Las Tortugas: Reviews & Ratings

Great tortas and aguas frescas! All their tortas are delicious. I've had the Güera, the Colorado and one other that I don't recall. Don't skip the Chipotle sauce or the jalapeños! Can order on the side. Their agua dé fresa is phenomenal. Can order ahead on line if you are short on time. Limited inside seating especially with Covid but dine in is available.

Cool place. Hole in the wall, but a comprehensive menu so everyone will find something they want. It's not much of an atmosphere, but for a quick bite it's fine. Parking sucks, but it's not a major problem. Just a bit of a hassle.

Agree with reviews here, really good authentic Mexican sandwich! Plenty of seating, clean and friendly staff, cashier was helpful and spoke some English. I got the perrona torta and a real coke, pretty good! You should check it out!

This is my 100%. Never have to worry about the food. Always fresh, consistent flavor, and always smiles from everyone inside. Everytime the store is clean, and the restroom is always fresh. Only trouble, it's so popular that parking can be tough to get in and out.

The food is a little bit expensive but it's delicious. Menu is long but because it has basic ingredients with all combinations possible. No vegetarian options, and if you ask to just put beans and vegetables to a torta, they see you weird and ask you several times if that is what you want. Of course, they charge you as a normal torta, so what I do is order any torta and ask to put meat on a side so I can eat it and my wife can have her veggie torta.
