Our waitress Anezka was great and made our experience even better. The food was fabulous. My wife had the Chicken Parmesan, I had Bison Cannelloni, and we started with the Winter Salad. I have to say we tried a few times to get into LA TERRAZZA Restaurant and didn't succeed. Were very glad we didn't give up. Well done LA TERRAZZA!

I found La Terrazza and the menu and prices looked good compared to others in the area. We were quickly greeted and attended to our table. Server was really helpful with the menu and suggested a couple options as the menu was transitioning from summer to winter. We ordered a bottle of wine to start and white wine went really well with the warm maple butter bread and olive tapenade. We ordered the lobster risotto and the mushroom pasta rosettes. Both were so delicious and generous portions. Finished the meal with a lava cake and the hat trick coffee. The lava cake is flambéed at the table and was one of the best we have ever had. Overall great experience and food!

We will definitely return.
