Turtle Bay Taqueria

I used to eat lunch here daily when I worked in the area , often with a cool friend who had great ideas on customising her meal. Gilberths were always willing to comply with the unusual but interesting requests. My tastes were more simple but the food was always at or beyond expectations.

I don't eat a lot of Mexican food mostly because I'm not a fan of cilantro nor avocado- two ingredients common in this cuisine. That said, Turtle Bay is the only Mexican restaurant I go to locally. Their steak tacos are delish. Tortilla chips are made fresh and for salsa lovers, they offer a few options. You can also find vegetarian options. The food is not salty either. Wait staff are always friendly, too.

Had lunch at this place yesterday ( 2/7/19). I love the name of the restaurant and the teal colored decor. As we walked inside, we were greeted with friendly smiles from the kitchen cooks and the wait staff. It smelled delicious. A good seafood restaurant doesn't have a stinky fish smell. Once seated, our food server arrived to take our drink order. He was a an elder gentlemen, not on the tall side. He is polite, knowledgeable, charming, efficient, and has a sense of humor. This man is the kind of professional food server any well known, good, reputable restaurant would be lucky to have working for them. I would know, I worked in restaurants for many years. The seafood gumbo was perfect. The bread delicious. The grilled Cajun tilapia salad was large with a nice portion of fresh tasty fish topping it. Their menu is varied and offers many selections. Price is moderate (well worth the amount you spend). Fantastic, friendly staff. This restaurant gets 2 huge thumbs up for me and a guaranteed return. Thank you to our server (sorry I didnt get your name) the cooks and staff for a great experience at Turtle Bay taqueria. Highly recommend.

A nice place to relax in town. I recommend the outside seating. Mexican cuisine prepared fresh to order.
