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.

Nous avons passés du bon temps & avons très bien mangé. Le serveur a recommandé des bons vins à prix raisonnable, en plus d'être bien allumé. À bientôt.

We arrived on time for our 6pm reservation which has a time limit of 2h. We finally were able to order our wine after 20min. It took 80 min to get our appetizer & shortly after our main course came & the plate which included clams which were dry & tasteless. Management appeared to ignored a large boisterous group that spoiled the atmosphere. We felt rush despite the delay in receiving our meals when manager started to set up for the next seating.

Bonjour!
En général nous avons apprécié... la nourriture était excellente +++ comme toujours! Par contre côté service, je dois mentionner que le serveur qui nous avait été attribué ne semblait malheureusement pas à la hauteur de ce que nous avons l'habitude d'avoir chez vous... j'étais un peu déçu car le staff fait en grande partie du pourquoi j'adore votre restaurant. & le fait d'avoir été dans une salle plus à part, je crois que nous avons été laissé un peu à nous même. On ne nous a pas offert de deuxième service de bouteille de vin & pas de refill d'eau. Le dessert de la fêter est arrivé avant même qu'une des invités termine son plat principal, & la carte des dessert est arriver alors que la fêter avait déjà terminé son dessert...
Merci tout de même! Je garde quand même le matto dans mes choix préférer! Je me dit que c'est peut être du au rush des fêtes :)

We ordered meatballs & caprese salad to share as appetizers. The meatballs were served without the salad. We waited for 15 minutes when our entrees were delivered before the salad. We sent the entrees back & asked for the salad. Nobody acknowledged the poor service until we complained. The food was delicious but the service tarnished the experience.
