We wanted our guests to walk into our venue and say 'WOW this is so Matt and Erin.' Mission accomplished! This was our one and only venue we toured. From the gorgeous courtyard where we were married, to the ruins where we took pictures, to the gorgeous reception space with its stunning original hardwoods and beautiful chandlers, it was everything we had hoped to find. Working with Allie was a dream - she transitioned out right before our wedding but their current venue manager, Brittany was absolutely wonderful and picked up where Allie left off seamlessly. Getting ready that day was so wonderful thanks to the beautiful bridal suite and my hubby-to-be was thrilled to have the grooms suite. We had viewed several online that provided no where for him to get ready - it's his day too! That was a must for us. Our guests loved wandering the property during cocktail hour and could not get over how beautiful The Washington is. We could not have asked for a more perfect day or a more perfect venue. I wish I could do it all over again!

Dining at La Sponda is a crap shoot. Here's why…read more Food is a 4-star. Cook staff is good with both the presentation and taste of the food. That's what brought us back. Unfortunately that's where it ends. Service is a 1-star. There seemed to be a language disconnect with the server. An overall near-zero experience. Our server was attentive to other tables seated after us who received their desserts before our entrees. Not one table check-in before, during or after the meal. Had to actually get up out of the seat to make sure the drink order was understood and it was right because the server did not seem to understand. Maybe that put the server off. We also flagged down other servers for assistance during the meal and even for ordering dessert. It took a long time to take payment for our bill. We almost got up to pay at the bar. Thus the crap shoot gamble at La Sponda. Atmosphere a 2.5 star. Loud atmosphere with a heavy metal music rotation. Good music, just not for this dinner atmosphere. Overall a 2.5-star on the strength of the food. We will not be back. Spending the money I did, even though the food is good at La Sponda, I don't want to risk a bad service experience again there. Not worth it for us but might not matter for others. Nevertheless - Caveat Emptor.

There are plenty of areas to set up for different reception types. I was there recently for business awards presentation and the room for presentations was easily divided off the main reception area after the cocktail reception and then set up was quickly changed to multiple dinner stations and seating. Outside is no less stunning and since it is next to a nature path it would allow for a lot of different back drops and locations for gorgeous photos.

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.
