Restaurant Review: Muss and Turners
Muss and Turners 5-28-2010
DH and I went back to Muss and Turners for dinner after trying it 2 years ago for lunch. At the time, we thought it was overpriced for mediocre food. M&T has matured into a full service restaurant that serves farm to table food for a (mostly) reasonable price. DH got the cold English pea soup for an appetizer. He said that it was good. I had a salad with goat cheese. I don't normally care for goat cheese, but this was very mild. DH had the "State Fair" fried pork sandwich as his entree. He did not realize when he ordered it that it was fried, but he enjoyed it. The accompanying white beans with bbq sauce were very good with a unique flavor. I had the Springer Mountain Chicken Tagliatelle with roasted chicken, tomato, and basil. Chicken in pasta is always odd to me as it was in this dish. The chicken was good, and the pasta was fine, but the flavors were strange together. Still, I enjoyed it. Dessert was a chocolate chip cookie that had just been cooked. The chocolate was ooey-gooey and warm. It was slightly undercooked, just how I like my cookies. DH and I will probably try it again for lunch this summer to try their sandwiches and other side items. The prices are more reasonable than the last time we were there.
The scene is lively. There were people of all ages. Although M&T has an outside patio for summer dining we sat inside because of pending thunderstorms. If the restaurant had been full, I could see it being very noisy. Service was adequate but not outstanding. I got the feeling that our young server had not been waiting tables for very long. He had to ask someone else for the answers to the questions we had, and he knew nothing about the wine list. The counter is open all day for those that want to purchase side items or food to go.
Pros: Good food, some organic and local food, dessert
Cons: Small Parking Lot, Must have reservations
Kid Friendly: Yes
