Love the pasta here.. the mixed seafood pasta is to die for. It can get pretty loud and busy in there though. All round tasty dishes, good for a date night/ dinner with friends
***A review for the booiiiz***
-Venue-
“sparkling or still”🙄🙄🙄
The place is nice enough to be considered “date night” and not just dinner, good to know for that nagging gf.”
-Service-
Service was average, not that I care, but your girlfriend might.
-Happy Belly?-
Food was nice but not filling enough for a hungry lad. Could easily smash 2 maybe 3 plates. But at $25-30 per dish, your gonna wanna stop by maccas on the way home.
-Parking-
Free parking after 6pm, not too hard to find 3/5👍🏼

They have tables inside and outside. A soft light create a nice ambience, giving you good vibes. Just a bit noisy because it was busy.
We ordered pizza, they were good but they used dill inside my calzone (I think they mixed it with ricotta) and I really didn’t like this thing! Dill has a strong taste which it covers all the other ingredients and everything taste like it. I ate the top of the calzone and it was so good without the dill taste! I was so, so disappointed because it could have been perfect.
In fact my friend’s pizza was good because it didn’t have it.
Fries were good too.
Excellent pasta in a comfortable, cosy, yet stylish setting in the heart of Double Bay. Short but spot on cocktail list. Definitely will come again
Came here on a Good Friday and it wasn’t too busy so we managed to get seated in the outdoor area with sidewalk seating. The best thing here is the pizza, especially the eggplant parmigiana pizza and it didn’t disappoint. Im usually not a fan of eggplant but i would definitely go for this again. The Oven Baked Girella Ricotta Bolognese Ragu Sautéed was also lovely and is quite similar to lasagne. Would come here again for the divine pizzas.
Loved the chips. Simple but with just the right salt and mayo. The gambi pizza was good but the middle was a little soggy. We also had the lamb skewers. They were ok but I wouldn’t order them again. Dessert they served the chocolate cake cold. I didn’t expect this. I sent it back and asked them to heat it up. They put our half eaten one in the microwave but when it came back it was a lot better. The ricotta donuts were a 9/10. Light little balls of fluff. Perfectly soft on the inside. The creme anglaise was a good accompaniment but the dried citrus fruit surrounding didn’t pair well. It would have been nicer with berries or chocolate and ice cream in my opinion. Overall the food was pretty good and the service attentive.
Amazing dining experience at Matteo! We enjoyed an Italian feast on the outdoor terrace, perfect with the warm spring weather. The food is simple but delicious with premium ingredients and great taste. Will definitely go back for another plate of pasta!
Matteo is one of my favourite restaurants - The staff are so lovely, the food is absolutely delicious and so are the drinks! It is my go-to Italian restaurant.
Highly recommend it to all of my friends.
Absolutely loved Matteo. Trendy & chic ambience with friendly staff. Pizza was amazing! The fluffy wood fire pizza base added to its exquisite taste. We had the prosciutto & eggplant pizzas. Was pleasantly surprised with the flavour. I would recommend Matteo to anyone who’s looking to have a modern Italian dining experience.
Matteo is the new and fabulous authentic Italian experience. Great food, friendly staff and fun vibe. Enjoy the pretty decor feeling like a villa from Positano. The verandah and courtyard are my favourite areas to sit. Enjoy and Buon Appetito!

FOURTH TIME dining here! We love this place - it’s truly the best Italian restaurant around! There is virtually nothing on the menu that they can get wrong!!! The pizzas are to die for, we’ve tried several, the pasta dishes are flavourful without being too rich and the cocktail menu is outstanding! This is one place I always recommend to people to try and they are always happy with service, food and the ambience!
This is my absolutely favorite Italian restaurant in Sydney. We ordered more than 15 dishes every single one was fantastic and well balanced 😍👍all the team and kitchen members were professional and lovely friendly 😊 I highly recommend this place!!
Always a great atmosphere at Matteo. Food was incredible and so well priced. Burrata and the spicy vodka rigatoni the stand out dishes!
Came here with my girlfriends and we really loved the spicy vodka rigatoni and the margherita pizza. Of the drinks, my favourite was the Sweet Mateo cocktail. Would definitely visit again!
Have been a few times now and Matteo's can be hit and miss. The atmosphere is always great but sometimes the service or food can lack. My first experience was faultless and the food was delicious, it is reasonably priced also. But since then there have been things like bringing the wrong orders to the table or Styrofoam in the tiramisu (this was deducted from final bill). I like going to Matteo's but it hasn't been as good as the first time which is disappointing.
Delicious food, broccoli meat pizza was divine, friendly staff and great atmosphere, thanks! If you can, get outdoor seating, it is beautiful in the afternoon
