Turtle Club Closed for the Summer Back in October Purchased by Chris Evans



The Turtle Club after a successful relaunch this past season has closed for the summer while announcing that local Chris Evans has purchased the restaurant with a partner.  The restaurant, whose original owners had operated  the Club with Evans as manager with its tropical patio and courtyard, offered many menu features of the popular Turtle Club in Naples in its elegantly restored building at the corner of West Marion and Taylor Avenues.

Evans said in the Punta Gorda Herald today that  he and the staff attribute a great first season to their guests. “We are deeply grateful for the loyalty of Punta Gorda diners and all the nearby communities, fans, and friends who had been hounding us to get the old Turtle Club up and going again"

While its sad to see a favorite closed till October, we will look forward to a grand reopening in the fall.
