This is such an enjoyable place to eat! From the moment you walk in, a smile from D'Asia greets you and seats you! Relaxing and such a pleasant staff. I chose to sit at the bar where D'Asia does her magic with amazing drinks and coffee to start your day, prepared just the way you like it! Treat yourself and visit Turning Point! You will be glad you did! read more

The food was tasty and great service. The pancakes were not overly sweet and the potatoes were well seasoned. Restaurant was very clean and the ambiance was nice. Bruno was a great server read more

According to my husband, this is the best coffee he's had in Virginia. This little breakfast spot is about 20 minutes outside of Richmond and is well worth the drive. It's inviting, and clearly a local favorite because it fills up quickly. I'd recommend arriving early, especially on a Sunday, if you want to avoid the wait. The staff was welcoming, and despite how busy it was, the service was fast and efficient. read more

I took an opportunity to visit during a self care day. I sat out in the patio as the weather was perfect for it. The staff was amazing and I appreciate the varied of their menu. The fact that the French press coffee was lesser expensive than my usual place and order was a definite delight and plus. I enjoyed every bite and sip. I will definitely be back. read more

Really enjoyable little breakfast/brunch/lunch spot in the west end. This is a chain but the only location so far in Virginia. Space-wise it is wide open. Lots of high and low top tables, a counter, a large table (10 seats maybe) and lots of space in between. Everything is clean and bright. There is a large gas fireplace to one side that puts out PLENTY of warmth. Menu is very good -- see photos. Salads, eggs, smoked salmon, paninis, phillies, wraps, burgers, big waffles and pancakes. Don't skip past the cinnamon rolls, which come out hot and fresh and are iced table-side (!!!) Coffee is french pressed -- SIX VARIETIES OF COFFEES TO CHOOSE FROM. I really enjoyed the "Perfect Pear Flatbread" with the accompanying mixed greens. The flatbread has pears and ham and caramelized onions and arugula and a balsamic glaze. All components were bold enough to stand out. The flatbread itself was a bit hard to cut with the available knife so just crease it and then tear into it by hand. Wyfe's "Classic Benedict" was excellent -- great hollandaise and perfectly poached eggs. The only misstep on the plate was the breakfast potatoes. They were seasoned well and had great flavor but the cook was inconsistent -- some were hard like they had been sitting and some seemed undercooked. Not bad enough to send back but bad enough that we told the server. The server -- ZOIE -- is a charm! She was so attentive without seeming phony. We did notice more servers than a typical restaurant of this size would normally have. And listening to them work with other tables, everyone seemed professional and cheery and helpful. We will be back. (edited for typos) read more

I'd never heard of this restaurant chain until it came to Glen Allen area. The staff are all friendly and look forward to making recommendations upon asking. The coffees are all fresh and huge, and definitely worth a try. I've tried the seafood or shrimp omelette and they are huge. Probably a bit too much food for me. So on this particular visit I tried an egg sandwich. This establishment is from up North, so they had Jersey Pork Roll. So opted for that, which is always a treat and this sandwich was great. This is a cute smaller place that while it isn't local, gives the service and vibe of a local diner. I enjoy this spot to get a decent meal and catch up with friends over breakfast or brunch. read more

I am from New Jersey, so I was familiar with Turning Point walking into their Short Pump restaurant. My mom and I were seated promptly. Their coffee is delightful, so I started with a latte. For my meal, I ordered way too much food but couldn't help myself. I ordered the cinnamon roll pancakes, plus sides of pork roll and scrambled eggs, which also came with a salad. Everything was absurdly good. My mom had a chicken sandwich, which she loved. I appreciate that they expanded to Virginia soooo much. It's great to have them close by! I can't wait to return. read more

Turning Point is such a great place to go for breakfast. It's lively, warm and inviting and the hostess greets you with a smile soon as you walk in the door. The place was clean and everything is well presented. The menu contains so many choices, from french-pressed coffees, to lattes, fresh juices, pancakes, waffles and sandwiches. They even have vegan options which I thoroughly enjoy. The vegan pancakes are the best in the area but bring a hearty appetite for real. The first time we visited, our waitress was Dasia. Even though the restaurant was pretty busy, she greeted us with a warm smile and great attitude. She took the time to explain the menu and offer suggestions. We started with the french pressed coffee and drinks and hot cinnamon rolls. For breakfast we ordered the vegan pancakes and sub eggs, pavo cubano and berry chocolate pancakes with eggs. The entire time Dasia kept checking on us and keeping us informed on the status of our order. Once the meals came, she made sure we were satisfied with our food. Checked on us several times which was great service. Everything was really good and hot. Shout out to the kitchen staff and cooks. Dasia put the C in customer service. In a word she was very attentive, friendly and made the entire visit very pleasant and enjoyable. Highly recommend Turning Point read more

