Terry's Terrace

Wife and I came here to try the February Lobster Lovers menu, they had some great selections the milkshake we got was creative and flavorful and each drink of the flight we got was amazing. The food was decent, could have used a bit more seasoning on everything we got but still solid. Our server was great she was very nice and friendly and checked on us frequently. The ambiance itself was pretty cool as well. Perfect for a date night, family night or night out with friends. I'd recommend anyone in the area to check this spot out.

10 stars Brandi’s Spicy Sunset is pure magic in a glass! This drink is a perfect balance of bold and refreshing. The sweet citrus flavors hit first, then that smooth, smoky heat sneaks in and lingers just long enough to keep you coming back for more. It’s the kind of cocktail that makes you pause after the first sip and say, “Whoa—what is that?” It’s got just the right kick without being overpowering, and the flavors are layered in a way that feels elevated but totally approachable. If you’re into spicy drinks done right, Brandi’s Spicy Sunset is your new favorite. Easily one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had. Mike J (aka MJ)

We went to Terry’s last night for our anniversary and it was FANTASTIC. Honestly, we’ve never had a bad meal or negative experience at Terry’s. The Shrimp Tempura was amazing and cooked perfectly. Our server, Athena, was superb! She was super friendly, attentive, had a great smile and really seemed to like people and her job. She brought us a surprise dessert brownie covered in hot fudge, vanilla ice cream and whipped cream…topped off with a “sparkler!” The “Tiki” drinks we had were tasty also! We would like to thank Terry’s for another incredible experience. You truly do have some of the best seafood in the metro Detroit area! We will be back soon.

What a cool place to have dinner! We attempted to go the first time at 6:00 on a Saturday night, heads up: you’ll need a reservation. Came back on a Monday afternoon and it was much quieter. Atmosphere was so fun at Christmas, with all the lights and color, so fun! Brings the family for a fun night and a fun atmosphere!

Such a cute place! Took my boyfriend here for his birthday dinner the day after valentines and they had a bunch of cute specials for the holiday. The mule was one of the best I've ever had, the lobster corndog was surprisingly good, the fish and chips were bomb... it was all good. Staff were super friendly and attentive. Will definitely be back!

My husband and I decided to try place for date night. Overall we had a good time. The food was good, but I had to send my steak back because I asked for medium well and it was medium. I, also got their lobster. It was undercooked, but they quickly fix the issue and everything was great. I had a great Blueberry lemon drop. My waitress JACLYN what’s great! She checked on us but not overwhelming. We’ll definitely give this restaurant another try.

Mary was such a great server. She went over and beyond and made sure my friend and I had a great dinner after sending our food back the first time.

Delishious fish and chips. Clam Chowder was over the top. Great service ! Friendly atmosphere! Will definitely be back!

We recently dined at Terry's Terrace in Harrison Township and had an excellent experience. We started with the crab-stuffed mushrooms, which were absolutely delicious. For our main courses, we had the mahi-mahi and a New York strip steak with fries, and everything was cooked to perfection. Our server was great, ensuring our soft drinks were always topped up and providing attentive service throughout our meal. We also loved the unique atmosphere, with all the memorabilia and the numerous TVs showing sports--go Tigers! Overall, we really like this place and look forward to returning soon. Highly recommended for great food and a fun, sports-friendly environment.

Good and service are always great. My favorite brunch place! I love the atmosphere and eggs benedict.

This place was good! Burger was very juicy and the lobster was flavorful. Everything was fairly priced I thought. Service was a little slow which is the reason I gave 4 stars. Would definitely come back!

It's bar food, but decent. I ordered the slider special. Also got an espresso martini, but that was bad. Husband got a ribeye.

We stopped in for dinner. Our server, Coco, was friendly, efficient and provided excellent service. For example, my husband ordered an appetizer of soup that we mentioned we were going to share. Coco brought it out already split into two small bowls...a small, but very appreciated gesture. Our food was very good and portions were plentiful. We will definitely be back!

