Terza Ristorante - Rochester

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 that contrasted the peaches perfectly. I would highly recommend Terza to anyone looking for a classy restaurant for dates, time with the family, or otherwise just a fantastic meal. Budget conscious patrons should be aware that it is very easy to end up spending much more than you intended, especially if dining in a group.

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!
