Terracotta delivers a warm, authentic Tunisian dining experience in Montreal with generous portions and a friendly, attentive team. The menu features signature dishes such as lamb gargoulette, honey lamb that many praise for its tenderness and flavor, octopus salad, the ojja and kafteji, and a variety of traditional sides and desserts, all crafted with bold spices and thoughtful presentation. Guests highlight the cozy ambiance, often with a lovely terrace, and the welcoming service that makes guests feel at home, with Ramadan iftar options and a minty house made lemonade. While the majority of visits are highly satisfying, a few meals have fallen short due to issues like uneven doneness or seafood not being thoroughly cleaned, but positives far outweigh these moments and the staff typically addresses concerns quickly. Overall Terracotta is described as a standout North African option in the city and a place worth returning to with friends and family.
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
Ce restaurant typique Tunisien a été une très belle expérience! Nous étions un groupe de 14 personnes & nous avons pris le brika, les salades, Kafteji, Oija Merguez, & le restaurant nous a fait un service spécial pour nous offrir toute cette variété de choix. Le service était excellent, vite, chaleureux & personnalisé. Parfait pour une occasion de large groupe (avec réservation au préavis). 10/10
