Review 4 for Cafe Terra Cotta

Overall Rating

(Fair)

"The restaurant was extremely noisy, and the service disjointed. After being served appetizers and salad, the server informed us that they had just run out of what my husband had ordered. We thought it was strange that the order had not been put in until then. They very nicely allowed him to order anything off the menu, even though we were there for 5280, and comped our drinks and dessert. The caesar salad was sub par, with too many unusual ingredients. Everything was way too sweet, including the balsamic vinegar in the dipping oil. My husband's dinner was really good, but my steak was tough and tasteless, and the french fries were extremely salty. We will give the restaurant one more try."

"I really enjoyed my dinner at Cafe Terracotta! I had been before, but only for breakfast, which is also fantastic! I didn't realize they offered dinner until I saw them listed for Denver Restaurant Week, which is what brought a friend and I in. We split the coconut shrimp, which were cooked perfectly! The ceasar salad was very tasty and an untraditional ceasar. I had the chicken wellington and thought it was very flavorful. Our waitress was fantastic...very friendly, didn't make us feel rushed and had great suggestions. I love the decor as well! What a charming little hidden place. I will definitely be back for breakfast and dinner!"

Review 6 for Cafe Terra Cotta

Overall Rating

(Fair)

"This is our second time here. This time was not so great, we were seated 50 mins past our reservation time and we came 15 early. All we got is, it's busy tonight sorry people don't want to get up out of their seats. To make things better the server keep yelling the special in our ears(annoying) even after we backed up, some people need space the servers beard shouldn't be touching my shoulder or ear. If you sit your reserved customers down more than 30 mins after their reservation, out of courtesy you should give them something off their bill 5-20% off they did wait 50 after they had the courtesy to make a reservation for a party of 4 for a birthday dinner and still tipped 20%."

Review 7 for Cafe Terra Cotta

Overall Rating

(Very Good)

"We had an enjoyable Friday night experience during Denver 5280 Restaurant weeks highlighted by the exceptional service and overall ambiance. I read other reviews which noted a very happy staff which definitely was apparent. The food however was really just OK. We had the Portabello mushroom appetizer which was pretty good and the beef skewers which were nothing special. The best thing about the main course was that it came out piping hot! I had the cornmeal crusted walleye which unfortunately tasted a little fishy, my wife had the Mahi-Mahi fish & chips which were nicely different, but just OK. Overall its a nice neighborhood spot which I might try again in the summer to enjoy the outside dining."

"Amazing food in a charming atmosphere with friendly and knowledgable wait staff. One of the most pleasant dining experience we've had in the Denver Metro area. Another GREAT addition to south Denver! Artistically pleasing interior design, featuring artwork by local artists. It's a little loud, but that didn't detract from our overall dinner experience. I would highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who wants fine dining without having to go downtown."

Overall Rating

"My wife and I visited Cafe Terra Cotta for the first time. It was exactly what we were hoping for- A small, but quaint location... hidden from most, but known by many. The service and food was excellent! The bread was warm and delicious. Followed by the beef skewers to start. The pesto was an excellent compliment to the melt-in-your-mouth skewers. The absolute best fish and chips we've ever had!

Although the tables are somewhat close together (due to the small area), you still felt comfortable chatting. The moderate noise level of others helped to offset any worries of eavesdropping.

We plan on coming back and trying breakfast..."

"The food was excellent: nice sized portions (not too small or too big), nicely done. The wine list was fine. The only complaint is that the entrees were very slow coming out. The restaurant was far from full, and the entrees were hot. I can only assume the kitchen staff were asleep at the wheel. This is the first time I've had slow food at Cafe Terra Cotta; hopefully it's a one time occurrence."

"Our third time for dinner here and it was the best yet! The specials are definitely worth getting; they are innovative and outstanding. We got both the appetizer special and one of us got the entree special. Wine list is decent with some surprising finds. Service was excellent, but we have noted it does depend on who your waitperson is. We now have our favorites. Ambience good, but when the place is almost full, the noise level is high as it's a small dining room. We enthusiastically recommend Cafe Terra Cotta for hearty breakfasts, simple lunches and for special occasion dinners. It fits the bill!"

"We attended the price fixe wine dinner and it was fantastic! The food was excellent and the wine subperb. We have been several times and the staff is extremely friendly, while the owners walk around, introduce themselves, ask about your meal and help with any questions, including wine selections, you may have. It is a very comfortable place to dine, and is truly a "neighborhood gem"."

"We had a delightful 60th birthday dinner celebration. Warm, cozy atmosphere, enhanced by the warm, friendly, thoughtful staff. Asparagus prosciutto salad and crusted walleye were especially good. Would love to know how the prosciutto was crisped - thin as onion skin, in perfect crinkled-parchment like pieces. Just right with the greens, asparagus and truffle oil. Veggies with the walleye were also perfectly al dente. Had brunch here over the holidays as well, and were equally impressed. Three generations, male and female, all loved the pear, ham and brie omelette!"

"This neighborhood restaurant serves very good food with friendly service. The Walleye was delicious. I feel that the food was pricy; and, we were rather upset to be rushed out at 945 p.m. (they started mopping the floor, and took away our coffee mugs). I cannot imagine this happening at any of Denver's more noteable restaurants."

"Even though we arrived a half hour early for our reservation, we were seated quickly. Our first choice of wine was not available so they substitied a higher end wine at the same price as the first. I like this restaurant a lot, but it does tend to get noisy because it is so small. It's a step up from casual but it is not stuffy, and it is still very comfortable."

Review 44 for Cafe Terra Cotta

Overall Rating

"Once again, the owners and staff were incredibly hospitable. The food was delicious and the wine selection very good. I love this place. It's one of those very special restaurants that you do not find in Denver very often.

Thanks,

Jill B."

Review 45 for Cafe Terra Cotta

Overall Rating

(Fair)

"The food was very expensive, $26 for a pork chop stuffed with apples, cranberries and walnuts. The meat was dry, red potato's not cooked well and butternut squash fair. For that price the food should have been outstanding and it just wasn't. This was my first time to eat there for dinner, previously eating lunch on their delightful patio in the summer. The inside of the restaurant is unremarkable for the prices charged. I was very disappointed."

"This was our first visit and we thoroughly enjoyed the dining experience. Waiter attentive but not hovering. A little noisy or "energetic" as we rated it. Split the meal, handled in the kitchen so there was no fussing at the table. Looking for a special occasion to return."

"My husband and I were brought to this restaurant by friends about a year ago for dessert and coffee and we have been back for dessert many times. We LOVE the nanaimo bar and the creme brulee is the best in town which held true during this visit. To celebrate our wedding anniversary we decided to try dinner.

We ordered our appetizers and a salad. The appetizers came out and then came the salads, less than a minute later.

The steak skewers were tender and delicious while the calamari was perfectly cooked but way too sweet. Our server possibly forgot about us as we sat and sat with our dishes in front of us. Finally our dishes were cleared. The trout appeared and tasted very good, perfectly cooked and seasoned.

Definitely go for de"
