Teura Italian Restaurant

I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Teura on 1215 Surf Ave in Brooklyn with my husband and son, and it was nothing short of exceptional! We came all the way from the Bronx, and it was absolutely worth the trip. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was elegant, welcoming, and truly upscale. We had the margarita pizza and mozzarella sticks, along with four glasses of wine, everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. Even though we arrived at 9:30 PM, just 30 minutes before their 10:00 PM closing, Denis, the manager that night, still welcomed us in with open arms. He went above and beyond to give my family and me the ultimate dining experience, making us feel like VIPs from start to finish. We will definitely be back at an earlier time to explore more of the menu and we don’t want any other waiter but Denis! I even took some content to make a TikTok, and as soon as I post it, I’ll be tagging you guys! If you’re looking for an unforgettable dining experience with incredible food and world-class service, Teura is the place to be.

Yesterday afternoon I went to this restaurant for the first time. It’s very nice and the service was excellent. Jeff guided us on what to drink and it was spot on. My only comment would be about my dish, gnocchi with pesto,but it really didn’t taste like pesto. If that happens to be your choice, just keep it in mind. I understand it’s not always 100% basil, but in this case it didn’t taste like it at all. Even so, Jeff’s great service made up for it. Plus, the prices are very reasonable

My wife and I had dinner here for our anniversary. About a week prior I spoke to the owner, Johnny, and he was very accommodating and said he would set up a nice table for the occasion. When we got to the restaurant he personally greeted us, and our server, Denis, welcomed us and showed us our table. They did a wonderful job of setting up something nice and even had cold moscato waiting for us. It was such a nice gesture on their part. The food was very good, but what we enjoyed most was the friendly staff and attentiveness. All of them, including the owner, the cook, and the servers Denis, and Jeffrey, were working hard to serve everyone as quickly as possible but still took time to answer our questions and make good recommendations. I highly recommend this restaurant and will tell our friends about it as well. The atmosphere was very pleasant and food was great. Thanks again!

We were looking for lunch and happened to come across this place by chance — and it turned out to be the absolute best decision of the day to eat here. The service was outstanding — attentive, warm, and genuinely friendly. And the food — an absolute dream! We had pizza for three, an excellent Caesar salad, and heavenly bruschetta. Before that, we were served homemade garlic bread with tomato pesto — a true delight! We’d come back anytime! Truly worth a visit!!! Thank you!!! According to the picture - there was no banana available for scale :))

We were celebrating our 39th wedding anniversary with a trip to Teura restaurant during the early afternoon. We could have gotten brunch, but we decided to go a la carte. Once I mentioned that we were celebrating our anniversary, to our surprise our waiter immediately told us he was bringing a bt of champagne 🍾 on the house for us. A big surprise smile were on our faces and we thanked him for his hospitality. He was so attentive during our visit and was NEVER in our way. He made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The story is not finished yet, we were so full, but he insisted we can try the desserts 🍮, well I went for the tiramisu. Now here is the best part, he brought an additional dessert (at no additional cost 💲) for the table. Both of them were very delicious and well received. I will highly recommend this Italian restaurant to everyone because it’s family oriented. This is our second time going there with the same treatment from what we remembered the very first time we walked through those doors. I have been recommending this place to everyone who is visiting the Coney Island area to pop in and try them out. You are not going to be disappointed with the service and the Food.

This place is absolutely perfect. The food is delicious. The service is top notch. It's right on the main strip of Coney Island so you can appreciate the atmosphere without having to eat beach food. We had a caesar salad which was light and well made and a margarita pizza which was huge and delicious. Good quality cheese and sauce.

Wow food was so delicious! I went with my girls and we shared 4 dishes and had 4 wines. We had the chicken parm, fettuccine alfredo, margarita pizza, and lobster pasta. It was fairly empty and service was a little slow but they were kind enough to give us free dessert! We will be coming back!

Teura Restaurant, managed by Mr. Elez-Bucaj with Mr. Denis behind the bar, offers a warm, elegant dining experience. The cozy interior features exposed brick walls, a stunning chandelier, and an impressive wine wall, creating a sophisticated ambiance. The wood-fired oven hints at authentic Italian cuisine, with fresh ingredients on display. The staff is attentive, and the space is family-friendly, with high chairs available. Perfect for a refined meal, though the setup suggests occasional live events.

