My family adores this restaurant! They had talked it up and when I got a chance to go with them, it definitely lived up to the hype! The wine selection is amazing, and very representative of Northern Italy (the region they try to emulate). The sommelier was very helpful and knowledgeable. They also had a great beer selection if you want to switch it up - with some beers you don't see other places. I really enjoyed a spiced Belgian ale. Then there's the food. Every day they have a 'skewer del giorno' for $1, which is a fun way to start off your meal. We then got a mixed cheese and salumi plate. The sommelier who had been helping us out picked out the selection and we enjoyed everything on it. We also had the brussel sprouts (AMAZING), vitello tonnato (not for me - but everyone else at my table liked it), and a bruchette of the day (also incredible). We then split a larger plate of braised short ribs. The meat was good, but the fried polenta and gorgonzola-stuffed onion was incredible! Overall, a feast for 4 people. I would highly highly recommend this restaurant to any 'foodies' in the Twin Cities - love the ambiance, food and wine selection! read more

This is the second time I have had take-out from Terzo during the pandemic (although they are serving indoors now!). My porchetta bowl is fabulous, but my friend's FULL order of two 3" porchetta ravioli is not a value. My bowl must have weighed 3 or 3.5#, but seriously...2 ravioli for $20? Can't go back. read more

We met our nephew and his girlfriend here for a casual dinner. It was a weeknight, we just wanted a relaxing dinner without dropping a fortune; we usually pick up the bill when we dine with this delightful young man. Our fault, we should have looked closer at the menu online before we agreed to the spot. We let our nephew pick-it was a busy week. The first inauspicious sign, we were seated at a table in a corner that was a squeeze for the five of us (our college aged son decided to tag along). We did have reservations for 5. My husband is not a senior citizen yet, but his hearing is suspect; when they wedged a large pre-wedding party in right next to us, adding chairs to a smaller table, all enjoyment was lost. We could hear absolutely nothing. Once we got our menus, half of us realized the dinner menu was way more pricey than we had expected to pay for a casual weeknight dinner and we ordered the Porchetta Bowl. At $15 should have been an adequate meal. It was sufficient food, but the entire the thing was so bland and unappetizing that we were appalled. My husband referred to it afterwards as a damn bowl of porridge with a bite of dried up pork. The two young men, inexperienced with what "Primi" and "Secondi" meant, ordered one item off of the dinner menu. Without trying to embarrass them we tried to get them to order a salad, but they declined, probably because their dinner was already north of $35 each. Scallops for one and chicken for the other and we all had a glass of wine. I am not sure about my nephew; but my son had to stop at a drive through on the way home because three scallops left him pretty hungry. Two stars because I suppose the food might have been ok if it had been what we anticipated. But the experience of our reserved table being so small and the whole place being so unbearably crowded and loud was miserable and then being mad to pay for it. read more

