Il Terrazzo

Great spot along the Marina with very poor service and mediocre food. We got there around 4:30 on a Friday and sat outside. Had a few appetizers (delicious), some drinks, and ordered 2 pizzas. Both pizzas were covered in so much sauce and melted cheese it looked like they had water sitting in the middle - which made the pizzas soggy and inedible. On top of the bad pizza, we ended up having to bus our own plates (no one came to get them or our drink cups and we had to set the dishes on the ground when in the pizza came). We had to go inside to get silverware and napkins, and basically had to take care of ourselves. As a note, it was not busy at all (empty tables everywhere) so no excuse for just being behind and slow on the service.

Amazing pasta and great wine selection in a tranquil setting for watching the sunset on the Williamette River. We had dinner at one of their tables outside on a perfect summer evening and can’t wait to return to try more pastas!

We had an amazing date night experience at this quaint restaurant. Our meals were fresh and cooked to perfection and they had a huge wine selection to find the perfect pairing. We will be back the next time we're in Portland!

I went to Il Terrazzo last weekend for the first time and had an amazing experience! We did the chef’s special and it was exquisite. Michael is so talented and generous. Every plate we had was better than the last. It’s a nice space with beautiful water views. I will be recommending to everyone!

Gusto Italiano in America? I'd like to think so! This place is wonderful! They really care for their customers, and they have GREAT expertise in pairing wines to foods, and in what order. Plus, they answered my tough questions of food choices. LOVE it! Food is great! People are wonderful! The view is to die for! Started off my trip to Portland with a bang coming here!

They do not take reservations for lunch but you didn't need it for when we came (week day in the winter). They do take reservations for dinner. This place overlooks the river with seating outside for warmer days. Food was great and all of the pasta seems to be made in house. Great wine selection as well. Came for a work lunch but will come back for a date night with the wife.

Italian Baseball at the Portland Waterfront? Whot? Yes. IL TERRAZZO is where their Italian Cuisine dishes send you outa-the-park like a Grand Slam. Try the Bolognese with San Marzano tomatoes (Ragù della Domenica), the Sweet Italian (sausage) Ragù, the Bruschetta, and the Burrata. But it’s The Whole Enchilada- the Staff, the View, the Ambience, the Cannolis… the Everything. We’re visiting from the Other Washington… DC. Go ahead and Make Us Jealous … by Treating yourselves to an Amazing Experience. Mangia. Tutte bene.

My husband and I are in Portland for part of our honeymoon and made a reservation at Il Terrazzo-we were not disappointed. They were quite busy, but did a fantastic job with the team they had. Even while we were waiting for our table they checked on us to assure us they’d be seating us as soon as they could. The staff was absolutely wonderful, and the food was phenomenal. I cannot recommend the Alla Monzese enough. My husband got the lasagna which was also fantastic. Great wine selection! Sitting right outside with a view of the harbor was delightful. We would absolutely come back on our next visit!

we hosted our second company party at il Terrazzo. they are so easy to work with. gave us special appetizer menu. had delicious cocktails plus wines available. made our group feel special and the atmosphere is great! we highly recommend ail Terrazzo!

What a night spending it with the amazing staff at IL Terrazzo! Brought my team in for a celebratory dinner that I had the great fortune of planning with their gracious host, Libby. She helped with every detail from securing our private room, selecting the menu of chef prepared gems, pairing wines, making sure everything was perfect upon our arrival, and ultimately spending the evening giving our team the best dining experience. The food - perfect, the wines - perfect, the service - perfect, the space - perfect, the staff - perfect! Il Terrazzo is an absolute must if you enjoy high quality traditional Italian dining surrounded by an amazing staff. Thank you Michael and thank you Libby. We'll be back when we return to PDX!

What a strange restaurant. The food was fine, and I didn't mind the portion size as I'm not a big eater, but if you've got a healthy appetite be sure to order appetizers and a salad. There were no drinks on the menu other than alcohol. If you're not having alcohol, you can choose between still and sparkling water. Which is kinda weird but not the end of the world. Waitstaff was inattentive. It was a slow meal, not due to a pleasantly relaxed ambiance but because the waitstaff really just didn't seem to care. And there was just...some guy? Some guy was just sitting on the sofa (why is there a sofa in the middle of the restaurant?) drinking wine and occasionally chatting with the staff. It was not at all clear if he was a customer, a staff member, maybe connected to the staff somehow, no idea. But it was weird. I wouldn't come to this restaurant again on purpose. If someone offered to take me out to dinner here I wouldn't insist they change plans or anything, but the whole experience was just so odd. (Also it looks like the owner comes on here and makes creepy/vaguely intimidating replies to low-star reviews, which is gross.)