Clean, friendly staff, but the food is terrible. There is a reason I was the only diner during a dinner rush. I received some complementary wood fired bread which was good, but mostly burned throughout. I also ordered a Pescatore pasta and the dish was horribly inconsistent on many levels. Some parts were piping hot. Some parts were lukewarm. Other parts were ice cold. The pasta was cold and horribly undercooked. I took two bites and refused to eat the rest. Overall the whole dish felt processed and reheated. It was an underwhelming experience. Thankfully the staff refunded me my order, but hopefully it will not make me sick. There is also a reason why this space has been a million things since I came to Brooklyn.

We tried the chicken parm hero and the vodka pizza. Everything was delicious and the portions were huge! We easily could have split either or, but it was nice to have the leftovers! The service was great, very attentive. It was a nice, cozy spot just across from the amusement park. Highly recommend if you're looking for a sit down restaurant on Coney Island!

Very good so much ECCIONALE!!!!!! Restaurant Italian of Coney Island!!!!!

Decided to check this place out after all the reviews, food was okay. Eggplant came out ice cold, portobello appetizer also cold, didn't make it an issue. Prices they have on their website and elsewhere do not reflect current prices, which are about 20% more on everything. Bit disappointed with the amount of wine poured for prices they charge. They also charge 20% grat and 3.5 credit card surcharge which isn't disclosed anywhere, leaving a bad feeling in your mouth. It was good but I think it could've been better, left feeling meh!

Wow beautiful chandeliers, soft and calm music, comfortable seating, view of wood oven pizza cooking in dining room, delicious and HEALTHY foods. Good service ! Will return.

What a pleasant surprise...stopped in here to get lunch, hoping for a welcome break from fast food row. Found the food to be fresh, deliciously seasoned and perfectly cooked. Had the muscles, the bruschetta, the eggplant parmigiana rolls and a large pepperoni pie. Everything was cooked to perfection and our server was incredibly attentive but not so much that you felt rushed. We finished with gelato that tasted like Florence and inspired us for our next trip back. Highly recommend.

Thrilled that I've found this restaurant! So far, I have placed an order here 3 times for the Sofia Loren pizza pie, and it has been consistently perfect! All ingredients are fresh, and the pizza is so flavorful. I haven't tried anything else off of their menu yet because I'm just obsessed with this pizza. Delivery is always quick, so that's a huge bonus. This place is now my go-to for pizza, particularly the Sofia Loren. Thank you, Teura! Ya'll are fabulous. 100 % worth the visit.

It's very tasty and plentiful food. The garlic bread tastes real good. I see the people in that neighborhood enjoy eating there.

Stopped in here after attending a Brooklyn Cyclones game. This place was formerly Pizza Brook, so I was expecting a pizzeria, but the new owner offers a lot more. They lightened up the interior of the place and also added new furnishings. We shared the Mediterranean Grilled Octopus. Very tasty. We also shared the House Special Pizza (beef prosciutto, mixed mushrooms and olives). Delicious. Highly satisfyingly. I also had two Peroni drafts, and our host kindly comped one of them. Will definitely return next time I attend a Brooklyn Cyclones game.

What a delight to finally jave a restaurant with quality meals, and nice comfortable Atmosphere. The food was top notch. The Backed clams made fresh not a mixture pre-made than spooned into a shell the clam was whole with great blend also paried it with mozzarella sticks which was made and breaded just enough not to overpower the cheese Our entrees were a light Gnocchi with a poached egg was tasty the sauce added to dish as not overcome . My lasagna was a treat I expected a cut slice from a pre-made tray. I got a huge hot sizzling dish ready made not a tower with layers. But more a deconstructed type . Which was enjoyable and pleasant surprise. Qe were so full we passed on dessert , I welcome this place highly with a good price range and a desire to try the rest of menu. Either for a lunc or an elegant dinner . BRAVO

My friend and I checked out this restaurant to celebrate my college graduation. I can say hands down that all of the food that we both had tasted delicious! Everything was cooked well and was very filling. Both of us had to get a to go box! The service was very friendly and respectful. The waiters were ready to collect and give our orders and answer any questions we had. Additionally, the location of the restaurant is great. You get a nice view of the boardwalk along with a comfortable atmosphere with the interior of the restaurant. I would go here again the next time I'm at Coney Island, thank you for my graduation day extra special!

First time here . First of warm welcome from the owner . The service was very good . The food was amazing. Specially the wood fire pizza and salad . I highly recommend this place to anyone that's looking for a great place to eat . I will come back again .

I ordered the chicken parmigiana and it was delicious! This place never disappoints, nice and friendly staff place is always immaculate, bathroom clean, nice atmosphere, family style restaurant to dine in. Bread was VERY GOOD soft and tasty. Chicken was flavorful cooked to perfection sauce red sauce was good!!!

