As a family we have been going to Rosella for years but didn't have a great experience last time.....but I wanted (for old time sake) wanted to give it another go. Well it was well worth it - had such a lovely evening and staff were great as was the food. Perfect in every way so I would highly recommend it albeit I don't want to recommend it too much as I won't be able to get a table next time 🙃

We had a lovely evening at Terra Moderna. From the first sip of wine and appetizers to a tasty main course of fish and chicken. The dinner was great, but the service was exceptional. We had the lovely Lara take care of us. She helped us choose the wine, appetizers, and main courses. Throughout the dinner, she was always just a wave away. Give Terra Moderna a try and don't forget to ask for Lara if your partial to exceptional service.