First I would like to let you know that there is a time limit on the tables. There was nothing on the menu, website or from the wait staff that told us that. Once we paid our check one waitress said stay as long as you like followed by another waitress telling us we needed to leave because they had another reservation for the table. The location is great. The table/chairs not so comfortable. We had a reservation. Somehow we ended up with two waitresses and were asked the same questions twice... Very odd. We both had the traditional Bolognese... The noodles were good but the sauce mediocre. The tiramisu was delicious. Unfortunately we won't be back. The whole ambience and situation pretty much ruined our evening.

Overall great experience. Delicious food! Friendly staff. Relaxed pace for service - some might say it's slow but we got the sense it was intentionally paced to be that way. Tasted some wine before we ordered a bottle - nice selection. Got the Gorgonzola pasta and it was incredible. Husband got puttanesca and he loved it. Chocolate mascarpone cream for dessert was fantastic. Would have liked to sit outside but it was 90°+, so we will have to come back on a cooler day!

Highly recommend this place and reservations. Best Italian restaurant I have been to! Had 3 out of town folks wanting something local and it did not disappoint. Be ready for longer wait times in general but the staff communicates it upfront but makes up with hospitality! I recommend inside as the local heathans are in full effect due to lack of local government support.

This was a last minute decision since we were down by the marina and it was very nice. We were seated in the bar, which was cozy and had a nice view out over the river. D'Layne was our server and she was so helpful. She'd actually tried most of the menu and so could give us good advice, which we needed since most of the dishes were unfamiliar. We started with the soup of the day and the Caesar salad. Both were good but the soup - tomato bisque - was rich and creamy and perfect for a cold wet winter night. The fresh mint popped and set it apart from the usual bisque. We then had the Boscaiola and the Burro Di Salvia. The Boscaiola was rich and creamy with sausage and mushrooms. The Burro was delicious and light - a sweet potato ravioli with sage. We finished with the cannoli. My favorite was the rum raisin. This is a great option on the waterfront.

I absolutely love this place!! The food is delicious, the staff is super nice and friendly, and the location and view is perfect. We have been a couple times and I highly recommend it. You definitely need reservations and on a nice day/night sitting outside is the best!!

From the moment we walked in the door, the staff appeared stressed and were not welcoming We made a reservation, and we're looking forward to sitting outside. However the staff was unwilling to seat us at the one open outdoor table because it was "in the wrong section". So we left.

Excellent food, excellent service, super relaxing atmosphere! I was on a road trip up to Seattle and rolled into Portland with no plans, and just picked this spot based on location and reviews, and wasn't let down! For my first time ever stopping in Portland, it was perfect!

Where do I begin??? Service was so slow and there was no acknowledgment from our server for easily 20 minutes. We were ready to get up and leave and then he came out. The only reason he came out to our table was because the table next to us went inside to ask for their check. I'm mad at myself for not taking that queue and leaving. The day was beautiful we wanted to dine outside on the waterfront and I had this place on my list to try. We were at a Yelp Elite event a few doors down and this place was recommended to us. We placed our order all at once and waiting so long on the appetizer to arrive my husband walked down the block to go extend our parking. Well when dinner arrived it wasn't even the entree my husband ordered. The waiter apologized told us to snack on the plate he brought out and he would go place a Re order. When my husband's Carbonara finally arrived it had so much cracked pepper it was overwhelming. There was pepper throughout the dish and a huge pile on top. Hoping this was just a fluke with a series of unfortunate dinning experiences Safe to say we won't ever return and we're kicking ourselves for not getting up from the start!

Delicious soup and olives. It was a little difficult to get a table (came here during a Saturday in the summer). Servers were all friendly however. Ambiance is really nice when not in such a busy hour! Will be coming back if I have the opportunity.

Superb! It's not often my wife gets excited about a place, it has it all! The quality of the food for the price is spot on and the selection is good but not too much and it seems like it changes with the season as some of the photos on other reviews were not on the menu (which we love - you get a different experience every time!) The pasta is delicious and really high quality ingredients used with much care taken in the firmness of the pasta (super important) They have an incredible wine selection and their outdoor seating space is just fantastic, you could sit there enjoying the view for hours Also our waitress was so nice and experienced, she came around just at the right time and genuinely was happy that we were happy about the food :) And the view of the Willamette river, can't beat it! Highly recommend this place and we will be back! Even our picky seven year old didn't complain and actually liked it too!!

