Great choice!
Stopped in this small restaurant because of the Google algorithm. It was the third recommended. The menu looked great, and upon arrival to look over the menu posted outside, noticed the numerous awards and ratings. I will tell you, they are well deserved! We arrived a few minutes after noon, to only one table sat in our section of the restaurant. That did not last long, as obvious repeat customers, as well as local bankers streamed in, with great enthusiasm. We ordered the Ravioli and the Gorgonzola Chicken. Both were great! The Ravioli has a fresh, light and correctly seasoned tomato sauce. The Chicken with Gorgonzola had numerous scallops of tender chicken with a perfectly balanced amount of the powerful cheese. The lightly dressed greens was a great addition. I would call for a reservation if you plan to dine here!

Great evening
Local apparently modest but with excellent service and delicious dishes. Quality raw materials and absolutely adequate prices, especially considering you are in Monte Carlo. Highly recommended.

The Italian food was fairly average — nothing special, but considering the location, the prices are understandable.
Unfortunately, we were treated badly by the head waiter while trying to get a table, and he continued to behave rudely for the rest of the night. The other waiters were absolutely fine — the issue was only with the head waiter. If the restaurant is busy, it would be better to simply say there’s no availability rather than keeping guests waiting.
The restaurant has two dining rooms, and the one with the open kitchen was extremely hot

Total disappointment
A tease. Ridiculous tasting menu with a plate of pasta that was not even enough for a child who was missing one of the first. I asked for tuna and I got the bream. Place without tablecloth and poor decor. It used to be different, Plus respectful to customers.

A great little restaurant- a relatively short menu but a clear emphasis on quality of ingredients and exacting preparation. Service was friendly but a little bit chaotic at times, an additional waiter might have taken the pressure off them ( to our benefit and theirs!). The wine list made us smile: red or white? But the red was drinkable and by Monaco standards inexpensive. I think if you are looking for somewhere authentic with decent food, highly recommended.

Great restaurant and staff
My friend and I stopped in for apps and drinks while walking around Monaco and enjoyed it. It's just far enough away from the Casino that the prices are lower and the food is great. I will also add that the servers are very nice and helpful - well worth a stop in for dinner or just drinks!

Here you are in Naples, with excellent cuisine and friendly, smiling and competent staff. Correct prices (we are 2 minutes from the Casino). It's the third time I dine here and I can only recommend this little Neapolitan pearl. I'm definitely going back. That's good!

I had dinner on the terrace with my family! We went to Monte Carlo for a walk and searching online we found this delicious restaurant! A bit of Italy in France! We had a great meal. Excellent pasta as hardly happens abroad. The staff all kind and friendly! The really top Parmesan! I recommend it! If you pass by there try it!!!

Italian restaurant in Monaco, just a short walk from the casinó. The restaurant is nice overall, the food is good and the service is fast, even though it is a little small so it can get full pretty easily. There could be Plus options on the menu, as it feels a little limited, especially if you have dietary restrictions. And the Prix is a little higher then other similar Italian restaurants around Monaco.

The food was delicious and the proportions were perfect. We started with a great salad and then got two pastas both of which were fantastic. The staff were very polite and even though we didn't have a reservation they found us a table to sit. So you must make a reservation if you choose Il Terrazzino to eat. We also got the caramel Panna cotta and it was really great. I totally recommend this restaurant and I will 100% come back when I visit monte carlo again!!!

A nice place with good price. I did not expect to have a good lunch with fair Prix in Monaco. We order the pasta with seafood and fish of the day (sea bream), with mixed veggies as a side. Both main dishes were quite good - the pasta quite al dente and fish fresh, succulent, and aromatic.

Burrata cheese salad is good. Seafood pasta is okay. Pasta is freshly handmade but there were sands in the clams. To be honest, it’s not bad but it was a big let down to ‘eat’ the sands. It’s not one but three clams……hence the 3 stars rating

Can’t say I had the best experience. Although the menu was relatively vast, I elected to go ahead with a the day special, a beef lasagna. However the lasagna was stone cold in the middle. You think they would have realised the dish was cold when the cheese on top didn’t melt? Although the issue was fixed by a quick zap in the microwave, at the his point my experience and expectations had disappeared.

The best hidden secret in Monaco. This is where Alain Ducasse, probably the best chef in the world, goes to eat Italian in Monaco. Here it’s not about which Ferrari is parked outside, the Star is the food. What an experience, you start with the fresh mixed appetiser full of southern Italian flavours with olive oil you have never tasted before. Then the pasta are probably the best I’ve ever had in a restaurant; the ravioli were the top for me, perfectly balanced with an amazing tomato sauce but the gnocchi with Gorgonzola were out of this world as well. And it’s with simple dishes you can really test the quality of a restaurant. Next the meatballs, again simple in appearance but it was perfection. Moist, full of flavours, with little hidden pieces of melted mozzarella inside. A must have!! The dish of the day were scalopine of veal stuffed with mozzarella and Parma ham... this was the coup de grace, so much flavour, so well cooked... nothing was left. Had to try the deserts. The cannoli and panna cotta were the perfect end to a perfect Italian experience. Not to miss!!

We had a late lunch here and were able to get a table with no problem. The place is small so I imagine you would need reservations at peak time. The ravioli was some of the best ravioli I've ever had. The tomato-based sauce was very flavorful and the pasta was fresh and cooked perfectly. My lunch guests were also fans of their gambas (shrimp) entree, and seafood pasta. After taking our order, the server pushed an appetizer on us and we agreed because, why not, we are on vacation. We could have done without it. If you are very hungry, or with a lot of people the it would be worth it but it was only 3 of us and the appetizer brought out a melted cheese and ham dish, bruschetta, Plus bread, and a caprese salad. It was good but nothing mind blowing.
