Looks a little daunting from the outside, there were few cars in the parking lot and a sign that said don't feed the alligators but the reviews were good so we went in. Casey was great, chit chatted, shared that alligators like Cheetos, then introduced Pedro the one eyed gator. Quite interesting. Food was good too! If we travel through that area again, we will stop.

Weekend special hog wild burger
Madison M.

Turtle landing is absolutely fantastic! My husband, brother in-law, and myself included all agreed that the hamburgers we had were some of the best burgers we've had in years. The fried mushrooms were absolutely massive and delicious dipped in the ranch they served them with. Definitely a go to if your a mushroom lover like we are. Walking in it felt like home and the boss lady ,as my husband has dubbed her, really made you feel like you were family. Ready to go back and enjoy some more good food and drinks soon! 100/10 absolutely recommend

Several reviews mentioned that the burger was great. That is an understatement! We're on the return legs of a 3 1/2 month motor home trip, having started in Tucson AZ and all the way to the Carolinas. I've eaten a few burgers on this trip and I'm not exaggerating when I say this burger is the BEST in the nation. Drive in Diners and Dives, get out here! Janyne is the owner and cook and she knows what she's doing. From the first bite, I knew I was going to eat it all, which I seldom do. When I was finished, my tastebuds were begging for more. The locals were some of the friendliest people I've ever met. The service and friendliness of the server, Janyne's granddaughter Casey added to the fun, especially when she took us to the back deck and called the alligator. I don't think I've ever met anyone who was as knowledgeable about gators! Memorable experience. Thank you all at Turtle Landing!

Great find! This place has great food and wonderful service at a very economical price. The food will surprise you as to how good it is. Cold beer and pool tables with a nice outdoor deck and boat up dock. The patrons of the place are the friendliest folks.

Turtle Creek Bar and Grill.

Excellent food! Great atmosphere! Pool table inside with plenty of tvs and nice staff. Lots of outdoor covered seating if you're bringing the whole crew. Don't let the rough exterior fool you! We drove in to visit the Science center and left hungry. Located Turtle Landing on Maps and saw the great reviews. No lie, best dive bar we've found.

Turtle Landing with "Uncle Dave"
SD V.

My family, friend and I were in New Orleans on vacation and took a private tour with "Uncle Dave." He took us across the state line into Mississippi and to Turtle Landing. He said that this was a place where we could mingle with the locals. The place overlooks a small body of water with vegetation, a couple of fishing boats...very pretty. We saw an alligator swimming around as well. Uncle Dave's family was there, playing pool and just hanging out. It was very laid back. The people were very nice and very friendly. I had sweet tea and the best po' boy ever- a dressed up soft shell crab po' boy. It was so good and I told the lady (owner maybe?) that it was the best meal I had had on the trip so far.

Beautiful view from the outdoor seating! So relaxing!

I'd highly recommend coming here! Especially as an out of stater I've seen things here that I will never forget. The gator watching is real and fantastic (granted only a few but really how many do you need?!), and the burgers are amazing. Surprisingly the deep fried pickles and mushrooms are not greasy at all and the waitress was fast and friendly. Highly recommend.

This place was great! When you first get there you might feel a little trepidation, I promise it will be okay, you are going through the correct door, your eyes will adjust to the darkness in the bar/grill. The staff are sweethearts. The natives are friendly and funny. They will poke at you a bit, if you tease back you are in for a lot of fun, especially if you are a Yankee (anyone from above i10). The food was great, cooked to perfection, large portions and there is even bacon on the house salad. The meat was moist, the ingredients were fresh and everything came to the table hot. We might stay in Pearlington long enough to do lunch There is a juke box with a variety of music...not all up to date but a lot of fun selections. (Our first real ribbing was when a local played vanilla ice in honor of our visit!) There is a pool table, it's a dollar a game. Stop in to have a beer, a homemade burger or dinner and enjoy the company.

We rode the motorcycle out here on a Saturday evening. The ride itself was lovely, but the…read moredestination was even better! It's a whole world away from New Orleans in vibes, but it's less than an hour drive. Tee Wee's is a food truck parked right by the water. There's plenty of seating and it's under a roof, so come rain or shine. They had live music tonight with a band playing all the classics and favorites! There's a full bar too if you're interested in libations We tried the crawfish empanadas ($8) and blackened fish tacos with fries ($15). Both items were hot, fresh, and delicious! I especially loved the blackened fish tacos, it was so good! I could have had 3 more of those! It certainly seems like a local favorite hang, but I would highly recommend non-locals to check it out for both the drive out there and to stop by for a bite and enjoy the fantastic atmosphere!

We just ate the best Po' Boys! I can't say enough about the…read moreshrimp and the red fish po' boys-- they are the best I've had in a long time! Fresh shrimp were perfectly seasoned and fried to golden and crispy, while still juicy and tender inside. The redfish was fresh, flaky, and full of flavor, with just the right amount of spice. Both sandwiches were piled high on soft, warm French bread with crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and a creamy remoulade that tied everything together beautifully. If you're craving an authentic, mouthwatering po' boy, this place is a must.
