Review Summary

Matto offers a vibrant and authentic Italian dining experience in Quebec City, widely praised for its flavorful pastas, fresh seafood, and signature meat dishes like veal and beef cheek. While many guests rave about the warm atmosphere and the exceptional, attentive service provided by the professional staff, some visitors note that the restaurant can become quite busy and noisy, leading to tight seating arrangements. Although the vast majority of experiences are highly positive, with many diners considering it a must-visit destination, a small number of reviews mention inconsistencies with dish preparation or speed of service during peak hours.

1.5 hre avant d'avoir notre assiette principale. Les gens des autres table pres de nous sont arrivé apres nous & avait déja manger leur dessert. J'au dû me plaindre a notre serveuse. Finalement mon assiette est arrivée. J'avais commandé le veau marsala qui était beaucoup beaucoup trop cuit. Pour toute ces raison je ne retournerais pas à ce restaurant

Très bon restaurant, les scaloppine al marsala étaient délicieuses. J'ai beaucoup aimé le tartufo au chocolat comme dessert & la parmigiana comme entrée.

Food & service were excellent, except for a slowdown when dessert was ordered. This will be a stop whenever we are in town.

Nous avions hâte d'essayer ce restaurant mais celui-ci nous a déçu par une bouffe italienne très ordinaire: bruschetta pas assez assaisonnés sur pain brûlé, minestrone très mijotée, spaghetti di mama avec beaucoup de boulettes & peu de spaghettis, lasagne di mama très ordinaire. Pas le goût de rester pour le dessert & même pas pour un cappuccino & ce, malgré le sourire & la gentillesse de notre serveuse. La réputation de ce restaurant semble surfaite.

Fantastic, fresh Italian with a fun, high energy atmosphere. We shared fried calamari appetizer. My husband had veal scallopine, which he loved. I had amazing papparadelle with mushrooms & white truffle oil. The pasta was paper thin & perfectly done. Good variety in the menu. Nice options on wine list. Good value. Portions were very generous, so sadly we could not fit in dessert. Our server Mary Soleil was very efficient & friendly, even offering suggestions for the music festival in town at this moment. The manager was attentive & all staff seemed very on point. Very nice dinne