Terry's Terrance is local to me and when someone wants to meet us there...we're happy to go. The food isn't the most wonderful food ever...it's good. I always get the Traditional Fish and Chips and it's usually great! My dinner partner got the "Crabby Chicken'. It didn't come out of the kitchen hot...but it's a meal that is fine eaten lukewarm so we didn't send it back. The chicken was cooked inside. The tomato bisque soup was good...it wasn't hot...but it tasted just fine. The Burnt tips appetizer was actually hot and very good!!! The service was excellent. We didn't have to wait for anything! Friendly and efficient.

Pretty pricy. The food was alright, nothing special. Fun arcade for kids. Service was good.

Came with some girlfriends for the Christmas popup. The place was wonderfully decorated as expected! Server was really nice and attentive. The drinks were good but some of them were very overpriced for the amount you get. Food is extremely expensive; 18 dollars + for a salad. I ended up with the Nashville hot sandwich which honestly wasn't great. The chicken patty is huge which is great but it's more sweet than spicy which is not at all what a Nashville sandwich should be. Also none of the sandwiches come with a side which is completely outrageous for the price you pay. I don't see myself coming back any time soon.

Nice place by the water. Let me start by saying it must have taken 50 man hours to decorate for Christmas if not more. The wife and daughter both said the French onion soup was less than stellar-and they would know. I had a burger and it was very good, grandson had the lake perch which again he reported to be very good. The have a pretzel ham and Gouda sandwich that looked so good I will return just to try it. Good service, full bar with a huge tap.

The food here was just ok. This place was packed so I had high hopes but nothing was all that great. Sadly, there are only 3 options on the menu if you are gluten free: 2 salad and burnt ends. I got the burnt ends and a side salad. The side salad was the smallest salad I've ever seen in my life. The burnt ends were good but since it's an appetizer it's very small. There are no entrees on the menu that are gluten free. Considering they serve steaks and lobster I was surprised to not be able to order one of those as an option. My husband got the French dip, he said it was just ok. Not as flavorful as other places and a bit cold. Our server was super nice but the food took forever (over an hour). Not sure this is on my list of places I must return to.

Great seafood and ppl all around lobster month awesome keep going 2nd year in a row even the milkshakes are great

Good vegan options but over priced, especially the kids meals. $9.99 for a bowl of kids Mac & cheese with no sides is totally ludicrous

Terrys terrace you can always count on for SEASONAL flights! They've always got something fun for flights going on here! The Christmas flight we have tried in the past & is lots of fun. I think it's a good idea because it's almost like taste testing the small version of a drink ....to make sure you like it before buying the full size. They've always done a good job with decorations in here as well, no matter the season, it's always very festive inside! The staff is super attentive & always very nice, I look forward to coming here to try some food items soon!

Absolutely wonderful and magical. The pop up Christmas theme is banging. The lights are Incredible. I had the tipsy Santa cocktail and then the Christmas Ale. For an app, beer cheese. For dinner, the bourbon chicken. My husband had the Kobe sliders. We were both impressed. Mine had so many fresh veggies. Our server was Abby and she was wonderful. Loved it, can't wait to come back

Honestly I thought it sucked. Rude staff, food that was either overcooked or undercooked but still priced sky high. Too many better choices.

As usual we had great service and drinks! We tried the margarita holiday flight and it was beautiful and fun! Our breakfast was as good as expected. Our server was attentive and friendly. I gave her my I hope no one steals it!

Only thing great about this place was the pinball and waitstaff. Very strange, unappetizing smell as you walk in and so dark. Maybe intentional to hide the dust fluffing off of lights and ceiling fixtures. Ordered a tex-Mex bowl... no bowl, couldn't find the rice or chicken around all of the tomatoes. But spent $19. I wish I would have gone to Chipotle. You guys need Gordon Ramsey.

It's been a few years since we've been to Terry's Terrace. Last time food was underwhelming but we heard they updated their menu and thought we would try again. Unfortunately we had the exact same experience. I have 2 stars because service was good and food was ok. We each had an espresso martini; hubby also had a Kentucky Mule. He started with lobster bisque; I had salad that came with my dinner. His bisque was tasty but barely warm, not hot. Had a sprinkling of lobster meat on top. My salad was fresh and tasty. Hubby ordered the surf & turf burger, medium, and fries. I ordered crabby chicken, which comes with asparagus (no potato or other side). His burger came out on the rare side of medium rare, but he was OK with it. My crabby chicken was a nice portion of 2 breast pieces, with 4 asparagus spears. The menu says the topping is "real crab mix" - but this is definitely more Krab than crab. Overall, the food was ok, drinks were ok. Our bill was $130 (with a 23% tip) for 3 drinks, a burger, soup and a chicken dish. I have been to many local fine dining establishments and had better food for far less. Terry's can't decide if it's a local bar or fine dining... but they are charging fine dining prices with mediocre results. This was pretty much our experience 5-6 years ago. It will probably be a while before we go back again.

