We were a large group of 14. The staff made every attempt to accommodate and set us up in this…read morerestaurant in beautiful Matera. Our experience was simply put: Sublime. The restaurant has English speaking staff. In fact, I believe they are capable of communicating in over four languages. This is a typical Italian restaurant, with a charming, friendly and very approachable staff. Something uncommon in other parts of Italy.
Our primi included this wonderful pasta, followed by our secondi with steak seared with peppercorn and other spices, showered with arugula and truffles. Our desert was exquisite, and the local wines were incredible.
A healthy combination of ambiance, helpful and friendly staff, and proximity to attractions is certainly the reason why I would give this restaurant 5-stars. This is an A+ location and a must visit while you're in Matera.