I'm quite happy to part with a large sum of money at a restaurant when the food and dining experience merit it. Unfortunately, there seems to be an unwritten rule that even the most modest attempts to create an upscale/fine-dining experience in the Twin Cities have to disappoint on at least several levels. Perhaps it's a kind of small city inferiority complex that fosters an eagerness to hype new restaurants and dining trends to such an extent that many of the most fashionable local establishments have come to possess grossly inflated reputations. Another explanation has to do with the way in which the area's increasing economic capital is being deployed in the pursuit of cultural capital; however, it's never been more true that money can't buy taste. All of this is to say that I can't recall the last time I left the latest standard-bearer for the local restaurant scene feeling satisfied and excited to return. Instead, I too often find myself grumbling about people's desire to consume an experience that works to affirm their social status rather than actually reckon with the food before them. As it happens, Terzo, an extension of the Broders empire, offers a welcome change of pace for the perpetually dissatisfied diner. I had dinner here recently, and the occasion turned out to be a rare one in that everything, from start to finish, was decidedly well-executed. The key to Terzo's success lies simply in its embrace of restraint. From the physical space to the menu and service, the proprietor seems to understand that holding back sometimes allows you to offer more. Rustic seems to be a popular way of describing the decor of the small, intimate dining room, and I suppose that's apt enough. I would imagine that the maximum capacity is around 50, but the space succeeds in being far more cozy than cramped. As far as the menu is concerned, it seems difficult to go wrong. The fare doesn't amount to anything sophisticated, but a good meal need not be overly elaborate; they do what they do quite well. Our group started with vitello tonnato and a burrata salad, and then moved on to several pastas, polenta, and chicken involtini. I typically avoid chicken (what's the point?) but rarely find involtini of any sort on a menu in these parts, so on the server's recommendation I ordered it and was duly rewarded with maybe the best of four dishes. Desserts were good as well, though the panna cotta may have been the weak link, which isn't at all to say it wasn't satisfying. One of the truly standout features of Terzo is its seriously impressive wine list. If, like me, you're obsessed with anything Piedmontese, then you're most certainly in luck (but other regions are more than suitably represented as well). They even offer a Nebbiolo flight, which I won't be able to pass up on future visits. If you're not familiar with the famous reds of Piedmont, allow your server to recommend one if you're in the mood for an irresponsible splurge. I have to call attention to the sometimes overlooked art of pacing, which was mastered during my visit. A well-paced meal--not just in terms of the arrival sequence of the courses, but also the frequency and timing of the server's stops at your table--has the potential to make or break a dining experience, and Terzo absolutely nails it (they're helped by the relatively small scale of their operation). They succeed in creating a leisurely pace while never making you feel as though you're waiting on something (or that they're waiting for you to move on, for that matter). I'm not inclined to give 5 stars to anyone, but what the hell, it's deserved, especially in light of prevailing standards. I'd say that this is probably the best Italian food in town, but there's a way in which that might seem to be a back-handed compliment. Well done, Terzo. read more

Very pleased we stopped in here on a spur of the moment decision. The service was very good.. knowledgeable and friendly and reasonably quick. The food was more creative than I expected going in and really quite good. The wine, from a value perspective, was fine; not as pleasant a surprise as the food but played it's role well. If you're looking for a very nice evening in an intimate atmosphere, Terzo is a solid choice. read more

I don't normally take the time to write reviews..but I was so overly impressed by terzo..the food...the service..the ambiance..the experience was all perfect ! I was with a group of 6 and all of us were raving about every morsel!! The chicken liver mousse and the burrata salad were my favorites Our server was extremely knowledgable about the very extensive wine list ! Truly an amazing meal and experience Kudos to you Terzo Bryce Jermain Brycejermainsalon.com read more

Another visit like last night and it'll be 5 stars. Wife, kid and I went for Halloween dinner. Got right in at 6:30 with a same day reservation. There was space for walk-ins although Halloween means a drop off in diners. Wife was disappointed there were no pasta selections but that's on us, not them -- read the menu before you go. Had the homemade potato chips and olives to start. What you'd expect. Great Italian wine selection and our server navigated it for us with ease and intelligence. I had the chicken dish, she the pork chop. A top three chicken dish for Minneapolis -- just outstanding -- juicy, flavorful bird and lots of it. She loved her pork chop. They even made a special meat and cheese plate for the six-year old (which we ate most of). Almond ice cream with red grape compote dessert was unique (smelled bad, tasted good). Great ambiance to the place -- what a neighborhood restaurant should be -- and the service was excellent -- our server was attentive, understanding and knowledgable. Can't find that at many Minneapolis places these days. Bravo Terzo! read more

