**Our menu currently features a six course Chef's menu only.**


Our six course Chef's menu at Tersiguel's is a combination of authentic French-style cooking and rustic country fare reminiscent of cuisine found in Tersiguel's original home of Brittany, France. Tersiguel's cuisine is reflective of the seasons, with a garden that produces lettuces, herbs, vegetables, fruits and edible flowers. Tersiguel's is quintessential French Country "from the farm to your plate" cooking. Chef Tersiguel describes his food as "French soul food". The Tersiguel family has operated one of the regions best restaurants for over 45 years and continues this tradition with annual ratings of "Best French Restaurant" from the Zagat and Baltimore Magazine.

    Charlie has made Tersiguel’s my family’s favorite restaurant. We live out of state but make a visit every time we’re in town. This time we were celebrating an engagement and the restaurant was very accommodating and made the experience so memorable!

    This is truly an exciting experience. The chef decides what to serve based on what is fresh at the market that day. The service is far superior to any other experience we have had. The five servings were creative and delicious. We felt like we were in someone's home. We would recommend you get the wine pairing. This is the place to go for special occasions.

    Excellent 6 course menu. Chef driven selections that show a capable and creative use of flavors and textures. My partner loved the meat courses and we both enjoyed the fish preparations including local fish that are are a rare treat. Warm hospitality and charming atmosphere makes this a place for a special dinner.

    I don’t understand why you would have two different meats as course number 4 and 6. I would prefer to have a menu and order what I like best, if I’m going to spend that kind of money, I don’t want it to be a surprise. I didn’t like the response of servers, had an attitude, when my guest and I found out we were having meat. Neither one of us eats red meat and the reply was “yes” you should have said something earlier. If it’s a surprise how would we know!

    This was our anniversary dinner and we were blown away. The tasting menu was exciting and delicious with an incredible depth of flavor. It was a fun night, and I loved not knowing what was coming next. We opted for the wine pairing, which perfectly complimented our meal from start to finish. The atmosphere was small and intimate. It felt like Chef was cooking just for us. Our wait staff was knowledgeable and didn't miss a beat. Looking forward to our next visit.

Meals were a mixture of many kinds of flavors perfectly paired with the right choice of wine. Week worth the money for a special occasion

    We have always loved Tersiguels, but we had not been back since the new format of the fixed chefs menu. We looked on Facebook to see what this weeks menu was, and thought we would try it, even though some of the things listed were not our favorite choices. We ended up being amazed by how things we didn’t even like we’re transformed by the creative Expert touch of the chef. It’s really one of the best meals we’ve had in a long time. Charlie is so incredibly welcoming and explain some of the unusual ingredients that we were not familiar with, although we loved them. We added the wine pairing which we felt was a great value and complemented the meal perfectly. The ambience is perfect, quiet piano music, gentle lighting, and enough room between the tables that you weren’t hearing everyone else’s conversation, as happens in some restaurants. We were absolutely delighted, and plan to return soon. Highly recommend.

    We went to Tersiguel’s for a special date night, after hearing that it somewhat recently changed to a chef’s menu format. Each course was very tasty, as were the wine pairings and cocktails. We also thought the price point was a good value, and felt pleasantly full upon leaving. Very glad we chose that as a date night experience!

    Each dish was a surprise as the meal is preset. Each dish was a delight. Lisa was wonderful in detailing what was in every sauce and what was in every bite. Her welcoming persona was most inviting and only added charm to the evening. Tersiguel's is a special place. For our family it always has been and Ellicott City floods nor Covid have changed a thing. I hope this restaurant carries on for a hundred years!

    First visit to celebrate our anniversary. We were greeted and allowed to select the table we preferred. We were early so had most tables empty and Charles the excellent Maitre d was very cordial and friendly. The service was also very good. We had a 6 course chef’s tasting menu every course was outstanding. We appreciated that they offer the option of a corkage fee and brought our own wine. Overall a great meal with excellent service. We are so happy to find another outstanding restaurant in Ellicott City.
