DINING GUIDE
BY JARED VAN EPPS jvanepps@plwave.com a Terraza has been serving the community of Seadrift for 11 years with its Mexican style food. The restaurant, owned by Areli Alvarez and Jesus Huerta, has been part of the Seadrift community since its opening. La Terraza waitress Tamara Flores spoke on behalf of Alvarez and Huerta and talked about what draws the community to the restaurant. “We love the community, and they love us,” Flores said. “The food is absolutely amazing. The atmosphere; everybody that walks in feels it’s very personal.” Flores added customers are always greeted warmly and seated quickly after entering the restaurant. La Terraza has two specials during the week; one is a chicken breast with ranchero sauce, and one has queso dip, Flores said. “You can pretty much order anything off our menu, and you won’t be disappointed,” Flores said. Flores added what draws the community is their street tacos and the mochalete that comes in a flaming hot cast iron bowl. “Our Hacienda plate is another one that comes out on a hot skillet where it is sizzling the whole way down,” Flores said. La Terraza is also known for its full-time bar with specials Monday through Friday. “Our Margaritas are absolutely amazing. You can get different types of flavors. You can pretty much do whatever you want,” Flores said. Flores went over the different kinds of specialty drinks at La Terraza from Bloody Marys and Mimosas to Micheladas and Mojitos. La Terraza’s location is 720 W. Broadway Ave. in Seadrift. Hours of operation: Monday through Thursday: 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., Friday and Saturday: 6 a.m. to 9:30 p.m., and Sunday: 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information on the menus please go to www.laterrazagrill.com.
