ZenFoodster: Gourmet stop for donuts made w/ fresh fruit & nuts! My faves:cashew & orange blossom filled (R), PB & blackberry jam filled (front), & Concord grape (not shown). Apple cinnamon (L) tres leches (bk)
Karen: Really unique doughnuts made of different grains, in varying sizes, perfect as a treat or a party dessert. They have gluten-free! Kind of pricey ($4/doughnut regular sized).
Jamillah Anne Dimaculangan: Red Velvet And Blackout Doughtnut are the best!

Thai Restaurant · Turtle Bay · 167 tips and reviews
Greg Schaentzler: Excellent Pad Thai and Chicken Cashew, but not as delicious as its counterpart in Hells Kitchen. This location is a lot more informal than HK, no frills but always solid.
Jarel Hill: Like the cashew chicken
Andy Grossman: Great service. Try the ginger & anise Pho Bo.

Kisha Chandler: Very similar to chopt. Service and salad options are awesome! I would order online next time. Lines are long but they move fast and service with a smile. All dietary needs are available, just ask!
Andrew C: Solid salad place, nice selection of chef creations/featured bowls... but very long lines and overpriced meals, just like any other midtown lunch spot
Pat Hu: Order and ahead and pickup to avoid the prime time lines.

Seafood Restaurant · Turtle Bay · 103 tips and reviews
Susan J Campbell: The milk and honey dessert with peanut butter cake is to die for
The Wall Street Journal: The restaurant's yellow fin tuna confit sandwich, topped with fried artichokes and served on fresh focaccia, is a favorite. Read more.
Dustin Lee: Check your bill before you pay. They put a $50 gratuity on my (originally) $127 bill and then proceed to give me an attitude when I asked about it.
