Brought my family for my husband, mom & dad's birthdays & we had a wonderful experience! Our waiter Patrick was wonderful, the food was delicious per usual & the wine recommendation was spot on! Can't wait to come on our next visit.

The food & wine were amazing. Everyone besides our server was fantastic. Our waitress was horrible & impacted our evening's enjoyment. She wasn't very pleasant. We had to catch her eye several times for water, & we had to order another glass of wine from someone else, & she made it a bad experience. I am unsure if I would recommend Matto or return after our experience.

What a wonderful find in Quebec City! The food, drink & ambiance was incredible. I live in QC but my family comes from Italy. The food & wine selection is on par to anything I would eat & drink in Venice. I must also mention that the service as excellent. Our server, Theo, was knowledgeable, attentive & most important, personable. We will return to the restaurant not only for the food, but also for the excellent service we received from Theo!

I found Matto searching online, the reviews caught my attention. Matto was amazing. We are foodies & always searching for the next fabulous meal, usually dinner. We traveled with our friends from Barbados for their first time in Quebec. They frequently dine back home at incredible restaurants. They enjoyed their meal at Matto;s, immensely. Our only complaint (I dislike the word complaint) was it took a bit too much time for our waiter to take our wine order & receive it. You know when the wait is a little too long when you're searching for the waiter. I believe, most people want to receive their beverage fairly soon after being seated (10 minutes) perhaps. To sip on a great wine, enjoy the surroundings & cheer the end of a great day. I am not familiar with Italian wines. Good wine descriptions would been a bonus. A good description helps you to imagine the taste. The same with food descriptions. The ingredients describing a food item helps to imagine the taste, then once in front of me, I eat with my eyes. Would I return to Matto, HELL YA.
