About

Matto crafts an authentic Italian experience centered on the art of traditional pasta and artisanal pizza preparation. The kitchen utilizes high-quality flour and imported ingredients to construct complex flavor profiles across a diverse menu of regional specialties. Patrons observe an open environment where the mechanical precision of pizza ovens dictates the rhythmic flow of the kitchen. Every plate serves as a testament to classic preparation techniques, favoring bold textures and fresh seasonings over unnecessary ornamentation. The structural integrity of the handmade noodles provides a consistent backbone for rich, balanced sauces that define the culinary identity. This establishment maintains a rigorous focus on the fundamental pillars of Mediterranean cooking, ensuring that every served dish reflects a commitment to simplicity and technical mastery in every bite.

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.

Vraiment excellent. Nourriture goûteuse, cuisson parfaite, service impeccable, quoi demander de plus. Ce n'était pas notre première visite dans ce restaurant, nous y allons environ une fois par année en tant que touristes du vieux Québec. Cette fois-ci aura été comme chacune de nos présences, soit excellente. Si vous cherchez un restaurant italien avec de l'excellente nourriture, ma conjointe & moi vous recommandons Matto. Il y a quelques années, avant la pandémie, nous avons emmenés trois couples d'amis dans ce restaurant. Tous trois ont été unanimes, soit excellent. La salle à manger est un peu petite mais la nourriture & le service dans ce restaurant sont beaucoup mieux que d'autres restaurant italien plus gros que nous avons visités durant notre séjour d'une semaine dans le vieux Québec. Certainement un restaurant à considérer si vous aimez bien manger.

Resto pour touristes, j'avais l'impression de revenir dans les années 90. Les blagues du serveur, la bouffe & même la musique.

Tout était parfait, hormis un petit manque de communication à l'interne quand nous avons téléphoné pour avertir de notre retard. Mais pour le reste, tout était impeccable ! Merci !

I had dinner there with my husband. The cocktails were a good size & the service was good. We had the calamari to start, which were very good. They were crispy, tasty & the aioli was a delicious compliment. My husband had the agnelotti which were good. A little rich but seasoned well & tasty. I had the lasagna, which was only okay. While the meat sauce was good, the lasagna itself was made with thick pasta noodles, which were undercooked & luke warm. The price was on par with the other restaurants in the area. If you go, order anything but the lasagna & I'm sure you'll be satisfied.
