Terzo has been serving Mediterranean-inspired coastal cuisine in Cow Hollow since 2006. Executive Chef Miguel Tzab, who started as a line cook at Rose's Cafe across the street, has run the kitchen since 2018, sourcing from local farms and ranches and changing the menu daily to track the season.
The wine list is the other half of the story — an eclectic, globally drawn selection curated by owner Ava Nicolai, meant to run alongside the food rather than sit beside it. The room backs that up: a warm, modern space with long communal tables and bottles stacked within reach on all sides, built as much for a big group as for two people on a date.
Terzo and Rose's Cafe share ownership, with Nicolai — who worked her way up from hostess to general manager of both restaurants before taking ownership — running them as a pair in the neighborhood.
