Reviews
Was really excited to try this restaurant. We arrived as a party of 11 for Birthday celebrations. The two cocktails I tried where a strawberry daiquiri which was mostly blended ice which wouldnt melt down so abit wasted and a strawberry mojito which was really nice. I order curried mutton, the Mutton cooked beautifully the sauce not so nice, i think it was watered down too much and lost too much of the flavour. The rice and peas wasn't nice couldn't taste any coconut, or other spices. The rice was cooked nice but wouldn't of recommended that type of rice. Probably would of been nicer with kidney beans instead of pigeon peas (if that's what you used). The patty's where smaller than we thought but you did get 2 and was very nice and flavoursome. My partner got the jerk chicken wings for starters which he thoroughly enjoyed. The dumplings were absolutely beautiful. The young man who greated us on arrival was very friendly and helpful. The young lady with blonde hair who served our drinks was also friendly and helpful. Along with happy and helpful staff, atmosphere and music we had a lovely night. Thank you
Went here for the First time and was amazed will be defo back for more and more its now 1 of my favourite restaurants the food was amazing and you can try sooo many things at a great price the chef has got some serious tallent
Went for the first time for lunch. Food was 10/10 the red snapper, dumplings and patties were amazing. There was some confusion with the bill but the waitress handled it. Will definitely be returning with family and friends
TurtleBay let us down, Health & Safety no water in area therefore had no option but close! So I'd marked this restaurant to want to go, used Google maps to walk from town centre up the hill, taken us 12mins. It was so worth the wait, a lovely restaurant, very inviting inside, music playing, lovely friendly staff, the young man who who served us was a superb, thank you, I didn't ask your name. Started off with cocktails, offer on 2 for £10, & you don't have to choose the same, they can both be different Lush!, Food was amazing, cooked to perfection, service was good too, started getting a little busy, but came over to inform us our order was on it's way, great communication . I went to investigate outside, lot's of seating outside overlooking the river, beautiful scenery & in the sunshine , next visit . Definitely recommend trying this place & also child friendly, burgers, small starters, or get a couple of sides, main meals, lot's of beers/Gin/juice etc, & it's not too expensive either.
The food was average at best. Visually, the food looked authentic for the most part. Unfortunately, quite a few items were dry and tasteless. The tables were filthy with the mats actually stuck to the table as they were so sticky. The staff were the best part of the dining experience as they were attentive and provided a good service.
