Food was lovely. We were looking for something outside of the pasta and pizza norm and this place did not disappoint. We did end up getting one pasta dish but it was fabulous. Every dish was absolutely delicious and presented well. They have a beautiful garden seating area as well.

We waited 1h30 they didn’t served us the main course . No explanation from the service just like « sorry ». The tuna tartare wasn’t even fresh . Waiting 1h30 in half empty restaurant with waiters not even doing something is scandalous. Expensive for no reason I don’t recommend at all it’s totally disrespectful for a « « fancy » » place.
Dear customer, thank you for your review, which, although negative, is an incentive for us to grow and improve constantly. What happened with your table is very serious. I can only apologize both for the incident and for the fact that you were charged for the appetizer without asking me anything, which shouldn't happen since your experience was negative due to our fault.
If you would like, and consider it as a small gesture to further apologize, please message me privately and I will be happy to refund the portion of the dinner that you paid. I hope you can understand my words and accept my apologies.
Regards
Stefano

Delicious fresh fish, seafood, and oysters. I thank the chef and the staff for gifting us a very memorable evening. It was a date night done right. This is our favorite seafood restaurant in Rome now.

We enjoyed a beautiful meal at Matermatuta, seafood creatively conceived and artistically presented. Mine was octopus with mango/chili sauce; my wife's was red snapper/fish of the day.
