Terra Canberra

DO NOT TRY THE FEED ME OPTION!! ABSOLUTE RIP OFF! We paid 93 dollars per person but the quality and amount of food we got was not worth the price. Photos attached. The chicken was bland, salads were weird and didnt taste the best especially the tomatoes. We liked the brisket and croquette. Dessert was not bad. I have done many *feed me experience in Canberra but this is the only time that I was very disappointed. The service was not great either. We felt like we were abandoned at the corner of the restaurant. Definitely not coming back. We will spend our money somewhere else.

Without a doubt, the best steak in Canberra! We have come to Terra twice now, and been able to try a variety of the menu. We had the people’s steak tonight, and it was the most perfectly cooked, flavourful and high quality steak we’ve had in Canberra. The pork belly is always our favourite- in a deliciously sticky sauce and cooked to perfection with amazing crackle. For the $35- the people’s steak is such an amazing find and along with some crispy and well salted fries- it’s an amazing dinner. The basque cheesecake? Yeah I’d sell my left leg to eat it again. The best cheesecake I’ve ever had. Thank you Terra for amazing quality food, amazing staff service and our new favourite spot in Canberra. Xx

I've been a regular for years, and the roast chicken remains the best in town—juicy and tender. The People's Steak is also great value. However, I found the service a bit chaotic. I ordered two glasses of wine during my meal, but both were forgotten. The second glass still hadn’t arrived by the time we finished our mains, and the staff were too busy for me to follow up. I decided not to wait and asked for the bill, only to find the wine included. Additionally, when we arrived, two staff members at the POS were checking something on the computer. Instead of helping us check our reservation, they told us to wait for another staff member who was occupied serving tables. It took about two minutes for her to return and check our booking, even though the two staff members at the POS could have easily helped us in just 15 seconds. As a retail manager myself, I would never allow this to happen in my store—especially to a friendly customer. While staff have designated roles, teamwork is essential. Acknowledging and providing attentive service to customers should always take priority; checking something on the POS can wait.

Steak and octopus were delicious. The pork belly, broccolini and lemon tart were a bit underwhelming. I would go back for the steak special. The venue has a nice upscale atmosphere.

We had a brilliant time here at Terra! What a little gem! Our waiter was super attentive and friendly and all other staff were lovely too. We were a group of 4 so we ordered dishes to share. Food came out at a good time and cooked to perfection. The highlight for me was the chargrilled octopus and the steak and we couldn’t resist the dessert. Portion sizes were great and prices were fair too! Parking was easy to find with a parking lot nearby. Will definitely visit again when we are back in Canberra!

A nice, cozy spot for dinner with family or friends. The octopus starter was quite enjoyable, but the main shared dishes were rather average. We left a small portion of food and asked to have it packed to go, which the server kindly offered to do, but unfortunately, they forgot in the end.

An extremely average dining experience where the quality doesn't match the price. Terra's exterior tries to come across as polished and upmarket, but the food doesn't quite match. Brisket was dry, fish was bland and lacked flavour, and the tomato salad was made with seriously underripe, tasteless tomatoes. If you're going to be charging $16 for a salad with minimal ingredients, the star ingredient has to be of good quality - which the tomatoes here were obviously not. Wouldn't recommend

We got the "feed me" which is a good way to experience the breath of offerings - strongest dishes were the pork belly, charcoal chicken and cauliflower - weakest was the very dry brisket and the somewhat anemic tomatoes in the stracciatella entree. Constructive feedback would be to serve point end brisket to retain juiciness and invest in the best tomatoes, they really need to shine in the stracciatella entree - like the strawberries in the cheesecake dessert. Keep doing what you're doing with the pork belly though!
