    Italian Fisherman Omelet and Cucumber Citrus Dragonade
    Stan H.

    I had a coupon awarded to me and I could not use it at Media or Newtown Square. So I made more of a hike to Bryn Mawr. I didn't wait for the weekend because I was afraid I would forget to use it and I have a lot going on this month. I ended up trying their new Italian Fisherman Omelet which is lobster meat with prosciutto on an omelette w cheese. I chose greens and buttered sour dough for my add on sides. The greens were fresh and the bread was good. The omelette was reasonably fresh. Despite being a regional chain, you know your food here will typically be good quality. They have a reasonably big enough menu. I still prefer First Watch and Bittersweet Kitchen more personally, but I wouldn't say no to a Turning Point either. The waitress was nice even though I couldn't order the food until later on in the day due to work and all the patrons had left by 230 and it was about 235 PM. The website I used said closing at 3 but they underandably stop seating at 230 PM. I don't always like to leave a tip for take out but since they held the food for me past hours kind of and since I had an online coupon that I used, it was the least I could do.

    Not a clean place.

    This was the worst eating experience we have ever had. Watch people work out without orders taken. Wait 40 minutes for pancakes. Not a clean place either. The owners should close this place sell it and have someone else take over. Run very poorly. They should be embarrassed as owners.

    Cinnamon Roll Pancakes

    We stopped here for breakfast before looking at Bryn Mawr College. Extensive but standard breakfast/brunch fare but also very delicious. The dish that stood out (especially to the teenager) was cinnamon roll pancakes- they were huge and lots of cinnamon and very tasty (although as much a dessert as a breakfast:) Seemed to be mostly a slightly older set. Service was good.

    Really great service- friendly and fast even during the lunch rush. Bacon lollies are ok- kinda mushy. Very sweet and not much bacon flavor. Bacon isn't crispy or thick enough. Overpowered by apple sweetness Chicken salad- good and fresh very creamy with lots of Mayo. Thick hearty toast is a perfect compliment with the chicken salad. Lemon dressing is really good. Refreshing but very citrusy. Ranch has too much pepper for me. Balsamic is good basic flavor Chop chop salad is really good. Chicken tenders on a salad is always a great choice in my book! Seaside Jersey sandwich is good. Basic Turkey club.

    First time at Turning Point and it did not disappoint. The service was good, although the server had quite a few tables. It has a farm to table kind of ambiance. The food was amazing!! Shakshuka was just a tiny bit spicy, and had 3 poached eggs (more than I could eat) and the ciabatta was perfectly toasted Husband had the Wilbur skillet which he loved.

    Delicious Vegan Options and friendly professional staff ! Sit at the counter to chat with the crew.

    Nice experience! Place is open and airy - Staff friendly and service very good. There were 3 of us and we all honed in on the Eggs Benedict for lunch, something that you don't really see all that much on menus. The Avocado Smash Benny was very good and was Ciabatta bread, avocado smash, plum tomato, bacon, two poached eggs and hollandaise. (That counted for 2 orders). The Classic was also very good and was served on an English muffin, ham, tomato, two poached eggs and hollandaise sauce. Nice menu with many choices. Open for breakfast/brunch/lunch.

    I tried the lobster eggs Benedict on gluten free bread. The bread is much different from an English muffin and it's sad but they didn't have gluten free English muffin available. The lobster in the eggs Benedict was underwhelming. I would rather eat a lobster as is on its own, and an eggs Benedict on its own as well. The two together didn't go well together. Something about eating the egg and lobster together was odd to me, though on the menu it sounded amazing. My friend got a caramel latte and their special season pumpkin pancakes. They said that the pancakes were perfect. Not too sweet, but drinking the sweet coffee was overwhelming with the pancakes. They recommend the pancakes with a black coffee or the sweet latte with a savory dish. Overall, the brunch was yummy, but next time I would stick to regular eggs Benedict.

From the happy hour menu, the sliders, tuna nachos, and brussels sprouts were all very good -- special kudos to the brussels sprouts, which we went back for a second round of. Off the regular menu, the lobster bites were the standout: lightly breaded fried lobster, good enough to impress even though I'd just come from a week in Maine. The meatloaf was also excellent. The atmosphere is somewhat classy, the service was good, and the bartender was friendly. I'd definitely come back.

