    The food here is wonderful. The service is outstanding. The daily specials are a little overpriced but the daily menu is diverse. The panna cotta we had for dessert was the best I’ve had outside of Italy. This place can give Walther’s a run for the best Italian restaurant in Utah.

    Nice place for a date night! Food and service were really good! Gluten free pasta was probably the best I’ve ever had!! Enjoyed the espresso martini with dessert.

    Our first visit was in December of 2023. We now have a year long history of consistently exceptional dining at Matteo. The food is delicious, not overly fussy and tastes like love. Cocktails are amazing and I don't have adequate words for the desserts. You should try them all! The staff is super welcoming and engaged (much appreciation to Bruno, Elizabeth and Mirsad, for making it feel like home). The new location has taken things next level IMO and the added bonus of valet parking made all the difference last Friday when it felt like everyone was in downtown SLC.

    Our waiter was over the top with the service ! My daughter has food restrictions and he made her food perfect ! The meal was delicious in every way . The bread was hot and soft and buttery , the special pasta was beefy but delicate , the Caesar crunchy and not wilted !
