Food service and atmosphere all excellent!. Family style dinner for 50. Shrimp and calamari were especially good

Excellent food and service! The staff did a fantastic job putting together a party for my mom's birthday. Leading up to the party, they were super helpful and willing to answer any questions, as well as provide recommendations for cake and flower vendors nearby. They were incredibly attentive the day of the event and everything went off without a hitch.

Our group of four went to dinner relatively early on a Saturday night and while the place was fairly empty at the start , the restaurant filled up as expected. We were seated in a corner as requested so we had a nice relatively secluded and private space. Our server , Darwin, was so very attentive and gave excellent recommendations for dinner. Zucchini friti and chopped salad were delicious to start and entrees of , chicken paillard ( not on the menu- but prepared by request, and the shrimp special were all delicious. Despite the place being busy we never felt rushed and enjoyed a pleasant evening . We did not leave any " room" for dessert as suggested but will be back again to try some of their delicious offerings. We hope we get Darwin as our server as he is excellent!

Another amazing meal at Matteo's! Branzino was Amazing! So was the cocktail: cosmic twist? Love the stuffed mushrooms, stuffed clams, and calamari and octopus salad appetizers. Waitress was good with recommendations and remembered all our requests. Classy ambiance.

Great food. Stuffed veal chop is amazing! Great weekday night specials. lovely restaurant. Baked clams are delicious

Went to Matteo's I Roslyn tonight. The food and service were outstanding. Our waiter Darwin was so nice and attentive. The Maitre D Herman was also so friendly and made sure we were a happy with the food and the service. We will definitely be back. The restaurant is also beautiful and very clean

What an awesome meal ! We went with the price fixe for dinner. Plenty of food for 39.99. Started with the stuffed mushrooms which were delicious . Had the chicken ultimo which was outstanding . Chicken cutlet in a franchese sauce with hot cherry peppers and melted mozzarella. This dish as a killer. I can't recommend Matteo's enough. We got there early around 5:30 by the time we got our apps the place was crowded.

Been here twice now, once back in Dec. 2023 when they offered Prix Fixe meals for $40/pp. It was the best deal - appetizer, entree and dessert. Choices were about half of the regular menu but very manageable. Last visit was Valentine's Day with my family. The restaurant was 85% full but still lucky I made a reservation. Given the snowfall the day before, it could have been hit or miss. Reservations made on Open Table, super easy. Appetizers we enjoyed: - prosciutto and mozzarella, you can choose 2 or 4 slices of prosciutto and then it's paired with huge cut pieces of fresh mozzarella. Plating wise, wish they had more fresh basil or garnish for color. And the mozzarella portion which was generous but oddly sized. Like balls split into halves. See photo. - grilled octopus with cannelloni beans over greens with vinegar and olive oil. Favorite appetizer of the night. - second favorite appetizer was the meatballs. Excellent sauce. - previous visit I had the baked clams and stuffed mushrooms. Those were good, same breading though so I probably should have ordered differently. Entrees: - veal milanese was delicious. Thin pieces of veal, nice shareable portions, breaded and served with fresh cut up tomatoes and chunks of fresh mozzarella. Again missing some green but it was really good. - mushroom pasta was creamy and rich. Enjoyed this. - Veal Parmesan was again, generous portions. Great sauce. - penne a la vodka with prosciutto, needed more sauce but it was very robust in flavor. This one had parsley on top, gave it a nice finished look. Complimentary bread basket and butter on the table. Nice table setting and when the waitress realized how cramped our table was, she opened up the panels on three sides, to give us more surface area. That made the dining experience more enjoyable. Desserts were also generous in portion. Can't believe that Napoleon was for an individual portion. Totally recommend this place but someone needs to work on the plating to make the dishes just a little extra.

Last night, my dining experience at this charming Italian restaurant was largely a delight, marked by the warmth and efficiency of the host and wait staff. Their attentiveness and genuine care set a welcoming tone right from the start. The pacing of our meal was impeccable, with the perfect interval between our appetizers and entrées, allowing us to savor each course without feeling rushed. We opted for selections from the restaurant week menu, a choice that offered both value and a taste of the restaurant's offerings. Our appetizers, the clam dish and calamari, were promising beginnings. The calamari, in particular, stood out for its size and the light, flaky batter, paired with a marinara sauce that complemented without overpowering. While the seasoning was somewhat understated, a squeeze of lemon juice provided the necessary zing to elevate the flavors. For my main, I chose the Shrimp Luciano, served with spinach. The sauce was a revelation, rich with huge chunks of garlic that infused every bite with depth and warmth. The shrimp themselves were cooked to perfection, making this dish a highlight of the meal. Another dish at our table, the Pappardelle e Funghi, while luxurious with its truffle cream sauce, unfortunately fell a bit flat due to a lack of seasoning. The pasta was well-cooked, and the concept was indulgent, but it missed the mark on delivering the full flavor profile one might expect from such a richly described dish. The wine selection provided a fitting accompaniment to our meals, offering a variety of choices that catered to different palates and preferences. It was a thoughtful compilation that matched the overall quality of the restaurant. Desserts, however, didn't quite entice us as much as the rest of the meal. While not unenjoyable, they didn't stand out as must-have finales to our dining experience. Overall, the experience was a positive one, marked by excellent service and a pleasant atmosphere. The restaurant clearly shines in its ability to create a welcoming environment and deliver dishes that are, for the most part, well-conceived and enjoyable. A few minor tweaks to seasoning and dessert offerings could elevate the experience from good to unforgettable.
