    Even at Sunday evening, the room was overcrowded and very noisy. Service was very slow; and food was expensive but quality mediocre :-( We have been this place many times but haven't seen this bad before

    A friend took me out for my birthday, so I can only comment on “value”, from past experiences. I’m familiar with the restaurant and it is one of my favorites.

    The food was amazing, came out quickly, and the portions were pretty big! We had the salmon and crab cake - both fantastic. The cheeseburger on the kid's menu can definitely pass for an adult burger, lol! Our servers were amazing and gave us complimentary macaroons and a complimentary gift card for my birthday. We'll definitely be back.

    I have been to Turn house many times and I usually enjoy the experience. Today, my friend and I both ordered the duck hash for brunch. We were told we had the last two. However, the potatoes were not cooked through and were partially hard, which I told the manager when he came by and asked about our experience. He offered us a free dessert for the hassle, because there were no other duck hashes available. When we ordered our desserts we waited a half an hour, and then after asking our waiter to check on them, were told that the dessert that we had selected would not be available until the evening!! I am more than disappointed with the lack of quality of service that I received today.

    The Turn House is a wonderful restaurant in Columbia. Beautifully situated on a golf course, it is perfect for patio dining in the spring and fall. The food is outstanding. While the servers try very hard, there just aren’t enough of them to cover the restaurant adequately. That’s the only complaint I have.
