This is the usual place we go to when we visit Santa Anita. Jimmy the host and Roy (our favorite server) are the most pleasant of people. We highly recommend it here. The food has never let us down.

We almost always get a table at Turf Terrace. The ease and comfort of the location and the TV's make viewing very easy. The front desk and the servers are very accommodating.
