Our experience there for the 1st time was fantastic. Mainly thanks to our great & top-notch server Arely. She was very attentive(like the right amount & not over doing it attentive), great at explaining the menu, & had a great cheerful/friendly attitude. 10/10 recommend this place and her to be your server too

The upper valley might be sleeping on this place. Terra's is a must visit. I had the chilaquiles divorciados, both salsas were good. The table salsa was phenomenal, must try this. For drinks I had Americano with Oat milk. The Sangre Azteca (del maguey vida mezcal, hibiscus, lime, jalapeno) if it is not their flagship drink, it should be. The chicken and waffles are well made, chicken was tender, the waffles crunchy, fruit topping was plentiful. And a peach mimosa to wash it all down. We ordered of the brunch menu but will definite be coming back for the lunch/dinner menu. Looking forward to the Ribeye and Mole.

Great cocktails and even better food. Ribeye with mole and bone marrow was cooked perfectly rare and seasoned very well. Mole was the best I’ve had. Good selection of spirits, but very tequila and mezcal focused. Noche en Tulum and Sangre de Azteca cocktails were inventive, unique, and delicious. Only complaint is parking can be hard to find, but not uncommon for downtown areas

The food was excellent and atmosphere was very nice. Place is clean and rustic looking. Only problem theirs no parking. You have to find parking down the block or next street over.

Celebrated my birthday, husbands birthday, and our anniversary a few nights ago at Terra and couldn't be happier with our choice. I have Celiacs, and finding Gluten Free food in the area is difficult. It's not notated, but most of their menu is gluten free (and I did not have a reaction afterwards). The drinks and food were great. We loved the cornbread dessert. Our server was also attentive, helpful, and pleasant. Definitely recommend for a nice night out! Pictured are the Costillas De Elote and Ribeye & Mole

Great ambience. Food was excellent, but taco orders could have at least one more! We made a reservation, and I recommend if you are over the hill, to request chairs instead of stools LOL. They were kind enough to switch us to a booth with chairs and they even provided us with a birthday candle, which we forgot. We had a great time!

I love eating at Terras. It’s one of my favorite places to go downtown that creates such great atmosphere for dining out. It’s fancy but it also has such a nice feel to their design that makes being there so comfortable. I love the way my family and I are treated at Terras as well. We’ve never had a bad experience here as compared to other restaurants. Our server today, Karina was excellent. She was kind, attentive and never left our table unattended for too long! I highly recommend Terras if you’re looking for a nice, fancy place to eat at you can get your money’s worth here!
