Why Travelers Love terrasse Restaurant
Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.
When I don’t know where is good to go. I just come here because I know that it will be always perfect ❤️ inside and outside we’re always happy with the delicious food, good wine and professional service. Just one thing that we really miss here is the summer menu “ceviche“ 😃hope to have soon again. It’s not bad, but it’s not good either. Well… actually, yes, it’s good — but it’s definitely not Italian. More Mediterranean, I guess… or maybe that’s the most accurate word for it. We had linguine alle vongole (that’s what the menu said), but honestly, I’d rename it “Thai-style linguine with clams and spicy vegetables.” So, no surprises — you don’t expect a real Italian dish, more of an Asian twist, fun, and yeah, not bad at all. I decided to give a small star for the food — it’s good, but not really Mediterranean, kind of confusing. Service was excellent, thankfully. Atmosphere? Meh… it used to be better. Overall, pretty average experience. Rafael provided excellent service at Terrasse restaurant. The food recommendations he made were delicious. Rafael checked on us several times during our meal to ensure that we were well taken care of. We would like to go there again.

Lovely place, big windows overlooking the city streets and river. Service is excellent and food is very yummy. We were 4 adults and a child, everyone loved the meals and shared everything.

We celebrated our wedding lunch at Terrasse in the garden with about 30 guests, and it went far beyond our expectations. From start to finish, the service was impeccable — fast, attentive, and thoughtful in every detail. The food was simply outstanding, from the mixed colorful salad to the delicious dessert. Compliments to the chef for the incredible flavors and to the management for running such a well-organized, welcoming place. Highly recommended for anyone looking for top-notch dining and service!