This review is actually for the window that is "Porchetteria", read below for more details.... Food/Drink: Wow, these pork sandwiches are great and flavorful. We ordered the Calabrian and the Rapini and it was awesome. They're slightly greasy, but don't worry about that until the end (wetnaps galore). Pretty reasonably priced and the service was quick. We also ordered a side of the house made chips and one of the aioli dips and they were enough for two people and tasted great to boot. Can't give enough compliments. Ambiance: If you haven't heard, it's basically setup so you can roll up through the parking lot and there's a window with a doorbell to the kitchen. There's some chairs setup which are just right to sit, eat and enjoy the sun. However, if you're a bigger group, don't expect a picnic bench or anything like a table, however they package it up pretty well so it could make a quick drive back to your office. Regardless, you know where to go and what to do based on what you see. If you decide to stay, you'll enjoy the food even more. Service: It's a window to the kitchen, and the person behind the window still had time to explain some of the options and even give us a quick recommendation on a sandwich to try. it's all recyclable material and packaging so after you're done, take it to the garbage and grab a wet nap or three on the way back. Be aware it's only open during the lunch to afternoon during the weekdays (I think). Overall: I've been a fan of upscale restaurants doing windows for lunch so I'll admit I was a little biased. But the flavors on the sandwiches were really done well and I like the theory that the chef might be able to change the menu quickly or might be able to try different things here that they might not be able to do on the inside. Regardless, the food is great and the window ordering and location makes you feel like an insider and cool (and who doesn't want to be cool?). read more

Not overly big, not overly loud, not overly priced - it's just right! Staff were knowledgable about food and wine selections. They clearly put a ton of time into educating their employees. Would for sure go back. Not a place to take the kids. Two people, three courses each and a few glasses of wine, dessert, and capacino for less than $165. read more

The service and food were impeccable. I had the Lake Trout which had a nice heat to it. I asked the server to recommend a nice wine and it was great. Our water glasses were never empty. The chocolate cake and lemon baba cake were excellent. read more

Cute little speciality restaurant nestled in a quiet part of Edina! Great for a date, very intimate. The menu is not expansive but has all the major Italian staples. Great wine list, yummy shareable appetizers and their gnocchi is delicious! Would go back with the hubby! read more

Came here with huge expectations as it was part of the Broders group and was highly rated on Yelp! It's never been so where yelpers have misled me nor has my likes been so different ! But there is a first time for everything. So here it is with Terzo, The looks so great but not so great food. Tried different things on the menu. We were greeted and seated as we had a reservation. They served a little prosecco on the house as it was their 3rd birthday! A nice wow factor! Then came the on the house small bite , little puff pastry with pecorino and black pepper ... Sorry I didn't taste any pecorino. Tried their popular dishes like Crab and artichoke , Ravioli , and other options such as grilled Octopus , Calabrian chillies ( from the bar menu) and Quail. Everything was plated well, looked appetizing but the flavors didn't live up to its looks. Getting to specifics ... Calabrian chillies was a monotone of saltiness with the heavy dose of goat cheese stuffing and no spice whatsoever. The balsamic on the side didn't do much justice to add a twist of sweetness to the heavy salty cheese !!! Crab and artichoke was indeed fresh and light with the cucumber, but lacked the oomph factor ; Ravioli was a shade better, but the loaded pecorino and Parmesan filling overshadowed the morel mushroom and nettle flavor. Octopus was tough and terribly missed some citrus which could have brightened it a bit. Quail was cooked well and had good flavor. But the cannellini beans it was served on was bland and didn't add much to the dish. Grilled carrots and ramps helped improvise the dish a bit. Overall portion sizes was terrible and wasn't filling . Finally the dessert ; Brown Butter Budino with Espresso Gelato , whipped mascarpone and biscotti crisp was outstanding! It made the whole mediocre meal experience worthwhile , but not enough to warrant more than a 3 star rating. Our waiter Nick was very knowledgable with the wine and menu, but unfortunately the food didn't live up to his excellent description and reccomensaftions . It's like the standing joke.... "A pretty bimbo blonde" kind of a place . (Seriously, " No offense to blondes" ! ) read more

Really enjoyed my first visit here. 1. Our sever was extremely knowledgable and willing to share any recommendations. She also have us a little lesson on where the inspiration came from with the decor along with little tips on the history of the statement pieces. Really interesting. 2. Happy hour was worth it. $5 house glass of wine. I also had bruschetta, the cheese plate and a salami tray. All were wonderful. But what stuck out the most were the desserts. We ordered 2 different desserts - an apple tarte of some sort, and a chocolate cake...both were out of this world!! Highly recommend the desserts. It has a parking lot which is a big perk. Will definitely come back. Probably for happy hour, because I'm cheap. read more

