Everything is amazing in this place! I sat at the bar for the first time (I usually have a go to seat) Angelica was my bartender. I tend to order a bit off the menu. Angelica made ALL my requests possible. Such a lovely staff. The food is amazing, the whole menu is A1! My favorite go restaurant when I'm uptown! read more

Came here for a quick lunch with the family. The appz are great and place looks really nice. Service was friendly. The main dishes were ok, i got a chicken sandwich and it just didnt match the level of flavor of the appetizers had, that part was a bit disappointing. I would give the place another try for dinner menu, but the brunch/lunch menu can use some work. read more

Would prefer 3.5 but no halves, 2nd time at this location Food: oxtail risoto, they changed the format it feels but i had more of the fatty tissue oxtail vs the meat portion, still had great flavors but not a fan of the fatty part. Risotto, soft rice.and creamy, good. Appetizers: sliced octopus with potato slices, NOT the tail that most ppl are use to. Can feed 2 or be part of a meal very filling. Baklava: totally!! different but it had all the amazing flavors... it was like eating air with vanilla ice-cream. Service always good, ambiance calm and comfortable... read more

The second mother's days I've visited the location and it was perfect! The food was exceptional and fresh. The salad was delicious. The calamari was crunchy and sweet. The drink took me back from the cinnamon stick lit, however it was a delicious and smoky flavor. The short rib hash was absolutely amazing. The meat was tender and perfect. My mom liked the French toast. The end part of the bread was a little bit hard for her. Overall this place is elegant and amazing for any special occasion. The waitress was sweet and even explained why the drinks had a huge block of ice. I had the spicy chinola and it was really delicious ! Will come back with my boyfriend read more

I've been here multiple times and the food has always been delicious, this time I order takeout. I ordered the chicken chipotle, carbonara, and the short rib croquettes. For the prices this place is charging. You would think they would do better with the takeout packaging. It's very sad, And made the meal look very un appetizing. The portions were also sad. Everything arrived cold and I didn't finish my mail. I honestly did not enjoy it. Signing in might've been a better option, but I don't think I'll order takeout from here again. read more

Terravita is a cute restaurant with a great ambience in Washington Heights. They have a pretty long HH (lasts until 7 PM) & it includes margaritas, beer, & wine. I ordered a glass of red & the crispy brussel sprouts- both were great. I forgot the name of my server but he was great as well. All in all, I'd return back whenever I'm in the area. read more

It's honestly with sadness that I make this review so low bc if circumstances didn't happen, I would have done 5 stars. That's the only reason why I'm not doing 1 star. Although I have the name of the server who served us, I will keep it anonymous but I do want the establishment to understand that what happened is a very serious health risk. There were 2 nurses in this party so if we're taking this seriously, those out of the medical field should have as well. This is my experience from start to finish. I reserved this place for brunch to propose to my bridal party and vibes were beautiful. I was able to come early, set up my table with the gifts for my party, and do some decorations. One of the waitresses introduced herself and was chatting with me to understand what was going on and asking if I needed anything at all. My party came in and we were able to place our drink and meal order. The server took our order and my friend and I were thrown off bc we were a party of 10 and they didn't write a single thing down. We ordered drinks first and their drink menu has all mocktails but we were able to add alcohol so we told them if we wanted to add either vodka or tequila. So DISCLAIMER: Alcohol is not added unless we explicitly tell them to add it. Drinks were served and we were chatting. It had been a good 30 minutes until my friend WHO IS PREGNANT asks me to try her drink bc she thinks she's starting to get hot and red and she thinks there's alcohol. At this point, she's already drank almost half and I guess this is a testament to the drinks bc you really couldn't taste the alcohol but these drinks were strong as my other friends were feeling theirs. We asked the server and they said yes that one has alcohol when she ordered a mocktail obviously. I understand mistakes happen and the server switched it out to a mocktail but it was the response to it after that I was not happy with. We tried not to make it a big deal and carried on with our occasion but when receiving the bill, the charge for that cocktail was still on. I approached the waiters and our server was like remember I switched it out, and I said yes but we didn't order the cocktail. The server switched it out to a mocktail charge but at this point I'm annoyed bc this is a big mistake with a health risk and I feel like it's not taken seriously or being acknowledged. I told them don't you think we shouldn't be charged for this drink at all and they go so what do you want me to do? You want me to take it off? I said yes and when they were doing it I heard a lot of tongue clicking and shaking their head. Such an upsetting response with no remorse for giving a pregnant woman alcohol when SHE was the one who noticed the mistake NOT the staff. If I'm being honest, food was great. I'll still give them that. My friend said the lemon ricotta pancakes is one of the best she's ever had. One of the waitresses offered to take our picture in their second room. The whole event was great aside from that incident. At the end of it, the server apologized but that was after experiencing them giving me a hard time for asking for the item to be removed. It was also off putting that the other servers were standing nearby and trying to stay out of it. Would I recommend this place for food and drinks? Yes. But I would not come back bc of that specific server. read more

