Excellent Food & Atmosphere. Thoroughly enjoyed indulging in the food with much appreciation for the consideration of vegan/vegetarian options. Much attention to details in food as well as decor of restaurant which brings the restaurant to life. Felt like i was dining in the heart of Mexico. Celebrated a birthday and was very impressed with the memorable experience.

Delicious food with friendly service. We tried the jackfruit enchiladas and the chicken fajitas which were both tasty and filling.

We thoroughly enjoyed the food. Very affordable with lots of starter options for those wanting to try different things. Mains portions are great and quite filling. BEST guacamole in house WOW! Wine list isn’t very extensive, perhaps more creative cocktail options can be added, but value for money! Amazing date night location (look at my date )

This was my first time here but our guests had been before. From the moment we walked in we felt at home! Colourful interior with very friendly staff. Karlo attended to our needs all evening and was very knowledgeable about the menu. I'm vegan and gluten free and there are loads of vegan options available. Tortuga Loca really do care. The food portions were plentiful and presentation was outstanding. We had 2 starters, 4 mains and 2 coffees. There is also a very satisfactory drinks menu. My guests raved about their Margharitas and the different beers on offer!

The service was good and the prices were good value. The guacamole was nice, the ceviche had too much bloodline in the fish, but good flavor. Tuna tacos were delicious and chicken salad was great. Jalapeno poppers not pictured but delicious!

Excellent food ! We really enjoyed the Mexican food here with very fresh and delightful taste. The starter portions are good enough to be mains - very decent portions. The service was great and loved the atmosphere !

We are regulars here and deeply appreciate how careful this restaurant is about accommodating our dietary needs, including a severe dairy allergy. They are good around veganism as well with ensuring meat-based dishes are prepared with no dairy. Not all establishments are this careful so we come here a lot because we know we can trust them around this!
