Ristorante Soul Kitchen S.R.L.

Had a great meal at Ristorante Soul Kitchen in Matera. The food was really good — we had ravioli and tagliata, both were delicious. The house wine was also excellent. For dessert, the tiramisu was outstanding, definitely one of the best I've had. Highly recommend it!

The real best restaurant in Matera!! We had the delicious tasting antipasto and the tris of pasta ane they were big portions, fresh and well-cooked by the famous chef Linda who is so kind and lovely as we had the chance to meet her in person! The location of the restaurant is perfect and the best choice you can do if you want to have an italian characteristic dinner in Matera!!

The Spaghetti Crusco and Pollo al Limone are good. The restaurant looks like a cave and creates a beautiful atmosphere. They charge 3 euros coperto for each person.

We visited this spot around lunchtime, and while the food was delicious, it seemed they were a bit understaffed. Given that we came in a large group, the service was understandably slow, as we may have outnumbered the staff on hand. We enjoyed traditional Matera pasta, a flavorful beef dish, and finished with a delightful panna cotta for dessert. Each dish was well-prepared and truly captured the local flavors. Despite the slower service, I appreciated the cozy atmosphere and the quality of the food. Overall, it was a pleasant experience—just be prepared for a bit of a wait if you’re coming with a big group.

We had delicious lunch of antipasti, fresh pasta and absolutely fantastic dessert. Especially amazing were the cannoli, which were the special of the day. The service was outstanding, best we had on the trip. Thank you very much!

We stumbled upon Soul Kitchen by chance, and it turned out to be one of those great surprises you end up telling friends about. The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff friendly, and the menu, well thought out and full of personality. We had pasta, and it was delicious. Simple, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor—the kind of dish that reminds you why Italian cuisine is loved worldwide. But the real twist came with dessert: panna cotta with pepper and orange oil. A bold combination that actually works. If you're in Matera, this place definitely worth a visit. Great food, warm vibe, and just the right amount of creativity on the plate.

We spent over a week in southern Italy and this restaurant was by far the favorite of our meals! Our bed and breakfast recommended it to us and I’m so glad they did! The service was great and the food was amazing and so unique to the area. Highly recommend including this restaurant in any trip to Matera!

Fantastic food for a great price. The ravioli's tomato pesto sauce bursts with flavor while the cavatelli meat ragu's more subtle taste blends perfectly with the pasta. Fantastic, earnestly friendly service in a delightful setting. Highly recommended.
