   I consider myself a pretty hard-core "foodie", and Terra Plata is my favorite restaurant for great food, great service, and great vibes in Seattle. Tonight we had a group of 13 for dinner before a show at the Paramount Theater. Our server was attentive and did a perfect job of pacing tje food to get us out the door at the preferred time. I let him choose our courses, and he wisely asked questions around the table about preferences and restrictions before sending out an amazing selection. The food was stellar, as is the norm for Terra Plata. After we finished, I had THREE of my guests come to me to tell me that it was one of the best meals they had ever eaten. Terra Plata really is that good! The Brussels sprouts are a personal favorite and everyone agreed that they were amazing. But there wasn't a single dish that was less than a 5/5 experience. Other highlights were the confit lamb riblets, beef cheek gnocchi, and blistered shishito peppers. If you go to Terra Plata as a group, try ordering family-style so you can taste more options.

   The food was incredible, everything tasted amazing and the specific sourcing was really evident. The rooftop seating is great, it was not cold at all, and the service was excellent.

   I’ve been here twice now and the staff are attentive. Unfortunately, got two mouthfuls of sand because the mussels weren’t properly cleaned. Paid $55 on the paella and won’t be returning.

   It was good. Not earth shattering though. Not very busy for brunch.

   Went in to celebrate a birthday, they had a nice little touch of adding a birthday note on the menu and free dessert. Everything was going well until the ordering and food. Our order was taken wrong or mixed up with another table so half our table waited like 40 minutes after the first half got their food. After that, they brought out an order wrong TWICE that made one person wait even longer. We came here because the food looked good but it was hard to enjoy the food when it was all coming out at EXTREMELY different times and some of friends couldn’t really enjoy it. Couldn’t tell if it was a server issue or just an off night but not sure if we would be back to celebrate another birthday.

   Average quality and extremely overpriced. Be prepared to pay close to $30 (after tip and tax) for an average Old Fashion. Wines prices are not better. Tables are shared, so expect to be seated in a long table with two different parties at your sides (no privacy, even with a reservation). Also, you could be seated 10 feet away from the entry door, so bring a good sweater. As food goes, the cheese table was decent, but the charcuterie board was poor at best (of the 10 items on the board, three were actually meats, the other seven were cheap mustards, berries, olives, etc.). I think quality has declined a lot since my previous visit to the place. Throw in horrible parking, limited (I think three) bathroom stalls for more than a hundred patrons, and a very noisy ambiance, and you are there. The waiting crew was great, though. Skip it.

   Worst table, next to kitchen (should not be available to customers, unless last resort), drinks took 15 minutes to arrive, after(!) first course/food arrived; very bad. They also got the order wrong (waiter did not write anything down, forgot a couple things).

    EXCEPTIONAL Paella this evening. The fresh mussels, clams, shrimp, chorizo sausage, chicken, veggies, and authentic Spanish crispy rice were the best ever!! Our server and service were perfect also. Terra Plata's attention to allergies and customer satisfaction are always consistent and greatly appreciated. Beautiful setting to enjoy too.
