Browsing Your Archive

As your restaurant list grows, the Archive and Cuisines tabs give you different ways to navigate and find what you're looking for.

Archive tab​

The Archive tab shows your full restaurant list in a table layout with search, filters, and sorting.

The search bar matches against restaurant name, cuisine, city, and notes. Type any part of a name or a cuisine type to narrow the list immediately.

Status filter​

Three buttons let you filter by status:

  • All — shows everything (visited, wishlist, closed)
  • Visited — only places you've been
  • Wishlist — only places you want to try

Sort options​

  • Recent — sorted by your most recent visit date (most recently visited first)
  • Rating — highest overall rating first
  • Visits — most-visited restaurants first
  • Name — alphabetical

What each row shows​

Each row in the archive displays the restaurant photo thumbnail, name, cuisine, city, your star rating, a favorite heart icon (if marked), and visit count. Tap any row to open the full detail page.

The archive shows 5 restaurants per page with pagination.

Cuisines tab​

The Cuisines tab groups your restaurants by cuisine type and sorts the groups by how many restaurants you have in each (most entries first). This gives you a quick read on what types of food dominate your dining history.

Each cuisine group shows a masonry grid of restaurant cards. Cards display the poster image, your rating overlaid at the bottom right, a Wishlist badge if the status is Wishlist, the restaurant name, and city.

Use the Cuisines tab when you're in the mood for a specific type of food and want to see all your options at once.

Home tab​

The Home tab features a monthly spotlight — a large hero card showing a highlighted restaurant — and a Gourmet Discoveries section with four recently added or highly rated restaurants. It's a starting point, not a complete view.

Restaurant detail page​

Each restaurant has a detail page showing:

  • Hero image with the restaurant name and location
  • Overall rating prominently displayed
  • Stats — total visit count and linked event count
  • Visit history — every visit in chronological order with dates, event links, ratings, and notes
  • An asymmetric info panel — cuisine category and any notes or tagline

From the detail page you can edit the restaurant, add a new visit, or delete the entry entirely.

Common questions​

I have a lot of Wishlist entries. How do I see only those? Use the Archive tab and tap the Wishlist filter button. Only want-to-try places will show.

How do I find a restaurant I visited years ago but can't remember the name of? Use the search bar with a cuisine type, city, or any word you remember from your notes. The search covers notes text, not just names.

The sort by "recent" doesn't seem to match what I expect. Why? Recent sorts by the date of your most recent visit record, not by when you added the restaurant to Terra. If you added a restaurant but never logged a visit, it won't appear near the top of the Recent sort.
