About this restaurant

Great for outdoor dining
Charming
Neighborhood gem

Terratorry's ethos revolves around our local Farmers' Markets where we directly source our products, proudly along with nearby Ranchers & Fishermen providing simply the best of what California has to offer. As much as we try to keep it uber local, we are fortunate to have built relationships over the years that do expand this realm to find the best of the entire west coast. All of our ingredients are simply treated and from there we are able to create dishes that tell the story of the inspiration that is connected to these individuals.

Overpriced food, often cold, posing as a French laundry. The owners simply do not understand the market on Montana Avenue. I like a shiny car, too, but there’s usually a motor under the hood. As hard and as expensive as it is to open a restaurant, I wish them well. But unless they understand what the neighborhood wants, as opposed to what they think is haute cuisine, I fear this new enterprise will last even less time at this location than art table before it. Good luck. Do better.

This is one of my fav restaurants now in Santa Monica. The food is exceptional and excellent value. Service is personable and everyone enjoys being a part of the team and very customer focused. Wine list is great. I would like to see them being able to offer cocktails but not a deal breaker. The very best food!

Delicious food and beautiful decor and floral arrangements and great service! The burger and fries were some of the best I’ve had in the area. Would definitely go here again.

My family really enjoyed our meal in the outdoor space. The meal was delicious and you could feel the love that went into making it. The bone marrow and rockfish were devine. We will be coming here more often.

Overall our experience was “fine”. It’s a terrible price point for that location on Montana Ave. The food was overpriced for the quality. Our server was friendly and accommodating. One surprising thing was that they do not accept cash. It is not clearly stated on their website or at the restaurant itself. It’s only listed on their digital menu. There were no physical menus. We were weekly customers of the prior restaurant at this location for years, and we were excited to come back and try this new establishment. Unfortunately, we aren’t sure we will return.

My first time visiting this new restaurant. I had a lobster omelet, which was absolutely delicious. However, the omelet arrived on a large white plate all by itself. No fruit, no potatoes, no toast, not even an orange slice garnish. For the $30 high cost of the omelet, the restaurant needs to do way better. My sister got the lox and bagel plate, with only came with enough cream cheese to not quite cover one side of the bagel. Again, very tasty. I did see folks enjoying the burger and the chicken sandwich, which both came with fries and looked amazing. Please do better. I’d love to see this restaurant succeed.

Incredible food! This spot faces some big competitors on Montana Ave but it did not disappoint. Delicious and local farm to table food in a relaxed environment is all I need and this spot has it. One of the best cooked steaks I’ve ever had.

A pleasant new restaurant with outdoor and indoor seating. We ordered the Lobster Cobb salad and the fried chicken sandwich for lunch, which were both good, if not great. The service was very solicitous. They also were kind enough to turn down the music.

Came for their new dinner service! The Maine Cobb Salad was a standout - large portion with a generous amount of lobster and avocado! Can definitely be ordered as a main alongside a shared starter. The bavette was perfectly cooked. I was a little confused why it came with two creamy sauces (one with mushrooms, one without but otherwise quite similar, albeit tasty). The bone marrow was excellent, and a generous portion. The mussels come in a light curry sauce with lots of chillies, basil & confit garlic you can scoop up with the baguette. For dessert, we had the fruit crumble...it wasn't really a crumble and should have had significantly more topping to mix with the overly sweet and liquidy berry mixture, but the overall food experience was very good. Would like to come back to try their breakfast and lunch.
