I migliori ristoranti in Matera

16/09/2025: Terrible experience. It felt like a coffee and beer bar that turned into a restaurant. Perhaps the worst place I've ever eaten. All the fish was definitely frozen and badly cooked. The service needs to be reconsidered, the wait staff definitely not up to the job they're supposed to do. The lobster packets should be renamed "some pacchero al pomodoro," the octopus tasted like chewing gum, the wine was even warm, the fried fish tasted like cardboard. We're talking about "nightmare kitchens." It's only worth a visit because it was the only restaurant open in town.

14/09/2025: The food? Who saw it?! The service? Terrible! The atmosphere? Screaming in the kitchen and bathroom, only for men and women, dirty! A terrible experience.

14/09/2025: Everything is excellent, nothing to add.

18/08/2025: Nice place, good aperitif, excellent desserts. The only downside is the attitude of one of the employees, she seems to be snobbish! She snorts in your face even when you simply ask her to pay (and it's not the first time she's done it)... (advice) Maybe she should change jobs. The place deserves to be enhanced with a little courtesy and a smile!

19/05/2025: Sunday lunch. Booked in advance. The place was packed beyond capacity, even blocking the wheelchair ramp. The food didn't arrive. After the appetizer, which wasn't enough for the number of people we were, we decided to leave. It was impossible to continue in that chaos and we had been at the table for almost two hours. The owner treated us terribly, very arrogant. We paid too much for the misery they brought us.

12/05/2025: It was an experience to forget. Since the restaurant was full, the staff immediately seemed very annoyed at having to be there, but apart from that, there is no menu so you eat what is told to you verbally without a price or an indication of allergens or whether it is frozen or not. After ordering, we first received the pasta with tomato sauce for the children (cold), then the appetizers in measly portions because, we discovered later, they had mixed up the table orders and so we ate (and paid) for a table of 8, but with portions for a table of 4. The worst is yet to come, in fact the second courses arrived before the first courses and despite this the meat was cold and we had to send it back because it tasted rancid, as if it had been cooked and left there. Disgusted, but still respectful and polite, we wanted to address the problem to the cashier, but avoiding unnecessary confrontations; except that the lady at the checkout started shouting, pointing at us and saying "they're waiting because they want to argue". Well dear lady, if we had wanted to argue we would have had every reason, because you don't give spoiled food to people, especially at a table with two two year old children. We (over)paid and left certain that you will never see us again because that's not how you work in a serious way, I'm sorry for other unfortunate people who, like us, will stumble upon your ineptitude.

24/08/2025: I've dined there twice. The first courses were good, and the second courses were also good. The price was above average.

29/07/2025: The seafood linguine was fabulous! I really enjoyed the artisanal gelato, especially the zabaglione flavor. The pizza was also excellent. Perfect for those who still enjoy traditional, authentic flavors. The owners were incredibly friendly. I'll definitely be back!

21/10/2025: Magnificent overnight stay in this magical place. An old cave transformed into a bedroom with a small alcove. The exterior facade is sublime. Comfortable bedding. High-quality amenities. Look carefully at the period photos to learn about the work carried out (7 years ago) and the living conditions of the local population at the time. Special mention to our host who spoke impeccable French. Bravo

18/08/2025: Top location, beautiful rooms in all categories (even the standard category, and the upscale categories as well), delicious and plentiful breakfast, and friendly and impeccable service. Highly recommended!

04/10/2025: A small restaurant at the entrance to the Sassi. A very traditional menu, with a focus on meat dishes. Reasonable prices, and the friendly staff.

04/10/2025: Very nice place, but it's a shame about the food: the portions are small, the selection is limited, and the prices, in my opinion, are a bit high. If you choose the €19.90 set menu with a choice of dishes, you basically have to eat within the limited circle they specify.

22/07/2025: Abbiamo trascorso una serata durante la settimana con amici, siamo rimasti molto delusi dalla lunga (40 minuti circa)attesa delle pizze visto che la pizzeria era quasi vuota e dal prezzo finale. La location è tipica dei sassi e la pizza è 4 su 5 come voto. Abbiamo pagato 13€ cadauna per una birra artigianale e 30€ per 10 sporca musso. Diciamo che abbiamo considerato il prezzo finale alto. Inoltre nell'attesa delle pizze abbiamo notato che il proprietario tra una comanda e l'altra stava mangiando accanto a noi, scena poco cortese per un cliente. Sicuramente la prossima volta eviteremo questo locale.

20/06/2025: Service pitoyable commande prise 1 h après notre arrivée, amabilité zéro , le premier mange et le dernier mange 45 mn plus tard ...nul .
