We went to Cafe Terracotta for a work lunch. The food and service was great. It was pretty busy and I was glad I made a reservation. I would definitely go back and recommend this restaurant.

This is the third time at Cafe Terracotta. The food was very good and fresh. Fast service but waiter only checked back once & never refilled my water or cleared dishes. Very noisy.
