Terra

5 ⭐ all around
Service was great and the food was amazing. Cocktail/ wine list is unique and interesting. We had the Korean BBQ lettuce wraps, fried oysters, soft shell crab, and steak & fries. All perfectly done and delicious. Highly recommend.

This is my second time here. I was a little skeptical because the first time i came, there was a "covid menu." But this time, it was superb! We had a wonderful time! I was really impressed with how smooth it was with our large group. We bought almost EVERY appetizer on the menu. I love the wine selection. It's definitely a five-star entree. Menu. I will definitely refer this restaurant to others.

I like the funky jazz music they have in the background. The list of beers is amazing. I recommend the tiny bomb pilsner with the cold oysters. I will come back definitely.
Update, New years dinner here 2023. I highly recommend the fried oysters. There was also a potato pancake with caviar, excellent 👌👌👌. Our waitress, Kaitlin was the best.

This riverside eatery is a great place to take in the city skyline view. There are amazing menu options for vegans, beautiful specially made cocktails, alongside seasonal wines and beers.

Excellent! Loved the food. Our server was a bit busy with other tables, one with a big party, but I was pleased to see that her co-workers were helping out. Two other people came to take care of what we needed, so we still had great service.

Delightful ladies' night at Terra! Wonderful staff, good food, tasty drinks (French 75). I would definitely go back!

The food was excellent. Our server Jazlee was great! Highly recommend the steak and the flounder. And our desert with in house made ice cream was amazing. Will definitely be returning.

The swordfish was phenomenal! And I am not known for raving over food. The portions are not huge, but that means I didn't leave feeling stuffed. If I'd left right then I would've been thrilled, but I had the turtle cheesecake for dessert and it was at best okay. I would've preferred to have left with the memory of the swordfish. But the service was good. 2 people for dinner was $100 so it's not the cheapest option out there, but I would - and will - go back.

This was a dinner date and the service and food were spot-on! The server was very observant and left us alone unless she saw a need! She made great suggestions for wine pairings. The food, the wine, and the atmosphere made for a great evening and date.

First time at Terra. It was delicious. Everything was tasty. Our apps were Korean short rib lettuce wraps and Brussells Nomi-yaki with fun Bonito flakes effect. All very tasty. For dinner, my husband had Carolina Heritage Farm Pork Milanese and I had the Pan seared Flounder. We both enjoyed the dinner with our sides. It filled us up but not so much we were overwhelmed. It was delicious! We ordered desserts and they were the best and most innovative we've ever had in Columbia, SC. Their dessert menu even had a Filipino dessert called Turon. We ordered the Almond Joy pie and Raspberry Chocolate bombe. They were amazing! We had a friendly waitress who checked on us timely. It was a great dinner and I can't wait to go back!

Our experience at Terra was without a doubt among the absolute top dining experiences for us. We went for our anniversary dinner, and my boyfriend coordinated with the managers to deliver a surprise treasure chest/gift box to our table for me to open. They did beautifully with this! The food was 110% amazing. All of it. We got the green salad with goat cheese, lamb mac, oysters, and founder. My boyfriend couldn’t stop asking for the lamb mac recipe—do NOT come here without eating it! We also had the cookies and cream dessert dish. Yum! All in all wonderful night, and so glad my boyfriend decided to reserve a table here.

Hands down some of the best food and cocktails in the Columbia/West Columbia area. I have frequented Terra since they opened for either a nice happy hour, dinner with friends before theater or concerts and especially date night. The food has been consistently amazing over the years and the cocktails are creative with excellent combinations of seasonal fruits or just really excellent high end liquor. My definite “go to” when I’m looking for a fine dining night out!

By far one of the best spots in Columbia/WECO! The quality of the food and the people are the best there is. I simply don’t have words for how much I love this place. It’s perfect for a dinner alone, a date, a family meal, a celebration, a quick pizza to go, anything and everything!!

First time eating at Terra’s. They have a special on Wednesdays for a pizza and a bottle of wine. Pizza was delicious and added an appetizer and dessert! Great date night spot and we spent under $60!

Very good service and delicious food. Tried the Lamb Mac and Cheese, Flounder and swordfish - everything is was very good! Their specialty cocktails 'Eddie would go' and 'WeColapolitan' went well with the food.

Great service. Delicious food. The mules were awesome, but hardly had any drink, the large ice cube made it seem like you got a regular size drink. Pizzas were ok, I heard they were the best, they were just ok, kinda soggy. The Mahi Mahi was Delicious, the steak was perfect. Not pleased with the oysters. Mac and cheese was good.

Phenomenal service at its finest and top quality food it was amazingly delicious. Will definitely be eating here more often.

I visit Columbia often and New Years Eve was my first time dining at Terra. The food was delicious, and our server Jilbert was amazing! I will be returning!

My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of dining at Terra this past Saturday evening. Everything from our exquisitely prepared cuisine to our server was amazing. I had a salad and scallops with the opera cake and it was the best meal I’ve had in Columbia. My husband had an amazing carpaccio appetizer with a pizza. All of their menu items are farm to table fresh, so their menu changes according to the season. To make an already great meal even better, be sure to try one of their many desserts created by their own pastry chef. We had such a memorable meal and can’t wait to return!

The idiom, "You get what you pay for." fits this amazing place perfectly. It's a little pricey but, so worth it! Honestly, I'd pay more, it was so good! So it's definitely not overpriced and they pair things together where you are comfortably full from just a main dish. The atmosphere is perfect for group outings or a romantic date. I enjoyed it so much I'd definitely treat myself to a meal here. It definitely has that, "make you feel loved and/or important" vibe. And they do a little birthday treat with a single candle. I totally loved that!
