The caprese with Oaxaca cheese is worth checking out. The pesto is great. Simultaneously smooth and also has a nice bite. The squid ink linguini is a wonderful... and don't sleep on dessert. If you're a small party, the bar is a great option, but the back patio is lovely, too. Service is prompt, friendly, and attentive. Ask for a wine recommendation if you're up for something new. I did. I'd never have picked the recommendation... and I learned something new. Maybe you will, too.

With beautiful trees growing through the floor to the ceiling, the gorgeous lights that twinkle and bring romance to the space, it is all perfect. The staff! Wow! We never felt rushed but always were attended to. The food came with the perfect attention to detail and timing. At no point did I feel rushed or a burden to anyone. What an amazing feeling. Now the food! I am from a very prominent Italian food area and I was very impressed with that selections. The lasagna was stunning, the carbonara needed nothing and gave you that sweet hug from the inside you dream of. I got the ravioli with butternut squash and ricotta. I was stunned. It has been over a week since I had it and I still dream about it at night. What a hidden gem!

For seafood recommending ordering the Spaghetti in Crosta. Comes with lobster tail, sea scallops, jumbo shrimp, calamari, mussels, and clams and is baked in their Woodfire oven.

We've been coming to Cozumel for 20+ years now. La Terraza used to be Primas back in the day where…read morewe would frequent on our vacations here. We were looking for a place and as I was checking reviews, I noted that La Terraza opened in place of Primas now, so we decided to give it a try. We were greeted and seated by the owner. Service was excellent. We ordered Beers while looking over the extensive Italian menu. Much of the menu items were the same as Primas, which leads me to believe different owner, same Chef? We started off with the Blue Cheese Salad, then ordered the Coconut Shrimp, Chicken Picatta, Shrimp appetizer, and the Lobster Pasta. The food was OK, portions were big. The salad was overdressed, Lobster in the pasta was bland and overcooked. The pesto on my toast for the shrimp appetizer tasted old and looked brown. The Coconut Shrimp and Chicken were good though. Atmosphere: very nice, roof top dining, Service: excellent, Food: OK

Well it looks like this restaurant has closed down. I went by last night (July 11, 2020) only to…read morefind it closed with a "for rent" sign over the top of the restaurant name. Although Yelp still shows it being open and the last look on yelp shows "Opens in 20 minutes." Couldn't possibly be. Im sure Cozumel is having some tough times due to the covid-19 issues. La Terraza was a favorite in Cozumel, that's for sure. The first time I went there, many many years ago, it was called Prima. Prima closed down and moved to the top of another building but it didn't last long there. Then La Terraza opened back up where Prima used to be. The same great food as before and it seemed to be doing ok. The reputation brought people back there time after time. I know it did me too. So if you happen to get on the island and are expecting to go here for dinner, at least now anyway, plan on being disappointed, because it's no longer open and be prepared to go elsewhere. Really too bad. Ed and Shannon (the owners) were pretty nice people.

Walking past another restaurant and decided to give it a try…read more It's definitely upper scale for around here and pricing reflects it. The salad was a strange rendition of the classic. Had more of a thousand island type dressing. It was served with what appears to be homemade garlic bread and was very good. Drink was very good and quite tasty. The entrees took awhile but not super long. Both dishes were ordered the pasta was Al dente. Sauce was good and the shrimp weee plentiful. The service was very good and they used a team concept to take care of everyone. Tried the outside seating but it was very wet and humid. Indoor seating was quiet and air conditioned. Everything is ala carte too. Overall good food and service. It's nice for a family or even a date.

My mother asks if we could cancel (we're starving waited long enough) and pay for the water bottle only. Owners show up aggressively insisting we stay as our food is ready to serve. Look at the food I ordered from their kitchen whole fish was not fried as asked just BONES. We walk out, waiter chases us down the street (almost 5 miles) to get the money for the water (after he said we don't have to pay after my mother offered to pay for it) then comes the owners in their scooter. Turns into an HOUR long dispute. They begin recording us, taunting us all the way down to the ferry entrance, called us the worst possible names, the husband PUSHED MY MOTHER twice and SPIT ON ME!!! He raised his hands up at me several times as if he was going to hit me! DISGUSTING, TRASH, UNEDUCATED, UNPROFESSIONAL corrupted police got involved they took their side even said we are required to pay for the food even if we didn't eat it threatened to pay up or my mother could spend 36 hours in jail! Longest review I've ever done be careful where you go to anywhere in MX! Después de 30 minutos de espera por nuestra comida (no asistieron otros clientes), mi madre le preguntó al camarero si llegaría nuestro aperitivo. El camarero dice que nunca hizo el pedido. Mi madre pregunta si podemos cancelar (nos morimos de hambre y esperamos lo suficiente) y pagar solo la botella de agua. Los propietarios aparecen agresivamente insistiendo en que nos quedemos mientras nuestra comida está lista para servir. Mire la comida que pedí en su cocina, el pescado entero no estaba frito como lo pedí, solo HUESOS. Salimos, el camarero nos persigue por la calle (casi 5 cuadras ) para conseguir el dinero para el agua (después de que dijo que no teníamos que pagar después de que mi madre se ofreció a pagarla) y luego vienen los dueños en su scooter. Se convierte en una disputa de una HORA. ¡¡¡Comienzan a grabarnos, burlándose de nosotros hasta la entrada del ferry, nos insultan con los peores nombres posibles, el marido EMPUJÓ A MI MADRE dos veces y ME ESCUPIÓ!!! ¡Levantó las manos hacia mí varias veces como si fuera a golpearme! ASQUEROSO, BASURA, SIN EDUCACIÓN, NO PROFESIONAL La policía corrupta se involucró, se pusieron de su lado, incluso dijeron que debíamos pagar la comida, incluso si no la comíamos, ¡amenazó con pagar o mi madre podría pasar 36 horas en la cárcel!

My husband usually gets a whole fried fish, but none were available on our last visit so he tried the fish fajitas instead. They were fresh and delicious. I tried the chile relleno and it was one of the best I've had anywhere, which is saying a lot because I love a good chile relleno. The chips and pico de gallo were also fresh and hard to stop eating. And the margaritas are always great. The staff is friendly and efficient, and they have several folks that speak English when out limited Spanish isn't enough. We definitely think it's worth a stop and recommend giving it a try.
