Très bonne adresse que je recommande Plats tunisiens succulents, menu varié, portion généreuse, service de qualité & un très beau décor. En famille ou entre amis, ça vaut le détou
Overall : highly recommend. Honey lamb was decadent. Almost as good as the service ;) . Just kidding everything was SERVICE 4 of us came in on a Monday night & stayed until about 21:30. None of us had eaten Tunisian cuisine before. The server described the menu, provided excellent recommendations & was super attentive. Always had water, dishes were collected promptly & the food was delivered timely. FOOD Appies : got a couple fricasse. Mains : veg couscous, honey lamb, kafteji merguez, & the chicken ojja. Desserts : 2 crème brûlés : pistachio & a hazelnut Presentation was excellent. Portion sizes were great. & the flavours were POP-PING. My mouth did not stop salivating. I am sad I shared the honey lamb with my friends because it was so good & I wanted to eat it all myself. The couscous was a nice base for the other dishes, but was the least flavourful of the four dishes. Good, but wouldn't order it alone. Crème brûle is my favourite dessert & I appreciated their twist on it. Loved that they toasted it in front of us & poured nuts over top. I think it could have been more chilled but was delicious! Slightly heavier than OG CB's so we could have probably just split 1 instead of 2. AMBIANCE More traditional sitting options & tables. Lovely & comfortable decor with music that wasn't too loud. ALSO THEY HAVE BRUNCH - ummm helllllllo. Loveeee that! Will definitely be coming back here. Thank you for a wonderful evening out!
Stumbled across Terracotta while walking along Duluth for the first time in a while & one person in our group felt like pasta. Seems like they're a newer establishment. After our experience there, we were glad to have found them :) The food was tasty, with generous servings, & our server Sabre (i am guessing on spelling there) was lovely. Our party of three tried out the following mains which we all enjoyed: pates quatre fromages (4 cheese pasta), pates saumon (salmon pasta), cotelettes d'agneau (lamb chops) We also tried out their citronade - super fresh, I believe they juice the lemons themselves. For dessert, they had a pistachio crème brûlée that day - which most of our party loved (a bit too sweet for one of us). We'd be happy to return again to try more of their Tunisian menu!

The service here was incredible, they are so kind! We got takeout but I loved the ambience of the restaurant & the seating. We got the - couscous agneau - ojja Terracotta - lamb gargoulette They were all very delicious. We liked the flat bread more than the puff one, as it has an amazing chew. It was my first time having Tunisian food & I really enjoyed it!
Excellente nourriture & une belle ambiance. Nous y sommes allée samedi soir une ambiance très conviviale. Les serveurs sont a vos petits soins & s arrange toujours pour proposer le meilleur. Merci & c est certain a très bientôt.
Meilleur restaurant tunisien au Québec !! Très heureuse d'avoir fait la découverte de ce restaurant aujourd'hui. Nous étions bien accueilli. Un service impeccable, un staff chaleureux poli & souriant. Une ambiance atypique calme & chaleureuse. La bouffe on en parle pas, des plats très copieux, quantité généreuse. En plus, mon fils de 4 ans voulait un fricassée qui n'était pas disponible à midi. Ils lui ont offert 1 brika gratuite!! Merci beaucoup vous êtes les meilleurs !
Service excellent , ambiance conviviale, des plats savoureux & la cerise sur le gâteau était la crème brûlée aux pistaches & miel!! Je recommande vivement ce restaurant à tous ceux qui cherchent une belle expérience culinaire !
The moment the family walked in the door, we received a warm welcome by Sabri. He provided excellent service throughout our family meal. What a gentleman! The food is remarkable. We had the octopus salad which was exceptionally tasty. We also had the Ojja Merguez & the seafood Gargoulettes which were as remarkable. We finished with the creme brûle which was to die for. We had this amazing & pleasurable Chat with the owner. We felt like we were part of the restaurant family. I would give more than 5 stars if I could.
