editorial profile:
How often have you found yourself yearning for blueberry pancakes at 11 a.m., only to discover that your favorite neighborhood café ended its breakfast menu at 10:30 a.m.? Instead of grouchily ordering a sandwich (when you really want those darned pancakes), consider visiting The Terrace, a cheery restaurant tucked back in the Town & Country Village shopping center. This kitchen clearly understands that folks want what they can’t have, and has kindly decided to offer breakfast and lunch—all day. So for those of you who want jambalaya at 8 a.m. or biscuits and gravy at 2:30 p.m., The Terrace is there to serve it up, with a friendly smile. This family-owned establishment has a very ambitious menu, considering it’s offering two meals simultaneously. Breakfast fare includes omelettes and frittatas (don’t miss the gorgeous sausage and vegetable frittata), griddled items like pancakes (yes, they have blueberry pancakes) and French toast, as well as various morning-ish dishes such as steak and eggs and oatmeal. Sunday brunch features a stellar Eggs Benedict and very kid-friendly caramelized banana pancakes. The lengthy lunch menu has a nice selection of salads (of special note is the “Sac Valley baby greens” salad, tossed in a bacon-sage dressing and sprinkled with goat cheese, green apple slices, dried cranberries) and “hand-held” items such as the briskly selling barbecue pulled pork sandwich and a hefty salmon BLT. Swankier choices include a linguine with tiger prawns and an herb-marinated chicken breast, pan-roasted with Havarti cheese. If you’re a meatloaf lover, try The Terrace’s yummy version, plopped in a brightly flavored pool of tomato sauce and accompanied by creamy mashed potatoes—and, yes, you can have it for breakfast. — Kira O'Donnell

" In the span of one week, I dined at The Terrace two times for lunch. On both occasions, the atmosphere was perfect, and the food was equally impressive. I struggled with a decision on the second visit and was recommended to try the burger, having said it's "the best in Sacramento". I took the recommendation and had to agree that it was one of the better burgers I've had in a while. I look forward to trying their champagne brunch on Sunday, and await their state of the art cooling deck in the summertime. It's a great addition to the Town & Country Village! "

" I plan to become a "regular!" After much anticipation, this restaurant was well worth the wait. The atmosphere is upscale, yet comfortable. The cuisine is absolutely fantastic and the taste is just as exquisite as the photos. If you feel like an upscale version of home cooked comfort food or trying something new and fresh and light, you will find it on this menu. Portion size is perfect! Prices are great. The owners are delightful....you can't go wrong with "The Terrace!" "
