Ristorante Il Porto Di De Matteis Maria In Taranto

I highly recommend it! Excellent dishes......especially the linguine with clams. 😁All the staff are polite and helpful, but Angelo is something extra. If he wasn't there, we'd have to invent him...very nice!!!

Fantastic food and excellent service. I especially recommend the seafood risotto.

A name that's a guarantee. I'm 24 years old, and it's always been my favorite place, when it came to fish, always at Umberto's. It's no coincidence that I go there for every anniversary. That said, yesterday we went again for my mom's birthday, and what can I say? Absolute kindness from the waiter, "Uncle," respectful, friendly, and professional. Excellent food, amazing appetizer. I highly recommend trying the raw ham there, it'll become addictive. 😝

Fantastic dinner!!! Delicious raw fish!!!! Kind and attentive staff!!! Antonella and Giuseppe

Nice restaurant, the food was really all good... The staff was welcoming and kind thanks always to the availability of Mr. Angelo... A place where I would gladly return, the champagne risotto was exquisite. Highly recommended...

The best....from lunch to the structure to the organization... But the friendliness, cordiality, precision and professionalism of Mr. ANGELO are in our opinion the core of a wonderful complex....we felt at home....truly a fabulous person who makes the business take off.

🌊 Il Porto – De Matteis Maria 📍 Location Located in Via Porto 8, a few steps from the water, the restaurant enjoys a splendid view of the Mar Grande and the Borgo Antico. An ideal setting for a romantic dinner or a special evening.  🍽️ Ambience & Service A welcoming, elegant but informal place, run in a family way (apparently by two brothers) with friendly and helpful staff. Many guests praise the attention to the customer and the speed of the service, even if some reviews report moments of oversight in the service.  🐟 Food Quality The heart of the experience is the fresh fish, “catch of the day” and cooked with simplicity and taste. The mixed seafood appetizers, the traditional first courses (risotto, linguine with clams) and second courses of grilled or pan-fried fish are very popular. The freshness is constantly praised. () 📋 Menu & Prices Extensive menu (about 39 dishes), with appetizers, first courses, second courses and desserts. Prices are in the medium-high range, consistent with the quality offered: generous portions and selected ingredients.  🎯 Strengths • Fresh fish daily, cooked faithfully to tradition • Suggestive and atmospheric location on the port • Family-friendly, welcoming and generally efficient service • Generous portions and good value for money ⸻ 🔍 Comparison: Fratelli Pesce Ristò Another valid alternative in the port area is Fratelli Pesce Ristò (Via Porto 18). Open since 2012, it also focuses on fresh fish and tradition, with a more refined selection (scialatielli, octopus, swordfish) and an interesting wine list. The service is described as "impeccable" and the atmosphere elegant.  ⸻ ✅ Verdict Il Porto – De Matteis Maria is definitely worth a visit if you are looking for: • Very fresh and quality fish, prepared in a traditional way • A typical and authentic atmosphere on the port of Taranto • Generous portions and justified prices • Informal and elegant at the same time If you are looking for a slightly more gourmet proposal or with a richer wine list, Fratelli Pesce Ristò could be an excellent alternative. ⸻ 💡 Final advice Book an outdoor table with a view of the port (especially on summer evenings): the combination of marine atmosphere and seafood cuisine makes the experience truly special. Enjoy your meal and have a good evening in Taranto!
