We headed right to Cocoa Beach after we landed in Orlando. We were really hungry, so we decided to try The Tiny Turtle--and we are so glad we did! Our server was so friendly, and got to our table quickly. We ordered drinks while we tried to figure out what to eat. The kids got meals from the kids menu--a pork quesadilla and a cheeseburger, both with black bean rice on the side. My husband and I shared the Sofrito Burrito with roasted island pork, and we had to try it "wet style" (with more of all the sauces on top--YUM!). Food was so flavorful and fresh! I saw the nachos going to another table, and those looked awesome, too! Glad we stopped in. HIGHY RECOMMEND!

We stumbled upon The Tiny Turtle when looking for a place to grab a late lunch after going to the Brevard Zoo and are so happy we did. It's 5 stars all around! Our server Grace and the other staff were great. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The front patio is a great place to chillax with some apps and cool refreshing beverages.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's a nice buffer of trees so you don't feel like you're sitting right on the sidewalk.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The Sofrito bowl with Mahi Mahi was amazing. The black bean rice with the guacamole and beach slaw worked so well together. Topping it with perfectly cooked Mahi completely put it over the top. I loved the way all the flavors complimented each other. The chicken and cheese empanadas were freshly cooked and tasted great. We can't wait to go back!

Small carribean inspired spot. I stopped in on a Monday during lunch hours in the off season. It was slow so the food arrived to my table quickly. I ordered a small sofrito nacho plate with mahi mahi. It had a hint of spice but was mostly covered in wet sauces. I love condiments & I love a saucy dish but it was a bit much with salsa, guacamole, sour cream & some type of house sauce. It all kind of overpowered the meal. It didn't really hit the spot for me. Menu is intentionally small and somewhat the same dish served in different ways; burrito, salad, bowl, nachos, etc. Service was great! Very friendly and welcoming.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]I love the chill , island vibes here! They even played music from one of my favorite bands- Stick Figure.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The CB punch drink was so tasty and delicious , it's a blend of the perfect amounts of rum and juices. Sofrito bowl was the best! Again, perfectly balanced flavors and fresh! Definitely visit here when you are in Cocoa Beach

This place was delicious the sofritas bowl was so exquisitely bussin I wish I got a large. I will be coming back tomorrow for another bowl before we go home. Wow. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The service was friendly as well along with the chill ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Thoroughly enjoyed this place 10/10.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A little slice of home in Cocoa Beach.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Bravo Chef Moises! Hadn't had a tripleta like that since the food trucks outside University of Puerto Rico (UPR[[HIGHLIGHT]]). Cafe con [[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]leche on point. Chill vibes.

Pros: Ambiance is very cool. Very beachy, semi-tiki, mellow and chill. There's a nice outdoor patio dining room that we sat in, covered to keep the sun out. Service was pretty good. Our server was nice enough, and the food came out in no time. No concerns there. As for the food, it was simple, but delicious. Who knew that adding some Island seasoning to some basic dishes can really make them pop? Cons: The server, who struck me as a manager, didn't have a good working knowledge of the drink menu at all, but we made due. Tips: Get the nachos, and get the catch of the day on them. If you've never had fish nachos before, you will love them. Also, get the burrito if you like burritos. Some breakfast burritos fall kind of flat and are disappointing, but these were gooood.

We came here one day while we were exploring the Space Coast a little bit. We have a buddy who lives out there, so we parked by his condo and walked over here to the Tiny Turtle. We chose the Turtle because it landed on the best places to eat in the US in 2024, which is a pretty prestigious list, so we were pretty excited. Ambiance was sooo chill. It's right next door to the best ice cream on the coast, the Fat Donkey. Thatched roof, tiki stuff, lots of outdoor seating. Nice vibes. Service was prompt and mostly the same: chill, beachy, islandy. Very nice lady. She struck me as the owner, or at least management. As for the food, we opened up with an appetizer. We got the nachos and for the protein, we chose the catch of the day, I think it was mahi that day. No one I was with had had fish nachos before, but they quickly became fans. The fish flaked well, and there were plentiful toppings that were layered well. It was also not a very large dish, so you didn't have to ration your protein too much. You could just eat and enjoy. I moved on to my main entrée, the Triple T Toastie (Scrambled eggs, white American cheese, shredded cheese, potato sticks, and Creme Caribe pressed in Sobao bread. Choice of veggies, bacon, sausage or ham. - Upgrade to all 3 meats). Of course I upgraded to all three meats. Very good sandwich. Excellent, quality fillings, bread that was pressed hard and delicious, and it was large enough to contain all the fillings and not be leaking out and falling out everywhere. A well crafted sandwich, paired well with the potato sticks that added a very satisfying crunch. I also got to eat half of a Wake up Burrito Scrambled eggs, potato hash, Queso Caribe, guacamole, sour cream, roasted tomatillo sauce, and Creme Caribe. Choice of bacon, sausage, chorizo, ham, Roasted Island Pork). Very good burrito, stuffed to the brim, and able to be picked up by hand, which was good, I don't like knife and fork breakfast burritos. Overall, this was a super chill, super cozy little place that can offer you a delicious breakfast before you head out to get your beach on. Or where you can send a runner to get some takeout and bring it to you while you're On the beach. Really nice. I hope to come back one day.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]This place had such a cool vibe and the food was delicious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. we were new in town and wanted to get a unique experience after our beach trip. We stumble into this unique gem and did not disappoint. I had the sofrito bowl with roasted island pork, I initially orders the small size and regretted thinking I should've gone for the bigger size but the small was more than enough. The rest of my party ordered the sofrito burrito and they were all very impressed.

