Terrazza - Santa Monica (CA)

5 /5 Alex Ryan: Beautiful restaurant, beautiful food, beautiful views, professional service. Stopped for a birthday lunch and truly enjoyed ourselves here. They validate parking for non hotel guests. Setting, ambience and decor are lovely.

4 /5 Yalcin Kumeli: We really enjoyed the Spanish-inspired dishes, especially the octopus — cooked exactly the way it should be, tender, balanced, and confident. The Iberian ham was excellent, full of flavor, and paired beautifully with a good Tempranillo. Simple choices done properly. That’s what makes the difference. What truly elevated the experience, though, was the service. Guillermo from Barcelona was outstanding — professional, sincere, and genuinely warm in a very natural way. Attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without showing off. You feel taken care of, not managed. A relaxed, elegant place with honest food and real hospitality. We’ll be back.

5 /5 Fred: Terrazza is a restaurant of magnificent excellence that elevates the Mediterranean dining experience to a truly memorable level. From the very first moment, the impeccable quality of its menus stands out: fresh ingredients, balanced combinations, and a culinary concept that respects tradition but with a creative touch that surprises in every dish. The presentation is simply beautiful, designed with good taste and attention to detail, transforming each course into a visual masterpiece that anticipates the wonderful flavors to come. Each recipe is a delight that combines harmony, texture, and personality, awakening the palate with authentic and profound notes. I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the Chef and his entire kitchen team, whose talent, dedication, and commitment are clearly reflected in each of their creations. The culinary art they cultivate not only satisfies but also inspires and leaves a lasting impression on all the diners who frequent this wonderful restaurant. Terrazza is, in short, a place that honors Mediterranean cuisine with excellence, passion, and an unwavering desire to provide the best possible dining experience.

5 /5 Maryam Fatemi: The interior design and ambiance were spectacular, setting the tone for a memorable dining experience. We ordered the Mexican Mochatini, Wild Alaskan Halibut, and Sunday Roast. The cocktail was delicious, and the halibut was absolutely wonderful—everything on the plate complemented the fish perfectly. However, the steak fell short of our expectations as it lacked flavor. Our waiter was very kind and offered to remove the steak from our bill, which we truly appreciated. Great service and a good visit despite the steak.
