Lunch at the Turtle features soups salads and a variety of sandwiches on savory house made breads. We buy our hamburger and eggs locally from Novella Newman's Ranch, cheeses from Texas dairies, and during market season our vegetables come from our farmers market and CSA Windy Hill Organics. Much of our meat is butchered in Cross Plains and grown by local ranchers. Dinner can be casual or formally coursed. We serve dinner by reservation on Friday and Saturday evenings featuring live soft jazz.