Both the food and service were excellent. We came here to celebrate Mother's Day a day early after visiting the aquarium. The location is close by the aquarium and Luna Park. The gentleman who I believe was the owner was so kind and generous. You can tell he cared about the customer's experience. Their house made bread was so so yummy that we asked for a second portion. It was chewy and light on the inside and crispy on the outside. It came with this unique spread that everyone enjoyed. All our apps and entrees were delicious. The decor and ambiance of the place was also great. Would come back again when we're in the area.

Went at 5pm on a Friday, it was surprisingly empty. Albanian waiter was such a G on my date. Excellent service, amazing food, meals were a ittle over $20 each but portions were great. Scenery is beautiful, and they were always checking and offering. Would recommend and go again.

We stopped in for Prosecco and cheesecake. The cheesecake was so good. It was fresh with real vanilla bean. You could also taste the cheese without it being overpowering. It was not overly sweet. The crust was excellent. Just perfect. Thanks for the great experience of New York Cheesecake.

Excellent food, exceptional service & reasonably priced. Dennis was on point. attentive without intrusion. Helped one of my guests with gluten sensitivity and pointed out which desserts were gluten-free. Something I've never experienced & thought was long forgotten, we were gifted an "on the house" shareable dessert. Word of caution after your meal they will remind you about dessert. Do yourself a favor and indulge the chocolate mousse cake was to die for. The ricotta cheesecake was delectable. The vanilla panna cotta was soo good. Look forward to returning for another exceptional meal.

Came in with family after Coney Island on Mon. Decor is lovely with a nice wine display. New and clean, from table to restrooms. I felt underdressed because it was so nice, but we were greeted with a warm welcome. Our server was very attentive and professional. Perfect place to take someone on a date. The bread served was delicious, my daughter tried to take it all. The sun-dried tomato/butter/foam was really good. We ate everything and brought pizza home. The grilled shrimp in my salad was delicious along with the rest of it. My bf ordered a dish with a ginormous scallop and mussels in a red sauce and said it was fresh and cleared his plate. At the end they brought out a complimentary panna cotta dessert that was light and so delicious. I'd come back just for that. Definitely recommend to others and will be back. Thank you and may your business be blessed. Take care

Made a quick day trip to Coney Island while visiting NYC. We wanted something other than a hot dog or fried xxx, so we went out to the main street where we got off the train. About a block away, we saw Teura and decided to give them a try. The place itself was impeccably clean and attractive. All the folks there were very friendly. The young server raved about their house made bread and he was totally accurate. Crisp crust and soft, airy inside. I could have just eaten the bread! Fortunately, I got a pepperoni calzone. It gushed with ricotta and some of the best mozzarella I've had. Dipping marinara came with it, naturally. At $10, I felt like I was stealing but the server assured me the price was right. Anywhere else I've had something lesser, I've paid $15-18. My partner had the chicken parm sandwich, which came on their excellent house bread and included some great crispy fries. She could only get thru about half of a half of the sandwich and sadly couldn't carry the rest along on our journey. A quality spot like this should be packed every day and I hope a good review will help.

The food is amazing... The staff is very friendly And the restaurant and ambiance is amazing......I LOVE IT...I ordered the calamari and the pappardelle with short ribs it was sooo amazing definitely will be ordering again....the

Food was made with love. Restaurant was very clean and well maintained. Very professional and a delightful meal.

This miraculous apparition of a restaurant is serving perfectly charred octopus in a delicate tomato sauce laced with vibrantly green basil-infused olive oil *just steps from the Wonder Wheel.* The pizza is excellent, too, and perfectly paired with heaping bowls of crisp, acidic salads, generously tossed with creamy feta (or its Albanian equivalent?). All of this plus attentive service and a bright and airy dining room make for an unbeatable upgrade from boardwalk hotdogs.

Enjoyed a wonderful dinner at Teura last night with three friends! From start to finish everything was terrific. We split the Qebapa (grilled veal sausage) as a starter, shared salads (so fresh - and big enough for two people!) and had a variety of entrees. All were delicious. My Gullash was tender and spiced to perfection. The wine list offered great choices. Service was super-attentive. The decor was sublime - a clean, sophisticated beach vibe. You should go!

We visited this restaurant on 7/31/2023, and had a wonderful time. There were six of us and everyone had something different. Every dish was delicious , the service was excellent. The front windows open so on a nice night you can enjoy the ambiance of Coney Island. The staff made us feel at home and just like family. If you are going to be in the area this is something you do not want to miss.
