I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Matera

17/08/2025: Terrible experience. I went to dinner here a few days ago with a group of friends. My only lasting memory is of rude, intrusive, and unpleasant service. Starting with the dishes and wines the waiter insistently "recommends" (or tries to impose, to be fair). He then proceeds to blame the guests amidst the delirium of service (I open the restaurant menu and find the first sheet missing from its cover: I don't have time to pick it up, read it, and put it back together before I'm scolded for dismantling the menu). So many banalities that make the stay and the evening highly unpleasant. Another sore point about the service is the lack of staff. We spent the evening with the waiter rushing around, saying "I'll be there after I've been to the other table" every time we asked for an audience (perhaps they should adjust the staff to the restaurant's capacity, or adjust the number of guests accommodated based on staffing). All these aspects contributed to a tragicomic and unpleasant atmosphere, which this place would have the (unexploited) fortune to find within a romantic and timeless setting like that created by the Sassi of Matera. I find these unpleasant experiences both in various reviews from those who had unluckily stumbled upon this place before us, and in the clumsy and rude responses given to them. My mistake for not having read these reviews first. A quick note on the food: nothing special, dishes that were average, but not particularly impressive. But overall, they were made secondary by the circumstances we found ourselves in.

17/08/2025: We visited this restaurant three times during our stay in Matera. The service was impeccable, the wine list was extensive, the wait time was average, and above all, the food was truly delicious! Thank you.

03/08/2025: Very homey and welcoming. Wonderful local cuisine, with excellent products.

13/07/2025: I practically left the table hungry, a "cook" unsuited to this job in terms of skill and education. I wouldn't recommend it even to my worst enemy. It's definitely on its way out.

20/06/2025: Wir waren zu Mittag in dieser Osteria. Super nette Bedienung, gutes Essen, guter Wein, alles super. Eine EMPFEHLUNG von mir 😊

13/06/2025: Nous avons été servi en 2h pour 2 assiettes par personnes. La 2 eme assiette est arrivée rapidement quand je me suis levé pour payer ce que j avais consommé et partir.... La qualité est plutot douteuse...1 steak haché congelé archi cuit accompagné de salade et de pomme de terre rissolées vendu comme hamburger ...une honte. En plus , quand nous avons demandé des explications, on nous a repondu avec agressivité. En clair: le touriste n a rien a dire, content ou pas, ils ne le reverrons pas....du moment qu'ils payent c est bon et basta...

13/07/2025: Centrally located bar. Ideal for those looking for a simple lunch break without breaking the bank. Welcoming and helpful staff. Recommended.

06/07/2025: Authentic bar in the heart of Matera

03/02/2025: The owner is really delicious, very good pizza

20/06/2025: Superbe sassi /restaurant en retrait de rue avec salle troglodyte pour les temps chauds et belle terrasse Très très bonnes pâtes !

24/05/2025: Abbiamo mangiato all'aperto, angolino delizioso e piatti tipici, tutto molto buono. Servizio impeccabile e silenzioso, peccato...credevo ci fosse più vista da seduti...ma basta affacciarsi che la splendida Matera appare in tutta la sua bellezza.

05/08/2025: A pizzeria restaurant with quality products! Excellent grilled food, and the calamarata with cruschi and fish is a must-try! Friendly and helpful staff! A must-try if you want to experience the local specialties in all their glory!

22/07/2025: A place away from the chaos, very original. Good pizza 🍕

09/09/2025: Excellent pizza, excellent meat, excellent service THANK YOU

24/07/2025: Truly delicious pizza, served with attentive and friendly service! Very comfortable and spacious place, with a lovely outdoor area. Parking is quite easy.

24/08/2025: I can only recommend this pizza to everyone 👍

22/08/2025: Excellent pizza, fair prices. Highly recommended.

09/06/2025: Teleurstellende ervaring, 12 euro voor 6 stukjes tomaat en 120 ml mozarella kaas in een zakje 12 euro.. De bediening was wel wat verbeterd maar al met al een echte afrader

31/05/2025: Spectacular…. I came back after three years always super

03/09/2025: A very relaxing and familiar place. It feels like home, and the people are down-to-earth and friendly. I'd go back just for the atmosphere.

03/09/2025: A truly enchanting place! The restaurant has tables nestled in a beautiful garden, lovingly tended by the owners, who are friendly, kind, and down-to-earth. The fried fish was the best I've ever eaten: crispy, light, and flavorful. The pizza, too, was simply perfect, with an easy-to-digest dough and fresh ingredients. All at surprisingly low prices. A pleasant experience in every way, highly recommended!

08/06/2025: Excellent restaurant for both meat and fish and fabulous pizzeria. In the summer a large outdoor space is set up that can accommodate many guests. An end-of-school-year pizza was organized there and between parents, boys/girls and teachers we were 73 people❤️ The staff is attentive to every need: the point of reference in the dining room is Elisa, very quick to organize and serve at the tables. Highly recommended restaurant - pizzeria.

11/05/2025: Il pleuvait et rien ne nous donnait envie de retourner dans le centre. Nous avons découvert ce restaurant tout à fait parfait hasard et ce fut un très belle découverte. Amabilité, qualité des plats, prix très corrects tout y est pour passer un très bon moment.

29/08/2025: Kindness, politeness, professionalism! A place I recommend to everyone, especially for the location, food, and service. I especially recommend the herb risotto with walnuts and figs prepared by chef Leo...truly amazing! We were also served by Tina, who was truly excellent and professional! Top!!

27/08/2025: As travelling through Basilicata, Bernalda is worth visiting. Cinecittà Bar serves very good apertivi in a central location of the town.

27/07/2025: I ate very well. Thank you and goodbye 😊

18/07/2025: The food was very poor. It was the first time I'd ever eaten overcooked pasta in Italy. I don't recommend it.
