Merlot
Jessica A.

This is such a lovely restaurant with beautiful views of their golf course! The views made for a great experience. They have a great wine selection, but I went with my favorite - merlot. We started with the focaccia, which I believe had garlic baked in it. The garlic was pretty strong, but overall, the bread was tasty, especially with the whipped butter. For my entree, I ordered the single crab cake, which came with fries and coleslaw. I really enjoyed this meal. Lastly, for dessert, I got the strawberry and rhubarb galette, which was topped with ice cream and caramel drizzle. I really loved it!

Full moon and fire pit. And they brought our food out to us even though they were very busy at the bar.

Updating my old review when things were not so good here. But What a great place to dine. Service is great. Food consistently solid and creative. Changing menus is great (even though I have to watch some favs disappear) Patrick at the bar is top shelf and consistently professional. They work hard and it shows. Still the best dining view around. The exterior heaters are the best (all other places got rid of theirs post covid). And you can catch the sunset at the fire pit.

Butter Poached Shrimp Salad

I went to house last Saturday for brunch. Overall, I enjoyed my experience there. The food and drinks were tasty and the restaurant had classic brunch staples. We started with the crispy shaved brussels sprouts appetizer. They were drizzled with a pomegranate balsamic glaze that was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend got the chicken and waffles and its served on a beautiful wooden platter with potatoes and fruit. It was a very popular dish as I saw a few other tables with the same. The waffles were fluffy and chicken was crispy and well seasoned. I got the stuffed French toast and unfortunately, I don't recommend it. The French toast was very thick and fried a bit too hard for my liking and overall it was pretty dry. It didn't seem stuffed with anything. I also got a side of scrambled eggs with cheddar and they were fluffy and very tasty. I imagine their omelettes must be tasty as well. In the future, I'd like to try the dinner menu, particularly in the warmer months. The rear of the restaurant has large windows and a beautiful patio that overlooks a golf course. I went on a chilly Saturday and sat indoors, but I could tell that the patio would make for scenic dining in summer. The restaurant seems to be attached to the golf course/country club, so there's ample parking available. We got in easily with no reservation.

Shrimp & Grits
Kymbaly W.

Mu family and I came here for my Aunts birthday. It was about 11 of us on a Saturday around noon. Our waitress was Nadya and she was so sweet and nice. She made sure to get everyone's orders written down correctly and was always pleasant! She checked on us and if there was an issue she did her best to find a solution as soon as possible. She needs a raise. Lol!! I ordered the shrimp and grits. I also ordered lemon hot tea. When the tea came out mine was not hot neither was my Aunts tea. Nadya was sure to take them back and when we received our next tea pots they were indeed hot. I will say that the food was just, okay! My shrimp and grits left a lot to be desired. The grit cake was not my favorite. We had to cut the grit cake open and then disperse the grits which were a little thick for my liking. The fried part of the grit cake I did not prefer. The shrimp were flavorful and the sauce was a little spicy which I liked as well. Overall, it wasn't bad but I wouldn't order it again. A few people ordered crab cakes and I was able to taste it as well. NO! It was not seasoned well and a little too wet, if that makes sense. Yes, it was lump crab meat but it's definitely not what a Md crab cake should be. My uncle got the old bay wings but they were not fried hard. He was really disappointed. My Aunt whose tea was not hot got the chicken and waffles. She was disappointed. The waffles were not hot and a little dry. My cousin also got chicken and waffles and his presentation was great. The potatoes were crispy but you need to add your own salt because if not, they are bland. His chicken was a little dry, also. Overall, our experience here with the staff was great but the food left a lot to be desired.

Seafood Omelette with Toast (2)
Christine R.

I enjoyed this place. I had no idea it was here and it was nestled in a residential neighborhood on a golf course. The inside is a little classic but bright look. There is a lobby/sitting area, main dining area and then a room used for events, and possibly other spaces but that's all I saw. There was a baby shower happening in the event space while we had lunch. We were a party of 6 adults and 1 infant. I can only speak for my food and shared appetizers, but I know everyone enjoyed their meals and we left stuffed. The portions were hearty, especially the chicken and waffles. I had crab dip, tuna tartare, and a Caesar salad. The crab dip had lots of real crab and was seasoned well. I also really liked my other dishes- the Caesar was perfect. I also had one of the mocktails but can't quite recall what it was called. It was refreshing. I will be back to try more!

This is what to expect, could be SO SO much more

Please see previous info: Had an anniversary reservation that only thing seemed to reserve for us was a bad time, or possibly a waste of time. Never got to try the food, couldn't hear my anniversary partner regardless with all the loud people and kids everywhere. Very poor over all

Lobster roll
Monae S.

My dad treated me to the turn house for lunch to celebrate my birthday. We had a great time! They initially seated us outside with the headlamps. The view of the golf course was beautiful, but I was cold. We had to head back in which surprisingly the staff accommodated us no problem. The menu looked great. To be honest, I wanted everything. I settled on the risotto which was delicious. My dad got the lobster roll which was I happily ate along with my risotto. I know my dad was still hungry, but hey it was my birthday. Anyway, the lobster roll was warm and delicious. I could eat ten of them. Between the view, the food and the service, I was very pleased. I will definitely be going back.

