Chef-owner Hiro Sone has been impressing diners since 1988 with a flavorful blend of French, Asian and northern California cuisine, served in an intimate setting. Just one block off the main drag on Railroad Avenue, Terra occupies a charming old stone building, rustically finished with vintage red-tiled floors, exposed stone walls, woodbeamed ceilings and country floral arrangements. Seasonal signature dishes include red wine-braised veal cheeks, lobster tortellini and stone fruit tarte tatin.
