After a strong turn out for 1550 Hyde last month, we have a small group this time for Terzo during the holiday month. We also dine on the Third Friday for the first time for DASF, appropriate since Terzo means "Third" in Italian! We have the usual DASFers (the Klinkes, the Carters and the Phans). We were sat in the small back room right next to their wine cellar (should have brought my wine key with me). It is a nice, cozy and tastefully decorated room. The Pan-Mediteranian menu consists of mostly small plates for sharing, highlighting seasonal ingredients.
Ratings:
Overall value - 85 (good food at a decent price)
Atmosphere - 88 (love the cozy room and a roommie table)
Food - 85 (solid food overall but nothing stands out or memorable. The egg bruchetta was excellent but the Roasted Niman Ranch Beef with Chimichurri was bland and their version of the "calzone" was pretty ordinary too).
Service - 85 (The waiter did a decent job with moving from lighter fares to heavier dishes but they did not change our plates once, even though we were tasting many different dishes with varying flavors).
Terzo should do well in Cow Hollow. It is a cozy neighborhood restaurant with good food and reasonable prices.
