Terra Plata - Seattle (WA)

4 /5 Lia G: really like service! food was good and fun cocktails. good for big groups, upstairs cool rooftop with decent views

4 /5 Ron Sankey: Overall this was a good experience. Went here with a large group from work and I didnt set it up, so I dont know what they called it.. but it was an experience where we pretty much had every plate. It was pretty darn good. No real complaints. Service was good. They werent super attentive though, showing up eventually to refresh drinks, etc. It was plenty of food for the group. I do believe there was a minimum headcount required, and they charged us for that even though we had less people show.

4 /5 James: This place has a very nice outdoor patio which really hits during summer - although the seats can be a bit cramped, the atmosphere is great Our group ordered a ton of different appetizers, before having three paellas to share Out of the seven appetizers we had, my favorite had to be the focaccia. it was incredibly soft, fluffy, and I could eat it fully on its own without any dipping sauce needed. I also enjoyed the albacore crudo. The rest I was kind of mixed on. The baguette was far too chewy for me, and the truffled potato chips were begging for salt that just wasnt there. The peppers had the opposite problem, where by themselves they were good, but the sauce didnt really taste like anything. For our mains, we ordered two mixto paellas - coming with chicken, chorizo, shrimp, clams, mussels, and rice, and a vegetarian paella These paellas were massive. They were $55 each, but I think one could easily feed 3 different people. There was so much rice, meat, and vegetables involved They also lived up to it taste-wise - as these paellas were easily the best part of the overall meal. Even excluding the meat, the combination of the saffron rice and braised sofrita was delectable. The amount of flavor being held by each grain coated by the sauce is what really makes this dish special. The meats being good made it even better. I loved the mussels, clams, and sausage. The shrimp was a bit overcooked but definitely high quality - but my favorite was the chicken. The skin was incredibly crispy, and the inside was just as good. The amount of chicken provided in the mixto paella was also impressive The vegetables in the vegetarian paella also did their part; tasting both fresh and filling Along with a drink, the price ended up being roughly $60 per person. The appetizers are way overpriced in my opinion - some being over $20 for something thats not a lot. While the paellas are more expensive, theyre also just so much bigger One odd thing: the server felt very short with us, like they werent making an effort to provide good service. I wonder if the 20% automatic gratuity has anything to do with this - because they feel like they dont need to be polite since theres no additional tip coming anyway Overall, its a nice, albeit expensive place, but if you were to come here, I would order one paella for every 4-5 people and thats about it. 8/10

4 /5 Orest Martynets: I tried paella and found it to be satisfactory. I did not enjoy the pickled onion in the dish. The other components were fine.

4 /5 An G: We ordered French toast, croque madame and a couple of coffees. Food was delicious, rich in flavor with good portions. The coffee was good too, with non-dairy milk available. Would definitely recommend as a great brunch place for adults. If you have kids (maybe aged 10 and below) with you, be prepared to sit at the back of the restaurant, near the restrooms. Place was pretty empty when we arrived, 2 families with kids were directed to the back while adult only groups seems to be seated away from them or quite randomly (but still away from the kids).
