seafood salad on a shell topped with ceps (see below) and truffles
Cep is a Catalan mushroom. You can leave it as is or use one of the following:
wild mushrooms
Catalan mushrooms
porcini mushrooms
Or to keep the Catalan with a explanation, you can write "cep mushrooms".
As for "amanida de cloves al perfum marí", I'm guessing (as Berni wrote) that it's "seafood salad on a shell" but I think you should ask the client for a description of the dish, specifically what "cloves" refers to, as it could be a shell seafood like clams, mussels... or it could describe whatever this "marine-inspired" salad is served on. It's all a bit vague. Good luck!

I'm not sure about "terrassi". Could this be "terrasse/terrace"... therefore meaning "on a bed of"?? Either way, it's best to get a description of the dish from the client. Let us know. I'm curious! :-)

seafood salad served on sea shells with a mushroom topping
I think this is the kind of thing described. Though these restaurants in English tend to use ridiculous terms like "Seafood fantasy surprise with mushroom haze" or something else daft. "Death to El Nouveau Cuisine", say I :-)