Erin H.

Holy crap this place has such big portions, but I am loving it! My husband and I ordered the sofrito bowl and cuban to split, and it was honestly so much food. We left feeling STUFFED - but it's hard to complain when the food was delicious. No regrets! The Cuban had a lot of meat and soft bread, which I appreciated because I don't like my sandwich bread to be too hard and painful to eat. For the sofrito bowl, I recommend getting the plantain and coleslaw as the added sides! I will definitely be returning!

Deanna H.

We love it here! Even with all the bar options nearby, this is our go-to. It's never overly crowded and the employees are friendly and attentive. We have loved the empanadas and I had a DELICIOUS wrap today. The plantains seemed well cooked and were super good. Yum!

A Hidden Gem with Caribbean Flavor! We've been to Cocoa Beach many times and somehow never heard of Tiny Turtle--but now we'll never forget it. A few locals recommended it to us on separate occasions, so we finally checked it out--and we're so glad we did! The food was excellent--we had the Tripleta sandwich and the cheesesteak, both absolutely mouthwatering. The bread was soft and fresh, and the flavors were spot on. The menu has a Latin-Caribbean flair, thanks to the Puerto Rican chef, and it really shows in the seasoning and creativity. Service was great--Murphy took care of us and made the experience even better. The beers were ice cold, and we were excited to see Medalla, a local Puerto Rican beer, on the menu. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It was quiet when we arrived--so quiet we almost left--but we came between lunch and dinner, so we get it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Still, this place deserves to be packed. We've learned they've been around for about 12 years, and now we'll be recommending them just like the locals did with us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Don't miss this spot. It's a true gem with delicious food and warm, friendly vibes.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

This is my second review one year later and the food is just as good. We've never eaten inside the restaurant as we always get it to go but the inside is a cool vibe with the bar room separate from the dining area. They have local art for sale as well as some merch and souvenirs. We called for pickup right at the transition from breakfast to lunch so our order took about 30 minutes from call to out the door. We will be back again to try the breakfast burrito, but this time got a pork and a chicken Sofrito burrito. They're so good every time. I really hope this place stays in business!

We are slowly but surely checking out all the local joints in Cocoa Beach. This one was a real treat. Cute cute cute place with indoor and patio seating. You order at the counter and then sit and wait for it to be delivered to you. Small menu but everything on it looked delicious. I had the 3 taco basket (beef), hubby had the sofrtito bowl (pork) and we shared chips and salsa. First up.... Chips and salsa: chips were decent, as was the guacamole... salsa was deliciously fresh and cold. However, it really wasn't needed as my taco basket came with a side of chips and salsa. Next up.... Tacos: I ordered beef with corn tortillas.... All I can say is, Sweet Jesus! They were ridiculously good! The flavor was very unique. Hubby tried one of my tacos and agreed..... AMAZEBALLS! Finally.... The Sofrito bowl: Rice bowls are my husband's JAM, so I wasn't surprised at all when he ordered this. He ordered the large (you should too) and ate every last bite happily! The pork was tender, moist, and nicely seasoned. He now understands why this is one of their most popular items. We have mentioned this spot to 3 others since visiting 2 days ago. It's pretty darn good! Try it out, you'll thank me :) read more

