    One of those hidden gems on Decatur that never disappoints! Whether you're catching a game or just want to chill & soak up good vibes, this bar delivers every time. The ambiance gives "Cheers" energy...warm, welcoming, & full of locals & visitors just having a great time. The 10 oz ribeye was delicious. we ordered it rare, it came out a lil medium in some spots, it was still tender & flavorful. The BBQ chicken nachos were a hit too; tasty, just make sure to ask for extra sour cream & BBQ sauce on the side. Their Long Islands are made perfectly mixed. The upstairs bar & patio are a whole vibe. you get a beautiful view & the restroom up stairs impressively clean (which is always a plus in the Quarter!). For sports, drinks, or good conversation, Turtle Bay always guarantees a good time.

    3.5 Stopped in after my flight. Decent beer selection, don't believe there's 25 drafts as advertised. Had guacamole & chips while I had a beer. Nothing special, didn't taste as if it was made in house. Service was welcoming. Patrons were fun & friendly.

    Great spot and if you're in need of a quick meal. There's something on the menu for everyone and it's reasonably priced.

    Husband and I walked Down here to catch the rest of A football game. Glad we did. Do not sleep on their spin dip! We just had an appetizers and an adult bev before our ghost tour that was near by. Service was good. We even got to walk out to the balcony for a quick view . There's a bunch of construction going on so you have to be careful.

    I might have already written a review on this place but doesn't hurt to give my thoughts again!! The food - GREAT !! This is a total dive bar with multiple TV screens on different sports events but when I say this is also a GREAT PLACE TO EAT - the pizza, the salads, the steak (they have 10oz and 20oz Ribeyes for great prices!) all the food is always good portions and tasty. Service is always good and always tourist friendly. One my my go-to's when I'm in the French Quarter!!

    Steak meal

    Was recommended by a few bartenders. Steak dinner for like $16. (8oz steak small piece of bread and a half potato skin) Wasn't bad food for the price just shocked at the amount lol. Local bar. Would go again.

    After hearing about Turtle Bay steak night for many years we finally tried it out because a friend had a birthday party there. We got there a little early and had a couple of beers at the bar, the atmosphere was dive bar friendly. The party was upstairs and the party room was excellent with a huge balcony including tables and chairs. There were 50ish people there so I was afraid our orders would take a long time and I was starving but the food came out pretty quick. I had the 8oz filet which was served with herb butter, slice of bread and small potato. The potato and bread were nothing to write home about, but the steak was perfect and delicious! Well worth the price. If you're looking for a good steak at decent price, Tuesday night at Turtle Bay is the place to go.

    Stumbled upon this place and saw a sign for crawfish. It was SO good. Would not have imagined this from a bar. Full of spice and flavor. 24/7 service which is pretty cool.

    Great bar to get a late night drink and Ordered some nachos and bbq chicken pizza. Everything comes out at a decent time and tasted reasonable. It's nachos and pizza if I had something bad to say that would be an issue.

    20 oz Ribeye for $21.95

    Great wings and burgers. I've never been able to stop in for a drink because I order when I'm working, and I work at a bar.

    This place was fun. The resurrection is sweet but at the same time very strong. And the glass it comes in is a defiantly eye catching.

    We found NOLA most unique bar last wk. Spent a couple hrs in here. Yes, we would return. I…read moreespecially enjoyed several of the frozen drinks that were brewing. The bartender said it had Amaretto, Southern Comfort ??? & ice. Very palletable.

    While in New Orleans for a conference, my group and I stopped in looking for a place to have a few…read moredrinks. From the moment we walked in, the experience felt uncomfortable and unwelcoming. I was briefly recording outside when the door staff told me no videos or pictures were allowed inside the bar--totally fine, no issue with that. Once we walked in, the bartender immediately told us we needed to buy drinks if we wanted to be there. That was already the plan, so the comment felt unnecessary but we brushed it off. Things escalated when one person in our group was simply texting on her phone. The bartender lowered the music and yelled over the mic that no pictures or videos were allowed. We were not taking photos or videos at all. Meanwhile, the door staff continued staring at us as if we were doing something wrong. If they didn't want our business, they should have simply turned us away at the door instead of wasting our time. Overall, the staff came across as rude and overly aggressive for no reason. The atmosphere felt tense and uninviting, which is not what you expect when visiting a new place. Plenty of other bars nearby where you're treated kindly--this just wasn't one of them.
