01/01/2026: We went to this fantastic restaurant with friends for a seven-course New Year's Eve dinner. The hosts were very friendly, and the food was exceptionally good. All in all, a wonderful evening. Thank you so much for this unforgettable experience.

28/02/2026: Great service Friendly stuff One of most tasteful gelato i ever tried in Italy Highly recommend it

27/02/2026: This “gelateria” is our favorite place in Matera. The flavours are amazing and the staff is very kind. If you come to Matera, this place is undoubtedly the best place to enjoy the Italian ice creams.

22/12/2025: A quaint and welcoming atmosphere, a warm and pleasant place with Italian music playing in the background. The place is very tidy and clean. The staff is kind and attentive. We enjoyed a bruschetta with crumbled sausage and melted cheese, truly delicious, and an Irish burger with cheddar and bacon, accompanied by crispy fries. To finish, a delicious tiramisu.

01/11/2025: Great place! Delicious pizza, friendly staff, and a welcoming atmosphere. Recommended! 🍕✨

10/02/2026: The lady and gentleman were so lovely. Delicious food, a wonderfully homey atmosphere. A cat even roamed the bar. We felt right at home. We wholeheartedly recommend it ❤️❤️

16/02/2026: Exceptional service and customer care. Truly delicious traditional cuisine.

15/02/2026: Very good first courses, I highly recommend them.

16/03/2026: My experience at this restaurant was extremely positive. I searched online for restaurants in Matera and, fortunately, I chose this one based on a hunch. A very charming place among the Sassi... clean and quiet. The atmosphere is lovely. The young man who served us was courteous, kind, and friendly; it was a real pleasure dealing with him. We ordered a local appetizer, a plate of orecchiette, a sliced ​​meat, and a dessert. Everything was excellent and with attention to detail. Prices were completely reasonable. Service was prompt. Quick enough and welcoming. I recommend it and hope to return!

15/03/2026: A very warm welcome and impeccable service. The waiter was very friendly. He made a point of speaking French. Wine cellar with a wide selection.

24/02/2026: A popular nightlife spot in Matera. It's the perfect place to meet someone or simply spend an evening with friends. The cocktails are the highlight, and there are plenty. The price reflects the high quality of the preparations. The food is equally excellent, and is more of a side dish than a dinner. The location in the Sassi district holds its own against its competitors.

05/12/2025: Good music and a good atmosphere

01/03/2026: Delicious pizza and very friendly staff! RECOMMENDED

03/01/2026: Very friendly and very good meat

02/02/2026: Spectacular welcome. Excellent food. I recommend the meat, which is exquisite. In the summer, it should be wonderful with outdoor seating. In the winter, it's cozy and tastefully decorated. The owner's father welcomed us with a smile on his face... perhaps because we were with a dear friend of his? But I don't think so... both he and his son are truly wonderful.

31/01/2026: From the outside, it doesn't look very appealing. It's a bit out of the way, to the point that if they hadn't suggested it to us, we probably wouldn't have even entered. For a moment, we wondered if it was really open and if we should open the door. And finally... fortunately we entered. Inside, the space is beautiful, warm and fits perfectly with Matera. They took us upstairs, where there were already customers, and from there everything went very smoothly. The boy who served us was friendly, relaxed, willing to explain without style, without rushing. The food was what you expect to eat here. Local cuisine, well-cooked, with flavor and substance. Nothing supposedly touristy. The wine was an excellent choice. It was called Akratos, a reference to ancient Greek tradition. The pure, undiluted wine that, according to the ancients, only Dionysus could drink. Strong, full, with character, and perfectly tied to the dishes. And the dessert came at the end simply and properly, without exaggeration, closing the meal beautifully. An experience that stays with you. We would go again without a second thought

15/02/2026: It's the restaurant owned by the owners of our accommodation in Maestri. We only had two appetizers because we have to travel back up north. But the quality of both dishes was exceptional. Not to mention the menu, which is simply heavenly, and which we hope to have other opportunities to try.

11/02/2026: Wonderful dinner, great food! Highly recommended!

16/02/2026: Courtesy, a relaxing atmosphere, and smiles. I felt pampered by the professional way in which they listened to my dietary preferences and offered me personalized choices. The octopus and spaghetti with mussels were excellent, and overall the dishes were all refined and well-balanced. Wide selection of wines.

11/02/2026: My stay in Matera, a fascinating and enchanting place, was crowned by the discovery of this charming and welcoming restaurant. Impeccable service, innovative and artistically presented cuisine. I returned after some time and found everything even more excellent!

09/03/2026: Very friendly staff, fair prices, quality products.

26/02/2026: Unique place, delicious food! We'll definitely be back.

05/03/2026: Excellent agriturismo...welcoming atmosphere; top-notch lunch, dinner, and breakfast.

01/03/2026: Il Pago makes you feel at home, a magnificent place surrounded by nature, with super friendly and helpful staff and owners, and finally, the food is not only delicious but also authentic. Rating: 10

15/03/2026: Truly beautiful location, informal and fast service. Special attention is paid to the finest ingredients, especially from the cellar.

15/03/2026: The place looks good. Renovated and well-maintained. In my opinion, the positives stop there: the food and experience weren't up to par. They fed us in 25 minutes, with the appetizer decidedly bland, one of the first courses too salty, and the second course too garlicky. There are definitely better options in Matera.

13/12/2025: I recommend it, the staff is kind and friendly, I would add quality and price 👏

09/12/2025: EXCELLENT FOOD AND EXCELLENT SERVICE. THE AMBIENCE IS WARM AND WELCOMING. I RECOMMEND IT FOR A SIMPLE PIZZA WITH FRIENDS OR FOR EVENTS.
