    Food was good, but we were sat in a dark corner and forgotten about for most of the evening. Service was poor. We had to wait a long time for initial service, as well as our final check.

    We always love San Matteo. We recommend sitting in the back if you want pizza—being near the pizza oven means you get it as soon as it comes out of,the oven