Went to dinner on 9/30 with two others night before the Portland Marathon. We started off with the Bruschetaa, that was fantastic then I ordered the Sweet Italian Ragu...tasted so good their meat sauce was fantastic. Our server Emma was very patient as the 3 of us were catching up I can say I'd definitely be back if ever back in Portland some great Italian food

Don't let the hunt to find this intimate restaurant have you second guessing your destination! It is on the boardwalk nestled right up alongside the Willamette River. My partner and I ordered bruschetta as a starter, and the ingredients were a great mixture of crisp, soft, and firm. Perfecto! I had the sweet Italian Ragu, and I can easily see why it's a popular dish. I ordered a glass of wine on a whim which I didn't quite prefer (entirely mu fault!) and the kind server dismissed it from our check and recommended a wine that was delightful. I recommend this place! Great food and servers and a beautiful view!

Everything and everyone here made for a wonderful dinner experience for my husband and I. Even the vegan pasta dish was delicious! Highly recommend.

I recently visited Il Terrazzo after several attempts of making it here and it did not disappoint. Erin is so warm, welcoming, sweet and funny. She made our groups' first experience so memorable and not to mention, delicious! Everything from the wine, to the bruschetta, to the bread, to the food and dessert was delicious and the Erin is just so lovely! Thank you, Erin, for a fantastic evening! We will be back for sure. The Tiramisu is decadent and perfect! And I recommend the special wine. It's a very cozy restaurant, too!

Retaliation for bad review. Customers for over 5 yrs from when Chef Bracamontes amazed us with his creations, we had given this place a 5 star review, however, our recent experience forced us to modify it. It is not about the food, unfortunately we never ate our pasta since it took over 52 minutes to make it available after we finished our salads. We pre-paid, waited at the front desk for a partial to-go order ; we had tickets for a show 2 blocks away. Food was placed in our trunk and when we got home after 3.5 hours it was a lump of gummy crap that ended up in the trash can. The upsetting issue was that this manager called us shortly after we left and began to explain that if we have tix to shows near by, we better show up earlier as it is suggested on website. Well, we do this about a dozen times/yr. We pointed out to him that his website also states "IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO DO SO, PLEASE CALL US AND PRE-ORDER YOUR APPETIZERS SO THEY ARE READY UPON YOUR ARRIVAL". We don't get appetizers nor desserts so we didn't pre-order anything. We never got an apology from this person, only condescending reprimands! He suggested next time we alert our waiter that we have a show to attend as we place our order. Well .. our waiter, Adian, was on top of it as "HE" was the one that asked if we are attending a show. Adian apologized several times for the kitchen delays ... this person then said: "well then, I will have to have a chat with that waiter" .. way to go, throw the great waiter under the bus but don't take any responsibility for your inability to manage & lead. This vindictive man took the time to actually have our 100 points on OpenTable reservation reversed and deducted from our account (Confirmation #: 24595) by falsifying a cancelling of our reservation 2 minutes after our conversation ended as if we were a no show. Seriously? That jeopardizes our OpenTable account. We have the Visa receipt & original OpenTable confirmation thanking us for the "Check-in". We filed a formal complaint with OpenTable against retaliatory actions by restaurants for negative reviews. We called the next morning to get his name & were told that was Michael K. himself, the owner... & manager .... + also that night's line cook. Wow .. a triple failure. Michael, mistakes happen, all you had to do was say we dropped the ball on this order. We hope you treat your wonderful staff with a lot more dignity & respect than we were treated. Lastly, at the start of our last phone call, you proclaimed " ... you are on a recorded line", that automatically grants both parties equal consent for that 4 minutes & 34 second call. Defamation: the act of communicating false statements about a person that injure the reputation of that person

First of all the service is amazing here. We showed up as a party of 6 including a 5 yr old and a 2 yr old, and they did all kind of stuff to make the meal as pleasant for the whole party as possible. They brought lemonade for the kids, pen and paper for them to draw and check with them frequently. The fresh pasta tastes very good, I loved my Tartufo which was Truffle pasta. I could never eat enough of it The Ravioli was a bit salty (hence the 4 stars). Our party also ordered bunch of appetizers, Bruschetta, Burrata, bread and Salmon. Bruschetta was crunchy but under-seasoned. Burrata was ok, but you have to order bread with it. The Salmon dish was cooked Salmon, and we were expecting raw/smoked. Overall good food and amazing service. Will definitely visit again when we are in the area.

