Had a very nice dinner; would definitely go back. Having read recent reviews before I went, here’s some clarification: it is cozy and warm (there were comments about no heat; that’s been resolved). The restaurant is comprised of 3-4 small rooms, each with 3-6 tables, so has a cozy feel. The food was very good and the wine selection is good. My wife liked her cosmo. The tiramisu was excellent. The service was friendly and thorough.

A beautiful place and very good food and extraordinary presentation . Like most restaurants in Santa Fe the menu is a bit uninspired , but the creative presentation and the atmosphere more than make up for this .

Service was a bit stiff and our waiter was clueless about the wines. If you’re going to have ‘Wine Bistro’ in the name of your restaurant it would be a good idea to give the staff enough information to answer basic questions.

An amazing dining experience! The intimate and cozy ambiance of this restaurant makes it the perfect spot for a relaxed and memorable evening. The squash blossoms were an absolute standout—crispy, flavorful, full of dairy softness and a must-try. The prosciutto salad was a favorite too. We loved the canard with lavender honey glaze and the savory beef tenderloin entree. Very affordable by the bottle pricing too. Highly recommend for anyone looking for exceptional food in a warm, welcoming setting. There is heart in their dishes and service - try the newly improved Terracotta!

So glad to discover Terracotta! I had a delicious meal, with pleasant service - I will be back, and happily recommend! I'm a "foodie" and regularly travel to Santa Fe. I have sampled most of the top restaurants, and have found several highly-touted restaurants lacking, either in food quality or service, and particularly in the ability to offer true gluten-free options. I'm happy to report that my recent dinner at Terracotta was a breath of fresh air - great, gluten-free food, good wine, and professional service. Can't wait to return!