I came here with my mom and this place is a gem. I've lived here all my life and this is one of the nicest restaurants in the area. The ambiance is sophisticated and the food is delicious. The drinks are very yummy too. The music isn't too loud so you can have a conversation with whoever you bring. The service is also amazing, we didn't have to wait much to be attended without a reservation definitely recommend. read more

Amazing service, beautiful ambiance and the food was absolutely delicious!! Came in to have brunch with a few friends and so glad we did! We started off with the brunch special which included bottomless mimosas, an appetizer, entree & dessert for $55. Such a great brunch value and as the food came out we all couldn't stop saying how good it was! And trust me we are a bunch of girl food critics haha. The hummus is so creamy and smooth with pomegranate and pickles on top which gave it this fresh taste! and the pita that accompanied it was delicious and also had this wonderful seasoning on it. The salmon croquettes were very flavorful and had the perfect crunch to them . And the winner of the table was the truffle & parmesan yucca fries with a pio pio sauce that was insanely good! I think we asked for just a side of the sauce haha. For the main dish I had the short rib hash, which had braised short rib, potato hash, avocado mousse with scrambled eggs. Let me just say this was perfect and I loved the avocado mousse it brought all the flavors together and I was a fulfilled foodie haha. This is such a great place and I can't wait to come back and hopefully you give it a try too !! read more

We had a brunch reservation for a party of four following a visit to The Cloisters. Upon our arrival we were greeted warmly and sat promptly. The upscale decor is welcoming. Our waiter, Robert, was hysterical and walked us through the menu. Our group ordered the hummus , ricotta pancakes, short rib hash, Brussels sprouts and Brussels sprouts salad with shrimp. All were delicious! My daughter ordered the Tuna Tartare and she said that while she liked it, it was not her favorite version of this dish. All in all, it was a great experience and we'll all be back. read more

The first thing that wowed be about Terravita is the ambiance. It gives rich, luxury appeal and service. The hostess was beautiful and so friendly. She made my friends and I feel right at home. I ordered a French 75 and it was delicious. Sometimes its a hit or miss depending on the bartender but they did a great job mixing that I ordered another one before my meal got to me. I ordered the Short rib hash minus the eggs because I unfortunately have a sensitivity to eggs. The hash was amazing! So flavorful and rich. I wish I could have enjoyed it with the egg. My friend ordered the Lobster Bisque Pasta and I felt the portion was really small, but my friend confirmed it was tasty. Overall it was a great experience! read more

We went here for a quiet date night on a Wednesday to get out of the Harlem scene and it did not disappoint! The restaurant is clean and very cute, there were only a few people in the restaurant so it was perfect for us and there was room for our baby stroller. Nick and Mariana were our servers and they were so kind and so on top of their stuff! Nick gave great suggestions on what to eat on the menu. We did the short rib croquettes and the octopus appetizer that was to die for and for entrees we got the NY Strip special with a side of lobster tail and the short rib yucca gnocchi and everything was seasoned so well! The gnocchi was a little oily but overall everything was delicious. And the drinks were so tasty and balanced! I didn't get the bartenders name but shout out to her! Great ambience inside, will definitely come again. read more

Used to one of my favorite post work happy hour spots for drinks and appetizers. This time around the drinks were good as usual but the food lacked flavor. The calamari was so over cooked . The salmon croquettes were just a bland confusing flavor . We ordered the octopus Bao bun and was given beef ones. When they finally rectified their mistake and brought the correct ones they tasted terrible . Not sure what was going on in the kitchen this time around . read more

Once again I've come to one of my favorite places in NYC. Every time I come in, even when I think no improvements need to be made, something is always different and better! They've opened up new locations (which I plan on visiting) and included a different dessert on the menu that we decided to try out. As usual, my service pet was allowed, the service was quick and attentive. Everything was super clean and well decorated. The hostess was a GREAT GUY who we hope to see again! He was attentive, answered all of our questions and made sure we didn't go a second without any guidance. read more

We were there thanksgiving weekend. Love the bring your own part. 5 of us shared apps; crispy cauliflower, short rib croquettes, calamari and lam hummus. They were all great, but hummus and cauliflower stole the show. Entrees were 2 chicken, just ok, served in a small bowl, Branzino catch of the day, risotto, and Mar y Montana. All pretty good, not great Best to park across street in whole food parking lot. Price was 317.51 including tip. Check your bill gratuity , 20% , was put on the bill. I thought it was 6 people for gratuity to be included we had 5 people. read more

I visited Terravita's NYC location last Friday and I was thoroughly impressed! The restaurant had a cozy, chic, and upscale vibe that was SO good, we didn't want to leave. It's an amazing spot for a date with friends or with your significant other -- I'll definitely be back. The service was incredible - servers were kind, attentive, knowledgeable, and made every single menu item sound delectable (ALMOST ordered the ceviche, I'll have to try it next time). Finally, THE FOOD & DRINKS - wow! I ordered steak frites, and my cousin ordered the roasted salmon with Israeli cous cous. Safe to say we cleaned our plates! We both also ordered margaritas and espresso martinis with a splash of Bailey's for dessert! Everything was spectacular! read more

