I migliori ristoranti in Matera

11/10/2025: I returned after a year. Authentic, locally sourced food. Very friendly staff. The platters and cheeses are highly recommended.

21/09/2025: Nice little place, though nothing special. Good food, but I'd say the prices are a bit high. The quality-price ratio is poor, but it could be improved.

21/10/2025: A few tables with a view of the sassis, otherwise it will be a large rustic room "in its own juice". Very good octopus (€20), less luck with the salad.

15/10/2025: The location is extraordinary, with magnificent views of the Sassi of Matera. The service was fast, very correct, and friendly. As for the food, it wasn't bad, considering we were a group of 40 people.

31/08/2025: A convivial sunset aperitif. Very friendly and attentive staff. Reasonable prices and a beautiful view. I recommend it.

06/08/2025: Great atmosphere, spectacular drinks, excellent service

27/09/2025: Eeeeeepic, everything is delicious, with sweet and savory options. Expensive? Mmmmmmdah, somewhere in between, it's worth it. The only danger is that every time you pass by, you'll want to try something else.

14/09/2025: A well-organized and well-maintained bakery. You can purchase a variety of baked goods. Try the stuffed focaccias.

20/09/2025: Seven dinners in September. No waiting, lots of delicious, high-quality pizzas. The mixed fried fish was also delicious. Thank you so much, Mara, for your kindness and hospitality.

08/09/2025: 5-star quality BarRistoPizzeria 🌟

22/11/2025: We stopped here for lunch, we had two soups and the cannelloni. The food should have been hotter as it was tiepid.

09/11/2025: We only stopped for a coffee, which honestly wasn't bad, but the service was slow and it cost €2.50 for a sit-down meal. You pay for being inside the Sassi of Matera, and for the tourists who come and go.

14/10/2025: The opening hours are fake. Arrived 10am and not opening tho the sign said it’s open

13/09/2025: After we'd consumed four bottles of wine, a man simply announced he was closing and rudely removed our glasses and chairs, telling us we should leave because he wanted to close. All the other places were open. He's truly rude. I recommend you try somewhere else.

25/10/2025: I'm giving it a 1 because you can't give a 0 (or in our case, even less). I can't rate either the food or the drinks because, due to the absolutely rude, aggressive, unpleasant, and completely unprofessional behavior (and completely gratuitous), we left, avoiding (most likely what would have happened) the terrible food and drinks. Incidentally, the name of the place is now Maracuja. One wonders how places like this, run like this, manage to stay open. We later discovered they have a terrible reputation throughout Matera. Perhaps that's why they changed the name to Maracuja, so that people looking for reviews wouldn't find them. Stay away, and any other place in Matera will be better off.

22/10/2025: 8 euros for a couple of drinks and then a fight to use the toilets - not very impressed
