Terra - Danbury

This past weekend, I ventured into Terra, nestled within the chic Hotel Zero Degrees in Danbury, Connecticut ?. This gem of a hotel houses an exceptional, upscale restaurant that boasts an extensive menu that will satisfy any food lover’s palate ?️.Our appetizers set the bar pretty high. First up was the crispy buffalo cauliflower, adorned with micro celery and a decadent gorgonzola sour cream ?️?. The cauliflower struck the perfect balance crispy without being overly fried, bursting with flavors that scored a delicious 9/10 on my scale. Next, we savored the gnocchi al forno, a heavenly blend of porcini mushroom cream, nduja (pork), and lemon breadcrumbs ??. The mushrooms effortlessly won my heart, earning an easy 10/10.For our mains, we explored the hidden fjord salmon, accompanied by heirloom beans, Brussels sprouts, and a rich porcini and tomato sugo ??. While the sauce had a slightly off note, the salmon itself was impeccably cooked, meriting a 7/10. The 12 oz. C.A.B. strip steak, served with duck fat potatoes, mixed mushrooms, and sherry vinegar, was a carnivore’s delight, perfectly medium rare with a sauce that was nothing short of amazing ??. And let’s not forget the special fish tacos that were so delightful, I believe they deserve a permanent spot on the menu ?? 9/10.Dessert was a sweet finale with their strawberry shortcake in a cup and a luxurious chocolate cake with pistachio ice cream ???. Both desserts were a testament to indulgence, effortlessly meriting a 9/10 with their perfect pairings and depth of flavor.For those with a penchant for espresso martinis, Terra’s rendition, where the coffee taste is subtly masked, is an absolute must try ?. Beyond the exquisite food, Terra’s vibrant ambiance and extensive drink selection make it a must visit spot ??.Overall Scores:Food: 9/10 ?0 ?Ambiance: 8/10 ?Terra isn’t just a meal; it’s an experience worth indulging in. Whether you’re a foodie or just in search of a great spot to dine, Terra promises an unforgettable experience

Fantastic atmosphere, very friendly staff. The pizzas and burgers are fantastic, as was the carpaccio. Will definitely return!

Imagine sitting at a table and still having your drinks on the table and being given your check.... Really poor judgement. That is NOT right, you rushed us and told us you had another reservation. When I said when I made the reservation that we would be staying for the show. Shame on you. Terrible management. And working in the business I would never do that, ever......

This is my favorite restaurant in the area! Great ambience, good cocktails and delicious food! Been there so many times and will be back again! Great job Terra ??

NY style and service. Food was excellent, nice selection of wines. The only negative is most restaurants of this caliber have a chefs choice special.
