This is a wonderful restaurant, with excellent service, and great chef/owner. Michael also makes his own wine which is lovely, as well as an extensive wine list largely from Italy, but also WA and OR. Very much recommend.

Our hostess/server was lovely! We had a really nice chat with her. Food was exceptional. I love when a restaurant has a Sancerre wine by the glass-it's very rare. Get the ravioli in the cream sauce (I believe it has sausage in it).

We had a fantastic dinner last night. There were four of us, each of us ordered a different entre, and they were all delicious. The wine selection is also very nice. Our server was well informed, helpful and overall a delight to interact with.

I've been there several times and enjoyed myself each time. It was a little surprised at the food I ordered, I was done and 15 minutes tops, and still hungry. I've never left there still hungry, but yesterday I was.. I didn't mind waiting for my table which I had reservations for. But I was very disappointed that you took Argyle Brut sparkling wine off your menu. Supporting local businesses is very important to me and to have that removed with more expensive sparkling wines was a bit disappointing.

It was a little hard to find this restaurant. Don't give up. It's a walk along the waterfront. The food isn't trendy. It's a little rustic. It is good. It is very good. The pasta was simple but perfectly seasoned. It was obviously fresh and perfectly prepared. Service was friendly and professional. The entire experience was calming and, in a way, comforting. It was the opposite of most restaurant experiences these days. Portions were generous. Now I need to find excuses to head down to Portland so I can go back.

I went to Il Terrazzo last weekend for the first time and had an amazing experience! We did the chef’s special and it was exquisite. Michael is so talented and generous. Every plate we had was better than the last. It’s a nice space with beautiful water views. I will be recommending to everyone!

You took in two very weary and threadbare travelers on the 23rd, late, and without reservations. Found a corner for us and prepared a marvelous meal.  It was the only calm and peace we had in a while.  Thank you all for being kind and beautiful souls to us.

I recently visited Il Terrazzo after several attempts of making it here and it did not disappoint. Erin is so warm, welcoming, sweet and funny. She made our groups' first experience so memorable and not to mention, delicious! Everything from the wine, to the bruschetta, to the bread, to the food and dessert was delicious and the Erin is just so lovely! Thank you, Erin, for a fantastic evening! We will be back for sure. The Tiramisu is decadent and perfect! And I recommend the special wine.Vegetarian options: There is quite a variety of vegetarian and vegan options on the menu, which is wonderful!

The server ignored us the majority of the time. It took almost an hour to beg for a glass of wine. The pasta sauce tasted like it came from a jar (cheap one). I would not recommend this restaurant!

I say this knowing how much Italian food I've had in my life and having been to Italy several times: this was the best Italian food I've ever had. I never leave reviews but this was so good that I had to say something. The service was perfect and everything I ate was absolutely fabulous. The bread, oil and balsamic vinegar was incredible, my tomato soup was piping hot, creamy and delicious, and I had the daily special- spicy sausage ragu in a bread bowl which was so flavorful and rich. I cannot recommend this place enough. To top it all off, my meal was relatively inexpensive for the superior quality and generous portion size. Try this place out!

A bit expensive, as expected. Wasn't crowded at 5pm. Excellent waiter: young man, probably early 20s, knew the wines and the food in detail. Food was very good. I would recommend it to anyone.
