Editorial Review

Café Terigo is real local-grown wonderfulness, with a bakery. Don’t be fooled by Main Street addy—Terigo is low impact, high flavor. Family owned and operated by the Axtel family, with any number of generations in the kitchen on a given day, head chef/dad Ed creates homespun gourmet fare from Southern France and Northern Italy. Ambiance is red brick in tone and texture—small and purpose-built. Menu exceeds the restaurant’s stature, big and brimming with inventiveness. Lunch is light and fresh (appetizers like a bundle of baby onion rings with a berry ketchup), dinner keeps it hearty and exciting (porcini-dusted scallops on sweet corn risotto). A standout independent in Big Money restaurant land, and well deserving of your time.
