I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea

08/07/2025: You eat very well, recommended place

08/07/2025: 🚨 paradise for celiacs 🌾🚫 Bread/ Pizza/ fried all gluten free and very tasty. It’s worth it and they’re very friendly. Highly recommend !

19/08/2025: Atmosphere, view, service, very kind staff, excellent food! What more could one ask for from this magical place??

17/08/2025: ✨LUXURIOUS ✨ Yes, luxurious is the most fitting word for this wonderful restaurant. As with all locations in the Sassi of Matera, unfortunately, pedestrian access isn't the best, so be careful of climbs, descents, and steps. Especially if you have injuries, disabilities, very young children, or anything else, this is unfortunately not a place I would recommend. Also pay attention to GPS directions, which often take you close to your destination but not precisely to your destination. That said, the place is truly enchanting, located practically opposite the Rupestrian Church of Santa Maria di Idris, a beautiful monument in itself, which, along with the rest of the setting, practically becomes a nativity scene at night. When booking, I really appreciated the ability to specify any requests in the notes, from allergies or intolerances to a seat on the terrace, which I highly recommend. Obviously, this is a restaurant that is at its best in the evening; by choosing a table outside, you can fully enjoy the experience. Another convenience was being able to change the reservation time online up to 10 minutes in advance. This "digital" service, I must say, is very well managed, avoiding unnecessary phone calls and bad moods. The food is truly excellent, with refined and sophisticated dishes. BE CAREFUL: a minimum of three courses per person is mandatory, which will set you back around €80 per person, so be careful about this detail, which is often discovered once you're seated and reading the menu. The waiters' courtesy and kindness were quite good, although in a place like this, I would suggest paying more attention to your bearing, your attire, and especially wearing white gloves to better reflect the beauty of the place. Some things seem obvious to me, but unfortunately, Matera isn't yet fully ready to make this leap, precisely because people get lost in the details that make the difference. In conclusion, if you love beautiful places, luxury, landscapes, and good food, this is a place for you. Your wallet may cry, but oh well, sometimes it's okay. Treat yourself.

10/09/2025: I ordered the grilled octopus with pistachio cream. The dish itself was good and beautifully presented, but unfortunately the octopus was burned. It also seemed like the grill hadn't been cleaned properly, leaving a bitter aftertaste that ruined the experience. The Melodia pasta was really good.

08/09/2025: Excellent cuisine, an interesting menu featuring a variety of high-quality ingredients. Try the "Sciccheria" pasta, with red shrimp, pistachios, salted ricotta, and cherry tomatoes. Delicious! The owners are extremely kind, helpful, and friendly.

19/07/2025: Very nice restaurant. Excellent service and good advice. The waitress was knowledgeable about gluten intolerance and was able to recommend gluten-free dishes. The menu features many regional specialties, such as snails and rabbit. The mashed potatoes were superbly seasoned (with pesto?), and I'll order it again next time. The beef was very tender and delicious.

15/07/2025: Great location, fantastic setting, excellent and very attentive service. The food quality is top-notch. We'd gladly return.

26/06/2025: Everything perfect!!!!! A commendation to the dinner, really good.

23/06/2025: A true corner of paradise discovered a few years ago and, after the last stay, I can only reconfirm its beauty. The staff is always super welcoming and helpful, while the location is beautiful and well-kept. The restaurant and the breakfast buffet full of high-quality products are also excellent. Highly recommended.

11/09/2025: Themed evening, Indian menu, everything delicious, smooth and friendly service, good wines, location with modern furnishings, large outdoor garden, with outdoor tables, good value for money, highly recommended.

07/09/2025: Evocative atmosphere, refined setting Impeccable service Delicious food A true and total immersion

07/09/2025: I went a year ago with friends who recommended it, and I have to say they were very positive about all the courses, from appetizers to main courses. This time, the only flaw was the first courses, which weren't up to par with last year. Otherwise, everything was fine!

04/09/2025: Terrible pappardella with porcini mushrooms with raw porcini mushrooms not recommended

10/08/2025: A perfect place for excellent food

29/07/2025: I appreciated the variety of the menu, the quality of the products, and the courtesy of the staff. The cacio & pepe pici were truly excellent (perhaps a little too salty for my personal taste), as were the well-made potato ravioli with pistachio pesto, sun-dried tomatoes, pecorino cheese, and fiordilatte. The prices were fair, and there was no wait that evening for dinner. Don't miss the pizza; huge, thin, and incredibly tasty.

18/08/2025: We wandered in by chance and left thrilled by the quality and service. The best trattoria in Trieste

18/08/2025: The blackboard at the entrance reads "the best trattoria in Trieste." It's true.

01/08/2025: Excellent pizza, quiet atmosphere, and the outdoor seating area overlooking the promenade with a sea view is truly beautiful. The waiters were very friendly and prompt. A very pleasant dinner.

31/07/2025: Good Neapolitan pizza, generous toppings. Fast service. The only drawback is the high prices, but it's worth a try.

24/08/2025: I went to the restaurant for a family dinner. The place is welcoming and elegant, with a relaxing atmosphere. The staff is extremely friendly, professional, and attentive to every detail. The dishes are top-notch and the fish is incredibly fresh! Recommended!

18/08/2025: An intimate, elegant, minimalist room with soothing colors. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and available to answer any questions or concerns. A very refined selection of wines, among other things. The dishes served are delicious and beautifully presented, revealing a sense of experimentation and boldness; they are undoubtedly the result of hard work and creativity. The choice of food pairings is never boring. The restaurant caters to every need, especially any intolerance. I highly recommend La Vecchia Botte. I can't wait to return!

21/07/2025: Really good pizza. Fair prices, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommended.

18/07/2025: Good pizza and excellent slice.

22/08/2025: My girlfriend and I went there for dinner and had a great time! We were greeted with a smile (which is not a given), and when we asked to move inside, we were promptly and willingly accommodated. The lake appetizer we shared was truly excellent. Next, we opted for two lake-based carbonara pasta dishes, which were also good, but in my opinion a bit too peppery—a shame because the flavor of the trout used instead of the traditional guanciale wasn't quite there. The waiter recommended a glass of white wine to pair with it, which turned out to be good. Recommended!

22/08/2025: Truly a beautiful restaurant, with super helpful and welcoming waiters! I recommend the lake appetizer because it was truly special! The salmon trout was incredibly delicate, and the sardines in saor were also delicate, which was a surprise considering they're from Friuli, where they're usually quite strong, so if you like delicate flavors, I recommend it! For our first course, we opted for the lake carbonara. It was a substantial portion, not excessive, perhaps a little too peppery, but delicious nonetheless! Highly recommended!

18/08/2025: Beautiful house, excellent welcome, well-kept and spotlessly clean room. Everything perfect

25/07/2025: Clean, comfortable, and well-decorated room. Quiet location, ideal for relaxing. Excellent value for money. We'll be back with pleasure!

10/09/2025: Top-notch food and quality at fair prices. Very friendly and generally excellent service – an insider tip.

10/09/2025: Very good cuisine. We made this our favorite restaurant for a week and ate there every night. A big thank you to the server, Ali, who always made us feel welcome and made us his best customers. Go there without hesitation.
