   I was completely blown away. This place was a last minute planning and I was so pleasantly surprised. From the staff, to the service, to the food it was all amazing. If you Love Italian and looking for a wonderful place to take someone you can stop your search.

   I do not know why they kept this open if they are close and after arriving in an Uber which cost 35.00 to discover that it was close.

   So bad. It pains me to write a bad review considering the state of the restaurant industry right now but this was so bad. They had the bartender waiting tables and bartending, granted there were not many people in there but 6 tables and ppl at the bar is too many ppl for 1 person to handle. My friend and I ordered the margarita on their special cocktail list and it was disgustingly sweet. But it took him so long to get back to us that we just drank them. We ordered the shrimp cocktail for an appetizer and it came out with 5 small shrimp with jarred cocktail sauce. For $19.99 I can't believe we didn't get so much as a lemon wedge… and 5 shrimp? Come on. We asked for lemon and again it took so long we had eaten the tiny shrimp. She ordered the roast amish chicken which tasted like it was freezer burnt. I got the pork chop which came with a sauce that was super salty. It wasn't worth complaining bc again he didn't come back to check on us for at least 20 mins… The cocktails were supposed to be half off (HH) but we were charged full price. Overall terribly disappointing and SO expensive. Would not recommend at all

   I have dined at Tortoise many times. Each time a delightful experience. Food never disappoints. Love the old time elegant atmosphere. Service thus far has always been attentive and quite friendly. My last visit was October 23, 2020. Thank you Tortoise for making my birthday special.

   Our third visit and as special as always. Amazing cocktails—especially the whisky sour. Loved the shrimp scampi dip with Ritz crackers. Yum!

   Server ruined our Sweetest Day Celebration. He was rude, condescending, and his behavior bordered on harassment. He wanted us to order and eat as fast as possible so that he could go home. We were constantly rushed and pushed to order our complete dinner ASAP. He consistently interrupted our thoughtful conversation and ruined our evening. We won’t be back with him working there.

   For our last date night before the birth of our next child, we wanted a high-service blow out dinner night. We chose Tortoise Club, where we've dined many times. Once again, it was spectacular. Even in the age of Covid, our experience was spectacular. Matt, our server, like all the staff, were masked. They made our night fun and literally never missed a beat on a 4-course blowout. Our favorites were the octopus starter, the (fully dressed) wedge salad and the New York Strip au poivre. And of course, the Tortoise Pie. Now more than ever, these restaurants need your support and it's time to visit your old favorites. We are so glad we chose Tortoise Club again.
