably the worst we have had ever there. Hopefully just a bad night as we have been happy every time before (for years! Not busy either... so zero excuses. Will go back and hope for our prior enjoyable evenings.

We had some appys of tuna and fries with great drinks! Vi did a great job as our server!

Tried this place for the first time and was not disappointed. The burgers were delicious and the Philly cheese steak was to die for. Our server Heather was fast courteous and very attentive. I will definitely hit this place again before going home.

?Our fish is fresh frozen? sorry, no such thing. We should have left as soon as we were told that. The waitress was great, friendly and I really felt kinda sorry for her for having to push the really bad food. I had a grouper sandwich, which I ordered expecting to be cooked and blacked, it was raw and cold, but then, frozen needs a bit longer to cook. I did not eat the replacement. The deep fried fish nuggets were also uncooked and had to be sent back. Side salad was about 15 wilted leaves of the top part of old Romain lettuce. Watered down lemonade is always nice on a hot day. As a retired executive chef, who loves to support and find tiny little places ?.. let?s just say, only because the waitress was really nice, it got 2 stars. The food is frozen and taste as such. Don?t bother, it?s really not worth the stop.

Had the half rack of ribs with coconut shrimp and a calamari appetizer. Ribs were tasty, tender and very good! Coconut Shimp was freaking amazing, served w pineapple puree on the side. Calamari was very good. Loved the outside bar, friendly and welcoming... also a suitable family atmosphere!! Staff was courteous and prompt! Hop the trolley to this Grill, you will be glad you did...?...
