I migliori ristoranti di cucina italiana in Matera

24/06/2026: Everything was delicious, and the wait was practically non-existent. It's best to book a table to avoid disappointment.

15/04/2026: Exceptional quality, friendly, attentive, and attentive service, and a charming, authentic butcher's shop. We'll definitely be returning.

04/08/2026: High quality and excellent value. Recommended.

09/07/2026: A pleasant discovery. We stumbled upon it by chance, but the products they use, mostly homegrown, are mouth-watering.

11/08/2026: Excellent place, quality pizza and ingredients, efficient service. They offer excellent gluten-free pizza (for those with a mild intolerance, it's grilled in the same gluten-free pizza oven). The quality/price ratio is standard.

09/08/2026: Excellent, high-quality pizza. Welcoming atmosphere and very kind owner.

27/12/2025: We came to visit Matera and were looking for a place to stop for lunch. We couldn't have chosen a better place; we opted for seafood. They were truly excellent. The quality-price ratio is unbeatable. Highly recommended.

25/11/2025: Today at lunch, I saw all the positive reviews that inspired me to try this restaurant. I can say that the quality of the ingredients and the preparation are truly excellent. We had two portions of cardoon pie, one parmigiana, and one fried artichoke, along with three bottles of water for €24. The dining room is welcoming and clean. You can use the restroom. Highly recommended.

03/08/2026: I didn't want to write a too-good review because then more people will eat there and I won't be able to find a place next time. Friendly, humble, kind, very professional... smart...!!! The quality of the meat is excellent, like everything else. Prices are more than fair and generous.

03/07/2026: After reading the positive reviews for this restaurant, I booked a lunch yesterday with a couple of friends. We had the delicious charcuterie and cheese platter, followed by two hearty first courses: linguine alo scoglio, and the fried food was delicious. The owner was very friendly and approachable. We'll definitely be back to try the pizza, since they have an outdoor seating area. The prices were good, and we were offered coffee and a liqueur. We'll definitely be back.

06/06/2025: Very nice restaurant with good food and very friendly service. A very warm welcome from the kitchen, good Prosecco, and a fantastic dessert (caramel cocoa tart)! We'd be happy to go back! The waiter made a real effort to speak Italian slowly, so we were able to understand him well despite our holiday Italian. So much more pleasant than being spoken to in English despite having limited Italian skills :)

05/06/2025: Atmospheric, delicious food and a very good sommelier. Are you here; make a reservation and have a nice dinner!

09/06/2026: EXCELLENCE, WARMTH, AND EXCELLENT CUISINE: simply perfect! We celebrated our little girl's baptism in the splendid Ermica reception hall last Sunday, and we couldn't have asked for anything better. From the first to the last moment, every detail was taken care of with great professionalism. The Welcome: From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with rare warmth and friendliness by the owner Anna and her entire staff. The staff is meticulous, attentive to every little need, and capable of making every guest feel at ease. The staff's organization allows us to enjoy the party without a care in the world, from the carefully curated outdoor setup for wonderful souvenir photos to the inclusion of freebies for the little ones throughout the day (the outdoor room is set up for a crepe and popcorn cart, as well as a play area for the children inside, who are, of course, supervised by staff). The music and vocalist were also fun, engaging all the guests with discretion and without being pushy. The Cuisine: The lunch was impeccable in every way. Each course was a triumph of flavors, with high-quality ingredients cooked to perfection and presented with great elegance and modernity. All our guests couldn't help but compliment the deliciousness and freshness of the dishes. (They even ordered second courses.) The location is enchanting and the atmosphere is magical, but it's the passion, precision, and heart of those who work there that truly make the difference. Highly recommended to anyone looking for the best for their special events. Hotel Sala Ricevimenti Ermica, a real guarantee!

