I enjoy the Turf Club, but I don't think I would make a special trip just to go there. We do stay at SSR a lot, and often eat there multiple times when we do, so maybe that is why I would not make a special trip just to go there. Their menu rarely changes, which is not a bad thing, but after you have had every dish multiple times, it does get a bit old.
They can be a bit funky with reservations (but then so can all WDW). I have called for reservations at a given time (say 5:00 PM) only to be told none were availble, and then be given a 6:30 reservation. I showed up at 5:00 anyway (with a party of 5) to find maybe a dozen people in the entire restaruant. The hostess was just as confused as I was about why they said no 5:00 PM reservations were available. this has happend to me multiple times there.
So if there is a specific time that you want to eat, and they tell you there is no avaiability, there is a likely chance that if you walk up, you wil be seated. They do serve as the restaruant for the LBV golf course, so maybe the set aside a number of tables based on the number of tee time reservations? Who knows?
