Restaurant tunisien excellent. Le propriétaire est aux petits soins & on ressent qu'il est passionné de la cuisine qui propose à ses clients. Je recommande grandement car c'est la 2e fois que je viens !

Omg! Delicious flavor combos we have never experienced before, Harrisa, caraway, nutmeg, eggs & tuna. Who would have thought? Totally unique serving style in terracotta "gargolettes". If you consider yourself a foodie, Terracotta should be high on your next restaurant to visit list. Yum!

Wow! What a unique dining experience. The staff is so friendly & we enjoyed traditional Tunisian food - the lamb gargoulette, which is slow cooked for 8 hours with potatoes, onions & tomatoes. The waiter then serves the meal out of a terracotta pot & pulls the meat off the bone in front of you. Absolutely delicious & tasted like a traditional home cooked meal! You can tell the restaurant really cares about the quality of the food & service & puts a lot of love & attention into it.
I would eat everything here. Our server told us that if Terracotta served every good dish from Tunisia then i would need to come here every day for six months, & i swear i might.
Très bon restau, cuisine tunisienne traditionnelle. La brika / salade trio puis merguez & agneau, tendre avec une super sauce. Personnel charmant. Beau nouvel établissement sur Duluth où nous retournerons assurément! Merci à l'équipe.

Went here yesterday with a group of friends! Excellent food & the waiters were super nice & genuine! Shout out to our waiter Selim for serving us & helping our friend get an icebag too XD
Lovely terrace & restaurant atmosphere. The food is amazing, very tasteful, full of quality spices & generous. + staff is really kind & friendly. Highly recommend & will surely come back.
I was there, everything was perfect. C'était de la bouffe incroyable, ils nous ont fait voyager à la Tunisie sans voyager, j'ai adoré tout, surtout leur dessert aux noisettes qui était très délicieux à la fin 🥰 we love you guys
