Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in East Boston

This was a lovely experience. I sat at the bar and enjoyed charcuterie, cheese, crispy chicken thighs, and of course delicious wine. Highly recommend!

A wonderful meal in a classy and comfortable environment. We will definitely be returning!

Our waiter, Emilio, was one of the best we’ve had. After decanting our wine, he primed each of our glasses by pouring a small amount of the wine from one glass to the next. His wine and meal recommendations were spot on. First time dining, we will be back.

My wife and I reserved the recommended two weeks ahead of time. I was not able to find the exact time we wanted (6 PM) but we were able to accommodate the 8:15. We showed up a little early. Everyone was great. Food was awesome. My wife had the pasta and scallops. I had the rare dish, wild hare. We shared the affogato. All of it excellent!

Terra is an absolute masterpiece of a restaurant! The Italian food here is nothing short of spectacular—every dish is crafted to perfection, and the flavors are unforgettable. The wine selection is equally impressive, with thoughtful pairings that elevate the dining experience to a whole new level. A special shoutout to our server, Vinicius, who made the evening truly extraordinary. His knowledge of the menu, attention to detail, and warm, professional demeanor added so much to our experience. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and we left feeling absolutely spoiled. If you’re looking for exceptional Italian cuisine, an incredible wine list, and top-tier service, Terra is the place to be. Highly recommend!