I came here the other night and ordered a dirty martini--the waiter misunderstood and brought me a lemon twist happens, it's whatever I've worked in bars and restaurants so I get a misunderstanding or a little mistake; but they bring it I say oh I ordered a dirty martini with olives, the waitress says she'll bring the right drink. The bartender then comes to the table and is like "what was the issue" I say well I ordered a gin dirty martini not a lemon twist anyways we're there thirty minutes I never get my drink (they bring me three lemon twist martinis and then a dirty martini I saw them just take the lemon out of and serve with an olive) anyways we're there 30 minutes they never bring the person I was with their drink, never took any appetizer orders and it was just the rudest service I've ever experienced. I'm obviously upset about the martini (if you don't know how to make it all good just say that) but besides that the staff was rude, inattentive to the person I was with, even if they didn't like me at least bring the drink my friend ordered. But 30 minutes our server came once, staff was rude and can't make a dirty martini....I would recommend avoiding at all costs unless your kink is rude 45 year old bartenders who don't know what they're doing then enjoy this spot. read more

What a perfect spot to sit down and have A flight of wine with a friend or on a date. I have not actually eat in the food yet but I do know their drinks are wonderful the selection is huge and I would Highly recommend going here for a quick stop off for a drink read more

It was DELICIOUS. Our waiter was so helpful with suggestions. We shared the spaghetti a la chitarra and torchio. Both were fabulous. Then he recommended a dessert that was the special. Very light and fluffy donut like balls with powdered sugar. Can't wait to go back. read more

We went here opening weekend and really enjoyed it! I'd have to say that it's a bit spendy for what you get, and not a lot of mid-priced choices, but that was ok with us. Tons of cheeses to choose for a cheese plate, and great wine selection. Atmosphere was great, very chill and I could totally see going there with some friends or on a date night. We didn't try anything besides a couple wines and a cheese plate, so can't speak to the food. But I'll definately go back. read more

As a second-generation Italian, I wanted to celebrate Father's Day with my two sons enjoying great Italian-inspired food. Terzo is an offshoot of the Broder family's successful Broder's Pasta Bar and Broder's Deli dominating the 50th St & Penn Ave intersection. The 3 of us were seated at a 2-person table across from the only windowed table in the place so it was pleasant, but space was tight. Our server was terrific, engaging in conversation and staying in touch often to ensure we had drinks, and offering menu and wine suggestions. However, the Italian wines - Montepulciano and Valpolicella ($13/glass) - were uninteresting, one-dimensional and not fruity. When browsing the menu, you'll immediately notice the number of Primi and Secondi dishes are quite limited. We started with 4 appetizers - Porchetta, Robiolo (cheese), Arancini (rice balls) and Octopus Bruschetta. The Porchetta was thinly sliced but was 95% fat. The Robiolo cheese was soft, creamy and delicious like that of Muenster cheese and quite enjoyable. The Arancini was light and crispy, but the strong flavor of Pecorino cheese overpowered all other flavors and was not served with the traditional marinara sauce. The Octopus Bruschetta was the best of the four appetizers. The octopus was tender with a perfect hint of lemon in a light cream sauce over greens served on homemade toasted focaccia bread for a great marriage of texture and flavor. For the pasta course, I had their Stringozzi Nero, a homemade squid ink pasta similar to spaghetti but rectangularly shaped in a spicy tomato ragu with crab and uni butter. I was quite surprised by the composition of this dish expecting pasta in a light cream sauce with crab, uni butter and chopped tomato, but instead it was more like a heavy, peppery Arrabiata tomato sauce masking the flavor of the pasta, crab and uni so much so that I could not taste anything but black pepper and tomato paste. A very disappointing dish poorly executed! My sons had the risotto that was impeccably prepared "al dente" with peas, garlic, cheese and crispy prosciutto. Finally, we shared the Chicken Involtini, 3 thick slices of chicken breast with a little sausage wrapped in speck and served with a generous portion of morels and grilled asparagus over a Marsala reduction. The chicken was dry and the speck was overly salty. There was a mere teaspoon of flavorless Marsala on the plate making for an overall dissatisfying entrée. The server comp'd the dish after I described its flaws. This place felt like it was going through the growing pains of a new restaurant yet it has been operating for nearly 5 years. Unfortunately, Terzo failed to satisfy. read more

