Tt's Tiki Bar

Food was great! Menu has more to offer than in the past. Service was average. Had the blackened mahi tacos and loaded nachos. While still good, the loaded nachos wasn’t what I was expecting when I thought loaded nachos. Might be because the menu description didn’t match what was served. Either way, still good.

Food and drinks were fine. Very party atmosphere, reminded me of being in a party town. But, went during sunset and the view was breathtaking. Would have loved that our drinks had more character than plastic cups, but flavor was good across the board.

This was our first visit to TT's Tiki Bar, and it won't be our last. It was a hot, oppressive day in Punta Gorda with temps in the mid 90's but we decided to brave the outdoor experience of TT's. The tiki bar appears to be a new build, with relatively comfortable seating, including high tops, and seating at a large, nicely appointed bar. Thankfully that day, TT's had multiple fans operating, and there was a nice breeze off the Peace River, which can be seen from all locations at the bar. So, while temps were in the 90's, it was bearable, especially with a cold drink in hand. TT's was rather quiet that afternoon. We were served by Natalie, who was very patient answering our menu questions and offering recommendations. She nudged me into ordering the fish and chips, which in this case is deep fried grouper. My partner ordered the nacho plate, and requested it be made with Impossible Burger. Natalie said that wouldn't be a problem. Both plates were served within 15 minutes, and they were both more than expected. The grouper fish and chips dinner was large, prepared perfectly with a firm, tasty crust, and the fish was moist but not soggy, which is sometimes difficult to find, since fish can be too moist for my liking, although I do order it dry. This grouper did not have to be ordered dry. It reminded me of the traditional fish fry we are accustomed to in Western NY. The breading wasn't too thick, and the fish was flakey. The fries were also nicely prepared with browned edges, and a firmness that allowed for dipping into tartar sauce or ketchup. The fries were flavorful, if not a little salty. I was happy with the meal in total. My partner's nachos came on a plate heaping with goodies. The chips were multicolored, and reasonably crisp considering they were below a heaping mound of Impossible Burger, cheese, beans, and something different, some fruit. The fruit added a subtle sweetness to the nachos, which was something new for us both. jalapeno peppers, along with tomatoes, onion and fruit made for an excellent meal. It could also be an appetizer for more than one. The nachos didn't come with sour cream or guacamole, so you may have to ask if that is your preference. We also tried their key lime pie. While it isn't made on site, Natalie informed us it is made at a local bakery. It was tangy, creamy, and not too sweet. It was accompanied by plenty of whipped cream. For those young at heart or nostalgic for non-video games, TT's also has an area where foosball, air hockey, and other games can be played. All in all it was a good first impression, especially considering the heat of the day. Our only disappointment was the plastic utensils, especially considering their proximity to a body of water. But then again, this is a tiki bar. We didn't take an entire tour of the facility, but we will investigate further. If you are looking for good food, with great service and a nice riverfront view, you may want to consider TT's next time you visit Punta Gorda.

Was a great place to watch the sunset! We sat at the bar and enjoyed our share of cold happy hour beverages. The bartender was quick and made great drinks. We ordered coconut shrimp (overdone, they were fairly busy) questions and chips. Wonderful location, fun tiki decor, huge bar and we had a great time. We'll come back! 🌴

Can’t beat the location! The menu is slightly limited because they’re serving food from the Sheraton kitchen, so some of it is prepared already, like the sandwiches. My wife and I had the chicken tacos and the Caesar salad, and we had no complaints! Plus the roof and the fans keep you from overheating to death.
