    We had probably the best seat - a cosy table in the window. It took a long time for someone to take our order for drinks, so by the time they returned we gave our full order. The food was quick to come out. Most of the food was good - the yellowtail carpaccio, beef tartare, steak and pasta. The halibut main was dry and overcooked. When our desserts were served we were told we had 10 minutes left before a new table arrived at 9pm so we were rushed out the door, with a £400 bill for four people (entree, main, dessert, 1 bottle of wine). We had no other warning of the restricted time slot - not at the time of booking, on entering the restaurant, or at any other earlier point in the meal. Our table was cosy but the rest of the restaurant lacked ambience and I'd describe the decor as sterile. On the way to the bathroom the bar was being used to stack dirty dishes which gave a poor impression. I booked this restaurant for the convenient location and based on good reviews but it was disappointing.

    Came here for dinner and had a good meal - service was a little scattered and didn't get the warmest or most helpful interaction from the host but overall it was a good meal. The miso-glazed halibut was delicious and the pumpkin ravioli was good but would probably order something else next time. Overall a little pricey for the food/experience but the restaurant itself was lovely.

    The food was excellent, and the service was very good. The only downside was a noisy table next to us. Despite that minor issue, it was a lovely dinner overall.

    The whole experience felt very average. The food was not great, not bad. Not worth returning.

    Terra Moderna is a place that not only offers an exceptional menu but also an interesting and delicious culinary experience. The service was above average, and the small yet intimate setting encourages connection and familiarity.