My partner and I are on a budget and don't eat at such fancy eateries often, so we were looking forward to a wonderful experience at Terzo. It did not disappoint! Everything from the service to personal touches to our meals was amazing! We skipped wine but ordered 2 of the larger-sized dishes to share. The risotto was so flavorful- each bite got better! The bread, house small plate, and other entree were delicious and overall, we were really satisfied. We expected to pay more than we usually can and ordered just a few things, but the bill would be quite hefty if we had included drinks or apps/desserts in our meal. Would recommend for a really special experience! read more

Review for Porchetteria: Beyond sloppy, super salty, stale, burnt mess. Made us sad and mad ~we had higher hopes. read more

This is our second visit. Great wine, food and service. It ain't cheap, but you get what you pay for. We enjoyed the lamb, short ribs, pesce, and scallops as a main course. Also had the bruschetta trio and dessert. We had poached pears and chocolate hazelnut cake. Check it out! read more

Terzo is one of my top three favorite restaurants in Minneapolis and it just keeps getting better and better with each visit. The wine list is perhaps my favorite part, with interesting, esoteric, and thoughtfully curated selections from all across Italy. If you want a Chardonnay, they can help you. If you want to get weird, they can help you. You can order any glass by the half and any bottle, too, so if you want to explore, you can drink around and find something new to love. The staff is also very well-educated about the list, which is a big bonus. It's clear that training here is a big deal, and it shows. All of the employees I've interacted with really know their menus and seem to really care. The food is also excellent. From a simple meat and cheese plate to the sublime vitello tonnato to the pillowy, robust sformatino, the food changes seasonally, showcasing some classics and some innovative takes on Italian food created with craft and integrity. We are so lucky to have the Broder boys at the top of their respective games, coming together to turn out rock star food and drink every night. Now if only Penn Ave would reopen, so it'd be a straight shot from my house... read more

The pasta is great and thats the nicest thing i can say. Completely pretentious servers (at the bar) who would rather hear the sound of their own voice vs listening to what you want. No water refill. No checking in on the meal. Not that busy and yet had no time for us. Ick. read more

My son brought me here for the Porchetta Sandwich, it was the bomb. Gotta go here just for that. Great atmosphere.

We love Italian wine and went for a casual dinner + wine on Friday night. I loved the ambiance: rustic, quiet and cool with the huge wine cellar in the back. We tried the dishes recommended by our server: Burrata di Buffala, Chicken Liver and the Octopus - all outstanding. We also ordered a few entrees to share and my personal favorite was Chicken Involtini. It was the juiciest chicken breast I have ever had! The dish came with oyster mushrooms and swiss chard, which usually I am not a big fan of, but it was cooked the way that made me change my mind. The cheese platter we ordered for dessert was simply amazing. I was absolutely stunned by the wine list. I don't think there is another restaurant or wine bar in Minneapolis that offers Italian wine by region. What a fantastic idea! Terzo has really impressive collection of Piedmontese and Tuscan wines. We ordered a bottle of Barbaresco and a bottle of Brunello di Montalcino. Both were really good. We will most definitely be back to try more red wine when the temperature cools down. read more

This is a charming place. You feel like you are in Europe. I would just recommend that the chefs curb the butter use. The risotto was swimming in it as were the carrots: really not necessary as the taste of both are wonderful. Otherwise lovely. read more

