I migliori ristoranti in Matera

05/07/2026: Excellent food, desserts, cheeses, hams and wines ❤️ If you come to Matera you absolutely have to eat here 😍

05/07/2026: I've been in Matera for 2 weeks now and this restaurant amongst another I've reviewed with top marks has been a highlight. I had the Sausage Ragu Orecchiette to start with then the Cod and finished with a Tiramisu along with a sweet, crisp glass of white. All were absolutely delicious and faultless. The cod especially was cooked to perfection. The service was very friendly and professional. Treat yourself, you won't be disappointed. I'll be back next time I'm in Matera. Thank you BOH & FOH team and thank you to Ilenia at Locanda San Martino for the recommendation. My stay in Matera has finished on a memorable high😘

03/07/2026: Intrigued by their menu, we decided to try this restaurant and were pleasantly surprised. The experience was truly positive in every way: the staff was extremely kind, helpful, and attentive, making us feel immediately at ease. The dishes were excellent, carefully prepared, and rich in flavor. It was a pleasant discovery and an experience we recommend to anyone in Matera who wants to enjoy excellent food in a welcoming atmosphere.

17/06/2026: Great culinary experience in Matera. The restaurant is by the street so you can feel the vibe of the town but is private enough to allow your privacy. The food was delicious from appetizer to dessert. Local dishes with a touch of sophistication that made them all real gourmet! The staff is super friendly and welcoming and walked me through their recommendations. Definitely worth trying it! Grazie mille

10/07/2026: Delicious restaurant! An unforgettable discovery! Authentic, traditional dishes, executed to perfection. Ask for Paolo; he'll tell you all about the traditional dishes and wine with passion! The owner is also very welcoming... We'll definitely be back soon! Highly recommended!

10/07/2026: La Lopa was a lovely surprise! The waiter, Adriano, was very knowledgeable and he very kindly assisted us throughout the night. The local wine pairing he recommended was excellent too (Spaccasassi 2022). The peppers were DIVINE. Baccala fritto was perfectly fried without it feeling too oily or heavy. Both dishes of pasta we ordered were excellent and I also have to mention their olive oil; highest possible quality! Last but not least - their tiramisu was one of the best we ever had! We usually do not order it unless it is recommended, as many restaurants rarely get it right. But, since we were in Southern Italy where they rarely get things wrong, I was inclined to order it. Both my partner and I fell in love and ordered a second one!

21/05/2026: We had lunch in this nice restaurant. Ordered carbonara and tiramisu, both are superb and highly recommended!!!! Price is reasonable. The tiramisu is one of the best I’ve had in this Italy trip!!!

16/05/2026: Great view and excellent food!! Really loved it!

09/08/2026: The food and pizza are very good. The price list is updated compared to the photos in other reviews.

08/08/2026: The perfect place that never ceases to amaze I've known this pizzeria and restaurant for years, and I can say without hesitation that it's simply exceptional. In fact, it continues to improve year after year, confirming its reputation for excellence. Welcome and Atmosphere The restaurant's strength, besides the food, is the human factor. The owner is disarmingly courteous, always attentive and available. The service is impeccable: the waiters are not only extremely polite, but also possess a rare kindness that makes you feel immediately at ease. The atmosphere is serene, warm, and familiar: this is precisely what makes me prefer it to any other place. You can't go wrong here. Quality and Pizza The ingredients are fabulous, fresh, and of the highest quality. Speaking specifically about the pizza, the true definition is "phenomenal": perfect dough, light, digestible, and topped with ingredients that make a difference with every single bite. Prices Another reason to frequent this place is the absolutely competitive prices, decidedly lower than average and, above all, completely disproportionate (in a positive way!) to the extremely high quality of the food served. Final Verdict In my opinion, this is the perfect place. I wouldn't trade it for any other: the quality, courtesy, atmosphere, and affordability are top notch. Highly recommended!

07/06/2026: Excellent food, whether it's lunch, dinner, or pizza. Very friendly staff, quick service.

04/06/2026: The best food and wine I have ever had iny life 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

08/06/2026: Characteristic place, excellent food and kind and attentive staff

06/06/2026: A cozy, intimate atmosphere, with a terrace overlooking the valley and the lower part of the town: that alone helps a lot. And as for the rest, my "Lucky Lady" wife said it all...

05/07/2026: You won't find a great view of the old town, but the food is excellent! Good value for money.

02/07/2026: Although it lacks a beautiful view, it offers very good regional food at the best value for money.

11/05/2026: Everything was very good, even the service. The space is divided into two L-shaped rooms; the larger one is crowded, while the other is significantly better, except for the table near the internal door, which definitely needs to be eliminated. A bit overpriced, especially for wine: a glass costs €10-15...

10/05/2026: We came from Mexico, arriving in Matera hungry and without a reservation (many places in Italy require one). We went in here and it was fantastic. Even though I come from the American continent where we eat a lot of meat, I can assure you that I ate the best meat of my life at this restaurant—so much so that I ordered seconds!

20/05/2026: Superb place. Typical dishes, top-notch service. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Highly recommended.

20/05/2026: Positive: Very good local food, modern restaurant, renovated in 2024, clean, modern restrooms; we ate here twice. Needs improvement: The owners could be a bit friendlier and more motivated...

27/07/2026: Good coffee and oat milk are also available. Cornetto are also very generously filled.

13/07/2026: Elegant and refined location, a truly welcoming luxury café. Excellent service, especially kudos to Carmen, always attentive and courteous.

09/06/2026: The place, the food, the service and the atmosphere - fantastically delicious and pleasant with a warm, homely welcome

03/06/2026: The food was exceptionally fresh and cooked to perfection, and the staff were warm, friendly, and attentive.

10/06/2026: Fantastic view and a tasty sandwich!

10/06/2026: Great view over the city and very good service

16/05/2026: We had a delicious meal with matching wines that, together with the dish, were a taste sensation. Francesco and his team complete the experience!

24/04/2026: Francesco our main waiter was fabulous 😍. The degustation and wine pairing was sublime. It's very rare I give a 5 out of 5 for food but this place was stunning. I only gave 3 out of 5 for the atmosphere because there were not many people in the restaurant when we dined and the decor had a conflict of personality. I would have like to have seen more classic Italian decor to suit the 16th century dwelling. But please do go, it's amazing 🤩

07/05/2026: Amazing pizza!! So many delicious choices. The owner and staff were very quick and super welcoming!! Will definitely do it again!!

04/05/2026: My husband, our two children, and I dined at this restaurant last night after a busy day spent walking among the Sassi of Matera. We were greeted by kind and attentive staff, with prompt service. The pizza was excellent, the fries were special, and the "sausage of the beggar" was delicious. My husband and I ordered it first, followed by a portion of Van Gogh bruschetta—exceptional! The owner, Bartolomeo, was exceptionally kind, making us feel at home and pampered. Before leaving, I confided in him about my passion for Vincent Van Gogh. He accompanied me into the dining room, which, surprisingly, was decorated with wonderful reproductions of Van Gogh's paintings. He proudly told me about them and showed me the wines, which bear artistic labels. What more can I say?! Between the deliciousness of the dishes, the beauty of the setting, and the owner's extraordinary kindness, it was an experience that left us with a wonderful feeling of well-being! If we ever return to Matera, we'll definitely eat here, with the pleasure of greeting Bartolomeo and savoring more of his delicacies!!!! Ps: fair prices and generous portions.
