08/08/2026: A delightful place downtown. I asked if they had vegetarian options, and they were very accommodating in modifying some of the dishes on the menu, eliminating the meat. I had an excellent first course with creamed asparagus, caciocavallo cheese, and crusco peppers. Excellent value for money, even my omnivorous friends had a great time. Highly recommended.

18/08/2026: Chic and welcoming location. All the dishes were incredible!

02/08/2026: There were three of us, and we ordered three pizzas: two with Lucanian sausage and one with Lucanian sausage, fried zucchini, and Leccino olives (Altra pizza). This review is based on real experience and seeks to highlight both the positive aspects and those that, in my opinion, deserve improvement. I'll start with the best aspect of the evening: the dough. It was decent, well-leavened, and cooked properly, with a well-developed crust and a pleasant texture. The addition of chia and poppy seeds adds a unique touch and a subtle aromatic note that distinguishes this pizza from many others. It was also cooked evenly, and the crust was nice and dry. Unfortunately, however, it's the quality of the ingredients that significantly changes the opinion. The Lucanian sausage had a strong and pleasant flavor, probably the pizza's best ingredient. The rest of the ingredients are a different story. The Leccino olives were the real disappointment of the evening: they were flavorless, of modest quality, and incapable of delivering the intense, slightly bitter flavor expected from this variety. Rather than enhancing the pizza, they ended up compromising its flavor balance. The tomato sauce also didn't convince me; it was slightly acidic and lacking in harmony, tending to overwhelm the other ingredients instead of binding them together. The mozzarella, moreover, seemed of rather ordinary quality, lacking flavor and a texture that didn't convey the sensation of a fresh or superior product. The fried zucchini, while an interesting idea, failed to deliver the added value expected from a gourmet pizza, also because the other ingredients weren't up to par. Ultimately, I got the feeling that this pizzeria has created a good dough, but it should invest much more in selecting the right ingredients. When you offer a pizza with ingredients like Lucanian sausage, customers expect high-quality, well-matched ingredients. In this case, unfortunately, the dough was the only truly convincing element, while the toppings and ingredients didn't live up to expectations. Three stars are deserved for the dough and baking, but overall it was a disappointment. With higher-quality ingredients, this pizza could take a significant step up.

17/08/2026: The Van Gogh restaurant impresses with its unique ambiance, being located right in the fascinating historical area of ​​Matera. We ate an excellent pizza, well baked and tasty. The service was ok, the staff was friendly and attentive to details. Tip for tourists: The terrace is perfect for enjoying the food in an authentic setting. The bathroom is clean, impressive for the tourist traffic. The evening atmosphere is special, and the prices are affordable for such a popular area. Definitely worth a stop!

14/08/2026: Restaurant/pizzeria in the center of Matera, not inside the Sassi. It's located in a small square where you can admire the spectacular Sassi of Matera from the balcony. Convenient parking nearby. Delicious pizza and truly special staff.

10/08/2026: The quality, quantity, and price ratio were more than excellent! Friendly and helpful staff. Clean and welcoming atmosphere! Thank you for everything 🩷

10/08/2026: I went for dinner during my recent vacation in Matera: a restaurant serving excellent, traditional Lucanian cuisine with generous portions. The prices were very reasonable, generally lower than other restaurants in Matera. The staff was friendly and willing to explain and recommend dishes. Excellent. If there's a downside, it doesn't have an outdoor seating area, which can be pleasant in the summer.

05/06/2026: Nice, well-kept place and excellent pizza, I will definitely be back.

28/05/2026: We ate pizza in the little square, very good, well-topped, unique, average price, excellent location.

16/06/2026: A very appealing restaurant with excellent food. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere very pleasant. Although it's located near a road, the traffic noise is barely noticeable. There's ample parking, the location is convenient, and the landscaping is lovely. As mentioned, the food was delicious. The price-performance ratio is reasonable. Overall, it's highly recommended. My only suggestion for improvement: there's no printed menu available on-site; it can only be accessed via the website, Google, or Google Maps. This means you have to access the menu on your mobile phone to view it. I've seen menus accessed via QR code before (which I personally don't find ideal either), but this was even more cumbersome. We found this less than ideal, especially since it also caused problems loading the page. Without a mobile phone, it would have been impossible to view the menu. Perhaps a chalkboard or a poster would be a good compromise, so that the menu isn't exclusively available through Google. Hence the one-star deduction. ... Otherwise, it's a really nice restaurant with very good food and wine. There's a great selection of dishes, so there's something for everyone.

23/05/2026: The food and service have improved significantly, as has the location. The pizza, meat, and other dishes are delicious. The service is fairly quick and the price/quality ratio is good. Highly recommended!