Drinks: - We got a bottle of the Katari San Giorgio, it was refreshing. If you're looking for something dry, with a good finish, and smooth on the palate, this is the one you're gonna want to get. Very inoffensive white wine Food: - I got the Boscaiola ravioli, it was pretty oily but meatiness of the dish was nice. I liked the texture of the ravioli, but I can't help but feel I'd like the pasta version of this more. Honestly the mushrooms were the highlight of this dish - We also got the Bruschetta for the table. The bread was very crunchy, there was lots of acidity from the tomatoes. The herbaceousness (if that's even a word) from the basil really takes over after a couple chews, so if you're not a fan of basil it may be best to avoid this one. It's a good dish though Ambience: - The seat we got was next to the window towards the wall on the left when you walk in so we had a great view of the bridge and the water - The space itself is stacked full of wine, so if you're a wine fan you'll have a field day looking at all the labels - There was some nice furniture and a tv playing an old movie inside Overall: Our service was slow, the staff was nice enough to serve some snacks (nuts and cheese) for us while we waited. The gesture was nice, but we waited over an hour so I was hoping for something that would really blow me away (maybe that's just a bias I have), but just felt like it wasn't worth that long of a wait. The wine was good, our server was nice, but unfortunately this is a one and done type of experience for me. I honestly would still recommend it though. The view is nice if you get a good window seat or an outdoor seat, so it'd make a great date spot. Also walking along the water to get to the restaurant was a cool experience too.

So glad to finally give this place a try after eyeing it all the time when I walk by the waterfront. The inside couldn't be cozier. Spacious with plenty of tables and booth areas. Well-decorated with OG looking photos. Staffs were super friendly and professional. They recommened up great dishes and drinks. We started off with the Tampenade which was very delicious, perfect balance between savory and citrusy. Served with rosemary crackers For pastas, both the Truffle Pasta and Saffron Pasta were super fresh; the freshest we've had in awhile. Prepared right before serving so they're steaming when they got to us. The flavors were also incredible. Just the right amount of creaminess and umaminess. I'm still thinking about them. We'll definitely be back and really couldn't recommend this place enough. Low-key but super cute, a great date spot or just for hanging out!

The service wasn't that great. Our waitress was not rude to us, just not attentive to our table. We went on a Saturday about 1pm. They had about 4 tables with customers. No line, but We waited about 10 minutes to be seated. Once seated we immediately ordered bread, a beer, sparkling water, and a bottled water. The beer was brought out immediately, and The bread not soon after. We got our entrees and finished eating and I realized I had nothing to drink. I asked for the waters we ordered and our waitress apologized and bring them out immediately. We took them to go. We sat outside because the weather was so nice. Lasagna is not served until 5 PM, so they altered their ravioli dish to include the sauce that they used for the lasagna and it was very delicious! We also had the alla monzese (with sausage and a saffron cream sauce) it wasn't bad, but it had an odd aftertaste that neither of us loved. If we came back, it would definitely be to try the lasagna

This place was impressive - the waitress was so educated and was a sommelier in training, the wine selection was extensive and the pasta was so fresh. I ordered the tagliatelle pasta with red sauce and it hit the spot. We also ordered bread and loved that it came with seasoning on the side for the olive oil. Overall great experience!

Wonderful neighborhood gem. On the esplanade with view of the river. Friendly staff and incredible food. The mushroom boscialo is the best dish on the menu IMO. The burrata is a wonderful appetizer. Great wine selection. Highly recommend.

We arrived without reservation and the host was so accommodating, very kind and polite. Our drinks and cheese platter was fantastic. And of course the view just topped it off.

We were strolling along and came across this cute little Italian restaurant with great water views! Unfortunately, the outdoor and indoor seating was booked -but we got there early enough to get 2 seats due to folks not showing up just yet! We ordered Lasagne -so yummy and tasty-melted in your mouth! I ordered the ravioli -butternut squash -it was so good in brown butter -! We highly recommend this place -food excellent and service excellent! You won't be disappointed!