A really nice breakfast place that hits all the marks. Here's the deal: Ambiance is relaxed, with bright, natural lighting and a bigger seating space than I expected from the outside, able to accommodate parties up to 10. Extremely clean and well presented. The tables are a little close for my personal preference but that's just me. Service was with a smile. The menu was reviewed by our server along with specials and how to earn rewards. While we had a main server the style is a team service effort which was nice as we were very well attended. The food is good! The menu is more limited compared to some restaurants, however what we had was very good. I would much rather have options done really well than an extensive menu with mediocre dishes. Everything was fresh including the coffee. My wife ordered avocado toast, which she often has, and said this was the best she had in a a long time, with quality oil, a touch of lemon and a good wheat bread. My dish was an omelette which had plenty of ingredients and was cooked just right. Prices were average/ reasonable for portions and amount. Overall a very good experience and I would highlight the service as the extraordinary difference. The ambiance and food - good. 4.5 stars read more

A really delicious cozy breakfast spot! I went out on a super cold morning and sat by the warm fireplace. My waitress, Zamya, was attentive and super kind. I got your basic combo breakfast with a few modifications and everything came out hot and yummy. The unlimited coffee was only $4 - can't beat that. read more

This place is fine for a short pump meal, they serve both lunch and breakfast food, I got lunch my friend got breakfast. The rap I got was a bit underwhelming, but he said the breakfast was very good. It sounds like breakfast is the way to go here.

We arrived on a Sunday about an hour before they closed and it was still packed with a wait! Luckily there were 2 seats at the counter so we didn't have to wait - we were grateful but hoped being so busy was a good sign. It was! Our drinks (iced chai and hot chocolate) were delicious and our meals even better. The GOAT omelette and shrimp & grits were both delicious, as were the leftovers the next day. Our server Bruno was friendly helpful and took good care of us. The place was so cute and very clean and has great vibes. Will definitely be back! Gotta try a cinnamon roll! read more

I met a friend for lunch and we were both impressed with look and feel of the restaurant as well as the service and food. The staff seemed very eager to serve and the manager checked on us several times. I ordered the pick two and got the chop salad and the chicken salad sandwich. Both were excellent and the salad was big enough to fill me up and I took the half sandwich home. My friend ordered eggs and her meal was cooked perfectly. The only complaint was she felt like the potatoes were not very tasty. I will definitely be back. This restaurant is much needed in this area! read more

The new TP in Glen Allen is a nice addition for breakfast. The atmosphere is casual but cozy. The servers are friendly and actually have personaltities. They didn't serve alcohol but were told by the end of the month, that'll be corrected. Just to be clear TP has no connection to Turning Point, USA. They are a franchise and I believe it started in NJ-no relation to the Kirk's. If you want a great place for breakfast, check this restaurant out. Now all we need is one to open in Chester!! read more

I went here for my birthday brunch! I am so glad that area has a brunch place now!! It was magically decorated and was very very busy! The staff was amazing and went above and beyond to make your time there very special. I got Strawberry pancakes and a delicious and beautiful coffee and they had almond milk! I will be going back!! read more

Saw the sign for this place a few weeks ago, but knew they were not open yet. Went today on a whim and it was their first day, soft opening! I usually make it a rule not to frequent a brand new restaurant to allow them to work out the kinks, but I decided to stay and try it out. Henry, our server, was very kind and came promptly to our table. The food came out quickly and was ample and delicious. The place was bright and welcoming. I did a half salad/half sandwich combo and the salad was huge! My daughter had the avocado toast, also enough to feed 2 people. They have a great selection of coffee, teas and juices too. Did not notice any kinks that needed working out! I hope they do well in this location. Good value for the $ read more

We first got to the restaurant and were told we would have to wait 15 minutes. That was not the case. We waited around 50 minutes and there were 10 empty tables when we were eventually sat. The waiter was prompt and nice, however he was forgetful and didn't remember to bring out some of our food. The food was good though, no complaints with that. Overall a cute restaurant but I wish the experience was more satisfactory. read more