Food came out cold. Probably was cooked earlier in the day and served warmed up. Right when my family was done eating we all had to use the restroom. Very upsetting considering we were on vacation and had to pay almost 80$ for food that can be compared to airport food. Never ever going back and good for the people that haven't eaten there. Two thumbs down. Then the owner gets mad for honesty. Even worse then I thought this establishment. Yelp is here for reviews. Those that are reading this. Trust me when I say for the money you're going to pay. It's definitely not worth it. Good day sir! read more

This was our first time here. We were not sure what to expect but the reviews were very good. It was a very warm day and they only have outdoor seating. They are working on opening up an inside in the future. I had the mahi tacos and chicken tacos. They were good. They made him a common mistake with the Mahi in that they did not cut out the bloodline from the fish. But other than that if it was good. They had no fountain drinks available because the machine was being connected to the new location. So the beverages were lukewarm at best. There were a lot of flies so they do need to put some kind of fly bait out. We would go back again if we were in the general vicinity and will try once they open the indoor seating. read more

It's like eating with friends who made really really good food. Friend 2: Hidden gem with both outdoor and indoor seating. Loved the fresh fish wrap with delicious toppings, great portion size.

I had a sofrito bowl at this sort of "hole in the wall" place we stumbled upon on vacation about five years ago. It was so memorably delicious it was the first place I wanted to eat at again in Cocoa Beach. There was plenty of seating outside so my wife and four kids and I had plenty of space. The waitress was charming and kind. The food nailed it just as much as I remembered. My two less adventurous kids ate a kids burger which they both loved, the other two went with a pork soft taco and pork burrito and loved it. I had the tripleta sandwich which was so flavorful. I was planning on having half, after sampling off everyone else's plates, but wolfed down the whole thing. My wife had the pork sofrito bowl and also had only good things to say. The pork had such amazing seasoning. Cannot say enough good things about the food and fun/chill atmosphere. read more

Cocoa Beach feels like home already, and part of the feeling is finding really great food served by kind and beautiful people! When I arrived I was greeted by multiple servers and even some local patrons. After ordering a Caribbean styled beer, I settled on some chicken nachos and wow did I order right! The chicken has a carribean fusion similar to jamaican curry, the cheese was shredded as well as saucy. Wow. The restaurant also has a plethora of well priced desserts to finish an amazing meal. In addition to the great atmosphere and kind waitresses, their selection of beers are incredible and far from the average crap frat boys guzzle down over spring break; to conclude, this restaurant also helps the environment by not serving straws and promoting a waste free eating style XD read more

This place packs a powerful flavor punch! The sofritos bowl is outstanding and has so much flavor happening in each bite between the maduros, the pork and their to kill for creme caribe. I order a small serving of creme caribe to go to use at home even! They are eco friendly in their packaging is a plus. And maybe due to this, my complaint is their prices are high. I don't see these prices being an option for families of 2 or more with an entree and a drink costing around $20 including tip. The other negative is it says it comes with two sides, which I get the maduros and slaw, and for the side you get one maduro for the small entree and 2 for the large. The size of more or a garnish rather than a true side. The slaw is good but also tiny portion for what is considered a side order. I'd say give it a try but prepare for the price. read more

History

Established in 2013.

Inspired by his Grandmother's and Mother's cooking, the flavorful Sofrito base of Puerto Rico, and his own restaurant experiences, Chef Moises has created a menu and environment that will transport you to an island experience full of flavor and a laid back feeling. Opening during the famed Art Show that happens every year in Downtown Cocoa Beach as what was called Food Truck Style, being just a kitchen on the back of a building with a patio and picnic tables for seating, it has now evolved into a full service restaurant but still giving that feeling of a small local "Hidden Gem".

Meet the Business Owner: Moises y Kelly C.

Born in Puerto Rico Moises' family moved to Florida in the 80's spending the first couple years in South Florida and then relocating to Central Florida. Always having the dream of owning his own restaurant he was given the opportunity after meeting a good friend a couple years after moving to Cocoa Beach. He had spent 2 years prior to the start of The Tiny Turtle gaining knowledge and experience in the restaurant field. Each opportunity he grew into lead cook, managing the kitchen and creating new menu items. He has been surrounded by many, including his wife Kelly, that have all had a part at helping him fulfill his dream and is forever grateful for the love and support.