Had the most amazing time at this gorgeous little restaurant. It was a very hot day but the breeze from the river cooled the area down enough that we were able to sit outside and enjoy the view. Incredible service. I felt like I had known these people all my life! And the food!! A STRONG recommendation

Originally, we were going to try Dough Zone but the wait was so long that we decided to go find something else. This restaurant was one that I wanted to try and we happen to get lucky because a reservation had just cancelled right before we had stopped by as a walk-in. We were excited to get a nice seat in the corner with a nice view of the river. FOOD: We first ordered a nice bottle of wine it was a really refreshing and crisp white (it was the Katari San Giorgio). We ordered an appetizer (the Bruschetta) and honestly I felt like this was better than the pasta itself. I got the Pomodoro pasta which was pretty good, I appreciated that the pasta was fresh, but the flavor was a little lacking after a bit. My partner got the Boscaiola pasta and it was way too salty for me. AMBIANCE: It was okay to me, there's a lounge-y sofa area next to some dining tables which was a little odd to me. The wine wall is really nice but the room feels a bit small. My number one feedback would be that the room felt awkward a bit because there was no music playing so when people left, it was so quiet and made it a bit awkward to have conversations. SERVICE/PRICE: This is where they lacked the most for me - we waited a bit over a hour to get our main entrees. The appetizer came pretty quick but the entrees felt like it took an eternity. It was one thing that the food was slow but it just didn't feel like the waitress was that empathetic to our situation. I made a comment about how long it's taking and that's when she brought out some snacks to nibble on while we wait. It wasn't only our table but there was another couple waiting for their food who was also asking how much longer it would be. They didn't seem to really have a reasoning except that they have a lot going on. Food & Beverages: 3 Ambiance & Cleanliness: 2.5 Price Point: 3 Overall Experience: 2.7

Excellent Italian spot with a great view and great service. The parmigiana was incredible, and I'll probably day dream about it for a while. I highly recommend the burro di salvia, the sage was unbelievably delicious, and the waitress brought out extra bread to soak up the sauce underneath the ravioli. The service was really friendly and we had a great dinner. Very much looking forward to coming back here. Thank you for a memorable night.

Amazing location on the Willamette river, authentic and delicious italian food, great service! Michael and his team never disappoint, and their portions are generous too! Great wine selection too!

So glad we chose to dine here on our one night in Portland. Food and service outstanding. We shared a Ceaser salad then proceeded to have both ragu pasta. One is traditional, one has tomato. We loved them both but I'd give the tomato version a slight edge. Great bottle of Sicilian wine. Then tiramisu- I've had (and it shows) a lot of this over the years but this was one of the best!

The Cesar salad was yummy but what I would come back for is the seafood medley over polenta. It was AMAZING, the broth was full of flavor! Tiramisu was great too..I agree with some of the reviews regarding slower service, it's not a place to come if you are in a rush but I didn't find the wait time to be excessive. The food was worth a bit of a wait and the server was super friendly. The view and location were also a 10/10, I would definitely bring friends here next time they visit!

Food, service, ambiance... 10/10/10. This was some of the best Italian food I've ever had. Staff is knowledgeable so ask about their wines! They're also very friendly, warm, and inviting. The environment is the same, with a cool location on the river.

Ten stars to D'Layne. Thank you D'Layne for making our family get together dinner so relaxing and easy. I was a bit worried to reserve a table, since we were visiting the promenade for the first time AND with a wheel chair as part of our mix. But you had the perfect table picked out for us and provided us with the best service along with food and wine suggestions. We all enjoyed our meals and definitely will come back.

We arrived at 7:00 ... we're seated at 7:20 - salads came at 8:15 ... pasta at 9:10 . We were the only ones in restaurant at 8:40 .... No atmosphere ... pasta was cold ... almost asked if they would microwave .. 6 pieces of bread cost $6. Pasta way overpriced - I would not go back and certainly will tell my friends what a bad experience we had . Luckily , the company was excellent ! And one nice perk was she gave us separate checks . But All in all a very disappointing experience

Made a reservation for 2 for my wife and I's anniversary. Got quickly seated outside looking out at the water. Beautiful night and beautiful view. The only problem was no body came to our table. We sat there with waters for over 20 minutes while we watched wait staff periodically come out but never even look in our direction. They weren't even busy and now I know why. I want to thank this establishment for forcing me to get up and leave eventually because on our bike ride back to our neighborhood we randomly checked to see if Noble Rot had seats. They had one two top when we walked in and we ended up having an incredible meal there. So thank you Il Terrazzo for forcing me to go back to a classic Portland restaurant and enjoy a delicious dinner. Best of luck ignoring your patrons.

delicious authentic Italian food! Highly recommend the saffron ravioli, melts in your mouth!