This place is great. The atmosphere was awesome, our server Abby was so sweet. I love All of the Christmas lights and last, but not least, the kobe sliders were phenomenal.

Always been a fan of this restaurant but the quality of food has gone way down. Two stars for the service. Food, zero stars. It use to be a 5 star in the past, but now I can get the same type and taste of food at the local Coney Island for a quarter of the cost. Cut corners you lose in the long run. I'll return in maybe a few months to see if anything has changed. If not, I'll scratch it off my list of restaurants to visit

Terrible experience! My daughters steak was so bad we both spit it out. Tasted rotten. Didn't even have another drink to wash it down! My meal didn't come to the table until everyone else was finished with there meal and was tasteless. Wanted to take our family out for a nice dinner but turns out our toddlers hot dog meal was the most satisfying. Awful service awful food awful experience.

Coco was our server and she did a great job. She made sure to have 2 Shirley temples on standby because I was drinking them way too fast. The restaurant felt very festive and the food was delicious. I recommend trying the clam chowder soup and look forward to coming here again in the near future!

Coco best waitress. Strong and great recommendations. Food was amazing. Christmas drink specials are incredible. Strongly recommend. Crabby Chicken was delicious.

What a gem this place was. Not so much anymore. First the smell oh my your grandmas musty moth ball basement has nothing on this place. Service was terrible 15 minutes to get a glass of water 25 for drinks. Not busy and the portion size has shrunk. Couldn't get another napkin just a mess for a Tuesday night. Thought I would give it another shot just as bad, tried to reach out to management b4 posting a negative review no response. Do better clean the place up!

Great spot with large menu. The inside is a bit dark and dated but if you are hungry and local it's a good spot! Great fish and chips! Service was attentive. Young staff who seem to work at keeping customers happy.

I don't think I've seen a restaurant that actually seems cooler with the safety precautions, but I think Terry's Terrace might be able to make that claim. Many places have converted part of their parking lot to outdoor dining, but I've never seen one quite like this. If you are one of the lucky few, you get to sit in a geodesic dome...basically, a safety igloo. You're probably asking yourself, "who is this weird guy talking about wanting to sit in an igloo? I thought Terry's Terrace was a restaurant." Yes, Terry's is and always has been a cut above other dining options in the area. And, I will get to that in a moment. But, take a look at the picture. It's cool! And, unfortunately, you have to make reservations to sit there. We sat in the regular patio area, which has flames that the server can ignite to warm you up. It's not an igloo, but it's pretty great. I'm happy to say that this is really the same Terry's Terrace that you might have visited before the pandemic. The fish tacos are still lightly fried with substantial, delicious fish. This is still the best thing on the menu, in my opinion. The Moscow Mule is dang near perfect: so smooth you don't realize how strong it is until you try to stand up. The beer selection is always impressive, too. The Crispy Brussels Sprouts strike just the right balance: fried crisp on the outside, but enough vegetable on the inside that might be able to convince yourself that this is healthy. Go with that! The tomato soup is good: there are bits of tomato in it, so it feels heartier than a purée might. But, they insist on serving it in that ridiculous square bowl. You can't get to the corners with your spoon, and some always splashes out when you move it. The crab stuffed mushroom caps are smothered in so much cheese it's hard to find the mushroom. And don't be fooled: actual crab swims with an imposter. It's still tasty, but know what you're getting. One change I definitely don't like is that the clam chowder is no longer available as a regular menu item. It's only available on Friday and Sunday. The clam chowder is the signature dish of Tom's Oyster Bar, which has owned Terry's Terrace for a while. To me, this is a serious loss. And, you should know that this place is not cheap. You do pay for the quality you get here. It's listed as a two dollar restaurant, but it's probably closer to 2 1/2 dollars. Dinner and drinks for three of us (and my wife and I split the fish tacos) set us back $120, with tip. Not bad, but not something you can do every night. And, they have igloos in the parking lot! One of them was open, and there was supposedly a reservation there. When we walked out after our meal, nobody had shown up yet. Next time, we are sitting there, one way or another.

