I had high hopes for this place. I was a bit underwhelmed by the customer service. The drinks also were a bit watered down as well.

Good, service, ambiance was amazing! Love the Tiki Bar and all the staff was friendly! read more

This place is a joke. Service was absolutely awful, food was gross, and drinks were small and watered down. Staff could care less about the customers. Not sure how they are still in business read more

First time here and it made the best impression. Despite it being hotter than hell this afternoon, the refreshing cocktail and view made up for it! The menu had a great selection which was hard to make a choice but I ended up ordering the mahi reuben that was best I've had on town. The dressing and sauerkraut was not overwhelming and the fish was nice and tender. The pina colada was way to good to have stick around for the entree to arrive. I know this place has mixed reviews, but I can say coming for lunch would be a great suggestion if you are planning to come since it's not too busy. read more

Went in to Celebrate a birthday , we sat outside as there was a good amount of shade, the breeze was great outside and we were served by Lala at the bar. We were a party of 6 and ordered a bunch of apps (50% off) everyday specific times tho! Food was delicious , seemed like the sauce on a lot of the apps were the same but the taste was great. I love their oysters we ordered many rounds of those. We will definitely be back. read more

This place doesn't deserve a star it's self the food is just bad I tried giving it a second chance and I over paid for the worst steak of my life . My waitress was not good about knowing the menu. And I even seen a dead cockroach on the floor. Do not recommend to anyone there parking lot also stays flooded when you try to enter. The only reason the place stays open is because it's on the river. read more

Great service! Jennifer was great at recommending entrees! The crunchy lobster roll is out of this world! All food was delish!

O no. Cockroach walking along the base of the wall next to our table. The floor was admittedly sticky, but we just assumed it was from a recent rainstorm. Guess not. Sanitation is sorely lacking at this place. If the dining room is dirty, imagine what the kitchen and food prep areas must look like. Yuck. Although living in tropical Florida means living around pests and finding cockroaches outside, not in my house and not in any restaurant we go to for a meal. Nope. We immediately got our check; paid our bill even though we had just been served; and skedaddled to our car. And we left our food untouched. Gross. Never again. read more

Wonderful food, nice view, good place to talk away from band on deck. The special seafood pot wit lobster, mussels. Shrimp, snowcrab legs was overly generous, it could serve two. Took a while to get our drinks. Seemed to be a nice crowd there. Whole red snapper was great and so was shrimp scampi linguini. We'll go back. read more

Visited the Lazy Turtle on a Friday night for dinner. From the road you wouldn't know how spacious it is inside. They have three dining spaces, an indoor dining room with white table cloths, dining tables in the bar area and also on an outdoor deck. All dining areas have a view of the river. Our server was very attentive and friendly. My husband & I shared a bowl of lobster bisque ($14) served in a bread bowl. The bisque was good with large chunks of lobster but you definitely get more bread than bisque. I ordered fish and chips ($24) and my husband the 5 piece jumbo fried shrimp platter ($28). My husband enjoyed his shrimp but my cod was not good and tasted freezer burned or like it was refrozen. The texture was not good so I ended up not eating more than half. My dinner came with sweet potato fries which were average. For what we spent, I left disappointed in our visit. read more

If negative stars was an option it would have totally been chosen! Didn't even waste time to order anything after we received a bowl of lobster bisque that was separated not a bisque. Chalkboard still had Father's Day specials on it and it was Tuesday. Much better options for restaurants in that price range by far! Don't even bother wasting your time like I did! Will never return and will never recommend nor return! Absolutely AWFUL! Staff was also in awful dirty no washed inappropriate uniforms or whatever they were wearing! Dirty and gross! read more

I had heard bad things so was hesitant to go but it really was quite good. Server was fast and the food was tasty. The manager (or owner) even came out to ask how we were doing. Very nice place. I'll go again. read more

Sat on the patio for lunch with the family, I selected the Chicken tortellini off the lunch special which was low priced for the amount of food I received. The chicken was seasoned very lightly and cooked throughout. The cheese sauce was nice and thick and had a wonderful flavor. The tortellini was perfectly done, tasted fresh and home made. Didn't have a wait to be seated, the staff was very responsive as it was a hot day and I had to get quite a few refills of the sweet tea. Recommend this for a casual group that enjoys a few hard beverages near a wonderful view of the water. Lazy turtle has plenty of tasty appetizers, I went with the spicy cauliflower. read more

Lazy Turtle - I selected the Chicken tortellini off the lunch special which was low priced for the amount of food I received. - Desserts Near Me - Palm Bay, Florida

Came in with a party of 5, no reservation and were immediately seated. Didn't take long for our server, Justin to greet us and take our drink orders. Great personality and knowledgable. Answered all our questions and gave great recommendations. We ordered a variety of apps, soup and entrees. Conk fritters and lamb lollipops were on point and the lobster bisque is an absolute must. It is served with a large bread bowl full of lobster chunks. The filet was perfectly cooked. The paellas flavors were well blended and the rice was well cooked and not dry at all although the lobster could have been seasoned. It was very plain. Fried fish and shrimp baskets were cooked well but could also use more seasoning. We ended the meal with a shared lava cake. Very tasty. This place is on the pricier side. $60 a head easy. The only real complaint I have is the 4% credit card fee they charge you on top of the high prices. With the amount they are charging they should be able to cover the credit card fees. read more

Below average food for a premium price. The service was slow and the servers seemed like they didn't care about your service at all. The fish was not fresh and was of putting for multiple people at the table. The restaurant itself was not well maintained. The door to the outside patio fell off during our meal. read more

