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.

This was our third time at Il Matto. Once again the service & food was excellent. The Burrata appetizer was fantastic. My pasta dish & my wife's fish were definitely on point. We'll be back on our next trip to beautiful Quebec City.

The food was spotless & we congratulate the kitchen & chef for that! The staff was helpful, it only felt uncomfortable that the waiter would only look at & speak to the man in the table, not the woman. At last, the time between entree/appetizer & the main meal was a bit too long. I understand the restaurant has a big intake of guests & runs in a fast paced environment but the connection between staff & guests was missing. Thanks for the amazing meal!

Personnel sympathique. Restaurant très bruyant. On s'entend à peine parler. Choix de musique questionnable pour un resto italien.

Bonjour, Nous avons une tradition pour la fête de ma conjointe; Passer une fin de semaine dans le vieux Québec & aller manger de la cuisine Italienne.
Comme vos 2 concurrents (que je nommerait pas) afficha complet, nous nous somme dit: essayons un autre endroit.
Bien je dois vous dire MERCI pour cette belle soirée du 16 juillet à votre restaurant. Belle ambiance, bon service, plats chaud, gouteux & généreux, beau choix de vins.
Alors il me reste qu'une chose à dire: on se voit l'an prochain. Bon été.
