    Our waiter was not very attentive. We sat on the outside patio for Mother’s Day. We did not get a hello or acknowledge it was Mother’s Day. Took forever to give us water, take our drink and food order, never asked if we needed anything. Other than that food was excellent!

    Lovely Mother's Day Brunch with the family. Appetizers (especially the wasabi tuna) were delicious. Drinks were yummy. Our Server, Peter, was a laugh riot! Very pleased with our choice!

    Been going to Match for nearly 20 years and it has always been one of the, if not the most consistent restaurants in Fairfield County - which speaks to why it has lasted so long while other places have come and gone. Worth the trip just for the steak tartare and carpetbaggers!

    So delicious and always consistent. Everything we ordered was so good. From the starters to dessert, even the cappuccinos - this is why we keep coming back.

    Match is a great choice for dinner or an event in SoNo. The location, food, service, and vibe are all first rate. We particularly enjoyed the cocktails, the Wasabi Tuna, and the Apple Crisp. Chef Matt Storch's team is on point, with attentive but not overbearing service. It is easy to see why Chef Matt is a renowned, successful, and accomplished chef (Chopped champion, among others). His hospitality and talent are a winning combination. We will definitely return to Match!
