We ate an early dinner here the week June 21st. Great service & great food as well. We went with our driver Roberto Alarcon & had him join us....his suggestions were worth the price of his dinner. My wife got the combo platter, enough for both of us. My oldest son got the chicken tacos & raved over the seasonings... more

I had the most incredible experience; my first night (after travelling all day from Miami)in Acapulco (a long-time visitor) after travelling all day, I went to La Tortuga; wanted Mexican food and had ONE margarita. Unfortunately it was very very hot and the delicious food was spicy; so it was hotter. I was alone and FAINTED...out cold! The staff (Gustavo!... more

We have visited this establishment in it's old location and thought highly off it. This year we were greatly disappointed. I ordered red snapper and my dining companion ordered the stuffed shrimp. The dining area was completely occupied and when we finally received our entree they were cold. The waiter was overwhelmed and the maitre d did nothing. We will... more

I have dined at Tortuga for many years and at times it can be one of the top establishments in Acapulco. It's shortcomings are noticable whenever all of the tables are occupied. Ruffino is not capable of doing it all by himself, while Chava sits and watches. These are the times that drive the rating down as the service is... more

The food at La Tortuga is great! The shrimp was incredible, and the Red Snapper was prepared perfectly. We were told about the place from our driver Jose, and it was down the road from our Hotel the Villa Vera, so very convenient. We tried it out one night, and ended up going the next four evenings in a row.... more

Yes, the place is small, but the service and food easily make up for it. Even though we didn't speak spanish, the waiter was extremely helpful and helped us choose a delicious meal. We ordered the Tortuga special (avocado + tomatoes), the shrimp dinner, and chicken fajitas. There was so much food on the table, we couldn't finish it all.... more

Dined here in Jan. 2009 after reading reviews on Trip Advisor. Everything was true. Can't say enough about how excellent the food was. I had Garlic Shrimp.. The waitor was extemely helpful in advising us. It is a small but very clean space. You'll be in for an unexpected surprise! more

I dined at this establishment this week and was disappointed. The service was very poor and the owner just sat on his butt and did nothing to do to help the only waiter in the premise. The food was nothing exceptional and they charge 50 pesos for a glass of jug wine. Way overpriced. more

Not the place that I would recommend as I found the food to be not outstanding and overpriced. more
