with its roofs glazed to cover over all the terraces

Explanation:
if you don't have a photo of the building I think a literal translation is safest; it sort of makes sense, they had terraces possibly at the front and back of the first floor and they have covered them over so that people can dine there in comfort with a nice view, using rooflights to give an open-air feeling