After a sunny day at the beach, our group of eight walked to this shop and decided on buying a whole pie for $18 instead of two slices at $5 a pop. Certainly the better deal, but we also didn't want to regret later for not ordering enough. Well, it was a very good decision. We devoured the whole pie in one sitting like a bunch of starving hyenas seeing food for the first time in weeks. There was not a crumb left by the time we finished. The pie was as great as they say, and definitely one of the best I ever had. Just the right amount sour and tartness without being overly sweet. If I were to nitpick, then I would like a slightly thicker graham cracker crust. Not sure when I'll come back to Cape Canaveral again. However, if I do, this may have become stop number one on my list. You can find beaches everywhere, but an excellent key lime pies is a treasure you rarely discover.

The word "ice cream" caught my eye, and even if it was late February, the weather was warm, which is strange, given a week prior to our arrival, it was freezing cold, so ice cream it was. There was a little line in the store, with only one man scooping ice cream for a bunch of people waiting (who was also the cashier). It was funny to see how people would copy each other with choosing the flavor; the lady in front said "sweet cream" flavor, and each successive person behind her said the same thing, even if they were not with her. I stuck to my guns and got the Key Lime Pie Ice cream, which was a great choice! Sweet, creamy and tangy, all the right combo! They also have candies, salt water taffies of all flavors, beer, alligator jerky, Tortuga rum cakes, key lime pies, a huge wall of hot sauces, and gifts. I ended up walking out with a bottle of hot sauce and orange blossom perfume roller ball, which was very nice. Prices were reasonable given this is tourist-town.

Brownie was amazing and not overly rich like I was expecting by the look of it. Was a great snack on the beach. The cookie was massive and took me a few days to finish it. It had lots of flavors. It's more hard than soft which is expected for a bar style. I wasn't a big fan of the cake parfait cause of the butter cream. The icing was too sweet. It would have been better with the cream cheese frosting. The cake was moist and delicious. The candy bits were too sweet for my liking so I just tossed the icing and candy and ate the rest.

Everything came out fresh, hot, and absolutely dialed in. The burgers were stacked and juicy, the sandwiches loaded, and those sidewinder fries? Forget it. Crispy, golden perfection. You can tell nothing sat under a heat lamp, this was all cooked to order and launched straight to the table. Best way I can describe it given the location... This wasn't just good food, it was a full-on flavor liftoff. Like sitting a few miles from Cape Canaveral and watching a rocket punch through the atmosphere, everything about this meal just took off and didn't look back.

When we arrived, we did notice the outside could use a little TLC, but once inside, it was very clean and tidy. We were immediately greeted by both the hostess and bartender, and they were very friendly. We were seated right away and our drink orders were taken quickly. It took us a few minutes to go through the menu since we weren't familiar with the restaurant, and there are quite a few items to choose from. We ordered the "Crack Mac Snack" (macaroni and cheese) and added pulled pork and the biscuit bread. The food came out quickly, and we were not disappointed. The biscuit bread was absolutely amazing, rich, soft, and delicious (maybe a little too generous with the butter on top, but still delicious). It's a thick, hearty piece, about two inches high and roughly four inches square. The mac and cheese was a generous portion and easily enough to share, and it was really good. The homemade BBQ sauce was also a highlight. The only slight miss was my husband's Coke, which wasn't very sweet, possibly a calibration issue with the machine. Overall, this is definitely a spot worth trying if you're in Cocoa Beach and want something different. There's a lot on the menu, and we'll definitely be back.

Unfortunately a lot of the execution fell a bit flat, especially after both the menu and it's prices had set our expectations otherwise. The amuse bouche was definitely a palate awakener.. a mix of olive tapenade and vinegary mustard. It wasn't for us, but if the goal was to wake up our mouths, it worked. Then hubs had the scallop appetizer with bacon maple marmalade. He thought it was too sweet, I didn't mind it. Scallops were cooked well. I had the mussels from Brussels, a bit clumsy to eat as the mussels were in their shells and the thin Brussel leaves were scattered within/around, all on a bed of pureed potatoes. But a nice flavor and a good portion size. Then i moved on to the beet salad, which was my least favorite. A dish I enjoy at a lot of restaurants, all with different plating/approaches, this one was clunky, the beets were cut thicker than usual, plated with large proportion dwarfing the citrus and the cheese was presented in medium size encrusted balls. It lacked elegance or delicateness, the flavors didn't really meld as they should. Hubs and I then moved to the main course. I had the crispy gnocci app as my main, which was fine, nothing special and hubs had the catch #2 a tile fish that was just ok. We finished our drinks, opted for dessert elsewhere. They've been around a long time, so I'm sure we will try again in another couple years.
