Matteo's of Boca Raton

"Mateos has always been a favorite of ours. The food, as always, was excellent. The service last night, however, was beyond disappointing. For a party of four, our courses either didn't arrive together, with long waits in between, or were not complete. At the end of our meal, when our server asked how everything was, we told him we were very disappointed and why. His only comment was "it wasnt my fault." I hope it was attributable to a packed house for Valentines Day. We'll give it another try, but if this were to happen again, we wouldn't go back."

"Eh. Special 85th birthday party of 10 people from all over the Eat coast arrived for a wonderful lady ruined by management's demand we leave in 2 hours. At 7:30, we were effectively told to remove ourselves because another party needed the table-- no offer of coffee or dessert or aperitif. Cleared our plates while two guests still eating. Then brought the guest of honor a cake and the check came moments thereafter."

"Very cozy atmosphere with dining also outside on patio. My waiter was amazing they are fully staffed so no waiting on water or table to be cleaned."

"Went there with our adult daughter to celebrate her birthday. They have a very large outside seating area and it was nice sitting out there. We ordered two skinny margaritas that had to be returned because they just did not taste good. Got wine and a cosmo and that was good. The arugula salad was split between five adults and it was enough for all of us. Only complaint about that was that the arugula was a little soggy. Maybe it wasn't so fresh. We also got a large order of baked clams which is 12 clams and all the people who are them said they were very good. We got the meatballs as a side dish for the two kids we had with us and they were just amazing. They come with three meatballs so we adults shared the ones that the kids didn't eat. Chicken parmesan and veal parmesan dishes were delicious. Burnt broccoli was very good too. For the birthday girl they gave us a platter of desserts which were amazing and a huge sparkling candle on top and sang happy birthday. This is the place to go to celebrate with your family for a birthday. The staff there is amazing."

"We had a family dinner at Matteo's with cousins from Long Island. What a great choice. Free valet parking in the garage next door. Seating inside and out. A bright and open atmosphere welcomes you inside. The paintings on the walls are all thematic of Love. Beautiful colors everywhere. The bar sits around 10 people, with TVs to checkin on sports. Matteo's definitely has its regulars, and they expect to find an open seat when they walk in. Lots of hugs and handshakes from staff members abound. Matteo's regulars are wealthy families from Boca or Palm Beach who are loud and boisterous. Everyone dresses to the nines when they come to Matteo's so be sure to wear your best. There's plenty of live entertainment with Frank Sinatra and Tony Bennett style songs throughout the evening in the dining room. The staff was warm and charming. The calamari and artichoke appetizers were delicious. For our main course we had chicken francese, chicken parmigiana, and veal parmigiana. The portions are gigantic, plan on bringing some home. But I can confirm that the leftovers are dynamite the next day. If you want to enjoy a delicious dinner in a beautiful setting surrounded by warm company, visit Matteo's. You won't be disappointed"
