Les expériences chez Terracotta sont majoritairement positives, avec une ambiance chaleureuse et conviviale et un service attentif et chaleureux qui est souvent salué. La cuisine tunisienne est décrite comme authentique, savoureuse et généreuse, avec des plats phares tels que la gargoulette d'agneau, l'ojja ou la salade de poulpe, et des briks et des desserts maison qui impressionnent. L'atmosphère, la décoration et la terrasse extérieure ajoutent au charme et donnent l'impression d'un voyage culinaire et familial. Le rapport qualité-prix est généralement apprécié, les portions peuvent être généreuses et satisfaisantes; parfois certains plats peuvent être épicés ou les portions jugées petites selon les repas, mais le service compense souvent. Le personnel est souvent décrit comme aimable, accueillant et passionné, capable d'expliquer les plats et d'offrir des recommandations, avec des mentions répétées du personnel et parfois du propriétaire qui prend le temps d'interagir. Des retours négatifs existent aussi, notamment une expérience où la soupe et certains plats ont été jugés décevants et où les portions semblaient insuffisantes ou mal préparées, mais ces avis restent minoritaires et ne brouillent pas la réputation générale. L'expérience Ramadan est signalée comme mémorable, et l'attention portée aux détails, à la musique tunisienne et à la propreté de l'endroit sont fréquemment soulignées. Dans l'ensemble, Terracotta est perçu comme une adresse incontournable à Montréal pour découvrir une cuisine tunisienne riche et bien exécutée, qui donne envie de revenir.
I thoroughly enjoyed the danouni, & enjoyed the Honey Lamb Gourginette. I have nothing else of note to say. What a unique privilege it is to enjoy Tunisian food in a city like Montreal.
Stopped in on our first evening in the city, the food was excellent & the servers helpful - I knew very little about tunisian food & was grateful for kind explanations of the menu & some cultural context!

Welcoming & warm space to enjoy wonderful Tunisian dishes with friends. Loved everything including the mixed salad, honey lamb & pistachio dessert. Will definitely be back!!
We had the most amazing experience at Terracotta the other night! The staff were so welcoming & passionate about sharing Tunisian cusisine & culture.
Our kids loved the experience as well, the indoor'banquet' seating was luxurious & perfect for little ones!
We got the lamb gargoulette, it was such flavourful dish! It is made in a Terracotta dish over 24 hours so you know it's going to be incredible!
The kids menu is perfect for little ones - great flavour, no spice, & a good variety of things to eat. As adults we even enjoying nibbling of the kid's plate.
Terracotta is a must try - an incredibly unique dining experience that will make you want to go back again & again!
Tunisia was once a French colony, so the cuisine is also deeply influenced by French cuisine. Lamb is a'meat with personality', either you like it or you hate it, there is no middle zone. The clay pot lamb is great, with plenty of ingredients & full of flavor. Tunisian shrimp brik is similar to Taiwan's oyster omelette, which is made with shrimps & soft-boiled eggs, then wrapped in pancakes, salty & delicious.
We stumbled upon Terracotta on a Monday evening, wandering around this fantastic neighborhood. I can't say enough good things about the restaurant. We were new to Tunisian cuisine & were excited for a new experience. It did not disappoint. The food was absolutely delicious - everything we ordered was so good with very big servings & the service was outstanding - our waitstaff were attentive, informative & friendly. I would highly recommend this spot. We will definitely be back.

Can't believe google didn't recommend this place. Tucked away on a side street, had a nice vibe (with indoor & outdoor seating options), friendly staff, & lovely food. The aesthetic might strike you as italian on first blush, but it is Tunisian. Food is phenomenal & filling!
My wife & I were out for a walk tonight & stopped in front of TerraCotta restaurant to inspect the menu. The co-owner Salim came out to greet us. He was warm & friendly & told us his restaurant featured Tunisian/Italian food. We decided right then to try it.
We began with fried Tunisian puff pastry with egg, mashed potatoes, parsley & tuna. First time we've ever eaten something like this & it was sublime.
For the mains, my wife had lamb on a bed of couscous & chick peas...Delicious.
I had lamb on a bed of cooked veggies on top of mashed potatoes. Just before being served the waiter poured a very small glass of honey on it, followed by a very small glass of pistachio pieces...again sublime!
Terracotta combines lovely service, the warmth of Salim, & new taste sensations.
I recently had the pleasure of dining at this incredible Tunisian restaurant, & I can honestly say it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warm hospitality & a cozy, authentic atmosphere that immediately made me feel like I was transported to Tunisia.
The menu is a beautiful celebration of Tunisian cuisine, with every dish bursting with rich flavors & unique spices. The brik was perfectly crispy, & the fell was a true masterpiece, full of tender lamb. The'gargoulette' was absolutely divine.
Thank you for this culinary journey!

One of the best restaurants in Montréal! The food is absolutely delicious, with authentic & rich tunisian flavors. The atmosphere is cozy & welcoming, & the service is outstanding, truly above & beyond. Every dish we tried was amazing, & the gargoulette was the best I've ever had. The owner was incredibly kind. Highly recommended, & we'll definitely be back! ❤?
My first time in a Tunisian restaurant, I loved it! I thought it had a lot of flavor but nothing strong, more like homemade food, made with patience & love. The prices are super, the whole experience. I recommend 10 out of 10
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!
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.
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.
