The service was horrible. The server was extremely rude as she did not smile and introduce/explain anything for the menu or food. When we just finished the dessert, she put the check on the table without a single word, and she did not provide us the flower and champagne which every table is supposed to get (she provide it to the table next to us).
Manager David is great, he is very polite and apologized for the server. But still our night is ruined.
This is my first time but also last time. Food is so expensive and the experience is so bad!

Of course price is high on the beach, but amazing location and spectacular food. Fish tacos for about $35 were awesome 😎

Once inside this location is hard to beat anywhere! Staff attentive, food high quality and live music is a great welcomer after dinner! Never feel in a rush to leave. Only complaint - cost $20.00 to valet for dinner ( if validated and that is fine) If you stay over 3 hours --cuz its worth it) its $40.00. If no validation? its 64 dollars. Most I've ever paid to park at at a quality restaurant. Feel bad for the Terrazza - they don't deserve this !!!!!

We really enjoyed the Spanish-inspired dishes, especially the octopus — cooked exactly the way it should be, tender, balanced, and confident. The Iberian ham was excellent, full of flavor, and paired beautifully with a good Tempranillo. Simple choices done properly. That’s what makes the difference.
What truly elevated the experience, though, was the service. Guillermo from Barcelona was outstanding — professional, sincere, and genuinely warm in a very natural way. Attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without showing off. You feel taken care of, not managed.
A relaxed, elegant place with honest food and real hospitality. We’ll be back.

An absolute treat of a find. The scallop and farrow dish was to die for, and my fiancé loved his grilled dorade. We told our waiter Erik that we were on a free trip I won and he brought us a free dessert. Such an amazing experience!

One of the most disappointing meals I’ve had to-date. Sloppy & over-salted food, under cooked filet, amateur cocktails, very slow service. Save your money and skip this for dinner.

Just quiet place with great view. Service is good but food is awful 😐
Terrazza is a restaurant of magnificent excellence that elevates the Mediterranean dining experience to a truly memorable level. From the very first moment, the impeccable quality of its menus stands out: fresh ingredients, balanced combinations, and a culinary concept that respects tradition but with a creative touch that surprises in every dish.
The presentation is simply beautiful, designed with good taste and attention to detail, transforming each course into a visual masterpiece that anticipates the wonderful flavors to come. Each recipe is a delight that combines harmony, texture, and personality, awakening the palate with authentic and profound notes.
I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the Chef and his entire kitchen team, whose talent, dedication, and commitment are clearly reflected in each of their creations. The culinary art they cultivate not only satisfies but also inspires and leaves a lasting impression on all the diners who frequent this wonderful restaurant.
Terrazza is, in short, a place that honors Mediterranean cuisine with excellence, passion, and an unwavering desire to provide the best possible dining experience.

This is my favorite beach/ sunset view restaurant in Santa Monica. It used to be Loews Hotel but they closed down and reopened as Regent or whatever. But Terrazza is inside Casa Del Mar and everything on the menu is always delicious. My fave is the Caesar salad w salmon. I love the crispy skin. The service is on point and the staff is like family at this point. Jorge is my favorite person. 😍
