"Lazy Turtle Riverfront Grill & Tiki Bar – Florida Coast Tucked along the Florida coastline, the Lazy Turtle Riverfront Grill & Tiki Bar is one of those rare local spots that manages to feel both comfortably close to home and blissfully far away. It’s a modest riverside retreat that delivers the kind of gentle escape most travelers seek, all without requiring more than a short drive. From the moment you pull in, convenience sets the tone: ample parking and immediate seating make the arrival seamless. The staff continues that positive momentum—my server was polite, warm, and genuinely attentive, even though my visit was intended to be a quick stop. It’s the kind of hospitality that elevates a simple meal into a memorable moment. The standout of the visit was, without question, the New England Clam Chowder. Rich, balanced, and deeply comforting, it captures the essence of what a proper chowder should be. Creamy without being heavy, flavorful without unnecessary embellishments—it’s a bowl worth returning for, and one I highly recommend to any guest. While this wasn’t a full-course experience, the overall atmosphere, service, and culinary execution suggest a place that understands its strengths and leans into them. With a waterfront backdrop, a laid-back coastal charm, and food that overdelivers, Lazy Turtle earns its place as a reliable local getaway. A strong 4-star destination—casual, inviting, and well worth the stop. Dr.Collazo"

"We stopped here for lunch on a whim! So happy we did! We had our 1 year old baby with us and the staff was so welcoming and great with her! The bartender cut up fresh fruit while we were waiting and the cook brought her out a toy! That on top of great food, we will be back!!!"

"We had an absolutely fabulous time here! The service was top-notch from start to finish, and every dish we tried was incredible. The nachos were loaded and delicious, the crab legs were fresh and perfectly cooked, the salad was crisp and refreshing, and the lobster bisque was rich and full of flavor. Everything came out just right, and the staff made the experience even better with their friendly and attentive service. Highly recommend for a great meal and a wonderful time!"

"I am very disappointed. I love coming here to have a fresh air and enjoy food. This time I came was not a great moment for me. They got the wrong order and I politely ask to switch it up because I am allergic to the plate they gave me. I thought the waiter was nice to do it since she knew that it was wrong but when they brought the right plate it was just not appealing to my sight and taste. There was a bunch of oil all over the plate and that it’s not appropriate serving. The sad part is I really love the chef’s food but when I get treated like this usually never come back."

"My husband & I decided to run out for a late casual dinner date , we had passed here many times and it’s always busy so we said why not give it a try! Went around 9pm, plenty of seats available, hostess was very kind and showed us our seating options. It was raving so we decided to sit inside near the bar side , we got the crunchy snapper, appetizer fried shrimp with a chili cream sauce which was AMAZING !! Also shared the rib appetizer with sweet potato fries and it was so tasty. Great drinks & a great server and very helpful and informative on menu items. With great weather I’m sure sitting outside day or night would be beautiful , live music and out tiki bar as well !!"
