Mon May 23 20:18:42 -0700 2005 0 SimiMike 1 168824 I love Terra, but have never tried LaTorque. Terra is in a great stone building and the food, I had the halibut, was delicous. Mon May 23 22:30:47 -0700 2005 168803 0 Kate 1 168851 After three wonderful meals there, La Toque is my very favorite restaurant in the Napa Valley. If you can hang on until next week, I'll finally be having dinner at Terra for the first time this Sunday and can give a report then :-) Tue May 24 02:30:09 -0700 2005 168803 0 Rod Williams 2 168952 That would be great. I'm going in July, so I have time. Also, any other recommendations are appreciated. Tue May 24 17:55:25 -0700 2005 168851 0 SimiMike 3 169460 (ack!) the birthday boy was unwell on Sunday, so we had to cancel our Terra reservation! We'll definitely re-schedule sometime in June... Mon May 30 01:42:44 -0700 2005 168952 0 Rod Williams 4 169488 The husband and wife team that own Terra will be opening a restaurant in the new St. Regis in September. Hope they can keep up the high standards at Terra as well.

Have eaten at both a numer of times and never been disappointed at either one. If you're interested int eh "French Laundry" experience with the cost, La Toque is the place to go. Terra is fusion food that is done perfectly. Take your pick and have a wonderful dinner. Tue May 24 11:06:34 -0700 2005 168803 0 Monty 1 168909 Terra is my favorite restaurant in the valley. I've had subpar experiences at La Toque and can't recommend it. Tue May 24 14:18:08 -0700 2005 168803 0 JonesWineNo1 1 168914 I celebrated my birthday at Terra last year and loved it.