Chicken and waffles. Check out the plate!
Candace M.

I heard about this brunch spot on social media and had to try it out. It's located on a golf course so the exterior is already beautiful! Plenty of parking near the front door so that was convenient. The restaurant itself was cozy with an older, more classic decor. Our server was Natasha. She was super sweet and gave us some excellent menu recommendations. I couldn't make up my mind what large plate I wanted so I made a meal out of side dishes. The potatoes were my favorite! TOP TIER!! The waffles were fluffy and sweet but a little cold by the time it got to my table. But that was okay. My girlfriends both ordered the chicken and waffles and one of them cleaned her plate. Like nothing left!! The other one asked for a box to take it home. Needless to say they enjoyed it. I think you'll like this spot. It's not exactly designed for a younger crowd but it's quiet, easy to find, serves a tasty meal.

Fritto Misto
Michael S.

Beautiful restaurant with a great outside area that overlooks the golf course. The food: It was really good! The salmon was perfectly cooked, crispy on the outside with a very tender middle. The sauce was a great compliment to the salmon and mashed potatoes. I'm not a fan of buffalo wings; I like other flavors, but they were super crispy (as advertised) and packed with flavor. The kids grilled cheese was on homemade bread. That means they take great care in their bread! A lot of restaurants outsource their bread but not here. They make everything in house and it shows. The frito misto was fine. Nothing to write home about. The service: we sat down at 5:40. We weren't done with dinner until 8:30. That's a really long dinner for Americans. There was some hiccups but I have a feeling they will get it together soon. The food was five stars and the service was more like 3 stars. So I would give this place a chance because the food was great and the happy hour menu is throughout the whole restaurant. Yep that's a game changer!!!!

Mixed Berry Crostada
Becca S.

Starting with the good. The food was delicious. We ordered probably half the menu. Appetizers for happy hour, dinner, and desserts. My personal favorites were the salmon dinner (not pictured) and the watermelon salad. I would go back every time for the food. Unfortunately, the service was non-existent. We could not get the waitress other than once every half hour... our needs were not met. We had to get up from the table multiple times to request things like spoons, waters for our kids, and dinner (not lunch) menus. We had a 5:30 reservation and 2.5 hours later I'm still here. As in, I'm writing this, waiting for my bill, and might go ask for it up front. If the service were better, this would be a 5 star hands down.

Maggie's Crab Dip
Abby S.

Came to the Turn house for happy hour on a weekday. There were lots of seats at the bar, as well as indoor and outdoor seating options. I liked the peaceful atmosphere and the views of the golf course. They offer modern American foods with a French flair. We ordered the crab dip and it was quite tasty and came out hot and fast. Their happy hour offers $7 drinks and the bartenders made sure our glasses were always full! The bartenders were all attentive and could make anything you want as they have a full bar. The bathrooms were clean and well kept. We will be back!

summary: went for a Happy Hour to celebrate our anniversary and enjoyed the experience from top to bottom. The service was welcoming and friendly and frequently checked in on us throughout the meal to make sure we didn't need anything. There were a decent number of patrons present too, so it was nice not having to worry about tracking down our server. The happy hour is pretty awesome here. There are a ton of drink specials for all palettes (wine, beer, mixed drinks) and a large selection of apps. It was great to have a chance of trying all sorts of small plates and getting kind of a tapas situation while enjoying drinks. The vibe is on the slightly elevated-casual to formal end of things making it perfect for a date night. The restaurant itself sits within a golf course, so you get a nice view of the greens as you dine. There's also TVs set up to have a sports bar type of atmosphere in the main room. Overall, a great experience getting to celebrate our anniversary and will be back!

Crabcake
Tiffany L.

If you go please see Madison , her professionalism and stellar customer service met and exceeded my expectations, thank you to her . The first drink I had was a Cadillac margarita with no salt on the rim it was great . The second drink I had was the bee keeper , I had two of those , the lavender and honey infused was everything . For a starter I had the honey old bay wings, they were cooked to perfection, the right combination of seasoning , I so enjoyed them. For my entree I had the crab cake sandwich with French fries . It was a brioche bun with lettuce, tomato and a aioli sauce . The crab cake was well flavored it was all lump meat no filler .

Can't be sure if it's the same one from last time but the lack of communication about happy hour prices, his sour demeanor, and the obvious unwillingness to do a lil suggestive selling was a bummer. Fortunately, the manager on duty did an awesome job smoothing things out buttt I'm not able to confidently say this mishap was "not a deal breaker" this time. Seasons 52/Columbia just might be eliminated from our rotation. If I'm going to drive 45 minutes, it just has to be worth it and mediocre customer service is an absolute deal breaker for me. Hoping you can share a more pleasing experience. When you go, please tell them you saw it on Yelp.

Free parking in attached garage where you can walk right into the inside of the restaurant.

Husband had his Kona ribeye done medium and enjoyed it.
