Top Tags:

Located on the third floor of Eataly Boston, Terra is a unique restaurant inspired by earth and fire. The dining room centers around a wood-burning Italian grill, where the Terra culinary team cooks raw ingredients over burning flames, allowing the simple flavors to shine.

In every earthy dish, the fire’s smoked warmth rekindles our fundamental connection to the elements. Plentiful and playful, the grilled plates are perfect to share around the restaurant's rustic tables, especially when paired with seasonal drinks.

You used to have many more options for antipasti.... I would order 3 or 4 and call it dinner. Loved ananchini, artichokes (which you have) and would add 2 or 3 to that - made a lovely dinner. I cook and there is not much on the menu for a person who cooks. I like to get something different when I go out. The prices for everything except pasta for a main meal are high. Terra used to have a small grilled fish that was reasonable - that's gone. I will rethink my choices of places to eat from now on.

We had great service from our waiter, he made some excellent recommendations. Food was delicious, though some of our seafood was a bit dry/chewy. Won’t deter us from returning though- pasta was cooked to perfection, and all of our dishes were fantastic despite a few random ill cooked squid pieces. Highly recommend the side of beets- absolute perfection, and sizeable to share among three people. Dessert was great as well- perfect share portions . Will absolutely be back- this place is always such a beautiful experience no matter if you’re there for lunch, dinner, or just a glass of wine and a shareable app.

We have been to Terra many times. On this occasion, our waiter was preoccupied by one of the waitresses. And the sauce for the pasta wasn't quite as delectable as it has been in the past. But we still enjoyed the occasion.

The setting was lovely, high ceilings, glass roof, lots of plants. The food was delicious, and came out very quickly. The lamb skewers were amazing. And, thankfully they had tiramisu, my favorite, and it was very tasty, although a bit runny. The wait staff we interacted with were all very friendly, and great at their jobs. Looking forward to going back!

Food was excellent as always. We always come here when we come to Boston. Server was very sweet, but pretty absent. Didn’t check back very often, had to have other people track her down. She was pretty busy sweeping the floor. Also she was putting her hair up multiple times in the dining room which is not exactly dining friendly and didn’t wash her hands after sweeping or tying up her hair. That said, she was very helpful with suggesting wine etc.

I absolutely loved my experience at Terra. We had the fixed menu for the restaurant fest. Honestly, I would not have thought to order those dishes on my own, but they were spectacular. Great clarity to flavor in a way no other restaurant I've been to in the US is capable of. Service was equally excellent. This was my 2nd time there, and I will absolutely be going back.

We were pleasantly surprised by the courteous and attentive service. The food was well prepared. The burratta and squash dish was a disappointment, but the orrechieti with broccoli raab was outstanding as was the fettucine with beef and pork ragu. The wines were well representative of fine Italian wines.

We went for Sunday lunch, first time eating at Eatily although we have shopped there a number of times. The food is good and imaginative, not just "same-old." It was busy and quite noisy at that time - perhaps a little quieter on a weekday. The service was especially attentive and thoughtful.

We had an absolutely great time! Loved that you can access the brunch and full menus during brunch. The food was excellent - particularly the polenta with mushrooms truffle and pecorino and brunch carbonara. Drinks were great too - espresso martini, dirty martini, the mai tai - all well balanced and none too sweet.

Very disapointed. Actually, very, very disapointed. I brought friends to Terra for a night out expecting the same quality and service as the market. Boy, was I wrong. I don't think I've ever written a bad review before, and don't like doing so, but it was such an overall disappointing experience --from the service to the food. So much in fact, that I was left apologizing to my 3 friends profusely for the rest of the night. Eat downstairs if you must go. The service is equally bad, but the food is very good.
