Turtle Island - Oak Island

I had the calabash fried scallops!! So good, and so many I could not finish them!! I have nothing negative to say about this place!! Hubby had grouper, so good!!

Great food and service tonight! Prices are inflated a little, but to be expected here on the island. Easy access from the road.Seafood was prepared Calabash style and offered fresh catch options.

We ate at Turtle Island on a Friday night. The place was really busy. They seated us quickly and our waitress was fast and friendly. Everyone in our group enjoyed their food. I got the Calabash shrimp with fries and coleslaw. Really good!

Very nice restaurant. The crab stuffed flounder with hollandaise is killer. Its basically a crab cake but instead of breading, it’s surrounded by flounder. Most restaurants mess up hollandaise by making it too buttery. Hollandaise should be that perfect balance between the richness of the egg yolks, the butter, and any extra add ins. I’m pleased to say that Turtle Island’d hollandaise is perfect in my opinion. The grits were also absolutely phenomenal. Best grits I’ve ever had, and single handed my made me want to try the shrimp and grits next time I go back!

Awesome spot. Great seafood, friendly and fast service. Crab dip and grouper were both fantastic. Saved my wife and I two nights in a row when no other restaurant in town had availability for dine in OR take out in OCTOBER! Highly recommend.
