Attentive and warm service, delicious selection of interesting cocktails and wines by the glass. Highly recommend the gnocchi and scallop entrees. And the chocolate martini was a Christmas delight. Cafe Terracotta never disappoints, it’s such a plus to have a wonderfully consistent upscale restaurant in downtown Littleton.

A fabulous experience in every way! My husband and I (big foodies) went the night after Christmas for dinner with my in-laws and the food and service were excellent. We ordered the crispy rice with spicy tuna, french onion soup and two salads to start which were all delicious. Same for our entrees: the black cod, 16oz ribeye, pork chop and 4 oz sirloin with the truffle gnocchi, brussel sprouts and carrots on the side. Our server and the chef were very accommodating to my MIL's strict restrictions / modifications. If you can request a server, ask for Jonathan. Since pre-covid, service at restaurants has been fairly disappointing, but not here. Jonathan was by far the best server we've had anywhere in a very long time. Looking forward to returning on our next trip to see our parents.

Great being able to bypass lines to enter at your reservation time on concert days. Staff was super friendly, food was served quickly and was very good. Great place to gear up before the concert, have a filling meal and - use the very underutilized restrooms before the show. Great time will try to do this before every show - we ate on the porch and saw a herd of deer along the ridge too.
