    Simply put... the best ristorante Italiano in Salt Lake! No, the best restaurant in Salt Lake. The food is incredible, but beyond that, the service is unpretentious, welcoming, and most gracious. Matteo and his staff make you feel like you are dining in Italia.

    Another outstanding experience at Matteo. We were celebrating our friend’s birthday and our waiter made it the most memorable and beautiful evening. His suggestions were perfect and added so much to our meal. He even sang happy birthday to our friend in Italian and has the most incredible voice. The entire experience was amazing!

    The staff and service was above and beyond sadly the braised beef was very very dry. Whipped Brie is a must!

    We had a great Christmas Eve dinner and we all got different things and everything was excellent. They have a great wine menu of Italian wines and they are very knowledgeable about them so they can explain which ones will be best suited for the meal.
