The menu for lunch is extremely limited. Our waitperson had too many tables so the service was spotty.

First time here - went for lunch with a friend, & we both only had 1 1/2 hours before we had other oblligations. We did have reservations & arrived right on time. The outside seating is lovely and so very nice. The menu is small but offers good options & we enjoyed the 2 sandwiches we ordered. The problem was in receiving our order. After waiting 30 minutes to be served, I had to find the waiter to let him know that we were running out of time. Our food did arrive about 45 minutes after we placed our order, and luckily the waiter brought our bill quickly, so we were able to get to our meetings. I would go back, but not if I wasn’t able to have a very long lunch.

Cafe Terracotta has such a cool and intimate vibe, nestled in an old house with exposed brick plus a lovely patio. The menu always has something new and interesting, the cocktails are a delight, and the service is consistently good.
