  • Ohhh boy, where do we even begin? I rarely give 1 star reviews. But honestly, the service was terrible for such a fancy restaurant. I really wanted to like this place. Especially because a friend recommended it, and she organized this whole fine-dining experience for our friend who just turned 30. My husband and I were among the first guests to arrive. We had a party of 18 and our friends were slowly trickling in. Within 5 minutes of being seated, the waiter comes to our table and asks us to place our order. There were only 4 of us at this point. I informed him that most of our party hasn't arrived yet so we would rather wait. He seemed quite pushy so we ended up putting in our order. He then asked us how we were going to pay. I thought that was strange as we literally just sat down. But I said it would be most likely that all would pay by card separately. He seemed very displeased and said that that's not possible as it would take forever. I told him that most of our friends probably didn't bring cash for a fine-dining dinner. He argued saying that it would take 45 mins to settle all the bills if we were to pay separately. As I was about to repeat the fact that people probably didn't bring enough cash, he said that he'd have his manager talk to me. I've never been to a restaurant where it would take that long to process payment for a party under 20 guests, let alone a fine dining restaurant. I really can't see why this is a problem. But anyway... At terre rouge, you choose from a few menu set options at fixed price points. Our party got the $65 menu which included calamari and salmon tartare to start, black cod, pizza or steak frites for entrée, and a dessert trio to end things off. At $65 per person, you would think that each person would get their own appetizer, entrée and dessert. We thought wrong! The appetizer AND dessert were made to share between four people. Not to mention the salmon tartare was the size of a small tuna can - the kinds you'd get for your cat. I really hoped that things would get better after ordering, but unfortunately it just went downhill from there. My friend ordered the black cod, and after a few bites, she found a piece of aluminum foil in her food. We learned later that 2 other people from our party had aluminum foil in their food as well. For a $65 dinner plus 18% gratuity... I would say this was definitely not worth it. But hey, if you've got $65 to blow for a dinner garnished with aluminum foil, all power to ya! All in all, I think my friend put it quite nicely: "This experience was quite unique... Unique cause it will only happen once."