I am happy to have found this place. The food is very good and they have a nice selection of food. I had the perch abd it was very good. You have a choice about how it is prepared. They have a large selection of beer on tap. Needless to say, the wine list is not great. They had one Sauvignon Blanc . Visually, It is dark and rustic. There are tables outside with a view of the parking lot.

Went there this afternoon. Asked if we had reservations we did not. At lest 10 tables empty. Told of we sat down had to leave by 6;30. We were in a booth. The wait staff was terrible. Forgot to state we were there before 4:30. Turned away an elderly couple who probably would have been there less than an hour. Went to have a cigarette & came back & my keno tickets were drenched Use to b a place I would go to. Not anymore. Management you better check on your staff.

Went there tonight for fish and chips. Got the Sam Adam's beer battered special. It was really bad. Mushy and flavorless. Had it several years ago, was pretty good. Waitress was nice, too bad the food was so subpar. Diners make it better.

We got to sit in an igloo ( a sacred spot where Mr. 19 shall not enter)! Our server was awesome and she was making jokes and having a good time with us. We started with the Cajun filet mignon bites and the crab stuffed mushrooms. Both were really good and the bites had a little kick to it. The French onion soup was ok, it wasn't bad by any means but there weren't many onions in it and way too much dried oregano on top. The fish tacos were fantastic, I would highly recommend it. Multiple beer battered fish and chips were ordered by our group and they all loved it. Overall an awesome meal, and they do have gluten free options as well for anyone that might be wondering. Let's keep these restaurants in business so we can all come back and sit indoors once this madness has passed! Thank you for a great time!

Since 1937 Terry's Terrace has been feeding a river of loyal customers. From the moment you arrive you mood improves from the vibrant atmosphere, and good vibes from the clientele. The place is dialed in, as over the years it was appointed with nothing but the finest of everything, so built to last. Coco was our server, and made our visit a memorable one. We ordered seafood, twin lobster tails for my wife, and the bourbon glazed salmon for me, along with soups and salads, we were more than satisfied. Chose our desserts to go.

Food was ok not that I would I would rush back for. Atmosphere was good just not the best food

I moved to the right neighbor hood huh?? Damn y'all's food looks awesome!! See you soon. I love to grill and cook lobster. However. Thanks for the visuals!! I'll be coming by for the lobster bisque. Made mine in an rv. Cheated. Not from scratch. Add tails! Y'all's food looks amazing!!! See you soon! Yayyyyyy me! Yes I'm baked ;) I love to cook breakfast lunch and dinner. I like the clean dishes to

Over priced over hyped dump... and the Male hostess LOL. Staff is trashy as well. So many better places near by.

We were celebrating my Sisters Birthday in October and everything was wonderful,Our server Coco was the highlight of our evening, the food was great! I had the Crabby chicken and highly recommend it

Lake perch was a little on the tough side I was always used to it being soft and flakey. They can't be perfect every time. Everything else was good we had a large party of 8 and the service was great.

Good food and atmosphere. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but the restaurant is on the water and has several extras that make it worth it. There's a decent sized pinball room in the back nook that's a hit with kids and adults. Free popcorn freshly popped to grab while you wait, smoking patio and also a outside dining patio is available.