Met a lady named Catherine/Katherine, she was amazing. I trusted her opinion on everything and she guided me on the right path. Everything she recommended from the appetizer to the entree was spot on. 10 star service from her, food was 10, ambiance is 10. I'll be back soon!

I thought it was OK - i am in no way an italian connoisseur of any kind but definitely has a great location right off the river and during the day has amazing views! The wait staff was very friendly and attentive which was nice! They do require a paid bread service if you want it--it's $6 but you get quite a bit of olive oil and spices included with that though complimentary bread always just sets the tone for me and when it's a charge it just feels like i'm being nickel and dimed. Their prices seem sort of outrageous for their offerings. It's not even a fine dining restaurant- more mid-range and quality mid as well. The pasta was alright and pesto made in house but they're charging $24 for about two fist fulls of pasta with no meat--presentation was ok i suppose but at that price point there's a million other places in portland like a cena in sellwood that's actually $5 cheaper and actual fine-dining caliber. The value proposition just felt super disconnected here. I wont be going back but I felt it was a cool spot to check out at least one. Parking is super tricky and just expect to shell out $10 for parking after 5pm FYI!

Il Terrazzo? More like Ick Terrazzo. The food was way overpriced for what it was. We tried two different dishes. Both were basically just noodles with a little bit of sauce. Neither dish had any veggies or meat on it. There are better places to spend your money.

The most excellent Italian entree I've ever eaten. Outstanding food on every level. From the apps to the entrees. You can't go wrong. Highly recommend.

Best Italian food I've had in Portland. Ambiance is incredible (ask for a window table overlooking the river) and the service was top notch (thanks to Libby). Will absolutely be coming back, and recommending to friends.

Il Terrazzo is a hidden gem along the river in Portland. I discovered it while exploring the area on my first visit to the city last week. Katherine was so welcoming. She seated me at an outdoor table and recommended the most delicious local chardonnay. It paired so nicely with the artichoke and lemon pasta I enjoyed for dinner. That dish was like taking a bite of summer! And Michael came around with the most delicious focaccia bread he had baked from scratch that morning. I could not have enjoyed my experience more. I will definitely visit again next time I'm in town.

Great food! Wonderful personalized service! And the best energy and vibe! We were visiting and came every day we were in town. Libby was our favorite of all time!

Im back in Portland and dining at one of my favorites. Sitting having a glass of a fine Italian white Vernaccia From their appealing wine by the glass list which has a good variety, both red and white, to appeal to most pallets. There bottle list is very fine. Service as usual is excellent and the food is top notch The overall experience is delightful Try it you will not be disappointed

Amazing! Everything was fresh - Emma was an awesome server! Gave great suggestions for wine pairing with our pastas. Had the lasagna & saffron pasta. Amazing Nebbiolo to go with it and had to finish with the Tiramisu! Such a fun night o the water front!

My work team had a dinner here last week in the library. The food was so incredible! It took me right back to Italy! The owner Michael was our server & he took the time to talk with us about the sauces on the menu & their histories. It was all so wonderful. I could have swam in the black truffle sauce, it was so divine. I can't wait to bring my family here & sit outside along the harbor.

Food was good. Drink was good. But the service.... No. I had to ask several times for another table's lady to get what I want. My memories of Portland almost turns out to be unpleasant.

One of my friends suggested we dine at Il Terrazzo, as we search for good Italian in Portland. I am so glad we did! Beginning with our arrival, the staff were amazing. They are clearly passionate about foot and wine, as they had amazing recommendations and knew the menu very well. We decided to enjoy the special cocktail, and we made such a good decision. The owner, Michael, did much of the service for us and we thoroughly enjoyed how his energy and passion complemented the meal. We were so happy to hear about his experiences in Italy, and how they mix their experiences abroad with the service at Il Terrazzo. We are the type of people who enjoy meals slowly, so we were glad that this restaurant takes their time preparing great food and that they give us space to relax and to chat. At the end of our time, Michael brought us some of their special wine to try. We loved it, and we cannot wait to return to try more food. I highly recommend going for a long walk beforehand along the river to enjoy the good weather, especially during springtime. We walked from Slabtown, and I am sure anyone would enjoy parking further away and making this a full experience.

Some of the best pasta I've had at a restaurant! Great wine, beautiful location, and a quick walk to the Keller for a show afterward.
