    Molcajete beans and cheese marketed as mar y tierra.

    EXTREMELY OVERPRICED! I am not a big seafood eater but I came here to try some of the molcajetes so we ordered the mar y tierra one, it came with beans, chicken, beef, cheese, onions and 4 medium sized shrimps, BIG MISTAKE, it had more beans and cheese than anything else and lacked any flavor at all, for $50 dollars I was really expecting much better, the service was excellent.

    The food and beans were extremely salty!!! The quality of the food does not match how expensive it is.

    We enjoyed the food very much. I had salmon tacos, and my husband had the seafood stuffed coconut. Both were delicious!

    My husband and I have been to The Turf Room North Aurora, IL a handful of times and have never been…read moredisappointed. We went there yesterday for dinner and continue to be delighted with the staff as well as the restaurant as a whole. I am always pleased with the staff. Our sever, Deven was on her game. She was quite knowledgeable and knew her menu well. She started us off with the Waygu Wellington Poptarts. The flaky crust that covered the melt in your mouth beef was extraordinaire. For my entree, I had the Blackened Salmon on arugula. This was combined with shaved almonds, strawberries, avocado, and blue cheese! Ever hear someone get excited about a salad? Yes it was that good. Husband had the Sous Vide half chicken with his coveted homemade mashed potatoes and carrots. My husband, the chef was not disappointed. And no meal is complete in his book without dessert. We had the Flourless Chocolate Torte. Quite heavenly. But what meal is complete without dessert? As always look forward to our next visit there!

I ordered a drink but the rest of my table didn't, she rushed it over, then didn't come back to take the appetizer order for a while. Appetizers arrived fairly quickly once we ordered it, but after we finished the appetizers it took over 10 minutes for her to come back to even take the rest of our order. The entrees took a while, in the meantime, they didn't bother refreshing our water or even give us more bread to help bide the time. Throughout the whole time, she kept passing our table, didn't even bother to glance or check in, honestly I felt like she intentionally tried not to catch our eye. Even when we asked the person who delivered part of our meal if we could have more water, we didn't get it until we were half way done with our entrees. After we finished our entrees, she finally came back and asked about dessert, I gave her an eye roll and a tone and she finally felt apologetic. She explained there were only 3 of them for the entire restaurant. Had she bothered to explain right from the get go and checked in once in a while, I would have been more accommodating. But simply ignoring us and providing poor service was not an excuse. I couldn't even enjoy the food because the service was that bad. Still left 17% since I normally leave 20-22%. I will NOT come back, Turf Room underwhelming at best.

I loved the vibe in here, very lively and fun. We came in on a Sunday evening, so I am very interested to see how it is when the DJ is in and the disco balls are in full motion. They did have tvs and music videos going off the entire time, which added the to the vibe. I loved everything we ordered. The drinks were AMAZING! I loved the fact you can get their cocktails on the rocks or frozen! definitely enjoyed the tamarind drink!! To start we were given chips and salsa, this is how I knew the food was going to be good. I could have drank the salsa to be honest! We had the sopecitos trio and it was delicious!! my favorite was the arrachera with the chimichurri- literally to die for. We also got the Molcajete leña y mar and it was spectacular. My mouth was watering as soon as it hit the table. It had a mix of everything the steak, chorizo, cheese, shrimp- I loved it all!! We weren't planning on getting dessert, but we saw that the churros came in the carrito and we couldn't resist! Such a cute way to present the dessert, really felt like a celebration! I will definitely be back!!!