I will NEVER EVER give this place my business again, and I've been coming here for years. They ruined my Mother's Day, and ripped me off. I placed an order at 5:20pm thru Door Dash for pickup. The restaurant confirmed the order thru the app and my order was to be ready at 5:50pm. My son went to the restaurant at the appointed time to find a chaotic parking lot filled with cars waiting for their takeout. My son asked someone in the next car how long they'd been waiting, and their order was almost an hour late at that point. So my son waited. And waited. He finally stopped one of the workers coming out to the cars to inquire about our order, and they claimed they never got it from Door Dash - although my card was charged and I had a receipt and proof of my order. THREE HOURS LATER - my son finally gets back with our food. It's almost 830p, we're both starving, and the evening is shot. And the food?? WTF kind of crap did they throw together and charge me $75 - that's right, $75 for a meal that was GARBAGE. AND.. They replaced the ribeye steak I ordered with a NY strip because apparently they had ran out of the ribeyes - but STILL CHARGED ME the price of the ribeye, which is about $8 more!! All of the food was lukewarm. Lobster bisque was cold. The Brussels sprouts were cold and mushy. And the dinner salad that came with a $28 entree was a JOKE - look at the picture! McDonald's makes a better side salad than that trash they served me! And I didn't even order a salad - I asked for cole slaw. I also ordered a sweet potato and got cold mashed potatoes. Also, there was no salad dressing for the "salads", no napkins, utensils, or other condiments in the bag. Again - I paid *$75* for this "dinner" for two. I tried calling numerous times last night, and these people wouldn't even answer their phone. ZERO customer service. And do you think that they took anything off my bill or comped me for this disaster? Hell NO. I paid full price for a steak that I didn't even get! I'm DONE with Terry's Terrace forever. I hope covid cancels this place completely. Go bankrupt, idgaf. If this is how they do business, they don't deserve to be in business.

This place has been hit or miss. We stopped coming for a while then gave it another chance. Well, it's gotten worse. Very expensive. The price does not reflect the quality. Too many TV's showing inappropriate content for children. Our appetizer was cold in the middle. $6.75 for a White Claw! This place is located on a street corner overlooking a gas station and a trailer park. You can find a better place to eat with a better view. Way too expensive !! Don't waste your money

Haven't been to Terrys Terrace in years but went there the other day from my mother in laws anniversary party. It's been 20 years since I had been there, it will be another 20 years before we come back. Terrys terrace used to be a great place to get food, especially back in the late 90's to early 2000's, they used to be one of my go to spots for dinner before going across the street to the lady for drinks. So we started out with the crab stuffed mushrooms. These used to be great, essentially a mushroom cap filled with their crab cake mixture. Now it is just shredded imitation crab with mayo and a bunch of cheese on top. They tasted frozen and a waste of $16 for 4 caps. My wife then got the crab cakes for dinner, which weren't bad, and I got the prime rib. The prime rib, the crust was a good flavor but the steak itself had basically no flavor, it tasted like a really low end cut of meat, I even question if they actually used the right cut of beef for it. Price wise, it was very overpriced for what you get. $4 for fountain pop, $16 for a sandwich with no fries or anything, and if you meal comes with soup, you get the soup of the day or no soup, they don't let you like upgrade to the bisque or French onion and pay the difference, if you want one of those, you have to pay the full price. The place kinda smelled a bit too, like stale smoke like they haven't cleaned the place since the days of smoking inside was allowed. Not the best meal by far we have had and we were very disappointed.

Met a friend here for dinner, it was pretty crowded and we were told we'd have a 30 minute wait for a table. The host also told us we couldn't eat at the bar. So - we hung around the bar trying to get a drink since all the stools were full, until 2 guys left and we took their seats. After ordering some wine, a Sauvignon Blanc - which was pretty good for a bar, we perused the menu. We noticed others at the bar were eating - so we asked the bartender if we could too. She said sure and she didn't know why the hostess had told us we couldn't. My friend and I both ordered the pan fried perch, we got a salad and some broccoli. The perch was delicious, the salad was good and the broccoli a bit blah. My friend ordered a 2nd glass of wine, I asked for a water. A 2nd surly bartender gave me the cold shoulder for a while but eventually brought my water. It was a bit weird. We decided to split the bill evenly, that's when I noticed a glass of wine behind my water. I asked the barmaid, where did this come from? She said - Oh, I thought you ordered another, I said nope. But by then we'd already paid and she said it was too complicated to refund my money ($10) so she offered me a $10 gift card. Not my first choice since they're 30 minutes from my house and I hadn't planned on heading back there any time soon, but that's what I ended up with. Atmosphere was typical dark bar, not my favorite, I was hoping with a name like Terry's Terrace we'd have some nice outdoor options. Prices were a bit on the high side for bar food, $22 for the perch, but it was good. Our final total was $91 for 2 meals and 4 glasses of wine (which should have been 3).

