Tortugas is a must stop while on the boardwalk

We stopped by Tortugas Tiki Bar several times during our stay on the boardwalk. Emily & Shawn took great care of us! Drinks were delicious and the food was exceptional! But ultimately, the atmosphere and the service kept us coming back for more. I will...certainly be hitting up this tiki bar when I return to Virginia Beach for another stay. Jimmy Buffett would approve.More

Wonderful visit for some cocktails !

This location was seen earlier in the day and had a great vibe! We came back later in the evening for a snack and some cocktails. Anthony, our server was wonderful and attentive as soon as we sat down. All the tables were filled and...there was a particularly demanding group over from us. Your employee handled the situation with grace and professionalism. He deserves recognition. Overall great experience with the drinks and service !More
