    We loved out special dinner at Matteo! The food was excellent and the service top notch! Host Seth and our server Cecilia were wonderful and Mirsad was such a joy; his beautiful voice and kindness made for a birthday celebration to remember!

    We had a disappointing experience. 12 minutes after being seated, I had to go find someone to send a waiter to our table. Then we waited 35 minutes for our entrees. The burata was tasteless, my filet was very average for a $54 steak and my partner’s pasta was cold when served. We had to send it back and it took 10 minutes to come back. So I had to choose between eating by myself or waiting for a $54 steak to cool. Also, the GF designation on the menu only means it’s available as GF…but you have to ask. To their credit, they comped the pasta, but it was still a bad experience. We won’t be back.

    We had a great experience! I was there with a first time date and both of us had a great time. My date speaks Spanish only, I only English, and the waiter spoke both so it was great! The Seafood soup was beyond fantastic!

    Best Italian we’ve had at a restaurant in Utah ever. I come from an Italian family and we make our own ravioli and gnocchi and such so for us to be impressed means something. My 90 year old Italian grandma loved it, too. Definitely coming back! Mirsad was our waiter and was fabulous, provided great recommendations, and was very responsive to our needs. A lovely evening!