3.5 - good looking interior. Staff was nice. Got the skillet and cheddar grits. Came out more Luke warm than hot. Food was good but wasn't great. Had some smashed avacado on it, but about half of it was brown and nasty had to pick it out. At a $20 price point for these 2 items I expected more. Diners beside me had the cinnamon rolls that looked pretty good. And an egg white omelette that had a wedge of avacado on top that looked good, unlike my smashed avacado that was hidden under my overcooked scrambled eggs. Overall a little disappointed based on the yelp reviews but may give ot another chance. read more

Alexis was our waitress and she was so informative , she recommended awesome food, and It came hot and it came fast. Customer Service was grade "A"! looking forward to dining there again.

Good service and attentive staff all around. The food was mixed. I ordered the lemon blueberry pancakes and was very please with them, I would get them again. My wife ordered the shrimp avocado omelet and this was a big let down. The toppings inside were too numerous and created a soggy center that was not appetizing and we couldn't eat it. The potatoes were good though. We will come back and try to give them another shot. read more

After church my best friend and our parents love to go for brunch/lunch. My mother had seen the restaurant before it opened and we made note to come.

Nothing to complain about. Very open air space with a lot of wood. French press coffee seemed to be featured. Breakfast options were generous. Friendly staff. Only downside was that the grits have cheese but nowhere did it say that they did. But they were happy to remove them from my bill. read more

I love breakfast and here they do breakfast and lunch all day, such a dream. I got the Martha's Vineyard salad, my mom got the breakfast combo, and my sister got the huevos rancheros.

Service and staff were stellar. Restaurant ambiance was great. Giving 3 stars because I really want to try breakfast before making a final decision. Decided on lunch for this visit. Ordered the Nashville Hot Honey Chicken wrap and the Roadhouse Bacon stack. Both were disappointing. Starting with the wrap. Very little flavor no "Nashville hot". Definitely needs an additional element. Perhaps a spicy sauce? Maybe a spicy aioli? Quite dry. Next up the stack, could have been a winner...Too much onion, not enough spinach and bacon. Tasted like a simple caramelized onion sandwich. Side of potato's were flavorless. Fingers crossed for a better breakfast experience. read more

Great breakfast restaurant. The service was friendly and attentive without being a bother. I had the shrimp and grits and while it wasn't a completely conventional version, it was quite good. The French press coffee is great and has a variety of options to suit your particular preference. If I had any advice for the owner I would suggest calling the "Yankee Shrimp and Grits" something else when the restaurant is south of the Mason Dixon line. read more

This was our first visit. What a delightful surprise! Food and service were wonderful. We'll definitely be back.

Growing pains likely. They have only been open for 2 weeks so maybe some of my experience is related. Service was on the slow side. Items on the menu were unavailable. We arrived at 10:38am for brunch. Seated immediately on a Saturday without a reservation - which was unexpected. The ambiance is very nice and bright. There were only 2 bars of LTE but they have free WiFi. The menu has a good selection of items. The prices are on the higher side. For example, there is a 32oz French press coffee for $10. There is a breakfast entree for $18 that is a power bowl, pancake and chicken sausage. Check the menu beforehand if that is important. There was a table top display touting their homemade cinnamon rolls. I started ordering that and an iced tea (which is on the menu) at about 10:45am. At about 10:50am, the waitress came back and said they don't have iced tea and they don't have the cinnamon rolls. We just decided to order our entrees at that point. At 11:05am, the waitress returned and mentioned the entrees would be delayed. We got a comp order of fruit and some cookies. We got our food at 11:15am. On the upside, the waitress was very nice and apologetic and all the food tasted great and arrived piping hot. It would have been a better experience, if the manager came over to chat about the delay and out of stock items that were advertised on everyone's table and no brewed iced tea (also on the menu). 3.5 stars read more

Third time here and it gets better and better everytime! Love the Costa Rican French Press Coffee and the Protein Pancakes. We also tried the seasonal hash skillet with sweet potatoes, sausage, eggs (amazing!). Kids had the cinnamon swirl pancakes ans s'mores pancakes and they were a hit! Servers and manager are always attentive, friendly, and on point. Thank You! read more

The service and the food were great. I ordered the salmon Benedict and my boyfriend had the chicken and waffles. The red onions on the Benedict were delicious and crisp. The potatoes on the side weren't very crispy which is my only negative. My boyfriend felt like we were rushed out at the end so that's the only thing to consider. read more
