"I’ve been here a few times and the pasta is amazing! The branzino is amazing. Back in the fall I had the best ravioli I have ever had in my life. Consisted of pumpkin ravioli pork sausage and apple. I still dream about it months later. Don’t miss the Tiramisu when you stop in. Great mixed drinks as well. A wonderful place to have a date or enjoy a solitary meal at the bar. I cannot recommend this place enough"

"Top tier restaurant! The staff were nice & attentive. The food is spectacular! We had a couple of dishes and all were delicious. It is great to have San Matteo in the neighborhood!"

"If you like to eat in peace, Sunday night is definitely one of those nights at San Matteo. Modern atmosphere, friendly staff, efficient service, plenty street parking. Prosciutto melon and smoked burrata appetizer were pretty good, but only wish there are more melon came with. The seafood squid ink pasta was on point. Seafood was fresh and flavor was delicious. And don’t forget to try some of their specialty cocktails. Overall experience is a thumbs up ."

"So excited to have this restaurant nearby in the Petworth neighborhood! My partner and I sat at the bar tonight and had a great experience. Ambiance 10/10. They were down a bartender tonight but despite that (and a bustling dinner service) were very attentive! Wine was great, food was incredible - we got the artichoke starter, squid ink pasta and the veal ragu. Can’t wait to go back and try more of the dishes."

"Fantastic addition to the Upshur St area! I am so excited this restaurant has opened up. The food and drinks were great, the service was decent (particularly since we came during their first weekend dinner service), and the ambiance is amazing. We tried a couple of their cocktails which were very nicely balanced and not too sweet. The wine choices are fun (ie unique Italian choices) and tasty too! I’ll be even more excited if/when they add a weekday Happy Hour. For mains, we got the cacio e pepe and the branzino, both of which were very very good and more than enough food for two. The tiramisu was decadent! The price point was very reasonable for a couple rounds of drinks and two mains. Beautiful bar and restaurant - can’t wait to come back!"