Very inviting menu; sweetbreads were impressive (albeit aggressively seasoned), arancini were delightful and served on a surprisingly large amount of tender, pulled short ribs, though the Bolognese pappardelle was a bit one note. Good selection of Italian wines by the glass. read more

This place feels like a hipster restaurant trying to be a classic Italian place with a twist. They ran out of Chianti so we went for a wine flight instead and the server brought three heavily oaked and overly spicy wines, none of which tasted anywhere near a Chianti, which is what I had suggested the wine flight should align to. He also commented on the wine another table had just enjoyed by saying the wine was very "one dimensional" so "it's ok if that's what you like". I'm sure he also loves triple IPAs and thinks everyone should like them as much as he does. The food was nothing to write home about. Overall the service was OK and food was the same. Our bill after tip came to $110.. not worth it read more

We had a disappointing experience here. We'd planned a special family dinner, so we made the dinner reservation 1 month in advance. We were for some reason seated at a family table next to an extremely loud party, so basically couldn't hear each other. (But we do now know an adequate amount about the other party's post-dinner planned sexual activities.) The food was fine. It is definitely overpriced. We had the scallops, steak, branzino, and some pasta. It was tasty but nothing special. The wine was good! Could've used more of it... read more

It was perfect for what I was looking for, a wonderful glass of wine and a delicious appetizer. The bartender was so very helpful in picking a great red (I'm not that experienced but know what I like) and then a perfect accompaniment to that wine. I could comfortably sit at a window seat alone, looking outside. It was a delightful experience. read more

This place is fantastic! Really enjoyed their take on different favorite Italian dishes. All of the items we had were delicious and well thought-out. The bruschetta was amazing. So many different flavors and colors that came together beautifully. The pork sandwich was great! Pork was tender and seasoned perfectly! Highly recommend! read more

Holy Yes. Finally, we have found it, a fabulous, wonderful, local hangout. We've got lots of cute restaurants in the Armitage/Fulton neighborhood, but sometimes you feel guilty if you just want to stop in somewhere for a drink. Not anymore. Terzo to save the day. The man and I stopped in on a Sunday evening to check it out. We popped up to the big wooden bar and took a seat, admiring the 20 wine bottles hooked up and ready to be served by the glass. They have a ton of wine by the glass, I would probably say closer to 30ish. The wine program is amazing and the servers and bartenders really know their stuff. Also, check out the light fixtures - very cool. I started out with a lambrusco - which I don't think I have ever seen on a menu before - especially not by the glass. The man started with a lovely dolcetto - can't go wrong there! We got a few smaller items to share. The menu set up is, at first, confusing. They have it split into about 7 sections. One section is smaller items, including a skewer of the day. Another is a bruschetta section, including a bruschetta of the day. The other sections are split up between small plates, from the sea options, and some main dishes. But the stars of the show are the meat and cheese platters. They have really done something great here. They have 3, count 'em 3, different kinds of prosciutto. Then they also have roughly 8-10 varieties of cheeses and salumi meats. A great selection of both Italian and American meats, the cheese lean towards mostly Italian. For food we did the following: Skewer of the day: melon wrapped with prosciutto with powdered olive oil and aleppo pepper. Could have done without the pepper, that is how good the rest of it was. Brought me right back to a small restaurant in Milan where melon and prosciutto was one of their specialties. Bruschetta of the day: garlic rubbed crostini with fresh, creamy burrata cheese, olive oil, and chives. Nom nom nom. Fried baby artichokes with lemon aioli. Not battered and fried, light and crispy and that lemon aioli - wow. Meat plate of goodness: prosciutto di Parma, summer truffle salumi, and a fennel spiced type soft salumi. Served with some great pickled veggies. Servings were all pretty decently sized - we weren't starving when we came there however, we probably would have needed to order a few more items to really fill up. Now, here is where the 5th star is earned for me: dessert. I've said it before and I'll say it again, if a small restaurant takes the time to do good dessert, then that really sets them apart. Terzo desserts almost stole the show. We had a small cookie plate and a braised and caramelized pineapple with mango sorbet, basil sauce, and powdered olive oil. The pineapple had amazing flavor, the mango sorbet was so bright and clean, and the basil brought just the right amount of savory. The cookie plate was just about the cutest thing I've ever seen. If I was a little girl, I would want to bring my American girl doll for a party. It comes with an assortment of house made cookies and candies, including hazelnut torrone, a chocolate truffle, the infamous ugly but good cookie, and a few other great options. I'm sure they probably change this platter quite frequently so I can't wait to order it again. I mean, I really don't think I can say enough great things about Terzo. We had such a great experience from start to finish and I really can't wait to go back again . . . and again . . . and again. read more

