I migliori ristoranti di cucina mediterranea in Matera

02/09/2025: The biggest drawback I have is that it's quite hot inside (we went in September, so it'll be even worse in the summer), and they only have a small fan. We had risotto and spaghetti carbonara, which were very good, although what we liked most was the cheesecake; it was spectacular.

02/09/2025: Had an amazing meal and experience here! Ali was our server and took great care of us, offering fabulous suggestions. Highly recommend!

10/07/2025: Great local food and recipes. A good selection of locally sourced and freshly cooked food. Open lunchtimes and dinner. Friendly local restaurant.

25/05/2025: Amazing food, service and atmosphere. Thanks for all the staff 😊

26/06/2025: Every time I come back I am surprised by the atmosphere, the service, the owner's welcome but, above all, by the quality of the dishes offered. Highly recommended

09/04/2025: Con i miei amici gastronomi, abbiamo scelto la Locanda dell’Abate a Montescaglioso per un pranzo fuori porta. Siamo stati accolti con grande cordialità, e lo chef e titolare, il signor Giuseppe, ci ha guidati nella scelta dei vini per accompagnare l’esperienza. L’antipasto di mare ci ha conquistati con il tentacolo di polpo arrosto e le seppie cotte nel mezzo limone, sprigionando profumi delicati e un perfetto equilibrio tra tenerezza e acidità. Il legame con il territorio si è fatto sentire con la cipolla in agro. I ravioli di pesce, avvolti in una salsa di pomodoro leggermente acidula, hanno offerto un contrasto raffinato, mentre i gamberoni in crosta sono stati semplicemente eccellenti. L’atmosfera raccolta, grazie ai pochi tavoli in sala, ha reso la conversazione piacevole e conviviale. Concludiamo questa esperienza domenicale con un plauso allo chef Giuseppe per l’ottima organizzazione e la qualità delle portate. Torneremo presto!

12/08/2025: Very nice, welcoming place, close to the center

11/08/2025: We sat down at 12:00. We were told the kitchen wasn't open yet. We ate at 1:30. The owner was rude. My wife, who is lactose intolerant, was brought a lactose-free pasta dish. But she was so upset she couldn't eat it. We left unsatisfied, paying €47 for three entrees and water. Failed.

31/07/2025: Siamo stati lì in quattro ..una delusione ....x iniziare un piatto a testa di salumi contati con una mozzarella sopra ..una ciotolina con una frittatina una con melanzane e una con patate fatte come un soufflé e un piatto con cipolle e salume tagliato a dadini ..poi un piatto di arrosto di maiale tutto da dividere in quattro anche la pasta mista con funghi ..(non di stagione) il vino travasato da bottiglioni di plastica ...e nel menù c'era scritto misto carne arrosto che non e' arrivato.. peccato xchè il locale e pulito e il servizio è buono ..ma niente peperoni crusca o altro di locale ..il dolce non c'era e x frutta uva sempre da dividere in quattro.peccato...

20/07/2025: Tornerei in questo ristorante perché la cucina è molto buona con piatti della tradizione e pasta fatta in casa. Sarebbero gradite più spiegazioni dei piatti . Menu unico a 30 euro con 8 antipasti molto buoni, un primo, un secondo con contorno, frutta e caffè . La titolare cuoca molto gentile e disponibile a chiarimenti sui piatti.

29/07/2025: The staff was extremely rude. We came to eat with a party of 7 who were running a few minutes late. I arrived first with my sisters. We were told the kitchen will be closing in 15 minutes so we asked for menus so we could order for the whole party. The restaurant manager told us that we “can have the menus if we want” but we “cannot” order till the rest of the party arrives. A few moments later when my brother arrived and made the same request, the manager was instantly politer and agreed to take the whole party’s order. Later on in the meal my father had to take a phone call and moved to another table to be to talk in peace in an otherwise empty restaurant. Our waiter interrupted his call and scolded him for making an additional table “dirty” and how he will have to clean it “because of him”. The food was absolutely excellent but the terrible service unfortunately ruined our experience.

19/07/2025: Very beautiful place! Food was a four..local cuisine and a large selection of wines Service was a two-plus. Waiters rarely came to the far hall. Dishes took a long time to be brought out. And dirty plates stood on the table until the next dish was served. The gentleman who offered a selection of wines..looked very arrogantly (although the wine we took was not cheap).

02/09/2025: We dine at Morgan in Matera, or an extremely warm welcome was reserved, a careful team has advised and served. The quality of the meal was beyond our expectations, we spent a great time out of time, in a beautiful decor. Thank you to the whole team

31/08/2025: Excellent food! Very tasty pasta with truffle and perfectly cooked talliata! The waiters were very kind and helpful! Thank you very much!

02/07/2025: Siamo stati alla Latteria dietro consiglio e…gran consiglio!! Abbiamo mangiato benissimo. Taglieri, spaghetti san giovannino, guanciale di vitello, tagliata, formaggio alla piastra. Tutto buonissimo. Se andate a Matera alla Latteria non sbagliate.

23/05/2025: Zeer verfijnde keuken. Alles zeer lekker! Vriendelijk personeel, vlotte bediening, gezellig en rustig straatje! Goede prijs/kwaliteit. Een aanrader!

01/09/2025: I've been there several times, the place is nice and the service is good, I found myself a little disoriented because they changed the menus I was used to a bit, they were convenient because there was one in particular that allowed you to try all their specialties without taking the whole plate now you also have the option of trying some appetizers obviously the price has changed considerably while the quality of the food however has remained the same.

01/09/2025: Everything was excellent, the owner and staff were attentive, very fast and the food was excellent, local goodness, delicious broad beans and chicory, ancient flavours that are not forgotten.

20/07/2025: It was an excellent lunch; we ate on the terrace, which has a beautiful view. The dishes were good, especially the peppered mussels and the first course (strascinati with sausage, Matera bread, and crusco peppers on a caciocavallo cream that was out of this world). The ingredients seemed high-quality. My only complaint: the service was a bit slow. Good value (also considering the very central location).

13/07/2025: I returned to Kappador after some time away, and I can say that the experience was even better than I remembered. We dined on the terrace with a view, in a truly enchanting atmosphere. Everything was impeccable: attentive service, carefully prepared and flavorful dishes, quality ingredients, and a presentation that demonstrates care and passion. I found a place that had grown, improved in every detail, without losing its distinctive authenticity. An evening with friends that turned into an experience to remember. Congratulations!

27/04/2025: Delicious dishes, welcoming atmosphere and very, very nice place... I recommend it... even my 3 children liked it and ate everything!

24/04/2025: La cucina è veramente sublime, i piatti ben eseguiti, da non perdere il Manouri con i fichi caramellati e il loro Polpo! Il vino? Incredibile! La selezione è vasta e i proprietari sono esperti e passionali. Ma ciò che rende questo posto veramente speciale sono i proprietari stessi: gentili, accoglienti e con un gusto impeccabile nell'arredo. L'atmosfera è piccola e dunque calda e invitante, perfetta per una serata speciale o semplicemente per godersi una cena. È un'esperienza che vi lascerà con il sorriso e la voglia di tornare presto. Cinque stelle senza dubbio!

19/08/2025: Poor quality food, high prices, dirty bathrooms, disappointing service.

17/08/2025: Excellent! A magical place in Matera, nestled among the Sassi. A fairly large terrace overlooking the old town. They have a beautiful private museum carved into the rock; a visit is highly recommended. Very good food with local recipes and dishes. Excellent service. Fair prices.
