honestly, a bit disappointing. I heard good things about this restaurant but it wasn't what I expected. Service was a bit slow but the food was good, not great. The lobster ravioli was undercooked (pasta was not soft) and the peas were hard. The lasagna was better but definitely needed more cheese. Prices were market but the food wasn't worth what we spent.

Food was mediocre and rail staff was very annoyed by the amount of children who were in the restaurant (it was Mother’s Day). Portions were small, the staff neglected to tell us that they had run out of menu items until after the appetizers had been brought out and then were annoyed when we requested to look at the menu again to figure out what we wanted to eat instead of what we had originally ordered.

Brace was a fabulous salesman😊 and we purchased a bottle of Italian Grenache that was very good. Mother’s Day specials list was a nice mix of beef and pasta…no fish, but plenty of fish options on regular menu. Seafood lasagna and Chiopino both excellent. Heard they have a happy hour Monday thru Friday 4-6…we’ll definitely return. Enjoyed our Mother’s Day dinner very much.

Absolutely lousy service, food overpriced and nothing to rave over. Loud and very rude server. Oh, and the drinks were lousy for the price. Go elsewhere and have a good meal. Doesn’t rate 1 star.

I was quite disappointed with this restaurant. We’ve been thinking about trying this restaurant for several years. Our granddaughter chose Terra & Acqua for her special birthday dinner. The bread and oil and vinegar were good. The water served at the table was lukewarm. Our granddaughter couldn’t eat her food. She had ravioli with lobster sauced with red bell peppers purée. 2 others in our party had the gnocchi which was good, not great. Another had chicken parm. He asked for spaghetti instead of mashed potatoes. Not as good as a chain. The caprese salad was good. Great drinks I will give them that. A couple shared tiramisu which was more like tapioca pudding with hard cookies. Nothing soaked in espresso and too much whipped cream. This was a horrible disappointment. We were overcharged and under impressed. It’s a shame.
