    Outside patio.

    I still like this place. The fish in my fish tacos were over-fried. And the music, with hard rock blaring, was too loud. But our server was pleasant and the traffic noise added to the Ramshackle mood. My wife enjoyed her Cuban and salad, which was quite large. The prices are reasonable.

    "Big Flavor in a Cozy Shack!" If you're anywhere near Ramshackle Cafe and haven't stopped in yet--you're seriously missing out. I ordered the Mexican Burger and was absolutely blown away. The flavors were bold and perfectly balanced, and the portion size? Let's just say bring your appetite! The fries were golden, crispy, and piled high--almost too much to finish (but not quite ). The homemade chili deserves its own standing ovation. It had this deep, rich flavor that tasted like it had been simmering all day. Every bite was packed with goodness. The interior was clean and inviting, and the waitstaff couldn't have been more pleasant. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely seemed happy to be there--which made my experience even better. This place nails comfort food with personality. Highly recommend!

    Better than last time. Highlights: awesome onion rings and happy hour $5.99 BOGO wine. The wraps were good, wrapped tighter than last time so didn't immediately fall apart. We are split about the fries. I hate them and my wife loves them. The beer selection could be improved. Service was outstanding. The atmosphere hasn't changed - still quirky. And this time around, no flies everywhere.

    Best wings in Lake Co. hands down. Big real wings, not the mini frozen one you get from many places. Variety of sauces.

    It's your typical bar food. Was pretty good. Fast and fresh with kind wait staff. I like the location, seeing as it is not far.

    I don't always give a five star review even if I really love a place because there's always room…read morefor improvement but Turners should have over four stars. I'm not sure why it's at 3.9 stars but hopefully this will help push it over the top. It would be nice if they stayed open maybe an hour later but that just means you need to go to dinner by 6:30 or so. We tried to go on Friday night although they were booked, but they told us you can usually come in and sit at the bar without any problem and they also told us they would call us back if there was an opening. They did call us back, but by then we had made other plans. So we were able to get in there on Saturday night. It's a dark restaurant, but very nice and homey. We had a comfortable and private boost. Our server was very personable, upbeat and guided us through the menu and gave some suggestions. The Manhattan cocktail, which I asked for with a little less sweet vermouth, was just perfect. The fried green tomato Caprese was absolutely delicious. They use local suppliers for their produce, and I presume for their fish and meat as well. The Caprese had a locally produced mandarin orange oil in it that really made the dish pop. The cornmeal coating on the tomatoes was perfect and crunchy, and the dish had just the right amount of mozzarella. My wife is a vegetarian and had the grilled vegetables that were also perfectly cooked and delicious with some of that mandarin orange oil. Her mother had the Duroc pork chop, which was cooked very much to her liking, and she also quite enjoyed the sweet potato pancakes that came with the pork chop. I love shrimp and grits and was all set to order some but then I saw some of the other mains on the menu and that's why I have to go back because there was a bluefin tuna dish with fried fried oysters and there was another grilled shrimp dish that looked delicious. We saw the prime rib go by because that's the special on Saturday night and that looked great too. But ultimately I did go ahead and get the shrimp and grits. The chef is from South Carolina and he's rightfully proud of his shrimp and grits. Lots of great flavor. The grits are slightly al dente and flavored with a pimento cheese that is really nice and there were plenty of shrimp and some bacon jam and some other tasty tidbits in there. I just loved it. Some of the best shrimp and grits I've ever tasted. I asked the waitress waitress which wine she would recommend with that and she told me about their whites, but I'm not a Chardonnay person so she suggested their Pinot Noir which I never would've expected, but I had a glass of it and it went perfect perfectly with the food. We live in Los Angeles, but my wife's mother lives near Leesburg and we will definitely be back to Turner's next time we visit. I wish I took a picture of the food, but it looked so good, we couldn't wait and just dove in. Highly recommended.

    The 4 of us had dinner at Turner's. The decor was nice, pretty dark, but had an open feel…read more Upon looking at the menu, I quickly realized that this menu was different from what I saw on Yelp. As a vegetarian and my wife being Gluten Free, we wondered what we would order. If we knew our friends better, we would have suggested going elsewhere, but did not say much. I saw that they have a side salad and wondered if they could make that into an entree portion for me. The very nice waitress came back with a resounding 'no', they could not accommodate. The menu was almost 100% meat or fish. There was one vegetarian plate, which was expensive and I could not see the value reflected in the rather large asking price. Instead, I ordered 3 sides, Brussel Sprouts, grits and sweet potatoes, each $5.00. They were all good with the exception of the Brussel Sprouts having a gas taste. So too much flame there. My wife eats meat and had the Prime Rib (first time in 20 years). She said it was good and it was $34. The Salmon was also $34. Our friends each had the blackened salmon and they were also $34. These came with 1 side. To us, we felt the food was overpriced. The mostly meat menu caters obviously to only meat eaters and the owner was not willing to make any changes as our friend wanted to leave the bacon oil out, and that didn't happen. I suppose they do not need our business and our friends felt the same way. Of course, after hearing such good things about the place, we were sorry we went there. Or course, if in the future the name of the restaurant comes up, we will share our experiences. Word of mouth advertising came be good or bad. Seemed like the waitress has had to give the 'no change' answer lots of times before. So, this was not our kind of restaurant as they didn't serve what we wanted. Oh well, we tried.
