                                    We have been coming for a long time to Terracotta Cafe. Great service as always, and some interesting new items on the menu. The salad I got was tasty but the steak addition was a little on the tough side. Little surprised to see bread and butter for $7 but everything seems to be more expensive nowadays. It was an expensive lunch but still worthwhile.

                                    Good food, over priced on drinks and mains. House Malbec was $14 per glass. Main dishes were smaller than expected. For example, scallop dinner only had 3 scallops but was more than $40!

                                    Lovely, charming! Best patients excellent food. I have NEVER been disappointed with my meal, summer or winter. Noise level distracting but I’m sure you have considered how could it be better and keep the ambiance. Enclosed seating booths maybe.
