Just came back from seeing Dracula and was blown away. It was FANTASTIC!!! So much so that we bought tix for the Nutcracker during the intermission of Dracula. Every dancer was wonderful from the younger dancers to the main dancers. Everyone seemed seasoned and poised. Highly recommend their productions! I am excitedly anticipating their next show. Fingers crossed for next season maybe Faust!I can only hope!

My only complaint is that the price of the drinks was very steep. I have to say that while all the comedians were funny as hell, if you ever get a chance to see Stiletto, take it.

This was our first time visiting and are not wine connoisseurs. Our server Shannon was very helpful in explaining the wines and making recommendations based on our input. We enjoyed a cross section of the menu. We had the Olives, Bread Service, and Hummus from the Bites menu. The Hummus dish was very good. Among our party we had the Ricotta Gnocchi, Short rib, and slow roasted chicken. I recommend the short rib as a strong dish. The roasted chicken dish could use some attention as the included escarole was a strange side as it had the consistency of dried leaves and was really an inedible part of the dish. The chicken was also "just" done as it had a wee little pink that made the eater a bit nervous about doneness. My daughter had the white wine flight and found it a good way to try multiple different options. I enjoyed the right bank red blend that was recommended based on the mixed experiences of two of us who were sharing a bottle. It was a good choice. I would recommend Turks Head for a nice evening with friends or a romantic evening with that someone special. Another great dining option in West Chester that has been under the radar.

Turks Head, West Chester -- Beautiful Atmosphere, Excellent Service, Inconsistent Food…read more We recently visited Turks Head in West Chester as a party of four -- two couples celebrating two birthdays. Overall, we really enjoyed the atmosphere, wine, and service, but felt the food experience was somewhat inconsistent, especially considering the price point. Atmosphere 10/10. The space has a cool, sophisticated vibe that immediately stands out. We loved the music and overall ambiance -- it's clearly designed for lingering over wine, cocktails, and conversation. The atmosphere is easily one of the restaurant's strongest assets. Service Our waiter, Jack, was excellent -- attentive, personable, and knowledgeable. We genuinely enjoyed our interactions with him throughout the evening. The rest of the staff was also extremely friendly and accommodating, especially when we encountered issues with our entrées. Service overall was a highlight of the experience. Food The menu is structured around a first, second, and third course, though we opted for starters followed by entrées. The starters were a strong start. We tried the heirloom tomato dish, chilled shrimp, and Caesar salad with chicken. All were well received. The heirloom tomatoes and shrimp were appropriately portioned for starters, while the Caesar salad (with chicken added for an upcharge) was notably larger and very well executed -- one of the best dishes of the evening. For entrées, two of us ordered the branzino (market fish), which was very well prepared and paired nicely with the recommended wine. Unfortunately, the two porchetta entrées were extremely disappointing and had to be sent back. The staff kindly offered to remake them, but we declined, unsure a replacement would differ significantly. Instead, we ordered the lamb meatballs. While flavorful, they arrived cold and consisted of only two meatballs per order. The porchetta was removed from the bill, which we appreciated, though we were surprised the replacement dish was still charged given the circumstances. The staff handled the situation professionally, but by that point we were joking that we might need to stop for food on the way home. Drinks The wine program is interesting but somewhat confusing. They offer a white wine flight for $35 and a red flight for $35, with a "Gold" flight at $55 that includes both reds and whites. The structure felt a bit unclear, so we opted for cocktails and wine by the glass instead. The cocktails were excellent, and our friend enjoyed his white wine. During dinner, we ordered the Expedition Sauvignon Blanc, which paired very nicely with the branzino. The two Cabernet selections -- one from Napa Valley and one from Sonoma County -- were also well received. Desserts Dessert was a mixed experience. The chocolate tortes were good but slightly firm in texture. The lemon olive oil cake had a dry exterior but a pleasantly moist center. The standout was the selection of chocolates from a local chocolatier -- truly delicious. However, they were served on a warm plate and began melting almost immediately, which felt like an odd presentation choice for such delicate items. One additional surprise was that coffee or espresso was not offered after dessert, which felt like a missed opportunity given the restaurant's upscale wine-bar atmosphere. Special Occasions We mentioned we were celebrating two birthdays when asked. The staff did acknowledge them, which we appreciated. While we weren't expecting anything complimentary, a small gesture such as a candle with dessert would have elevated the moment and made the celebration feel more special. Overall Impression Overall, Turks Head excels in atmosphere and service. The space is beautiful, the staff is outstanding, and the wine and cocktails are very good. Several dishes were also genuinely enjoyable. However, the kitchen execution was inconsistent, particularly with the entrées, which makes the experience feel misaligned with the pricing and overall polish of the restaurant. Would we return? Yes -- but likely in a different way. Turks Head feels ideal for wine, cocktails, and light bites rather than a full dinner. With a bit more consistency from the kitchen, this could easily become a standout destination in West Chester.
