L'abbondanza Lucana In Matera

A small restaurant with a refined, elegant atmosphere, meticulously crafted down to the smallest details. I dined at this restaurant on a weekend in Matera on the recommendation of the B&B owner, and I must say it was an excellent experience. The same care and refinement in the dishes was also reflected in the attentive and friendly service. In short, a TOP restaurant!!! Congratulations!

The food is good, but the price is ridiculous, especially when you compare the quality of the dishes with other restaurants in the area.

Thank you for a wonderful evening. Beautiful ambiance, exquisite cuisine. Excellent advice and heartfelt service that truly delighted us. The house red wine, Aglianico from Eleano, is a special bottling exclusively for the restaurant. It's excellent and highly recommended.

We went for lunch on Thursday at the recommendation of a kind local. A beautiful restaurant with moderate prices and truly extraordinary dishes. The owner, Francesco, loves his job and does it with skill and expertise. We also had the pleasure of meeting Lucanian comedian Dino Paradiso, who was also there for lunch. He was very friendly and engaging with his fascinating stories and tales about the Sassi of Matera. Thank you so much, Francesco, for your hospitality!

Gorgeous place. Refined and excellent food. Fast service and friendly, courteous staff. Friendly chef.

Beautiful, modern restaurant...not in the Sassi, but still in the heart of beautiful Matera...with delicious, interesting dishes that combine tradition and innovation. Very reasonable prices for the quality of the offerings. Excellent, reasonably priced wine list. Recommended.

Exceptional experience, let's talk about the welcome, there is a gentleman the manager who is of a kindness and a unique professionalism. The location, an exceptional place, attention to the smallest details, from the dining room to the bathrooms, not to mention the open cellar, with an incredible assortment of wines. What can I say.... But now let's get to the cuisine, revisited typical dishes, each dish taken care of in appearance but above all in flavors and respect for traditions. Typical Lucanian dishes interpreted in a masterly way. I don't know what to add except that I have to return. And if we want to talk about prices exactly in line with the local menus, only that here we are not talking about mediocre cuisine, but everything is taken care of and followed in an exquisite manner. Try it and believe it. Thank you, I had a great time.

A truly quality restaurant with a great value. Francesco's experience is undeniable and is evident throughout his dishes, perfectly blending tradition and innovation. The service is friendly, expert, and never intrusive. You won't regret it.

Highly recommended restaurant. First of all, thanks to Daniele, the waiter: kind, helpful, polite, and with excellent recommendations. The kind of person who alone makes you want to return. Excellent cuisine and a well-curated wine list. Don't miss the appetizer tasting, the peperoni cruschi (cruschi peppers) and the veal fillet with porcini mushrooms. An authentic place where you eat well and feel even better. We'll be back!

In the heart of Matera, a classy restaurant with dishes that showcase the local area. Every time I eat at Francesco's, it's a pleasure.
