Terra nova

Terra nova: "Farm-to-table has become so commonplace in any self-respecting food town that any restaurant not getting on board the locavore train is more the exception than the rule. Yet it’s easy to forget that there aren’t a ton of farm-to-table options outside of San Diego proper.

Surprisingly, La Mesa is one of those communities that, until recently, didn’t have one. But now that Hillcrest stalwart Terra Restaurant has changed neighborhoods after 13 years in the same spot, the revamped Terra American Bistro is bringing delicious and farm-fresh dishes to the land east of 70th Street."
