    What a great way to end 2024!! Fabulous drinks, food, and service! The new location is gorgeous, and fortunately, the food remains first class. Our server, Lucus was great...stayed on top of everything, keeping us updated on when food would come out, etc. We started with the whipped brie, one of our faves. I had the Aglio e Olio, which is a must try if you haven't had it. The hubs had the Risotto Modena, which is also fantastic! Thanks for a great start to our great evening!

    Our first trip to the new location, very nice and quieter than previous location. The food and service is still very good! Highly recommend it to newcomers who have not ever been to Matteo’s before.

    We were seated immediately upon arriving. It was our first trip to Matteo - but won’t be our last. The food was amazing. We agreed that the Contadina salad was the best salad that either of us has ever had. The Gorgonzola dressing is the star. We also had the lasagna and salmon, which were excellent. The service was spot on with Lucas being very personable and professional. I’m sure that this was just the first of many meals at Matteo.

    There for dinner while skiing w my son in Park City. It was definitely worth the trip down the mountain. One of the best Italian meals I’ve had…and I’m Italian! My son summed it up well. ‘That was the best meal I’ve ever had’ as we walked out of the restaurant. Authentic, simple, great mix of flavors and exceptional pasta.

    New location is even better. Matteo is still clearly involved - he was checking people in at the front. Seth was great as our waiter.

    Simply put... the best ristorante Italiano in Salt Lake! No, the best restaurant in Salt Lake. The food is incredible, but beyond that, the service is unpretentious, welcoming, and most gracious. Matteo and his staff make you feel like you are dining in Italia.
