Terza

One of the best if not the best restaurant in town. Stopped in for Mothers Day. Their salmon special was delicious. Managers are responsive and really care about each patrons experience. I can't stress more how accomidating the staff is. Get dressed up and enjoy a wonderful dinner. Still great. Went out Sunday before Valentine's. Their specials were great. I had the Scampi and Filet. Don't miss the heart box of truffles. The balloon decorations were great.

Fantastic dining experience between the service, food and atmosphere. It's a rarity to find Chicken Piccata, and Terza's is well worth the trip.

The food if phenomenal, the cocktails are better than average, wine selection is solid, service is great, and it's all in a beautiful, quiet venue, and it's quite affordable if you keep things basic, and it won't break the bank if you go decadent. The chicken picatta was recommended yo me by our waitress and we tried the calamari for fun and found both to be excellent. Perfect place to go with a lovely date or cherished loved one.

Terza is a delightfully classy place to spend an evening, without feeling overly formal. I don’t make a habit of eating out, usually preferring to put something together myself instead. Sometimes, however, it’s nice to spend time with my family and not worry about doing all the prep work myself. Finally relenting to the insistence of my sister, I decided to try Terza; her new favorite Italian restaurant. We arrived around 5:45 pm on a Friday evening, which turned out to be perfect, as we were in the door before the rest of the rush of dinnertime walk-ins. We chose seats at the bar, and enjoyed lightning-fast and highly responsive service. I ordered us an appetizer of their fried calamari and an entrée of Tortelloni Rosa with a glass of La Crema Pinot Noir. My mother ordered their Roasted Root Vegetable salad and a pint of Little Thistle Brave Woman. My father chose the Sausage and Peppers Pizza and a Surly Axe Man to drink. We had our drinks scant seconds after ordering and spent the next few short minutes making small talk before the calamari was delivered along with a plate of freshly sliced bread. The calamari was delightful, being lightly battered and fried just long enough to be crispy, without feeling overly greasy. The bread was also a very fine appetizer, being warm fresh from the oven with an airy crumb and good crust. Another few short minutes pass as we sip our drinks, and our entrrée arrive. I barely have time to appreciate the elegant plating of my tortelloni before being lured in by the aroma, and dig in to enjoy the exceedingly creamy and savory flavors. The rich, plummy flavor of the wine made a perfect pair with the pasta. After we had finished our entrees and had a moment to digest, I made the choice to order a dessert. From the feature card, I asked for a Peach Crostata, and it was rather promptly delivered. The crust was light and flaky, the filling richly spiced and not too sweet, and it was served with freshly whipped and chilled vanilla cream

Our favorite is the fig and prosciutto pizza - delicious!! Great service and menu options. I'm happy that there are mocktail options now, would love to see a few more. We can't wait for the patio to open!

Another gem in Rochester. Excellent service. Food was clearly made in-house and very fresh. Would definitely go back.

My 1st time there and had the Lamb Chops, which were exquisite. We had a large group and a waiter in his 1st day of work and he did excellent. Highly recommend, will be returning.

Best Italian food!!! Had Cheese Ravioli ❤️

The food is excellent, as is the service. The noise level at dinner is loud and makes conversation difficult.

We really enjoyed this place! Bummed I didn't get to try the steak and bleu ziti, but the bolognese was a very close second.

We wanted to love this place, but didn't. Waiter was not attentive to us (had to remind him about ordered drinks after waiting 20 minutes and did not seem to want to be working (maybe he had an off day?) Food was good but portions were inconsistent- our table of nine shared with those who did not seem to have much on their plate. Seems very odd to go away from an Italian restaurant a little bit hungry? Glad we ordered appetizers at least. Maybe they just had an off night, but we all expected a bit more in quality of service and a little more food on the plate for the price.

Fine dining Italian cuisine. Nicely balanced flavors. The roasted root vegetables served warm tossed in a rich balsamic dressing was not too acidic and tinged with just a bit of sweetness. The herb grilled scallops were cooked just right, tender, served with a light sauce that does not overpower the seafood, all presented atop a very rich risotto. The surprise was the steak and blue ziti. What a nice combination of umami from the steak cubes, mushrooms and brown sauce, add to it the tartness of blue cheese and acidic sweetness of sun dried tomatoes, served with perfectly al dente handmade ziti pasta. We’re told that Chef Vincenzo comes in every morning at the break of dawn to make all the different pasta variations for each restaurant day! Not cheap, but worth every penny.

Food was good. Service was much less than expected. I will try to avoid Rebecca as a server

Food was amazing! Service was fantastic and very accommodating. And the atmosphere was very nice yet comfortable. Great place for a special occasion or just a nice dinner!

I live in the cities nowhere near Terza, but if you asked me if I'd like to have dinner there tonight, I'd drop everything, hop in the car, and make the hour+ drive with a grin on my face. I'd be halfway there before I realized you hadn't gotten in.

Romantic place, we had a fabulous waiter (thanks Taylor!), great wine, they made me a custom vegan meal with their mothersauce. Fabulous.

Had a $70 wagu ribeye!! Meh was not very impressed 🤔

Terza is a must stop in Rochester. My wife and I have been here multiple times and have nothing but good things to say. The food is delicious, the service excellent, and the atmosphere is amazing.

The first time we came here was over 4 years ago when Bruce P was the GM. He made the experiences exceptional. Always checking on the tables himself. After he left we had a couple less then great experiences and meals. It just wasn’t the same. We didn’t come during Covid, and were slow to move back to our regular routines. We miss coming for lunch, it was a lovely place to take a break at. We came today for my mother & my birthday. She was turning 72 years old. We share a birthday, so take turns who picks. She specifically wanted to eat here, out of anywhere else in town. We were a party of five, were all pleased with our dishes and service. I do believe their is a new GM since we were last here in late ‘21 or early ‘22. Our server was a delight. He had a great sense of humor, but very professional. He didn’t stand around interrupting us, but always showed up when needed. He gave good recommendations too. Our food was prepared as we expected. Most everything was seasoned well, all served hot. Menu has a nice selection of options, for all diets and palates. Food is very rich and portions are quite generous. You’re NOT going to leave hungry. While I do miss feeling “like family” as we used to with Bruce, the food was exceptional and we enjoyed celebrating our birthdays here very much. Even our teenagers, jump at the chance to come here to eat with us!😳

Superb restaurant run by true professionals. This restaurant group is as good as any around.
