| - hmmm... believe a lot has changed since my last visit to Terra Verde (new chef, open for lunch now), and im surprised to see the negative reviews on service because really that (along with a decently priced lunch) saved my review for this place... lets revisit shall we?
it was a late Saturday afternoon in GVR, and (1) i didnt want to food court it (2) didnt want to pay $14 for a quesadilla through room service (3) didnt want to walk through The District and (4) everything at Tides seemed really rich for how i was feeling... so, oila, Terra Verde it was...
greeted nicely by the hostess and took a seat at the bar... place was a ghost town, maybe 2-3 other covers besides me... the hostess let the waitress know i was sitting at the bar and i promptly ordered a pizza and a glass of Nipozzano Chianti... runner presented me with a hearty bread basket, EVOO & balsamic... food came out promptly and was tasty for what it was...
even though i was just a solo eater at the bar, i was given constant attention by the waitress and runner, my water glass was always full, and i had a nice, pleasing lunch of pizza and Chianti for around $25... what more could i ask for?
ok, the pizza couldve been better (hence why only 3 stars), but the Nipozzano was priced right for a restaurant, i had great service, and overall enjoyed my lunch... A-OK to me!
