It was a nice evening with good friends out on the patio. With an amazing view. It couldn’t have been any better. Food was great, drinks were cold and the staff were awesome.

Came in for a late Thursday lunch during the off-hours , and the service was still completely on point. Super attentive staff from the moment we walked in. We started with the seasonal citrus and beet salads—both tasted amazingly fresh and crisp. I saw a few new menu items and tried the Snake River steak, which turned out delicious and cooked perfectly. My wife got her go-to salmon and loved it as always. Wrapped things up with a solid crème brûlée and gelato. The place looks great, too. You can tell they keep updating the decor, and the vibe is easily one of the best around. Passed a big group of Googlers heading out as we walked in—it really is the go-to spot for Silicon Valley business lunches. Always a great experience here, already looking forward to the next visit.

Such a wonderful restaurant! Staff here is ever so friendly. Manager is a delight and stopped by our table to check in on us more than once. They made a great apéritif recommendation that was so good we went downstairs and bought a bottle! Food is always fabulous. One day I might get something other than the fornello pugliese but not this day. Terra really makes date night with the wife extra special!

Absolutely amazing food! We ordered the smoked trout and potato croquettes twice because they were that good. The marinated persimmons were an unexpected delight that kept us wanting more. But the popcorn with brown butter miso with furikake was a chef’s kiss. Don’t skip on the place if you are person who loves and appreciates great tasting food.
