Even though this local restaurant isn't local to me anymore (being located in Memphis, not Nashville), I couldn't resist reviewing it. It has fast become a place I HAVE to visit whenever I'm in Memphis.
This is not your typical cheese-laden, fajita-sizzling, monster margarita Mexican joint (though there's nothing wrong with monster margaritas...). The owner's son (who was a part of the Navy Parachute Team--impressive parachuting and skydiving pictures don the walls of the restaurant) tells me that Las Tortugas is exactly the kind of upscale 'torteria' or 'taqueria' you would find in Mexico City.
