Yoli never disappoints. Such creative cuisine and loved all the sharable plates. We had a vegetarian diner with us and that was no problem. Lots of great protein choices for the rest of us. Creative cocktails and good local wine options. Neighborhood gem. Tiffany guided us thru the menu.

Welcome to a true field-to-table restaurant offering a locally-grown and locally-sourced dining experience in Central Oregon. Terra Kitchen was established to nourish the soul (wellness), community (local sourcing), and planet (sustainability).

Terra Kitchen's menu is inspired by Pacific Northwest crops featuring fresh ingredients sourced from local farms, foraged from the region's land as well as SCP Redmond Hotel's very own rooftop garden.

I wish Terra could bring back a vegetarian-focused menu with options for adding meat/fish. As vegetarians we loved that Terra was there when we wanted a special night out with amazing, creative, delicious vegetarian food. I understand the business need for including more meat options for your diners, but it feels like a 180 for us. Really the only choices now for a vegetarian are pasta or pizza mains and a selection of shared small plates. Also, at 7 pm on Sat we didn't think we'd run into... "sorry we sold out of...." including pizza, which even further limited our choices.

Fabulous dining experience. Excellent food and personable service. Four of us were able to have conversation because it was not noisy among other diners.
