    Fabulous again! Attentive and helpful service, attuned to our concert-driven timeline and on their toes despite what appeared to be serious under-staffing. Delicious food, at a good value, on Paella night. A bit chilly inside w/part of wall open, but otherwise great urban ambience. Only real irritation was from Open Table and the ridiculous bot-driven messages in advance :)

    The lamb riblets were fantastic (everything was, but I can't stop thinking about those riblets). Fun, interesting delicious cocktails. I highly recommend Terra Plata.

    The location especially the covered patio is perfect for occasions like Mother’s Day - large group accommodation worked very well. Our reservation was at 12:45pm and the team did a great job having our table ready on time. The wonder stopped by our table to say hello and that speaks highly of her caring for her customers and making time for hospitality! The service can be better knowing this is a moderate to high scale restaurant. One of our guests had an entree sold out, proper recommendations could have been provided as alternative. His final order sis not receive the side potato dish and the server provided an alternative that was cold French fries. The dessert order was served in an adhoc manner and not served correctly- we received different dessert items than ordered. To top it off, the server provided the bill in the midst of our dessert order good up. Our timing was approximately 2 hours, sure but for an order with about 60-80 dollars per head, customer service would a key! Let’s do better next time!!!

    The food is just delicious. Flavorful fresh and well balanced. Ambience is thoughtful and sophisticated and aligned with the food approach- simple natural and beautiful. The servers always seems to have a heavy workload with tables so it’s not the fastest- but the food is so enjoyable and the ambience is just the place where lingering a little longer is a pleasure.