Great little place. We came on a weeknight as a group of four and had a wonderful meal. It is very cozy in there, and I like how the bar area is separated from the restaurant if you only want the wine bar and not the whole restaurant experience. We had glazed pork cheeks, the gnocchi, and arctic char. All were fabulous. Service was great as well. We will definitely be back especially this summer, their patio looks awesome! read more

I mean, so I went on a date with my girl friend. So what, this place is still the perfect date spot, for sure. Maybe I'll try to bring someone I actually have a shot with next time... As most people have mentioned, this place is gorgeous, with beautiful lights, a warm ambiance, and a wine cellar we were lucky enough to be seated next too. Obviously, this being a wine bar, our server had to be very knowledgeable in suggesting the perfect food and wine pairings, and she did a spectacular job on that. As mentioned in their website, Terzo's menu is seasonal and whimsical, and we were delighted with every dish we had. The truffle and crimini mushroom bruschetta was divine -- the truffle hit my nose before the plate even hit the table. They were that generous with the truffle oil (now only if I could get some actual truffles for $6...right). They had a special of squash blossom fritters filled with mascarpone and lightly fried, and that beautiful, delicate dish was just that. I also got a large plate of lamb medallions, although I should note their large plate still tend to seat on the smaller side. Or maybe it's the right, non-American portion and we're just fat fussies. Yup, I just made "fussy" into a noun. The dish was meticulously plated, and it was almost too pretty to eat. I ate it anyway, and it was delicious at every bite. My 'date' had the salmon flan, which was a fascinating take on salmon. Pair all that with a great glass (or 1/2 for more sampling) of wine, and you'd almost forget that Broder's was across the street. This brainchild from the folks over at Broder's is one full-grown, full-bodied eatery. read more

Great find, everything about Terzo is done well from the ambiance and menu to the exceptional service. Might be my favorite discovery in Minneapolis to date. Come here for great pasta, excellent wine, and overall fantastic cooking. read more

Amazing food, friendly staff, insane selection of great wines, and a very involved owner who interacts with customers and takes pride in his restaurant, but always looking to improve things to make it even more spectacular. A sister restaurant to Broders but more upscale (and more expensive but totally worth it). Great atmosphere, nice bar area and outdoor area as well (but it was cool that night so we hung out at the bar instead). I can't believe it too us this long to discover this place as it has been around for a couple years before we moved away from MN. We can't wait to return! read more

Very mediocre food & high prices. Completely flummoxed as to why this place is so highly rated. Had the cheese plate that was comprised of four small pieces of uninteresting cheese - nothing local- maybe Costco cheese sliced up? Then we each had a salad - again extremely mundane / not particularly tasty or fresh greens. If the price matched the quality I would be ok. But the Broders think you can add a few chandeliers & mark up commercial style food & dub it Italian. Well good for them but I won't be back. read more

Excellent. Authentic. Knowledge staff. Only one thing missing- the larda! Bring it back!!!

Signed up with yelp after my experience at terzo. The food was average but the service was terrible. I could not get the bartenders attention because he was always talking with a girl at the bar. I do not care if it was his girlfriend, you customer should come first!!! We will not come back because of this childish situation. read more

A stellar experience. Pricey, but worth it. Unique, flavorful, scratch dishes and spectacular wines. Very quaint atmosphere.
