   Service was really good as well as the food. The homemade breads were magnificent, my pasta was really good and the bread pudding was also delicious. I would probably go back!

   We made a reservation well in advance for 6. We were seated at a table meant for 4, as there were many other tables this size with 4 people or less at them. The table was very small and chairs were put on the outside of the table which put them in the middle of high traffic walk way. This led to us being constantly bumped and made to get up from our seats in the middle of dinner so a stroller could pass. This was very challenging as we had to put things on the floor just to have room to eat. With 6 plates on the table each plate was touching the other plate, as I said very tight. They charged us $18 for bread, which was never mentioned and it was hard, we didn't eat most of it. The waiter was very slow to get anything and we had to flag him down several times to place orders for anything. The folks filling water glasses and clearing plates were pretty good, but not having enough room was very frustrating. The food quality was about what you'd find at a chain restaurant like Olive Garden, with just a few nicer options. Overall disappointing experience.

   The food is absolutely amazing! The service and atmosphere were on point. FYI: if one person orders bread at the table, they charge everyone at the table 3.00 per person. 2 of us are gluten free and couldn’t eat the bread and yet we were charged for it. Not a good practice but the food is amazing!

   Had the best birthday dinner here! Seth was absolutely amazing and helped me find the best gluten free options (there’s a good amount). They have great gluten free bread and gluten free pasta! Everything we had was exceptional. Next time you go in ask for Seth!

   We visited for dinner before heading down the street for a concert and had a wonderful meal. The servers were super attentive and we never ran out of water the whole meal. Food was delivered super quick and was very fresh and was outstanding. The ambiance and decor is overall really nice, my only complaint would be the floor being more of a plain cement which appeared to have some cracks and chips around the restaurant. We will absolutely be back!

   Our servers were good and very friendly. The food quality was poor. I was excited to take my clients to the restaurant for the amazing food. It was very disappointing. The quality has changed since my last visit at the previous location. Cocktails were weak and seemed like the ice had melted too much. Beet salad had very little beets. Rissoto was bland. Pollo was served lukewarm and overcooked. The pasta dishes were better, but not exceptional. Again, just disappointing. Hopefully, you'll improve. Thanks,

   An absolutely delightful experience! I had the pleasure of dining at Matteo, and every moment was exceptional. The food was beyond delicious — each dish bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The ambiance was warm, stylish, and welcoming, making it the perfect setting for a relaxed yet refined evening. And the service? Fantastic. Attentive, friendly, and thoughtful from start to finish. Matteo is a true gem — I can't wait to come back!

    The food was phenomenal, best cioppino I have ever had. Amazing wine list. Brenda, our server, was lovely, she was attentive just enough, knowledgeable about everything on the menu and extremely friendly. We will definitely be back.
