The one thing that did take my fancy which I thought had more normal flavours was the jerk salmon. I know it&#8217;s bad but I have never eaten anything with jerk seasoning on it, so I was really excited about trying this, I visioned a crispy\/slightly blackened heavily seasoned salmon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The place was really buzzing and had such a great atmosphere when we entered so I thought so far so good. I heard good things about the cocktails but I didn&#8217;t really fancy one, however something that did take my fancy was ginger beer that was homemade. When the ginger beer came it was huggggeeeee! it came in a glass bottle not a glass! I ordered the jerk salmon with side of sweet potato fries the other option was sweet potato mash. I think as it was so busy the food did take a while to come, when it did arrive the portion was quite reasonable and the presentation looked good, I especially liked how the fries were in a little bucket quite cute. The salmon however didn&#8217;t live up to my expectation, it was not spicy and flavoursome as I expected, so slightly disappointed with the salmon, however the fries were really tasty. The salmon wasn&#8217;t overcooked so that was a plus. My friend also felt the same and found the salmon lacked taste.<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Turtle-Bay-e1383980109284.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1314\" alt=\"Turtle Bay\" src=\"https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Turtle-Bay-e1383980109284-768x1024.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"853\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Turtle-Bay-e1383980109284-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Turtle-Bay-e1383980109284-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1313\" alt=\"Turtle Bay1\" src=\"https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Turtle-Bay1-1024x768.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" srcset=\"https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Turtle-Bay1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/loveeatsleepfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/11\/Turtle-Bay1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I don&#8217;t think I would order the salmon again but looking at the menu again there was a lot of starters\/snacks that I thought sounded interesting and maybe would be back for them.