Busy busy busy but worth the wait because their food and drinks are great! Located near a busy marina in Harrison Township, this place is typically very busy, so make sure to call ahead or plan accordingly. It's not busy because of slow service or that it's a "last resort" restaurant, but it's busy because of how great their food is. We've been here a few times during their special lobster month and for their typical menu. As you could imagine, their lobster month has some top of the line entrees that are lobster themed. However, on a typical day, their food is still top of the line and that's what makes Terry's Terrace great! I've had their lobster ravioli, fish and chips, lobster bisque and surf & turf. Each item was always prepared to my liking, making each visit worth the drive and wait. My fiance's dishes were equally as good, getting the same things I've gotten as well. It's got to be something in how they season the food, because their dishes have so much flavor. Terry's also has a wide variety of drinks too and a full service bar. This makes Terry's the perfect place to continue or start the party during a boating afternoon. Rain or shine, summer or fall, Terry's Terrace is in a weight class of their own. I can't wait to come back soon!

It had been quite sometime since we've been here, so I wasn't exactly sure what we were going to get in terms of service for the quality of the food. I was greatly surprised by both. Yes, like everywhere they have less staff (see my pic of the hilarious sign out front), but from what I can see the quality of the service hasn't dropped at all. As far as libations go, I have an excellent selection of draft beers, as well as several different varieties of their own mixed drinks. We ended up just getting lemonade and water, but I have had their beers in the past and they're quite good. As far as food goes, my daughter raved about the salmon, which she let me try, and I found it to be quite good. I ended up having the fajitas, which for once had a good balance of all the ingredients, and from what I could tell everything was extremely fresh and tasty. All in all the food came fairly quickly given everything above, and the waitress did a great job of keeping our drinks full in the meantime. So I know you're going to ask - what's the only issue you have that you are giving five stars? The biggest issue here has always been parking. There just aren't enough spots, and you're often forced to park along the side street or across the way if there's more than even an average group of people inside. That said, I'd recommend it in heartbeat....just car pool if you do!

it was our first time back in a long time and has Terry's Terrace changed. It is no longer a seafood restaurant but a little bit of everything. They had the air conditioning on so cold that you certainly should bring a jacket with you. we ordered an appetizer, the mini crabcakes. There was four of them but I felt there was a lot of filler in them. I ordered walleye and they advertised a half a pound but I believe I got three little pieces of Pearch.. The waiter insisted it was Walleye and I was not paying the bill so after complaining a while I figured I better stop. The waiter never offered to take it back so I just ate it and kept quiet. I am not planning on going back. Also prices work very high for what you got.

Lots of people rave about terrys but i have never had a great meal there. The food is ok. Service is fine. I could take it or leave it.

So over priced for literally nothing. They're food does not live up to the price at all. Service is slow and food is not good. I got a $15 espresso martini for it to taste like chocolate milk, lovely

My husband and I love Terry's Terrace. The service is great. Such an upbeat ambiance. For the kids they have an arcade, lots of TV's to watch your favorite team. The food is fantastic. My favorite is the salmon and the lobster rolls. Sweet potato fries are a must.

The place is a lot of fun. Great staff. Friendly people. Mo the Bartender is awesome and always fun to talk to! Ask her to make you a Horny Toad!

Wow! I'm blown away at how bad this place really is. This is the first time ever I had one of my kids complain about their meal. It was a sirloin steak. I believe the exact quote was " this tastes like butt". My wife tried it and spit it out. It seems there is a good chance that the chef may have actually pulled it out of his butt crack. As far as my meal the prime rib. Definitely not the best in the metro Detroit area. If you like flavorless meat it will be right up your alley. After we were finished eating my wife's microwaved chicken dish arrived. They took both meals off of the bill. Even with those removed the bill was still $147. The waiter was also very bad. We enjoyed our meal with all of the dirty appetizer dishes, and the soup bowls. No refills on drinks and never asked if we wanted any more drinks. When the manager was told about the steak she never returned to offer explanation but did take it off of the bill. This is hands down the winner of the worst establishment I've been to in a very long time. Save your money, and go to White Castle. The food there is probably better and safer.

Really good fish and chips. The fish tacos are on point as well. This night I had the ribs, they were a little light in the bbq sauce but otherwise great!
