    Always a feel good experience dining at Terrain Westport! And food has always been a winning choice. This time we had pork tenderloin which was excellent. The chicken pot pie was so yummy just missing a solid portion of chicken. Looked so pretty and tasted great though, for sure. Service is always with a smile and helpful. Non alcoholic drinks were creative and tasty too!

    From the moment we sat down Ken our waiter was full of life and energy. He didn't skip a beat. He was attentive and answered all our questions. EVERYTHING about him was awesome. My food was cold and I did mention it politely and he offered for my dish to be done over but i politely refused. I just wanted to let him know that i understood that the kitchen was probably swamped with orders, (hey stuff happens and I understand)....anyway he was very apologetic and the afternoon continued with a great dance party. I will say one thing, the volume of the music could def be turned down a decibel or two. Yes, we are there to dance, but when you have to scream at your friends during lunch just so they can hear you is a bit annoying. My throat hurt at the end of the afternoon. I am planning to come back and I hope the music is a bit better for the ears.

    First time, long time for brunch here. Usually just come for dinner. Brunch was off the charts excellent. Had a variety of different items, all really good. The banana Nutella pancakes were terrific.... Will definitely have again. Omlette was great as well. Also liked that some of the basic menu was available for those that don't like brunch food.

    Excellent dinner for Valentine’s Day with my 91 year old father. The tables were VERY close together and the tipsy table next to us got really loud, which is why I gave ambience 4 stars- but I love this restaurant and will always go back. And they gave the ladies a rose on the way willing is always lovely touch. Well done Piccolo’s!
