My favorite Mexican place in Columbia. Their seafood menu is outstanding and love their Ceviche. They have a lot more fresh flavours than other places.

Such and awesome experience dining at La Terraza tonight! Delicious food and amazing service. So nice to see the place at capacity. Give them a try if you haven't recently. Taste, flavor and quality authentic Mexican food! We will be back.

Great place to eat! I had the Enchiladas Al Carbon (tortillas rolled with juicy steak topped with cheese sauce) and My fiancé had Quesadilla La Terraza (with steak). Both of our meals were really good! The cheese sauce was most certainly on point and the steak was in fact juicy! The chips and salsa were really good as well (little bit of heat). We will be back! 8/10!

There are a variety of options for every interest. Skinny margaritas are delicious and not too sweet. Enchiladas were excellent with the perfect portion of protein. I recommend added fajita on the side if you want more veggies.

I'm from San Diego and consider my Mexican food palate "refined". We ordered for delivery and the food exceeded our expectations. Their menu is large and varied. Several different salsas and they provided them with chips. Nice touch. Will return!

Disappointing. I visited this place on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. My friend and I started with chips, queso, and guacamole. The cheese dip was lukewarm and had a skin on it. I couldn't tell if the chips were made in house. I love guacamole and I could not eat this. There was so much chopped cilantro that I gagged when I took my first bite. I've eaten plenty of guacamole, with and without cilantro, and this was just awful. My friend ordered nachos and the serving was enough to feed 3 people. The cheese was congealed and the chips were soggy. My food, too, appeared to have been sitting for awhile. I had a combination with a cheese enchilada, rice, beans, and a tamale. The enchilada was so greasy and the tamale was dry and flavorless. I won't be returning.

Our favorite Mexican restaurant in Columbia. We're from CA, not sure what was going to happen food-wise moving to the Midwest, especially Mexican food. This place is delicious, and their street tacos are my go-to--they're as good as you'll get in the middle of the country!

We ordered carry out food. Placing the order over the phone was a bit tricky. There was a bad connection and they had a hard time understanding us. Once we placed the order they said it would be ready in about 20 minutes. We went to pick it up and there were several people also in the parking lot to pick up our food. They came to the car quickly with our ticket to pay and brought the food with it. The food was alright. It wasn't very warm by the time we made it back to eat it and the crunchy tacos were soggy at the point. I am sure it is better when you can eat it right off the grille.
There are two decent Tex-Mex restaurants and this is the best one for lunch. The lunch specials are a bargain and the servings are good-sized for the price. The best thing is their extra spicy hot sauce. Ask for it as the regular salsa given out with the chips is very mild.

Last week we ordered take out from the menu. It was delicious. La Terraza is a goto for Mexican food near our home. Their remodel is beautiful AND during the remodel, they added a Take Out widow. This was our first takeout-- well packaged (we ordered some saucy items) & true to the menu. The menu has a wide selection with one exception -- tamales! Maybe I missed them -- reading menus on-line is a challenge I can't aways overcome.

Salsa, cheese dip and guac excellent. Fast service very good food. Don't think they will let you down.

I've been going here for years, I love this place. The staff has always treated us well and is very friendly and accommodating. I love that they are handicap accessible, because my mother is confined to a wheelchair and getting around in this restaurant is super easy. Their Enchilada Michocan is a savory delicious treat, the steak strips on top of it are always tender and have a great flavor. I've tried other dishes from their menu, and they have never disappointed in deliciousness.

Great food, will be returning in the future! I had the steak enchiladas that are covered in cheese sauce and they were amazing. The salsa is spicier than our group was used to but I thought it was really good. The only draw back was the kids hamburger came wrapped in foil and the bun was pretty wet because of it so the child that was with us didn't eat it. Will be returning in the future to try their margaritas!
