Matteo's is hands down one of the most authentic and memorable Italian dining experiences I've had in a very long time. From the moment you walk in, the ambiance transports you straight to a cozy trattoria in Italy--warm, inviting, and just the right amount of elegant.
The service was impeccable. Every member of the staff was friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without ever being overbearing. It's clear that hospitality is a priority here, and it made the entire night feel special.
Let's talk food. The house-made focaccia with garlic butter? Unreal. Fluffy, warm, perfectly salted, and that butter... I could've eaten a loaf and called it a night. But then came the cocktails--crafted to perfection and balanced beautifully. Whether you like something classic or want to try something unique, their cocktail menu delivers, and their wine list is extensive!
We started with the charcuterie board, which was a gorgeous spread of imported meats, cheeses, olives, berries, nuts, local honey, jam, and a super yummy chili oil. Every bite was thoughtfully curated. For mains, the filet was melt-in-your-mouth tender, cooked to a perfect medium rare, and seasoned just right with a beautiful sprinkle of fresh Parmesan around the plate. And the Aragosta--absolutely divine. Fresh lobster, mussels, claims, and shrimp in a silky, flavorful sauce over house-made pasta. It was decadent without being heavy, and honestly one of the standout dishes of the night.
Matteo's isn't just a dinner--it's an experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just want an unforgettable meal, this place should be at the top of your list. Bravo, Matteo's! We'll be back again and again. (And again!) Maybe next time we will have room for one of their amazing desserts.
