TURTLES REST. 8875 Midnight Pass Rd., Sarasota, FL 34242, (941) 346-2207, turtlesrestaurant.com
Q-TIPS SAY – After our trip to Myakka Park – went to Turtles. Great view on the bay, service, drinks and the food is good. The Q’s have been here before many times when they owned a condo a few doors down.
Mrs. Q had: We shared the Happy Hour Drinks & appetizer & Bar bites.
The Mr. had: Crab Bisque & Happy Hour Drinks & appetizer & Bar bites.
Enjoyed our drinks. Enjoyed everything along with the views of the bay.
Make sure you take a walk by Turtle Beach which is located across the street by Turtles, if time permits.
Mrs. Q says: If your near Siesta Key stop at Turtles or if you are in the mood for something a little more elegant just drive down the road a bit and there is Ophelia’s by the Bay.
Ophelia’s by the Bay opheliasonthebay.net is less casual and great food, service and views.
Both restaurants are excellent but different types of food. ENJOY! We did.
