I migliori ristoranti in Matera

06/11/2025: Very tasty food and very nice service

06/11/2025: Visited today. Delicious starters, wonderful pasta with beef and mushrooms. Great service.

18/11/2025: La Fedda Rossa was our base for a 2-day vacation in the beautiful Matera. We were blown away by the exquisite dishes and the quality of the ingredients used. Below are photos of the dishes: breathtaking cruschi pepper cones, incredibly delicious meatballs with a lemon potato sauce that I can't even begin to describe; the pasta dishes (strascinati and orecchiette alla materana) were phenomenal, not to mention the Ciccio bruschetta and the berry cheesecake. I highly recommend the place, especially for the kindness of the waiters, who made us feel right at home!

17/11/2025: Nice in everything. Love the food and staff were friendly. A wonderful first meal at Matera

17/09/2025: We stumbled upon this ice cream shop by chance. I was struck by the elegance of the place and then by the ice cream. The flavors are different from the usual and delicious. Delicate yet enveloping. Go and savor these delicacies, you won't regret it!

04/09/2025: Located next to the Antico Frantoio restaurant, it's one of the best gelaterias in Bernalda. We had granitas there the two nights we stayed there. It's well-maintained and has an attractive display case. Prices are reasonable. Both the gelato and granita are definitely worth trying. I highly recommend it.

13/11/2025: Excellent Italian, "modernized" food

12/11/2025: The service wasn't up to par for a refined establishment; the waiters were unprepared, distracted, and unprofessional. Out of three courses, only one was adequate (a mixed fried dish), while the fusilli (good) was undercooked, while the cozzmorr tasted only of grilled meat, and the offal was stringy and rubbery.

02/10/2025: Awesome aperol spritz and negroni, very friendly Staff. Highly recommend!

16/09/2025: Besides having very nice and affordable wine, I left my wallet there and the business managed to find me on social media and took the time to mail it to me. Incredibly kind of them to do so.

30/10/2025: A very nice place, located close to the historic center of Matera, near the entrance to the pedestrian area; typical local architecture, tastefully decorated, clean, and quite spacious. The staff is welcoming and friendly, young and well-trained. They quickly seat you and introduce you to the house specialties. The menu features a variety of typical dishes from Matera, including pignata and pignatella. The wine list is good. The ingredients are good. The dishes, well-prepared and presented, in my opinion, the "more elaborate" ones lack a distinctive touch that would highlight their authenticity. The cheese selection is excellent, and the appetizers are good overall. I had the opportunity to try the pignatella; it's a dish that needs to be savored with patience 🌬️. I really liked the flavor. I would have liked a little more meat and even a few pieces of sausage in addition to the crumbled one, but it was still very good. I really enjoyed dipping the dough that serves as the lid for the pignata into the broth at the end. For dessert, we tried the "sporcamusso," which was also delicious: delicate puff pastry, a soft creamy filling with balanced flavors. The only flaw was that the pastry was quite warm, while the creamy filling was cold, even lukewarm. But at that hour, it was nice not to get your face dirty with boiling cream. The quality/price ratio was decent, within the limits of what the market offers, but overall, the place has room for improvement. I will return to try the Pignata. Overall, I recommend going, especially in the evening. Given the proximity to the historic center, after eating, a stroll along the main street of Matera by night was a pleasant experience.

27/10/2025: I recommend the "pignata", excellent!

12/11/2025: Might be cause of low season but there was plenty of space outside to watch the sunset and Campari spritz + pizza slice at 12 EUR which is pretty affordable compared to next door

31/10/2025: How wonderful to find out we'd paid an extra €5 because we sat on the terrace: it wasn't marked at all, we weren't even warned, and besides, we couldn't see a thing because it was dark. There were two of us, and one of us even had his back turned. LIKE STEALING MONEY FROM PEOPLE.

02/11/2025: An evening with friends in a welcoming and charming atmosphere, with excellent food. Good value for money. Definitely recommended.

01/11/2025: We ate very well. The platter they gave us was very generous. There were four of us, and the platter for two was more than enough. The starters weren't very generous at first glance, but they filled us up in the end. The waiter was very kind, and the service was very efficient. The atmosphere was very beautiful, typical of Matera. The path to the Tibetan Bridge is nearby. All in all, it was a wonderful experience.

30/06/2025: Mille Grazie! We had a panini with mortadella and mozzarella! Great and highly recommended! O

10/06/2025: I'm from Matera but I've lived outside for many years. I emphasize this because going to Anna's means tasting the TRUE FLAVORS OF LUCAN. Out of this world lasagna, broad beans and chicory, orecchiette turnip tops, fried breadcrumbs and crusco. Braciole, sausages and so on and so forth. It's all stratospheric! Well done and kind ❤️

10/10/2025: Don’t miss this spot when you’re in Matera! Our sandwiches were incredible (burrata, mortadella, pesto) and the service was warm and inviting. Highly recommend!

06/10/2025: It's worth deviating a bit from the main road for the best panini we've had in Italy. The ingredients are fresh and delicious, and the tiramisu made by the owner is one of the best we've had in the region. Definitely a place worth recommending :)

28/10/2025: Everything excellent as always.

16/10/2025: We loved it here! One of our favorite restaurants in Italy; probably the best. The waiter and chef worked with us to plan our menu (our Italian skills were... eh) and they made sure we ended up with food choices that were good for us and the whole nice was a great success.

02/11/2025: For the first time, I came to Pomarico, a stone's throw from Matera, for work, and on the recommendation of some acquaintances, I was directed to this restaurant. I couldn't have given better advice. The food is truly excellent. The veal tagliata is spectacular, with a side of country-style potatoes. Even though one of the house specialties is horse meat, whose cuts are processed in various ways, including the diaphragm, which is very difficult to find, both for veal and horse. The only flaw, if I may say so, but it's not so much a criticism as a recommendation, especially since I stand by the five-star rating, is the bottle of Primitivo di Manduria. It can't be served chilled; it's blasphemy. Otherwise, everything else was excellent. I hope to return. Highly recommended. See you next time.

28/10/2025: Great place to eat excellent horse meat

29/10/2025: Everything was delicious. The place was nice and clean.

14/10/2025: The service is courteous and attentive, not intrusive. I have a few reservations about the seafood appetizers, but that's my personal preference. I believe fish should be treated as simply as possible, but it's clear the chef has tried to offer more innovative dishes that are slightly outside of the traditional norm. Both the grilled fish and the fried mixed seafood are truly excellent (and plentiful). In any case, an experience worth repeating, recommended for seafood lovers.

21/11/2025: Few paccheri 5 of number little fish in the seasoning, they advise things or do or I don't know do thanks

20/11/2025: Traditional cuisine from neighboring towns, updated with a touch of flair and a few twists, partly based on the ingredients found at the market. The preparation is excellent, the flavor is excellent, and the service and presentation are almost impeccable. We'll definitely return! The prices seem appropriate for the quality of the food, as well as the hard work and dedication put into it by the owners and staff.

06/10/2025: I visited this place with a group of photographers. It's a beautiful place. The owners are very kind and friendly; it's like being guests in a private home. Excellent value for money. See you next time.

06/10/2025: A wonderful experience, characterized by excellent home cooking and a genuinely family welcome.