The food quality and prices were equally uneven. The very small portioned chicken dish (priced the same as the wagyu meatloaf) was dry and flavorless, and seemed as if it had been barely reheated in the microwave. The star of the meal was the meatloaf: perfectly seasoned with the most delicious, moist, and tender texture. But this dish was served with a very strange rubbery bacon covering some asparagus. The potato puree was very well executed, not gummy or over whipped, but silky and delicate. Strangely, the vegetables were also highlights: perfectly crisp grilled asparagus and Brussels sprouts. The most offensive dish of the evening was the dessert in the form of an apple crumb described as "flaky" and "buttery." I am not exaggerating when I say that this tasted like an Ikea cafeteria dessert that had been stuck in the display case for a month. Truly the most abominable, rubbery, dense, dry dessert I've ever had. I'm shocked they had the audacity to serve this. Service was mostly excellent, but we were confused as to why another table had the specials recited to them when we didn't. Perhaps this is decent place for happy hour, but I wouldn't recommend a full meal here.

Located in Bryn Mawr on Conestoga Rd, there is a private lot and street parking available. They have indoor and outdoor seating available. We were greeted by a friendly server before we even stepped inside. The host station is right inside and we were welcomed warmly once again. They offered us our choice of inside/outside seating. Being our first time there we wanted to see the interior. I mentioned this and they gave us a great table upstairs overlooking the restaurant. The store is decorated with a lot of Italian transportation...small cars and Vespas. I loved the high ceilings, and the upper level seating. They also have a huge TV on the wall, and decorated for the 2026 World Cup, despite Italy not qualifying! Our server, Alex, was very personable despite being busy with a large bday gathering and several other tables. He made us feel welcome as he went over the specials and took our orders. I got the chicken Parmesan which is my goto litmus test, while my date got the beet salad with grilled chicken. The food arrived promptly and looked and tasted delicious. My chicken parm was yummy, crispy chicken with melted cheese over delicious spaghetti! The beet salad was also well received. We saw several tables getting some delicious bread and asked for a basket. I thought it may be complimentary however it was 8$ a basket. They make it in house and drizzle it with olive oil. Served with some fresh rosemary and soft butter, it was delicious and well worth the price, just don't fill up on it! We were pressed for time so turned down their house made gelato, however we passed the gelato station on the way out and regretted this decision, it looked amazing! I mentioned to Alex that my entree was delicious but what set the restaurant apart was the service and atmosphere. It was warm, welcoming, and friendly. Some Italian places can be a bit on the cool/formal side so this was a nice change. Stop in and check it out, save some room for that bread and the gelato!

The service was very good: attentive and friendly. The ambiance is similar to Not Your Average Joe's in Ardmore with the upstairs/balcony seating and downstairs and big screen TV showing sports, but much noisier, especially as the upstairs also was filled with guests. By the time we left at 7:45pm after a 6:45pm reservation, it was loud enough that we had to fairly shout at each other to continue our conversation. The food was okay, except the salad which was excellent, but not worth returning for just the salad. - beet salad - 4.5/5, plentiful small diced red and yellow beets, avocado, arugula, a light dressing and burrato with crushed pistachios. a very solid starter salad and the server kindly split a large order into two small plates for us to share - fried calamari - 3/5, having just eaten at Estia last night which has a very good fried calamari, this one was not breaded as consistently and some of the pieces were a tad on the large side for a reasonable bite and too chewy to be cut with the fork or knife. - penne puttanesca - 3/5, my husband ordered this and while he not a self-proclaimed foodie, for him to say it was just okay means it was really just okay - linguine vongole - 3/5, points for the very plentiful offering of clams, i counted probably 20 generously sized clams (sometimes you get miniscule clams with this dish), but overall the sauce was too salty and there's not much you can do to fix that, and the linguine was a bit overcooked, definitely not even close to al dente We skipped dessert as by that point our ears were starting to ring with the high decibels coming from around us on the balcony and the floor below. It looked like a lot of people were having a good time so maybe it's just not for us.

Service: each person with whom we interacted (hosts, manager, food runners and especially our server...she was fantastic). Food: For the table, we got Calamari: very light and crispy, but the meat was nice and tender Pepperoni and soppressata pizza: excellent, with an amazing sauce, sausage and crispy outside tender inside crust. Dinner: The kids both got the Rigatoni Vodka. This is what I had the first time we visited. It was just as delicious. Packed with flavor and the sausage was perfect. Tender, and just a touch of heat. My wife got the Gemelli. A pistachio pesto - this was probably the best pesto I've ever tasted. Creamy, fill of flavor and a touch of acid that brightened it up nicely. Incredible. I got the Bucatini Amatriciana. Pomodoro sauce with guanciale. Blew me away. The pomodoro was unbelievably well balanced. Exact amount of sweetness, slightly acidic and the guanciale brought the salty note, in the form of crispy crunchy bacon flavor, but surprisingly tender. Blown away. We had to try dessert. Tiramisu: it was as good as expected. Very well made Vanilla Panna Cotta: this was exceptional (like pretty much the rest of the meal) delicate and creamy, and a huckleberry compote (?) that was insanely good. A touch of salt was in there to make it positively sing. I could not more highly recommend giving this place a try. Absolutely the whole package. Loved it and will be back!
