"I had a fabulous experience at Matthew's. The staff was kind and checked in with us frequently but at appropriate times. The food was delicious and didn't take long to prepare at all. It came out hot and looked appetizing. It's a cute quaint restaurant, not too packed, music is nice and not too loud. This is a new favorite!"

Came with Mr. for my birthday dinner no reservations available but luckily we got seated upon arrival. The place was too tight as it was crowded but we enjoyed the hustle and the full occupancy made the place more warm and comfortable. We were starving so ordered mushrooms and clams to begin with. I don't know why the mushrooms looked burnt see picture but they tasted soooooo good! Highly recommend those!! Clams were good too. Then we placed the order for the mains but it took a long wait for the order to arrive. Can't blame them as the place was too full!!! By the time the order came, we were starving so thankfully the food was good. Pasta with shrimps was light as Me. wanted and my spaghetti was spicy as per my taste! The portions were huge so we had to get those packed. We were eyeing our neighbors dessert , the cannoli looked yum but we had a huge quantity of coconut cake waiting at home so we had to skip ordering dessert I wish it was true that calories don't count on your birthday! all in all a tasty end to my day
The complimentary bread came hot, which I so appreciate. This was for a business dinner of 9, and while a little cramped, the food was excellent. We had a couple of appetizers to share, which were generally all good. The mushrooms in particular were stuffed with something that I think I really liked. Stuffed mushrooms Hot antipasto Calamari I got the seafood linguine, and this was excellent. Big portion size with tons of well-cooked but not overly cooked seafood. I couldn't finish it and wish I could have taken it to go. I had the tiramisu, and the flavors were delicious although not my favorite tiramisu. The texture of the ladyfingers were more like cake, which some might like.
I've eaten here twice.. nice small family italian restaurant with outstanding homemade meals.. had Veal Parmigiana, would have taken a photo if i hadn't inhaled it in 5 minutes !!! Service was good , not too nosy or intrusive with the right amount of information.. my wife had eggplant meatballs and artichoke bisque soup.. it was very good for her ! Also had side of angel hair with red sauce that was just like mama made for me as a child . Highly recommend this place. No reservations unless party is over 6 people and parking is tight but well worth the trip for an authentic italian home cooked meal..
Matthew's is my husband's favorite restaurant and it's ironic because he typically doesn't enjoy Italian cuisine. The owner is always there when we attend and always makes a point to say hello and ask how service was. For dinner, the restaurant is dimly lit which adds to the romantic, serene ambiance. For small parties, they do not take reservations but we always choose to wait because our experience dining at Matthew's is always terrific!
