Tunisian Cuisine ! Unique & delicious, Honey & pistachios on soft roasted lamb shank was totally new to us. Definitely a must try. More egg's than I expected 😁 fresh salads & some Smokey spicy ( very spicy) choice with the three salad app. Absolutely have the lemonade with honey, we made it through three, not too tarte or sweet - just right. Excellent attentive service. The pageantry of the lamb was very nice as well

Great food & ambience. What makes the experience truly great is the service - it's extremely warm & hospitable, almost like having a meal at someone's house. I don't know a lot about Tunisian cuisine, & this was a great introduction. Small details like the authentic dishware & the traditional style of serving food truly take it to the next level.
I had a great time eating here with my friends. I had the seafood, & my friends had the pasta. It was delicious. The staff were also very friendly & welcoming. I would definitely recommend a visit!
Terracotta est un excellent restaurant tunisien qui nous offre une expérience mémorable. Le service est digne d'un restaurant de renom, la nourriture est savoureuse & le décor nous plonge dans un univers où l'ambiance traditionnelle & réconfortante y règne. Je le recommande vivement !

Really great place my bf & I stumbled on by accident. We have never eaten Tunisian food before & it was a delicious experience. The waiter was kind & patient & took the time to show us pictures of menu items.
Je suis revenue encore & encore, & je suis si heureuse de retrouver Teracotta, mon véritable amour culinaire ! Après deux ans au Canada, j'avais perdu le goût de la nourriture réconfortante de ma maman. Aujourd'hui, j'ai enfin retrouvé ces saveurs qui me rappellent tant de souvenirs. Merci, Teracotta, & merci à toute l'équipe qui met tant de passion dans chaque plat. Que Dieu vous protège & vous bénisse pour tout ce que vous faites pour notre communauté. Votre dévouement nous touche profondément & nous inspire à savourer chaque moment !

Authentique cuisine tunisienne, service impeccable - l'équipe est chaleureuse, attentionnée & toujours souriante. Chaque plat est fait avec des ingrédients frais & d'une qualité irréprochable. En tant que tunisienne je recommande vivement!
Me & my family had an absolutely wonderful experience Friday night. Food was EXCELLENT & such a great experience! Customer service with everyone was seriously fantastic. I loved the terracotta water vases, it helps filtrate the water! Nonetheless, I recommend this place to anyone who wants a great experience & delicious food & something different than poutine! For only being 5 months old, I look forward to coming back next year & seeing them thrive, they deserve it!
This was my first time eating Tunisian food. Everything was delicious, portions were good & the service was great. The waiter took the time to explain each dish to us. We had the lamb, the trio salad & the merguez. I strongly recommend this place.
My first time trying Tunisian food. Really glad I came here, everything we tried was good. Recommend the Trio salad & the Ojja merguez very highly. Special mention to Fares who explained everything on the menu & recommended stuff for us to try too. Will definitely be back.
