    We had another very enjoyable meal last night at Terrapin! The pork was delicious and the most tender I have ever tasted. The duck was done to perfection! The service was the best! This was our fourth visit and are never disappointed! We’ll be back, that’s for sure!

    Wonderful. Beginning with the warm welcome from the hostess which I believe was the owner to our server Julia. A lovely evening. A surprise to find a fine dining experience in Bodega Bay. Mediterranean fish stew was outstanding.

    This is the best restaurant on the Sonoma/Marin coast. Divine, fresh, seasonal food offerings include: fresh local oysters served with a tangy mignonette, Caesar salad, insanely great mushroom soup, perfectly cooked bavette steak and heavenly halibut. Finish with the bread pudding with pears and you will have enjoyed a perfect meal with brilliant service. Not to mention the perfect martinis. So grateful to be able to enjoy dinners here throughout the seasons!

    Fantastic meal at Terrapin Creek. It was Saturday and the staff was very busy but did a great job. The starters and entrees are faboulous along with the dessert. Will be back during our next trip.
