                            My friend and I had lunch there yesterday. We were looking for a place that was quiet so that we chat and hear one another. As the weather was very hot we sat inside. Our server was very attentive and the food was delicious. My friend had the crab cake sandwich and I had the chicken filet sandwich. Both dishes were wonderful and we each took half our sandwiches home. We shared the three-scoop gelato, which was superb. I would highly recommend The Turn House.

                            The Hostess gave us two drink menus and one food menu which is a easy mistake since the menu covers look identical. I mentioned the mistake to the waitress, she told me that I was wrong, then immediately checked and then said ohh and proceeded to bring me a dinner menu. Our appetizer was dropped on my table and the young man was not polite. So when we paid the check, the waitress just left and didn’t say anything, but she definitely checked if she received a tip for the mediocre service.

                            I really like this restaurant for the possibility of have a sit outside with a nice view. To my surprise, this is the second time I go to this restaurant and tables outside were not open. This is extremely frustrating and really reduces largely the chances of returning to this place. There was no rain, thunder or any reason for the outside seating not been available.

                            The food was great! The building is a lot smaller than expected. It had a pretty view due to the golf course being attached

                            We've been there several times, but yesterday the service was terrible. I think we waited over an hour or more for our dinner. We could see a young man wandering around the room with our food on the tray, but he couldn't figure out where our table was located. The manager did apologize and some items were deleted from our bill.