Food was outstanding, drinks great great and the service was great!! I'd recommend Lazy Turtle to everyone I know !! read more

We stopped in for appetizers and drinks today on a whim. Wow! I have seen some negative reviews here, but we have no complaints. Party of 7 and sat immediately. Greeted as soon as we walked in and the service was on point. We had calamari which was nice and crispy, chicken nachos (don't fear the mango it very mild!), large oysters, perfectly fried shrimp, ahi tuna with eel sauce and the fish dip. Everything came out very tasty!!! Even found a pearl in my oyster! read more

Worst place ever - 45 minutes before even a drink order. 2 hrs for food. Parmesan chicken appeared to be a frozen patty thrown in a deep fryer, taco's were burnt and the buffalo chicken was a chicken tender with sauce poured on it! Very expensive for less than WaWa quality food. read more

So Much Fun! The food is Nice and the staff is GREAT!!!!!!! We saw dolphins! My Children loved it!!!!

I went to lunch at Lazy Turtle today with 5 of my cousins. The food was amazing as was the view! Albert was so personable and really made us feel welcomed. I can't wait to go back! read more

The lack of service at this place was appalling. Had planned on grabbing a couple of drinks and some food, but that quickly changed when it took almost 20 minutes to get a drink. The waitress would disappear forever even though the place was half empty (10 minutes to get a glass of water). The bartender couldn't be bothered to pause her conversation at the bar to make our drinks until the waitress forced her to. This place has potential but fails on so many levels. read more

The shrimp were ice cold and well flavored, the calamari sauce was unexpectedly hot, and snook up on you. The fried pickles aimed for crunchy but we're a little soggy. The rack of lamb came out perfectly cooked at the exact level we ordered. The grouper was delicious, plump, juicy and battered with a good coating. The sweet potato fries had a spicy syrup of some kind that I wasn't a fan of. But the lobster roll? Just give me a bowl of that and I'll be happy. The service was a little lacking, asking if we wanted plates for the appetizers was a little odd and the wait time for food was a little long. The view is pretty and they have indoor and outdoor dining. read more

Lazy Turtle - Please read!!! - Desserts Near Me - Palm Bay, Florida

Excellent service, excellent food! We thought it was going to be over priced until we saw the portions!

The Lazy Turtle is an up and coming waterfront palm Bay restaurant that has awesome patio and window views of the Indian river in Palm Bay. The drinks are AMAZING! Order a specialty bucket from the drink menu and enjoy one of the many items from their eclectic food menu. You can get anything from sushi to a hamburger here and everything is pretty good. They had a little delay with the service, but I think they are still going through their growing phase. I've been there 3 times now and each time the service has gotten better. You have to check it out. They also have complimentary valet parking. read more

Lazy Turtle - Phenomenal Outside Patio Seating - Desserts Near Me - Palm Bay, Florida

Sooo..... The atmosphere doesn't match the menu but-lazy turtle had the best tomahawk steak I've ever eaten (and I've tried a few). All of the appetizers were spot on! I'm not even sure if I can pinpoint a favorite. Though the cauliflower is in the tops. The baklava-it's an unconventional twist on a traditional flavor but I will drive to the lazy turtle just for this dessert! Our server Cara was excellent and timed our courses perfectly with delivery-from order time to table it only took 15 minutes for apps, and 45 total minutes from order to steak-which is impressive considering the heft of the tomahawk-and mine was ordered medium! Will be back to the Lazy Turtle for more deliciousness. read more

Stopped for lunch yesterday. Great view from the outside deck. Beer(draft) was not even close to being cold. Food was fine but NOT INEXPENSIVE. Mahi Reuben- $19.00,;Grouper sandwich (fish borderline undercooked) $18. They were busy with big lunch parties, but service still not great. read more

3/20/25 @ 2:45pm, 15 Year Palm Bay Florida Resident: I chose the restaurant to treat My Girls after a long day @ MaKee Botanical Gardens. We arrived @ 2:45pm, placed the order @ 2:50pm with Waiter Anthony. Our order was: 3 glasses water w/lemon, Summer Salad w/shrimp on the side, Coconut Shrimp (4), Cheeseburger w/fries. At 3:15 I inquired, about our order Anthony Waiter stated that the Cook didn't have it ready. At 3:30pm I advised Anthony Waiter to just forget the order. I proceed to the car with my Family. as we were getting in the car, Anthony Waiter chase us down stating that our food was on its way to the table. My Family was starved as we walked the Botantical Gardens since 11am, we proceed back to the table, as you can guess the food was COLD!!! I requested to speak to the Manager. Anthony Waiter stated that he addressed the problem with Mr. Sal, Manager/Owner, but he stated he did not want to speak with us. All other patrons were served in a timely manner, even those than came in after us. Hmmmmmmm!!!! No problem: This is my review: Dont go to the Lazy Turtle, the staff & all concerned, are as the name of the restaurant Lazy Turtles!!!!!! Mr. Sal, you just lost a Retired Mortgage Banker/Retired Military US. Navy & Retired US Airforce Spouse & Family, 15 Year Palm Bay residents...... Oh!!!! And yes we are Black Americans!!!!. MT.

A last minute choice and it should have been one of our first choices. Atmosphere was good. Our server was excellent as she made recommendations and was attentive to our needs. We had 11 in our party. Food was excellent. We had a variation of foods from burgers to shrimp to fish to oysters. Clean. Price was about average for a beach town not overly priced. Service and quality takes precedence. We will go back to this restaurant again. Don't make it your at last choice. This needs to be one of the first choices. It's on the River but it was dark and we really couldn't see anything. read more
