Great wine! Best cheese pizza! What more do you need? Very welcoming to my annoying family and bratty kid. Matt and the crew are fantastic hosts! It's a fine dining experience in a casual dining package. Absolutely love this place

I could KICK myself for not discovering this place sooner -- don't make the same mistake! Matteo's checks all the boxes, great atmosphere, professional and friendly staff, outstanding food. I fully intend to make up for lost time and go back as often as possible.

Our group of 6 all seemed to enjoy the Matteo culinary experience, including the very attentive wait person.

Nice staff, but the rave reviews on flavor are unfounded. Their pizza was equivalent to Dominos in every way, not impressed. We're disappointed too because they're just down the street, it would have been nice to have a new place to go...

What a great experience. Our first family dinner out, since Covid. We were seated outside. Lovely patio area, distancing was good. I had salmon, cooked to perfection. I also tried the ribs, delicious. The cocktails were crafted and yummy. The staff was attentive and gracious. It was great evening.

Took my son for birthday dinner. Loved the tree covered back patio. We shared small arugula salad and crab cakes to start. The salad was perfect size for us and like the crunch of the pistachios. The vinegarette was just right acidity. Crab cakes had nice chunks of crab and were crispy on the outside. I had the lobster ravioli with crab and my son had the filet mignon stroganoff. The ravioli were good but could have used some lemon zest to brighten up the rich cream sauce. Little crab in the sauce. Son had not complaints about stroganoff. Seems that the entrées were cooked too soon and held under a lamp as the plates were extremely hot and there was a skin in top of the sauce of both dishes. Maybe timing was off. All in all an enjoyable meal. I'll be back.

We enjoy Matteo’a burger and Matteo’s pizza! My daughter’s favorite. Cheers!

Patio is such a nice, relaxing hidden gem. Went here for a Saturday lunner and a drink with the family. Wasn't terribly crowded outside. service, staff and food were great. Tried the garlic and cheese stuffed bread round. Delicious! Blackened shrimp salad was very good, too! Kid friendly and overall a pleasant experience. Have been here a few times now and will definitely be back more!

Beautiful back patio dining, staff are all masked, attentive and brought water bowls for our dogs!

Little cosy place to eat outside, around nature. Pizza is very good.