Came in at 9:05pm on a Tuesday night and I was promptly greeted when walking through the door. I asked to sit at the bar, which I was told I was welcome to because there were several seats available. I was tempted to eat something because I was quickly given both the drink and food menu, but I really only came in for a quick drink and was not disappointed at all. This upscale establishment in the heart of Washington Heights is beautiful. Harlin promptly took my drink order at the bar and it was so good I decided to have two. The ambiance is romantic and it was not too loud or crowded there. Situated right next to the George Washington Bridge bus terminal, I will definitely be returning to this place to try their food and hang out longer. Kitchen closes at 10, Bar calls last call around 10:40pm read more

I came back intending to get the eggs Benedict that I've had a few times (and is the best eggs been I've had in years) but table next to me had ordered the steak and eggs brunch and it looked so good I had to order that instead. I got the eggs scrambled with white cheddar. Literally perfectly cooked steak and so much flavor. Another 10/10 brunch. The music, settings, staff, service and vibes are all spot on. read more

Great food and drinks, unique, great service and ambiance was lovely. Went here to celebrate a graduation and was not disappointed!

Went as a group of 3 for Sunday Brunch: LOVELY service, verging on pedantic (ie. they replaced our utensils between appetizers and entrees). I ordered the green chicken panini, which I didn't love it bc the chicken seemed a bit undercooked (for my liking), a bit gamey/"too chicken-y." The calamari appetizer was great. Friends ordered King Trumpet Mushroom entree, and Avocado Thai--both they loved! read more

Nice gem in Washington Heights. We came here for lunch and were impressed. The restaurant has a nice ambiance and the staff is very attentive. Sergio and Angie were courteous a d friendly.

Leaving a disappointing review as per treatment received a few minutes ago. I would like to preface the following with stating that I have frequented this establishment on numerous occasions in groups, on my own. The food is very good and in the past I have been attended well- except today. At 6:49pm on 9/24 I entered their Broadway location and requested to use the restroom. I am pregnant and needed access quickly. The host denied entry stating the bathroom were for clients only which I understood and quickly advised I would be making a purchase to adhere to policy and quickly access the restroom as needed. The host then states that I gave him an attitude and repeated the bathroom was for clients only and pregnancy was not an excuse as if my attempt to make a purchase was irrelevant. I reaffirmed making a purchase and he finally let me use the restroom. Frankly, if I weren't in a pinch, I would've avoided a purchase altogether based on the poor customer service. I was not trying to get over anyone. I purchased an appetizer after using the restroom as I mentioned I would . Solely on the basis of being confronted the way that I was today, I will no longer attend the Broadway establishment. read more

Our team had our holiday lunch at Terravita and everything was amazing! Food 5/5: From drinks to apps to entree and to dessert, everything was delicious.

My group of friends and I have become parents or grandparents all within a 8 month time period with crazy lives and we finally got all our calendars to sync (instead of individual connections) to celebrate one of their birthdays. Like old times we wanted something in NYC, with good drinks, and good food, so Terravita was selected based on their ratings The location was in a busy area close to the George Washington bridge where everything is hectic and parking is rough but we made it and walked into the well decorated and open establishment. To give a vibe of the location just imagine Cold Heart (PNAU remix) by Elton John & Dua Lipa playing. The food, delicious and artfully done especially the chocolate dessert that looks like a plant. I had the crab cake Benedict and there was ample crab with minimal filling as it should be. Everyone enjoyed their food and we stuffed ourselves guilt less with our desserts which we did not share. Great company, great food, great drinks, and an absolutely great time! read more

Decided to try this place since we were in the area. Sat in the bar area since we didn't have reservations. Decided to only tried a drink and share an appetizer. To start we ordered the salmon croquettes, which were delicious. And to drink I ordered the Vita Tropical. Drinks were good that we ended up staying for a few more drinks. Staff were good and ambiance was nice. Would definitely come back to try their food. read more

This is the nicest restaurant in the neighborhood. However, it is one of those places with a bad menu, and you can't find anything to pick. I got a dish with chicken that was so dry and smelled terrible. Gross. It is too bad because the ambiance is so lovely, the cocktails are good, and the service is usually on point. If I were them, I would revamp the menu and make it more palatable. I feel like it is essentially a rip-off because the place is nice, but the food sucks. I would go to Malecon or Uptown Garrison for the food. read more

Five stars for the vibe and flavor profiles. Unique variety of dishes, ranging from thai salad and tacos to lobster and ravioli. The roasted branzino was the highlight of the meal for me, with deliciously crispy skin and lovely texture of fish. 3 stars for the steak and lobster both being a bit dry. Everything was also a bit pricey. The margarita was nice and clean but could be stronger. The wait staff were all nice, but the kitchen was too slow. It took us an hour and a half to get our food, including appetizers. Two stars for the wait. Would definitely come back for the good vibes and lovely decor. read more
