Terra Nova

If you’re looking for a venue that feels like a trip to Napa Valley without leaving South Jersey, Terra Nova in Sewell is your destination. Since opening its doors in 2006, this family-owned and operated establishment by the Cammaratas has been a cornerstone of Washington Township’s dining scene. It’s a place where “New World” fusion meets rustic elegance, all housed in a sprawling farmhouse-style building featuring exposed timber, stone, and a warm, contemporary ambiance.

Features & Ambiance

A Culinary World Tour: Terra Nova’s menu is an adventurous fusion of American, Asian, and Mediterranean influences. Whether you’re craving high-quality sushi and sashimi (which accounts for a significant portion of their local fame), a fresh selection from the Raw Bar, or oak-fired steaks and seafood, the kitchen delivers. Standouts often include their “Bang Bang” shrimp, creative flatbreads, and impeccably grilled filet mignon.

The Wine and Martini Scene: For the beverage enthusiast, the centerpiece is the curving, 40-seat Brazilian granite bar. Terra Nova takes its liquid assets seriously, boasting an extensive wine list with over 200 varieties by the bottle and dozens available by the glass or flight. Their martini and cocktail menu is equally impressive, featuring seasonal concoctions like the Fig and Thyme Fizz.

Spaces for Every Mood: The restaurant offers a versatile layout. You can enjoy a high-energy evening at the bar, an intimate meal at the Chef’s Table, or host a celebration in one of their three private rooms (the Sonoma, Napa, and Monterey rooms). For those who enjoy al fresco dining, they offer pet-friendly outdoor seating where you can soak in the local atmosphere.
