    A must go! Attentive staff upon entering, piano player was engaging, the room was filled with diners who were dressed for a night out, our server,Jared, was informative on menu, wine and the restaurant seating options. He gave great recommendations. Extensive wine list. The amuse bouche to start was a nice touch - beets and marscapone on a spoon. The bread and garlic butter was so so worth it to have two! Eggplant rolatini,Halibut, Pork osso bucco and chocolate cake were all spectacular. Rebooked for next week.

    Our experience tonight was wonderful. One of the things I don't like about a restaurant is that it is too high of a noise level. I do not like having trouble hearing people at our own table. You don't have to worry about that at Terra Nostra. The tables are not on top of one another, like at other restaurants (Coopers Hawk). We will be coming back, and the food is phenomenal. It was the best linguine with clam sauce I have ever had in my life. Thank you, Terra Nostra.
