    Extremely busy Saturday evening at Terza. We were seated about 15 minutes after our reservation time. Not bad. Waiter was courteous & professional. Food was received quickly & in generous servings. Very tasty meals. My wife got a complimentary dessert in honor of her birthday. Enough ice cream to share with me. We would recommend Terza.

    Exceptional food!! We both really enjoyed every bite of our meals… from the delicious piping hot fresh bread wool I’ve oil & balsamic vinegar, to our wonderful Terza salads - arugula, fennel, & peppydews with excellent light vinaigrette dressing, I had the calamari - so fresh & light & tender! And my husband added the grilled shrimps. Wow!! We both got fresh pasta entrees - beautifully balanced & delicious! And we got a side of the crispy polenta. Fantastic!! We ordered the grilled broccolini and were disappointed it wasn’t grilled 🙁. And we tried the chocolate/almond/mousse dessert - truly a signature creation executed perfectly! We were blown away! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience.

    Good food, but small portions and high prices. The smallest portions we have ever had in an Italian restaurant. We were almost shocked when our meals came. Would not recommend this place because of poor value.

    We’ve gone to Terza several times and always liked it. The service and food was terrible this time. Each entree we ordered had something wrong with it. It was very disappointing.

    House noodles are worth it! My chicken was somewhat over cooked and my waiter was new and a bit cluncky, but the vibe was wonderful and I would go go back. The drinks and appetizer were nicely done!

    Kind of a dud for a waiter. Food was okay house made pasta was a little disappointing. Wait staff described a 1” wide noodle a little thicker than fettuccine.

    We eat at Terza whenever we are in Rochester for Mayo Clinic appointments. The food is great, as are the servers. We usually sit along the wall to keep our distance from other diners. I wish those two tops were a bit larger, but we make it work. We feel lucky that Terza is right across the street from our hotel.

    We had gone to a play we thought would be done before nine but went past so it was probably nine twenty when we arrived. My wife explained what happened and told the manager we would understand if they did not want to seat us. He said since we were there he could seat us even though there were only a handful of diners remaining. Our service was great and we did not feel as though the staff was upset by our lateness. The food, as usual was very good. All in all a great experience!
