    Non marinated ribs, seasoned with meatchurch dry rub and smoked for 6.5 hours. Great quality meat and wonderful selection of rubs/marinades.

    Great service and great food. Paid about $60 for 2 racks of non-marinated ribs, 2lbs marinated chicken breast and meatchurch dry rub. Staff was helpful and their selections are great, plus all the food was a hit. I'm looking forward to trying some of their prepared foods and other rubs/marinades. So glad I found a local place to get some delicious ribs! I'll definitely be back many more times.

    Just bought steakhouse marinated tips and jalapeño burgers. Delicious! This is going to be my go-to place this summer.

    Recently I was craving seafood BIG TIME. As a native Mainer who has lived in the area now for over…read more15 years, it can be tough to find places that serve "traditional" lobster dinners. (Typically consist of steamers, lobster, a baked potato and some corn on the cob if you're lucky). My husband found Turner's while doing a search for a place that would come close to giving me what I was looking for, and they delivered! We started off with the steamers. They're to die for... so tender, no sand in the bellies, and the broth? OOH the broth. It's delectable. It adds flavor that complements the clams perfectly (doesn't overwhelm them at all). My hard shell lobster was incredibly delicious. I'm usually a soft shell gal, but I will take whatever is offered - as long as the meat isn't tough, I'm fine to do the extra work. (It's part of the fun). The tail was split, which is helpful for people who don't know their way around a lobster- for me, I'd prefer it whole, so that's the only (extremely small!) thing I'd change next time. My baked potato and carrots were tasty and the waitress was attentive, kind, and she also had a sense of humor. My husband and I had an awesome evening, and we will be back!

    This is one of the most famous places in downtown Melrose. It's always packed, as it's the only…read more"white tablecloth" restaurant nearby. The food however is just OK. It's your basic Italian seafood place. There is a singular type of clientele inside, which tells you how your experience will go. We got tuna "tacos" (more like crudo) as appetizers. This was the best part of the night. The tuna was delicious. For our mains, I got the New England Bouillabaisse and my friend got a fish dish. The food was on the salty side, it's great to have this down the road instead of having to go down to north end. We ended the night with the flourless cake. Our server was very friendly! But the food was just ok. Drive a little farther and get some Mexico Lindo instead.