07/06/2026: We got married a few days ago and celebrated here at Sala Ermica, and we couldn't have made a better choice!! We've been in love with the room for a while now, having attended another event there a couple of years ago. I already knew this would be our room for our special day, and so it was ❤️ Anna, the owner, was simply unique. She followed us every step of the way, was there for us at every moment, and was always thoughtful and ready to help. A thank you is never enough ❤️ Walter, the Maitre d', was impeccable, always available and ready, even for our little girl. He made all her wishes come true. And what can I say about the Chef? Wonderful dishes full of colors and aromas, every ingredient was of excellent quality. The waiters were always helpful and kind to everyone; they did an excellent job. My sincere compliments to Anna and all her staff. You made us live a dream come true! ❤️

02/06/2026: There are places you visit and then forget, and then there are places like Tempa Bianca, which manage to leave a lasting impression. From the first moment, we felt welcomed with genuine kindness, the kind that can't be faked and that makes you feel instantly at home.

06/06/2026: A guarantee of quality and taste

17/05/2026: Warm, ironic atmosphere, simple but high-quality cuisine, excellent service and unique dining room staff.

07/07/2026: The staff are fantastic, we'll be back next time!

05/07/2026: Absolutely lovely staff, very helpful and polite. They actually understand and speak English, which was a relief. Thank you!

24/12/2025: A nice small restaurant in Matera center amongst the touristic areas. The food was quite tasty and the people were super friendly. Considering the touristic nature of the place the restaurants are quite pricy you pay more invariably and this place is similar. Considering that they serve authentic local Cuisines and food was good it is recommended.

05/10/2025: Super nice and super delicious! We had the orecchiette al ragu and tagliolini al tartufo lucano. I really don't understand the negative reviews! I would definitely come back here!

03/04/2026: Excellent quality, excellent service

20/03/2026: The savory and sweet panzerotti are delicious. The staff is friendly.

29/03/2026: What can I say... it's an experience you shouldn't miss. Innovative, refined, and tasty cuisine. Impeccable service and a charming atmosphere!

24/03/2026: Location: 5/5 Carved into a rock, the restaurant embodies the very essence of Matera. Centrally located yet far from the invasive tourist crowds, it can also be reached by car with the appropriate permits. The modern interior contrasts harmoniously with the restored ancient stone. The table setting is simple and refined, with one noteworthy detail: dedicated lighting above each table, designed to highlight the food served. A unique location that alone justifies the visit. Menu: 5/5 Excellent in every way: selection, variety, creativity, presentation. Each dish is the result of careful study, with a narrative involving ingredients, cutlery, and tableware, a multi-sensory experience. You don't just eat: you experience a journey. Such a strong coherence between idea and execution is rare. The wine list is worthy of note, with a carefully selected and extensive selection. Service: 4/5 Precise, welcoming, professional. The food and wine recommendations are spot on. The only limitation is numerical: additional staff in the dining room would ensure even greater fluidity. The menu selection via QR code is less appealing, as it clashes with the level of experience and forces the use of a phone in a context that deserves the opposite. Bill: 4/5 Significant, but justified. The quality of the ingredients, the creativity, and the care put into each individual dish are reflected in the price. You pay for serious work, and it's worth it. Haute cuisine with a local identity and a personal vision. An experience that justifies the trip.

16/07/2026: We tasted the real local specialties and not a tourist menu... just to fill our bellies... excellent, I highly recommend it

13/07/2026: Friendly service, delicious food, and a wide selection. Good value for money, modern, air-conditioned atmosphere. It has outdoor seating with parasols and is centrally located. 👌

06/06/2026: I'm starting from the premise that this hotel in Nova Siri is excellent: clean rooms, impeccable service, and top-notch cuisine. I had a wonderful time and can't wait to return. Kudos to all the staff!

01/06/2026: Excellent hotel to stay in the area. Clean, comfortable, and very cozy. Perfect air conditioning and not noisy. They have an excellent restaurant and a private beach with sun loungers and a restaurant on the sea.
